Um overall the 3 principles are horrible at this school I would just like to say some of my most…read morefavorite teachers were ''Ms.McDaniel ,Ms.Tracey ,and Ms.mays two of those 3 left the school honestly it's so heartbreaking but I will have to get over it.k once had A fly in my muffin and they refused to let me Take A picture of it and instead they threw it away and gave me A new one. Some staff will push you to your breaking point will you will shut down because of it and it gets so overwhelming. If you want your kids to suffer and get overwhelmed then send them here it is also A open concept school.and also when smb told them About A boy assaulting my friend they did nothing about it but when your fighting they wanna care all about it you cannot trust some of the staff here as well have A nice day. Ny'arie from iLead signing out peace.

This school is horrible I used to go here in September, and let me tell you it's horrible…read more Cons: The school is open concept (open concept means there are no walls or doors that separate the class) because of this kids are allowed to just walk into the class and talk to their friends, its also really hard to concentrate because it's loud and there is no walls, so you hear into other class rooms. The schedule is all over the place. When it's lunch time the students have to wait for the other grade to finish eating. lunch starts at 12:50 you eat at 1:15 The kids are all over the place. The kids are bad kids, they talk and cuss the teachers out, and they wander out of class. Because of this the school is really strict, they are obviously scarred/hurt. At the middle school orientation we spent hours going over the rules, and even when school started on the first 2 days they went over the rules in every class. The food is HORRIBLE! You might think im exaggerating but like the food here is wtf! Its gross, disgusting, despicable, trifling, ridiculously dumb, just horrendous. its like they got the lunch from behind a dump........... The bathrooms are clean but, the feminine products dispenser is always empty Pros: The school has a lot of activities/opportunities for the kids. Like at the middle school orientation they said that they will have field trips, chemistry, dissecting sharks and stuff like that.The electives are cool too, i signed up for art first semester and makery second semester, its amazing! The teachers are nice But other than that, the school is still trash. Overall my rating is one star. And since i moved my friend still has to suffer within those gates without me

Only problem is that the parents while dropping/picking up their kids should be more aware.. Seems like its their first day of driving. In other words they need to focus on kids crossing!

This should be known as the bully school with adults who allow it to happen. My son has been…read morebullied from week one&nothing was done except words of, "don't do it, that's not nice".

I will never recommend this school to anybody.

I write this review with a heavy heart. I truly wish I could leave separate reviews for the…read moreElementary and Middle School programs. Because I can't, I'm giving an overall rating of 3 stars. The elementary administration and teachers are outstanding and absolutely deserve 5 stars. Unfortunately, I can't say the same for the middle school. While the introduction, meet-and-greet, and initial impressions were wonderful, only one quarter in and things feel chaotic and extremely disorganized and unsafe, not from external but internally. It functions more like a public school with one added Bible class. Some students frequently fight--or as their discipline coordinator calls it, "roughhousing"--and there seems to be little control over students' language, so constant cursing is simply tolerated, pushing each other, hitting each other "playfully" is okay and if your child is in the crossfire or yourself "oh well".

Just avoid this hell hole..

We are beyond grateful to have found Desert Montessori Academy in Palmdale. As parents, it means…read moreeverything to us to have a school where our son is allowed to be a child--to grow, learn, and develop at his own pace rather than being pushed to meet arbitrary "standards." The environment at DMA is nurturing, respectful, and truly centered around the individual needs of each student. We've seen our son flourish not just academically, but emotionally and socially, in ways we never expected. The educators here clearly care deeply and treat each child as a whole person, not just a number or a test score. If you're looking for a school that honors the natural curiosity and uniqueness of children, we cannot recommend Desert Montessori Academy enough.

I absolutely love Desert Montessori Academy. My daughter has been attending for just under two…read moreyears, and the growth I've seen in her has been incredible--especially socially. She's really opened up and become so much more confident. She adores her teachers, and I genuinely trust and appreciate them as well. Every day, the kids engage in hands-on, imaginative activities, which I think is so important. The small playground is a great bonus, too. Overall, the environment is warm, welcoming, and truly trustworthy. I'll definitely be enrolling my second child when the time comes. Thank you, DMA!
