Templeton Elementary School

My children went from being model students in the classroom, helping & even reminding other students of the class rules to now they complain DAILY about being bullied and are apparently disruptive and now also starting issues with other students. No it’s not okay for them to act that way but everyone has a breaking point and this is a very drastic behavior change since switching schools. Now “meetings” & “discussions “ about their behavior are happening but I’m not being included or informed about any of these discussions. I only know because I asked for a meeting & was told I have to wait till they do their meeting. Like … what?! I do NOT recommend this school. My youngest was even tackled by a student TWICE his size and sent home with bruises on his face.

The learning atmosphere is very good, the teachers are serious and hard-working, and the competition among students makes their project exhibitions very exciting, just like professionals.

Avoid this school if possible. I’ve had one struggling learner and one non-struggling learner attend this school. Both had terrible experiences. My daughter with an IEP was not provided services and I was lied to about it. She received zero support from her teachers after several attempts on my side to beg for help. Multiple principal and assistant principals also refused to ensure she learned. My other daughter disliked summit because there are multiple fights a day and it was chaotic. She was humiliated a few times by teachers. The culture is just toxic and low income students are blamed instead of adults taking responsibility.

This is a great school, teachers are very nice.

I came to study at this school all the way from Bangladesh, this school has changed my life and I would not change anything about my High School experience even if I could.
