The school is good. The teachers are good in their field of line and are fun to talk with.

We liked what the focus of the school was SUPPOSED to be. Emphasis there on supposed, since it…read morereally failed to follow through on presenting the valuable STEAM (Science Tech Engineering Arts Math) opportunities we had been looking forward to. Music was pretty much non-existent. Art was just someone visiting the class once a month. We figured the first year or two, they might be developing, since it was a brand new school. But chaotic leadership changes and a lack of the specialty programs promised was extremely disappointing. Then the pandemic hit. And, even in the second year, they had an abysmal program that was not at all cutting edge, which you would think a Science/Tech school would be on top of. We ended up moving to CAVA for that second year and were SO glad we did. They definitely had their stuff together, since online is exactly what they have been doing all along. I was even more happy that we left STEAM when we did, as the year students returned there was a huge problem with bullying and behavior issues. Still looking for a strong in-person program for my soon-to-be middle schooler. But, definitely glad we left STEAM. Would have LOVED it if it had lived up to its promises.

My daughter attended delta charter online for 4 years. We loved it and the staff and if we had any…read moreissues it was handled very promptly until her last year there. It seemed like a great school until they completely screwed my daughter out of her chance at getting in to any college or university. She was given classes she didnt need and when her teacher left the school we were never notified until several weeks later. During those weeks her assignments and tests were locked which meant she couldnt move on until the teacher unlocked them. Since the teacher wasnt there anymore, my daughters emails to her teacher went unanswered. Several weeks later i received a phone call from her new teacher introducing herself. Assignments were FINALLY unlocked after the new teacher figured out how to unlock them. All the time my daughter wasnt able to do her assignments and test showed "idle time" which meant she wasnt doing work like she should be. She finished the year then decided to go to in person school for her sr year. We found out when we requested her transcripts for her new school, that her grades on her transcripts and her gpa were way lower than they should have been. Shes emailed and called the school several times and the last time received an email from the "principal" that i cannot believe would ever write like that to a former student asking for help resolving the issue. Shes a joke like the rest of the staff has become. They all have always been so kind and helpful until the last couple years. We have a couple staff members that have remained helpful to us and have said theres been several changes in staffing that have caused the changes in rude staff members that dont hold up to the same standards that they used to. My daughter has been denied several admissions to universities and colleges specifically listed as it being her jr year gpa which was not her fault. Admin is a joke there. For my daughter to reach out for help and basically be told its her fault and be told off by the principal, is ridiculous, embarassing, and sickening. This is her career. Her entire life put in hold due to a power tripping principal who should not even be in her position

This is an amazing school for students. The staff is always so helpful and is really focused on…read moremaking the kids succeed and be happy with being here. It's with great pleasure to watch all the students and learning about their experiences. I love having students return explaining how they are thankful for this program and how it helped them graduate.

This place was also known as the Lathrop Annex. Only K-2 went to school here then 3-8 was at the…read moreLathrop Elementary which was just only down the street. I really miss this place. I remember last year when i was driving pass this place, I noticed that it wasn't even Lathrop Annex anymore. Most of the portables were gone and all that was left was the "Office". I just couldn't believe it. Was it because 2 other schools opened up in Lathrop too that they needed to just downsize by just putting K-8 in Lathrop Elementary? Anyways, I remember getting in trouble here a lot and getting sent home for all the wrong reasons. One for sticking out my tongue at the teacher LOL. The other time was when I was digging in the sandbox and for some reason there was some boy behind me too that as I was digging, all the sand was going in his yes LMAO. He should have known better not to go behind me while I'm digging in the sand. I used to be Student of the Month all the time. I miss going to the book fair which was my favorite. We used to always get those book catalogs and would always have to buy something since back then I loved reading. Another thing I loved was the annual carnival that they used to have here usually during the month of May. They had cotton candy, lots of bouncy jumpers, a rock climbing wall, and other good stuff. That was one of the things I used to look forward to when I attended the annex and the elementary. I met most of my best friends here. We all attended the same elementary and the same high school. They were the reasons why I loved going to school. Overall, this place had so much memories.

Since Joseph Widmer doesn't have it's own Yelp, my review for them is here. Do not send your kids…read morethere! Staff doesn't care and most teachers don't care. I'm speaking for myself and other parents I've talked to about this school. My daughter came home crying and extremely upset because her teacher decided to tell the class the tooth fairy wasn't real they needed to stop believing in magic! Idk what is wrong with her but glad she is no longer influencing my child. My daughter was a different person before going there, her self esteem has gone down a lot. And worst the staff doesn't even care to find out what's wrong to make it right. Unacceptable.
