I've carried this for years, but I feel it's time to speak up about what happened to me while…read moreworking for Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, TX as a bus driver between 2011-2013. During my time there, I was falsely accused of sexual harassment by two older male employees. One incident involved a white male coworker who, on a school bus equipped with cameras, grabbed my hand and placed it on his private area. Despite there being potential camera evidence to support the truth, I was immediately treated as the aggressor. Instead of being heard or given the benefit of the doubt, I was questioned harshly by HR and painted as a "lustful Black woman," while the men involved faced no real scrutiny. A second false accusation soon followed from another male employee, as if my character was already tarnished in their eyes. What hurt the most was the lack of fair investigation--no one took my side of the story seriously. I was left feeling humiliated, targeted, and unsupported. I share this not for pity, but to: * Bring awareness to how racial and gender biases can shape workplace investigations. * Encourage others who have been falsely accused to know they are not alone. * Call on institutions like Northside ISD to do better in protecting ALL employees and ensuring proper investigation before judgment. No one should have to carry the shame of false accusations without their voice being heard.

We are so incredibly lucky in San Antonio to have the Winston school…read more My son is off the charts intelligent but had a difficulty in learning. He went to the summer school in 2019 and frankly learned more that summer than he did in the entire year before. He feels accepted, and acknowledged, and the administrators, teachers and staff do an incredible job promoting children that learn differently. This was a life changer. I went from a child that cried to go to school, to a child that adores his school, and can't wait to go. In the words of my son, "mommy, Winston isn't is my school,it's my family" So grateful!

We were contracted by this school to perform outdoor services. They reached out to us. An…read moreagreement was reached for $3500.00 for each service performed. We visited the school a week in advance to ensure we performed exactly to specs. We performed said services in good faith. Despite getting the credit card to process payment at time of contract inception, it did not process. Once we inquired, we were told they would not pay the agreed upon amount but a far lesser amount of $1500 would be paid. If you are a contractor, beware this school has not met their end of our agreement. Past behavior is a good prediction of future behavior.

SAISD what a great district. I come to pick up my child here at Arnold Elementary. These teachers…read moreare great. Especially Mrs. Vasquez. She has taught my two kids. One is 13 and the other is 6 currently, but they both started elementary with her. That was the best foundation for them. This year she is retiring and it is a shame. It is easy to find good teachers in SAISD. But she was great I'd say she was the best Arnold has had. We will miss you and it was a privilege to have our kids in your class. Arnold is a great school and it always has the parents involved. You can tell once you drop off your child. The principal or the VP are always at the front door to great children. It teaches them to learn to separate from parents and it's time to learn. These kids are treated great and they learn respect.

Some of the "facilitator" staff would yell and berate us verbally picking on personal attributes and private performance information with everybody listening out in open spaces. i can recall a moment when i was on my laptop and i was just playing a game on my free time and i laughed at a joke a teacher made not even provoking him. he then proceeded to announce and i quote "yeah and i laugh the same way when i look at your grades!". situations like that and the degrading treatments i endured linger on me still to this day and it feeds into my paranoia and depression. im genuinely afraid to talk to my professors at the college i attend now because i just have this subconcious fear that im taking up their time and that if they know that i dont understand everything that theyll think less of me and that ill be nothing more then a verbal punching bag in their eyes despite repeated reassurances by the college staff that that isnt how they think but regardless no matter how much they show that theyre happy and willing to help i just cant bring myself to ask them because i think about what would happen if i tried to seek help at afia and choose id rather not bother anybody. any time i see grades and any note left by professors even if positive i cant help but click out before i can read too much; my eyes water regardless of the message. this "school" is a cesspool of unprofessional behaviour and psychological torment and rather contrary to their motto i failed to "belong", i failed to "find joy" even going to the mental hospital to be diagnosed with depression mid school year, and i most certainly did not learn how to "be great" as im left a few months after graduation feeling anything but great and more something around the likes of defeated, irrationally afraid and depressed. on the psychological care side of things there is virtually nothing done to try to help those that are in a poor mental state theres no consideration for the depressed, theres no actions taken to help those overstimulated by struggles in life even if it had the potential to be a danger to oneselves. a unfortunate occurance regarding lack of mental health care and intervention i recall was one time after i came back from the mental hospital scared and barely holding myself together with the persistant and frightening subconcious thoughts, despite establishing the trust issues i had with them historically at the time, i went to the office of one of the administrative staff to maybe seek help and ask what to do as i was afraid to really talk to anyone about it and i was desperate for any lifeline that wouldnt immediately upset and cause turmoil amongst my family and close friends so i sat down in the office with tears falling from my eyes and asked what i should do in case i were to "dissappear", referring to the mental hospital, mentioning explicitly how i didnt feel good in my mind and that i was frightened of what may happen to me. and do you know what the response was? she handed me an agenda and basically told me that i should use it to organize my schedule and in direct response to my comment about myself disappearing said "okay lets not do that". and thats all she said before ushering me out. i conclude my review saying if i could i would leave a lower rating and the fact that they turned off and deleted google reviews is VERY telling. i would never wish to ever experience something like this again and seriously, if braination cares about what little positive reputation this school has left then they must take action now and intensively review the performance of administrative staff of afia. I believe the idea and intention is absolutely wonderful but it just doesnt live up to the promises and so im left traumatized into the start of the real world.

When my son was 4, he attended his very first day of pre-K at this school after never having been…read morein daycare or a school setting before. It was a half-day practice session, and understandably, he experienced separation anxiety and attempted to leave the classroom several times looking for me. After just that initial 4-hour experience, I received a call from the principal stating that the school may not be able to accommodate him. I was also told that "our curriculum is accelerated and is not for everyone," and that if I chose to keep him enrolled and he were later removed, it would go on his permanent record. As a parent of a very young child who was simply adjusting to school for the first time, this was extremely discouraging and felt very final after such a short introduction to the program. At the time, I was also enrolled in IDEA for my daughters in what was described as an "advanced program," though I later came to realize the curriculum was not actually more advanced than what is offered in other local districts. Ultimately, I chose to withdraw my son and place him in a different preschool where he was given the time and support to adjust properly. Today, he is a thriving 5th grader at BASIS, where he is truly challenged and excelling academically. I share this experience because I believe early childhood education should include patience, understanding, and support for children who are new to structured school environments--especially at age 4. While this school may work for some families, it was not the right fit for ours, and I wish my son had been given more than a single day to adjust before being judged as incompatible with the program.

I don't practice, I don't go unless it's for major events (Easter, Christmas, Weddings, and Funerals), and overall, it's... not my thing.

So, this review is on their behalf. Traffic and parking are well directed and managed, and they have many masses to choose from for you to attend. Their church bulletin in and of itself is a novel (according to Mom), and everyone is very polite, respectful, and serene. The church itself is beautiful, and everyone we've heard speak felt genuine. It's an excellent "church away from church" for my parents, and they are always excited to celebrate mass with the congregation at St. Matthew's.
