When my Children first started to attend school here I thought it was a great school. The teachers here are pretty amazing just depends on which one your child gets.The principal use to be good but now I don’t know what’s going on with him. He really doesn’t do much if your child is getting bullied,
Posted by a parent on 5/14/2022When we started our son at Stipe in 2019, we had our concerns and because of this we got involved in his class and in the school. We've gotten to know the principal (Vern Caruz) and many of the other teachers on a first name basis. As we got to know the teachers and staff, we realized that this scho

Posted by a community member on 5/6/2016With the new principal at the school this year, I saw a lot of new progress. She's very engaged and involved in everything that goes on at the school. Lots of passionate, hard working and well-liked teacher at the school too. They strive to keep communications open with the parents. New PE and music
Posted by a parent on 12/16/2013My oldest was a student at Stipe and enjoyed the years there. He is in High School now. My youngest just started (2013) and so far so good.

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe former staff are great but the new one are unfriendly and inconsiderate. Well everything has change. Im glad they didn't accept my kid i was upset at first because he has been in this school since k-2 suddenly idk why he was assigned to another school. I talked to the disctrict about it and they said it is up to Anderson school if they accept him. From what? he is always been in anderson school even though thier reason is “out of range” googled map it it is closer to my residence than the other school that my kid that they accidentally assigned. I dont understand this people. “Out of range” huh! My kid been attending this school and it is out of range!Parent Review1y ago - G. W. Hellyer 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
