I rate this school a 9 out of 10

This is such a terrible school ! Avoid sending your kids to this school. Kids get bullied constantly and the principle does nothing to avoid it. I don’t understand why she’s a principle if she’s not willing to help students and parents.

Tulare City School District has given me less faith and pride in my community than I would ever have imagined possible prior to having school-aged children. While asking teachers throughout the district what they can be sure of concerning Tulare City Schools, each one has stated that it is a game of politics. I have come to believe them. The district administrators seem to be driven by money and power. Teachers are overworked and resources scarce as a result. Higher salaries for teachers supplement sufficient working conditions, leaving my children to pay the ultimate price. How is this leveling the playing field? My children are losing out on an education which builds 'confidence' and 'creativity' because teachers feel they need to cut corners in order to get through the day. Education serves as the foundation and building blocks of the community. I'm not so sure what our community is building anymore.

All of my three kids have gone to this school. We all love it and miss it very much. I love all of he Wilson teachers and their attention to all of their kids at school. I would have loved for my kids to stay there but I tried another school in Tulare and I did not like it at all. They are in Visalia now but I they are coming back. See you next school year Wilson. God Bless you all the time!!!!

My kids have been attending Cypress for the last couple of years. They love every aspect of this school, from the great kids to the administration. Mr Bates has made a wonderful impact on this school and it shows in how happy the kids and teachers are.

It was my child's first year on campus and due to COVID there was not much on campus access, so it is hard to rate the school in its entirety. However, I did have easy access to the teachers. TK teacher was great! She was friendly and communicative. The Kindergarten teacher did not communicate as much and was not to approachable but was available and responded via the square app. There was not much opportunity for school involvement, again because of COVID, so hopefully as things improve that will no longer be an issue.
