Roy O. Andersen Elementary School

We are very thankful we pulled our children away from this Pseudo Jewish School, it caters to non-Jewish people who are not interested in Judaism, only focuses on admissions to hyper competitive colleges. If a TVT student gets behind, he or she loses Judaic Studies to keep up with hyper competitive children. Administrators do not take Jewish children as priority, in fact, more than half students there are not Jewish, it is a misrepresentation to call this a Jewish school, celebrating other culture's holiday months long opposed to one day, check out their auditorium wall in February and on. The over offered non-Kosher food selections. Needless to say more, beware!

Bullying is a huge problem at OLQA. The school administration has the outdated policy that a school staff member must actually witness the bullying (which is ridiculous since the bullies aren's stupid and won't do it in front of a staff member) to even begin to address it. The victims of the relentless bullying have no recourse but to leave school. The bullying is especially bad in grades 4 through 8. The school doesn't even have an anti-bullying program. It is not a safe place to send your children.

A beautiful gem of a school in the heart of Orange County. The teachers are top-notch, the facilities are great, and the community is electric! So thankful my children attend NCS!
