The uniform policy is very strict. The recess teachers always complained. The teachers are either kind or have a terrible attitude. Teh counselors don’t really care about students mental health. Also the lunch looks unedible.

The teachers bring down their own students and discourage them. When I got bullied at this school, the teachers and principle completely ignored it and only focused on what the bullies h

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWorst school ever! Take your child out of here. Principal is quite irresponsible and teachers only protect him, people here show a face of being very kind staff, but in reality they cover their faults each other, without caring if it affects the student. Don't be fooled by their fake friendliness and be careful.Parent Review5y ago - Calmeca Academy Elementary School
