My son was previously homeschooled k-3, so this is coming from an adamant "homeschool mom" who was…read moreterrified to send her special needs son to brick and mortar... I cannot recommend this school enough. There is just not enough praise given for the accommodations and considerate teachers and the staff at Parkside Elementary. My son attended Parkside for 4th grade, his teacher was incredible and worked alongside him with his extra needs, she encouraged him to challenge the limits and expectations that came from his special needs. Mrs Holland made sure that my son did not feel out of place or like he didn't belong even while respectfully and willingly accommodating his 504. The open communication from his teacher was frequent, transparent and comforting. The process of getting my sons 504 in place was made so much easier with the teamwork of all of the staff, making sure he had everything he needed while recognizing where he should be challenged along with places he may struggle, They made sure that every teacher/staff member that worked with him knew of these accommodations, so it was never a struggle or something that I had to continually fight for. Anyways - if you don't want to read the whole review, just know - **The school is incredible. It is very clean. The staff is very accommodating with any kind of special needs. The teachers are down to earth and are there because they have a heart for it.** I absolutely recommend Parkside Elementary School.

My wife stood up to the Principal and was publically mocked for doing so. I have talked to the Archdiocese of Portland regarding this. Don't know if anything will be done. One can afford a full-time tutor for the cost of this school and have your child academically challenged. Next year there is a different Principal. Hopefully that one is better.

The level of education exceeds that which my children were receiving in public school and the dedication of the teachers and staff is unbeatable.

We had spoken to our school nurse before the trip and they were ALL aware of my child's dietary needs. I would not recommend this camp to other families. Starving children while in your care is absolutely unacceptable. None of the food we packed even had to be cooked, they simply withheld it from my child.

Some classes provide college credit or can be used for various certifications, others are just plain fun. One of the latter is the winter snow ecology course held on Mt. Ashland involving a trek on snow shoes, building a snow cave and looking for the tunnels of voles and other winter-active rodents.. Another fun "class" was the sunset photo hike to the summit of Mr. Elijah starting with a walk through wild flowers and pitcher plants and the drive partly up the mountain then a walk through forest, meadow, past an alpine lake and ending with a magnificent view of the Siskiyou Mountains. Did we see the ocean on the far horizon? Some said yes, some said no. Several classes are family oriented and there are also special ones for school groups and for teachers. For those who need accommodations at Sema, there are yerts and a camping area, or a few miles away, some motels.

(I'm not just saying that because it was her idea and she paid too LOL) we didn't even get to go outside because they close it if it's over 100. The outside looks really fun and I know my kids would have enjoyed it as well. We had a great time exploring all the different stations. They liked the nursery and water station the best. I like how there was lots of stations and endless play for creativity to spark! We had a great time as a family spending the afternoon here. A great way to escape the heat but bring a jacket because they keep it cold! just mom and gma felt cold not the kids... Everything was clean and the staff was friendly too. They were helping clean up toys as well. It will be nice to see how this place grows!
