Martin Luther King Jr Elementary School

This school isn’t horrible, but I don’t recommend it. I used to go to this school, in the middle of the year, one of my manipulative friends gave me super bad social anxiety to the point I would cry everyday, begging my mom to stay home. Once I tried to get help, the therapist sat with me everyday, but did nothing to help it get better. When I had a long term substitute, I had asked to go to the therapist because I was having a panic attack, but she would refuse to let me go. I started to cry and had to get my mom to come. The substitute said she said yes and lied to my mom about saying no and refusing to let me get the help I needed. The substitute also was rude to me every time I asked for help and to go to the therapist. The staff never helped me separate from my friend, they don’t really care if you’re getting bullied or about your mental health, and just let it happen. The staff is overall boring and too strict. They do not make learning fun in any way. The principal gives me a weird vibe. If you run into no problems, it’s your safe but boring school. but if you run into problems with bullying, problems with friends, they just do not care. Wouldn’t recommend if you run into problems a lot.

This is an amazing school over the last few years. The staff is amazing, and many parents try to get their kids into this school. The school has won awards from the state in academics, dual language and the school climate has also been awarded recognition. The Principal team of Doug Kaplicky and Jose Contreras have rebuilt an incredible culture for parents and students.

I fell in love with this school four years ago when I enrolled my children. It offers a strong, supportive community, with wonderful teachers helping children learn and grow. Overall, growing in our faith through the school has been such a meaningful experience. 10/10 would recommend.

The worst school anyone can go to.
