Mountain View Middle School

Here is a quote from my daughter, a student who has attended AHP for 3 years: "This the best school ever and I love going here and I make a lot of friends." We've had a great experience at AHP despite the low score. As a former public school counselor, you can't pay too much attention to these scores really, at least not the low ones.

My child said they had awesome memories from Chehalem. Teachers are kind, cooperative and organized. Students are generally kind, bullies won’t bother you if you mind your business, but they will make fun of you. Average amount of kids in each classroom but kids can interrupt or be distracted easily. The food is honestly good. Very fun events, field trips, and experiences. 10/10 would recommended

I used to go to Hazeldale elementary around 2006-2012, and passed my entire 6 years in elementary at the school. I have started and graduated from school in the BSD. Back then, it was a lovely, quaint school with a great and caring staff who communicated with parents, wanted to see their students succeed, and placed the well-being of the children above all else. I am disappointed to say that this has drastically changed for my niece and nephew who we just recently had to PULL and TRANSFER from the school due to negligence and cruelty on part of the staff and other students. My nephew has been relentlessly bullied on the bus, and the school has done little to nothing to stop it. His sister has had to step in on multiple occasions to defend him because the adults around them will not. He had items stolen from other children that the school nor the families have replaced, and he has received actual, visible injury from the altercations that occur on these instances. On top of this, recently on parent-teacher night, his teacher had no kind remarks to say about him, nor did she care to visit with his mom for the full allotted time she was supposed to. She only spent the time insulting him and putting him down in front of his mother, and started their meeting late. She spent the time criticizing his academic performance rather than creating a plan to fix it. While I understand the stress that teachers face as both of my teachers have taught in the BSD for decades, it is also pertinent to treat the students who are struggling with respect and care so that they do not slip through the cracks. My nephew has ADHD is known to be hyperactive, but he is also incredibly smart and sweet. With the teaching and harassment he has received this year, his self-esteem has never been lower. The school could not care less, nor could his now former teacher. This is not a place I would ever consider sending my children, as they no longer care to foster an environment of learning for children with ALL types of needs as they should. I am so sad to see that this is what the school has become after myself and my siblings all had wonderful experiences there in years past. Now we are left to pick up the pieces of damage that the faculty member has caused, as well as the neglect on behalf of the school with my nephew’s bullying situation. I can only hope that no other child faces these circumstances, and the school can learn to care more about its student body.

This is our second year at Errol Hassell my kids love going to school. All the teachers, staff and volunteers I met are doing their best to support the children and help them grow and learn.

This is our family's first year at Life. We came from a different private Christian school in the metro area and were looking for something a bit smaller and for teachers who truly were passionate about what they do and who care about the kids. LCS has been all of that and more. Our kids love coming to school (we have an elementary and a junior high student) and the projects they do are teaching them real life skills. I love seeing the joy teachers have and each student is truly known. They have a new set of curriculum this year for language arts and math in the elementary that has been great for my little one.

Extremely disappointed with the administration at Faith Bible Christian School. Despite claiming to uphold Christian values, they failed to follow their own handbook policies around discipline, student support, and safety. We witnessed racial discrimination, unfair targeting, and inconsistent disciplinary actions—students of color were treated more harshly than their peers. Even more disturbing, multiple reports of sexual harassment by parents and students were ignored or dismissed. Families who raised concerns faced retaliation instead of support. This is not a safe, equitable, or accountable environment. Until leadership takes responsibility and prioritizes student well-being, they will continue to fail the community they claim to serve.
