Glen C. Taylor Elementary School

I used to go to that school, and my teacher didn't do anything about my bullies

Both of my kids go here, and one is going to middle school. They love the staff. They go above and beyond. Kinder was a hard adjustment, and they were always patient and there for my kids. I would highly recommend this school. The principal is amazing. She really does try to make the school feel safe and welcoming, and the kids love her. Best School in the area :)

This is my daughter's first year, not in private school, so we were a little apprehensive about enrolling her at Twitchel. Our experience has been nothing short of amazing! The majority of the reason is because Miss Christina Garcia is an absolute angel teacher sent from heaven! She really cares about all of her students. She's very communicative and we always know what's going on in the classroom with our child. She even makes the kids feel special by implementing fun Friday! I know my daughter looks forward to it every week. Last week they even got their nails done! The amount of care That has gone to teaching the kids in this first grade class, is just amazing. If it wasn't for Miss Garcia, I think our experience would be much different. We are so grateful for her!

My daughter is in 3rd grade and it's her second year at Gehring. She is very happy and excited about going to school, especially the GATE (Gift and Talent Education program). The school provided lab top computers to bring home and do projects on. They have Virtual Reality glasses to wear in school to learn about science. In one of my daughter's projects was to draw a fictional character based on the teacher's description through reading and have the kids enter it into a drawing program in the computer to make it "alive". At the end of the project is to have the character print out by a 3-D printer. My daughter is excelling in school, and she is very happy to go to school every day. In addition, the school provided free hot breakfast and lunch every day with a meat and vegetarian choice. I also fell the school is very safe without any bullying incident that I know off. The school has a parent and teacher meeting once a semester to go over the child's progress. They also have a website called infinite campus to see all the test scores, and over all test grades. I feel like they really do care for my child's education and well-being. I would recommend this school whole heartedly.

I am writing to formally express my deep concern and disappointment regarding the unsafe conditions at this school. Due to a series of unacceptable incidents involving my child’s health and safety, I will be withdrawing them from this institution immediately. My child has life-threatening allergies to animals. Despite this, the school property is poorly secured, allowing wild animals to wander on and off the premises. Furthermore, staff or visitors regularly bring pet dogs onto campus. As a direct result of this exposure, my child has repeatedly returned home with severe allergic reactions, including a persistent runny nose and dangerously swollen eyes. The quality of the school meals is consistently poor, with food being served either raw or burnt. To ensure my child had a nutritious meal, I began sending them to school with a packed lunch. However, my child was targeted by bullies who stole their food, leaving them to go hungry. When I brought these bullying incidents to the school’s attention, no corrective action was taken. The lack of supervision during meal times and the failure to address my child’s safety concerns are inexcusable. A school should be a sanctuary for learning, yet the environment here has proven to be hazardous to my child's physical and emotional well-being. I expect a formal acknowledgment of this complaint and an explanation as to how these safety gaps will be addressed for the remaining students
