If you have a child with special needs, you're better off home schooling your child, and then sending them here. I the special-needs classroom aids have no training they watch a video and that's it in The training has nothing to do with dealing with special needs children. They are not properly trained lifting student who are wheelchair bound, changing diapers, handling special needs children emotions sensory needs. You have to check your Child after school every day to make sure that none of these staff members have put bruises or scratches on your child. your child will get 10 minutes of English and 10 minutes of math, and the rest of the day is a free-for-all. Are the special-needs class, but as a parent, you have to give a month notice to be able to sit in the classroom with your child . The principal Kelly Gilbert is an idiot any problems that occur she tries to sweep under the rug. She will not hold her aids accountable for doing anything wrong. She'll make you as a parent feel like you're crazy she needs to be fired or needs to be re-trained, and not be a principal. Gen Ed is just as bad. These poor kids are being taught things, and when you ask them what they've learned at school, they tell you they don't know, and the playground babysitters are bullies and make the kids walk laps or sit down during their recess and lunch because they are kids and they are loud and they mess around and play around after sitting in class for hours.

If I could rate this school 0 stars I would do so without doubt. If you want your child to be…read moreconstantly bullied and have NOTHING done about it, then this school may be a good fit. Disruptive students aren't being held accountable for their actions and are allow back in class to continue harassing students AND teachers. God forbid your student try to defend themselves; they will demonize the victim. The principal high turnover rate is cause for concern and paints a picture as to how trash this "school" is. Why can't Lemon Crest retain a principal? Protect your child/ren by NOT enrolling them there!!!

Nor did she tell us. Parents found out when the state removed the teacher from the classroom, in person. Sandra, "Sandy," hid this on purpose, then had a yard sale to cover the fines.

The abuser of my child was seen on that campus less than a week ago. She's not supposed to be there.

They really care about the students education. We have been too 2 other Christian Schools with my older daughter due to moving reasons, and never felt compelled to write a review, until now, so that really speaks VOLUME for this Christian School in my book. The program offers part time school (Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday) Home School on Monday and Friday's. This is a great program for kids to learn independency, but at the same time have teacher's guide. Also, have to give credit for Mrs. Hoffman, the school Principle, she really cares about these kids and it really shows when you first meet with her. Highly Recommend this school for all Christian Families.

Multiple performances at the school campus and around the community. My son learned how to play the Chinese yoyo, do kung-fu, and experience native chinese foods during cultural holiday celebrations. I'm truly glad we took the leap and enrolled our kids at Riverview International Academy.

Learning a second language from a free public school is a very rare opportunity here in San Diego. Not a lot of schools offer this. They also have Spanish immersion program. I recommend this school!
