Arlington High School

My son attended Pre-K 4 2025 August 13th and August 14th when I went to pick him up on August 14th at 3:30 p.m. I was unable to find anyone that could point me to where he would be released at after meeting with the officer on school property I was notified by another parent that my 4-year-old was wandering down the street four blocks over. I ran to Big Street which is one block over and sure enough three blocks down was my 4-year-old wandering crying, scared and disorientated. I picked him up and ran back to the school where I was informed by the principal that their policy is to release any student that is a walker and have them escorted by a teacher one block down and released regardless if they are 3 years old, 4 years old, kindergarten, first grade, second grade, and so on. I'm now attempting to file a police report and I have submitted a grievance to the school directly. This is absolutely true and I'm in disbelief with the principal's attitude that somehow it was our fault because we didn't have a car to pick him up in. So he was labeled as a walker. Not once was the principal concerned with the fact that they had a 4-year-old. My 4-year-old lost almost five blocks down where he could have been abducted by a predator attacked by a stray dog or hit by traffic

Fui a la oficina a firmar un documento de mi hijo y cuando sali de la oficina le dije a mi hijo que nos fuéramos. Mi hijo agarró par de legos y en ese instante una señora que estaba en un escritorio le dijo que esos legos no eran de él que ahí los dejara. Cuando salimos me acordé que yo le había comprado unos legos hacia par de días. Volví a casa y efectivamente si eran los mismos que la señora le quitó a mi hijo. Tuve que volver con resibo en mano a por los juguetes de mi hijo. Me dio demasiado coraje porque esa señora no tuvo el tacto de lidiar con un niño fue nadamas como para acusarlo y hacerlo sentir mal. Esta escuela carece de buenos líderes, todos en esa escuela tienen tendencias a dar órdenes gritando. Creo que están impuestos a tratar a los padres como les da la gana y que nadie les diga nada.

This school means so much to my heart. My son had a few problems last year and they were the kindest, most supportive team. The teachers, principal, assistant principal, counselor, even the front desk staff…every last one of them were there for my son and our family. I’m forever grateful. Educational, my kids have grown and they’ve had excellent teachers thus far. Many parents are involved in the PTA, my children feel safe, and parents are consistently informed of what is happening, educationally and socially.

My kids when to this school and i love how teachers and staff our in communication with parents my kids love this school.

Aside from a younger grades teacher constantly yelling at her class to shut up, it’s a really good good school. I love the officer that’s on duty all day and the front office lady with the grey hair is very polite and helpful. Parents aren’t too involved and this place has a new set of teachers every year which is weird.
