Torrance Unified School District - Entrance foyer

Torrance Unified School District

School Year 2010-2011…read more We moved in April and I have been trying to take care of this with your office since May. Your office was very harsh with me telling me my proof of residency I was able to print out online was not good enough- not letting me finish my sentences and discuss it and try to understand- but just saying "no" over and over again. I left that office crying. That is not a feeling I expect when dealing with a school office. Over the summer, I checked your website daily hoping for some information about when you would open and what I needed to do. To this day the website still says "Interdistrict Permit for Torrance residents- Information sheet- Coming soon!". I emailed you on Friday, August 13th to find out what date your office opened and you responded on Tuesday, August 17th and told me that you were open from M-F from 8:30-4:30 being closed for lunch from 2-3. I waited for my last piece of appropriate proof to come in the mail, and I showed up with my children on the morning of Friday, August 20th. There was a note on the door saying you were closed. On Monday August 23rd I brought all of my paperwork to you, which you still tried to tell me was not acceptable even though your office told me exactly what to bring, and you told me you needed to process my application and I could not leave with my release letter. I tried to discuss with you what my options were and you finally looked at me and offered to pull mine out and get it done ASAP. You told me I could pick up a copy so I could hand it over to RBUSD. I followed up with you the next day and you responded as if you did not know me with a blanket answer that the permits would be mailed out and I could not pick them up and you could not fax them. I have not received anything in the mail as of yet and I have missed registration for both kids on Wednesday August 25th. Today is Monday August 30th, and the kids start school tomorrow. They will be late to class because we missed registration and have to register at 9AM tomorrow. I cannot register them without the permits in my hand, and the problem is I only received a permit for ONE child from you in the mail on Friday and the RB school office received NOTHING. Later on August 30th: I showed up today to pick up a permit for my other son and you were so rude and didn't smile and didn't apologize for me not receiving it. You snapped your gum and mumbled something to your co-worker about the apartment number missing. You handed me the copy and I said Thank You and you said "uh huh". I have sent another email since asking- just so I could be properly prepared- the procedure for renewals. I got NO RESPONSE. I do not appreciate being treated like this and I personally think you should be doing a much better job. I do not agree with you working for the benefit of my children and think you should think about the way you treat people as well as represent the Torrance Unified School District.

Worst school district ever! I wasted an hr and a half and 2 damn days to answer 3 questions and…read moresign 1 form. Was late to work got written up for being late although I told them over and over and over I have 1 hr for lunch and had to come back cause they couldn't tell me the aper work yest I brought wasn't good enough! They move at the speed of molasses and are rude to me and other parents. And simply don't care they WE as parents have jobs to get to. And yest when I came the lady in the middle of helping me just left. I mean, LEFT for the day and didn't tell me. And I waited and waited and then they said, "oh she left you'll have to come back tomorrow" although I was there 1 hr before they close. Lmao...they are a joke of a school but due to my daughters IEP speech needs I'm at their mercy but HATE this school. And process. They need to hire more people clearly to help parents, not talk in the back and make coffee while we wait

South Bay Christian School - 8th grade graduation

This school is a gem. Several of the faculty have been teaching here for twenty-five years. They're…read moreunquestionably qualified and experienced. Academically, parents don't have a worry. However, where SBCS leaves other schools in the dust is what they manage to achieve OUTSIDE the classroom. Class size allows the faculty to focus on EVERY student and their needs. No one gets lost in the crowd. That means if your child is dealing with any issues, they'll be noticed and get the attention they should get. This school is all about teaching to the whole individual. Learning to handle responsibilities, conflict, impulse control--the faculty have it under control. If you don't just want your child to grow up a competent math student, then this is where they should go to school. They'll learn how to be moral, caring, thoughtful, and self-aware people (who are also good at math or English or ...!). They've also had a new principal for two years now, Kirstin Born, who taught for twenty-five years before assuming the top position. You couldn't ask for a more savvy, sensitive, experienced person to guide the school. She bends over backwards to meet the needs and requests of her students' families. You won't complain about crickets if you approach Mrs. Born with any concerns. SBCS is great for any student, but it is a gift to students who need extra attention and personalized care in the hands of loving, experienced teachers and administrators.

My daughter went to South Bay Christian School for nine years, and we loved it so much that I ended…read moreup joining as their finance administrator for a few years. Even though I'm no longer on staff, I'm still a strong supporter of the school by helping in anyway I can. Finding SBCS felt like discovering a hidden gem, and it truly was. The teachers and staff are so loving and compassionate--they care about each student, not just academically, but as a whole person. The school focuses on strong values and character building, helping kids grow into kind, responsible individuals. Two years after graduating, my daughter is thriving in high school. SBCS always felt like a big family, and the friendships we made there will last a lifetime.

They take the time to get to know each child individually, and it really shows in the way they support and guide them. The extra care and attention my kids receive is exactly why I chose a private school, and First Lutheran has exceeded every expectation. We're so grateful to be part of this community.

Ive had three children attend FLS. My first two were fine. But they fired the professional…read moreseasoned principal. They appointed the inexperienced first grade teacher as the principal. She lacks the leadership experience and education to lead the school to its next chapter. This school also lacks instructor diversity. The school is led by all women that previously attended the school and now work there in order to get a discounted tuition and preferential treatment. Currently there are two male teachers. There is only one PE teacher and she a friend of the leadership team. Consequently they all live in a bubble. The academic curriculum has declined and is outdated. The principal refuses to implement curriculum to improve the technology and AI curriculum. There is only one computer teacher and the students meet once a week. They lack excellent foreign language, music and arts instructors. I would not recommend this school if you are looking for a quality Christian private school. Please do your research your child(s) education depends on it.
