Waiakea Intermediate School

Worst school ever involved with. Bullying is not dealt with appropriately and instead a child who has a normal reaction to the chaos and bullying allowed at this school gets punished and ridiculed. There are also projections of personal issues from staff members dumped on the child and their families. The family is then left to carry the burden and trauma of the issues created at this school and then the school expects the child and family to just disappear with no accountability on the part of the school. Some teachers are demeaning, unprofessional, and often there is so much chaos in certain classrooms that makes it very hard for a child to feel safe, relaxed, and comfortable here. And it causes so much confusion for a child to have to deal with all of that and then be made to feel like it is all their fault. Children are not allowed to express themselves freely here which causes them to have to absorb all the negativity they encounter on a daily basis until they can no longer handle it. And then they are traumatized even more by being punished for needing to release it all. Staff members also have no respect for a child or families personal boundaries.

My granddaughter is going to second grade this year and she loves her school and teachers. The parent who said homework was coloring pictures, school just started and the teacher needs time to adjust to 21or 22 students give me a break how did it go on after a month?

I love this school and would definitely recommend it to parents with kids in PreK through high school

St Joseph School is a great school that shapes students into becoming the best examples. Students are taught discipline and respect. The family centered education and small class sizes create an optimal environment for excellent learning.
