The Heights Community School

Great school that give a unique public school opportunity for kids to learn a new language!!!

I am someone that use to go to Academia Cesar Chavez and i loved my time there the teachers were kind the staff was kind the councilors were kind and i loved learning there. Family was really big there and they made me feel apart of them and the school and people there will always have a place in my heart.

The teachers care a lot about the kids. The students are generally kind and hard working. The school is lovely. There is a wonderful garden in the courtyard where kids can read and learn. Nokomis is a great place to be!

Rating of 2, I won’t back down this year tried getting transferred to other schools in our area on the waiting list!

Frost Lake is a hidden gem of a school! Some of the best school staff I've ever met. We had two children attend there. One who required intensive accommodations for mental health disability. The school works so hard to build an inclusive and welcoming community for not just students, but also families. Both our children were treated with care and respect. Our daughter is a 6th grader now and wanted to go back to visit the other day. Her second grade teacher instantly recognized her and was so warm and welcoming. She even asked if she could come to one of her volley ball games!

MPA was an amazing school to learn and grow up in. I felt thoroughly prepared for college and the experiences I was afforded at MPA gave me the confidence and executive functioning skills to be successful in college and for my career.

Terrible school. DO NOT BRING YOUR CHILDREN HERE! They feed them week old food, same thing every day, the food is inedible some days. They teachers are rude, and uneducated. The science teacher is not a science teacher. The "baccalaureate" is not in fact a baccalaureate. my kids went there for 4 years and never learned any Spanish while taking it every year, or music either. They think putting on a movie in Spanish is teaching. The teachers are mean, uneducated, overworked. They do not grade papers, They do not correct the kids when they get something wrong on an assignment, which in turn makes them learn NOTHING. My kids are so far behind after spending years there and i feel so bad for the kids still remaining in that school. It needs to be shut down. Contact the superintendent if you haven't already if you have kids attending this school. This principal needs to be held accountable, and where is all the funding going? it is surely not going into the school at all. Also they do not have security in their parking lot. They have an older teacher directing traffic and no one even asking for proof of identity when picking up the kids. don't even get me started on the front staff. DO NOT BRING YOUR KIDS HERE.
