Posted by a parent on 5/21/2018My 2 girls have been at Hellyer for two years, this will be the third year. I am beyond happy with this school. The staff is amazing and goes above and beyond, and the effectiveness they have at teaching our kids and making them not only retain, but get excited about learning is amazing. If you want
Posted by a parent on 8/31/2017Staff and teachers are great! Teachers work together, share ideas, and help, dedicate time to their students ! And they do it because they are teachers who live their jobs and students!
Posted by a parent on 8/8/2017At the surface, this is a really good school. My daughters have been in 1st - 3rd and K - 1st grades. Curriculum is good. Safety could be an issue. There are cases of kids picking on other or smaller kids. Kids will argue and push each other around, but I think of a lot of that comes from the

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe principal is rude and doesn’t help at all. The social workers are not helping either. This school I don’t recommend to parents and kids it’s horrible and my daughter had a problem there 2 years ago and they never did anything. Both of my kids had a horrible experience at this school.Parent Review9mo ago - Los Arboles Elementary School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAll 5 of my daughters attended voices. Voices used to be a great school until Hugo became principal. It’s as if all he cares about is shoving LGBTQ down kids throats. Our daughter is in 6th grade and at a 2nd grade level. How they kept passing her and didn’t bother to tell us she had issues is beyond me. They would always say how obedient and sweet she was but left out the part that she was behind academically. I hope voices gets a qualified principal and staff in there and brings back the potential the school once had. Bring back the mandatory belts and structure back to the school!! We will be sending our daughter to another school next year and our son WILL NOT BE ATTENDING this school unless things change!Parent Review4mo ago - Scholars Academy
