University High School

Horrendous school for a child. The principal Donald Vega comes across as friendly but he’s not wanting to help the children. He doesn’t care about what’s best for them. My son cries every time he has to go to this school. The bullying is out of hand and the teachers do not care if the children learn or are struggling. These teachers only want to quit and don’t want to be there. The teachers rushing the kids to do the school work instead of helping them understand. The open house was a disaster, every year the principal before Donald Vega was so kind and considerate for parents that work but this year 2025 he chose to start 1:30pm right in the middle of the day. So many parents couldn’t go, so heartbreaking that here comes a new principal Donald Vega making changes for him. He also has a breakfast for ONLY fathers smh, not every child has a father but he’s arrogant and doesn’t care about this community. I will never participate and support a breakfast that is ONLY for fathers. Be careful with this school, if he’s the principal., save your children from this school. The children and parents need to be supported.

My child is attending this school for 3 years now we love our Bulldog family teachers are wonderful.

Great school with amazing team. My daughter loves her school teachers and the class. It has a welcoming atmosphere that makes everyone feel part of one big family.

I was so excited for my child to start this school only for me to have to pull them out after a few weeks. I have a *very very* well behaved child that also excels in school. With that said…ugh…Recess was almost non-existent, no talking in class, no talking in the hallway, no talking at lunch. There was very little fun or socialization to be had. Recess when not skipped lasted all of 10 min or so because the teacher didn’t want to be outside. There is no play equipment for older kids.My daughter tipped her chair back on two legs and the teacher told her she had to sit on the wall at recess. She has *never* gotten in trouble at school and this crushed her. She started have anxiety attacks at home and during the day at school. I later found out that she was being ignored and mistreated daily by her teacher. (Who ended up leaving the school a month after starting). The kids were given no study materials for tests. All of the children were failing their tests with my child having the highest failing grades. I asked for resources and was told there were none.Besides the bad teacher, I had rude and cold interactions with several of the staff…I’m pretty bubbly and didn’t understand this. My husband had the same experience. I saw the red flags at the open house when the principal was standing at a distance trying not to talk to parents. I ended up pulling my daughter out a few weeks in. She was so stressed and I could see her little light dimming. I was not rude or confrontational with anyone at that school— I was met with an attitude at the front desk upon leaving. I would not recommend this place to a single person. It’s like a military school. I hope they find a great leader for the school—it has a lot of potential.

Mi hija tiene desde Kinder y ahora está en tercero y estoy encantada, todas las maestras que le han tocado son maravillosas, mi hija nunca ha tenido quejas y siempre esta feliz con sus profesoras y todo eso se ve reflejado en sus notas... Tuve una situación con un estudiante (un malentendido) y el colegio actuó super rápido y estuvieron abiertos a toda ayuda lo que me da totalmente confianza en la seguridad de la escuela. Apreciaria que tuvieran mas extracurriculares y que la cafeteria fuera mas grande porque los niños cuando tienen eventos casi no caben en el escenario... Pero es una gran escuela...
