Park Trails Elementary School

This review is based in my personal experience. This school gets the good scores thanks to the parents who in their majority support the kids learning, many even pay tutors for the kids to excel and get good grades in the gifted program along with the work of the good teachers who provide a healthy environment for the kids to learn. The principal in turn is always pushing up sending emails through the teachers. The school has a few very good teachers who are a bless for their students and it also has some bad teachers that can be a real nightmare for the kids and families. They have one particular teacher who was very mean and verbally abusive, she psychologically abused my kid for 3 months and I had to do all in my power to get my kid removed to another classroom. The school did not do anything to correct that teacher and it’s my understanding she is still there, so be aware. The bathrooms that the kids use are always in need of toilet papers so if your kid has to do #2 there is nothing to clean their butts. The ladies at the front office are all nice and respectful. The school love to collect money from the parents so they have lots of activities through out the school year to get the money. They say it’s voluntary but they do pressure the kids to make their parents do the donations. In four years that my kid was in this school we had 3 different principals so make your own conclusion.

My son has an IEP and is on the spectrum. This school has helped him excel and flourish. The staff is great and kind. The parent involvement is great in this school. Also the events they host make my son proud of his school he loves to invite family and friends. I encourage all parents looking to select a school that is built on kindness and caring.

Mrs. Sierra (the principle) is always present at arrival and dismissal. I see her constantly talking and engaging with the kids. Love this school.

Heron heights entire staff should be replaced! If you are fortunate enough to have your child be assigned to a good teacher , you may be ok! Administrators need to go, they have no concern for your request for your child to be transferred to a qualified teacher.
