This school is extremely overwhelming strict and sexist. As someone who has attended Actis Jr High,…read morei would NEVER allow my children to go to this school as this school is very mentally draining and unsafe. THE FRONT OFFICE, AND OFFICE STAFF DONT CARE ABOUT YOU. When I would go up to the office they would never help me at all, instead they made me feel very dumb and as if I didn't know what I was talking about they constantly gave me attitude and dirty looks while speaking to the office lady's. They continuously taken my own personal items like clothing, and my cell phone that was kept with them for a whole week, I informed them that parents were unable to get the phone in time while school was open and refused to give me my cell phone at the end of the day. In my opinion there was no need for them to keep MY stuff in their office for a WHOLE ENTIRE WEEK. Now I wanna talk about how sexist the dress code is. Girls aren't allowed to wear jeans that are tight or have rips above the knees, spaghetti straps, crop tops, and shoes that reveal the toes because it attracts male attention or is "unprofessional" and "inappropriate" now this is where things get serious and is out of hand, NO OVER AGE MEN/WOMEN SHOULD BE STARING AT A YOUNG GIRL. This is mainly towards Mr postif as he is the only person that points people out the most and dress codes almost everyday but mostly the girls now isn't that just strange?? THINK OF IT. The way we dress doesn't depend on our success and the way we pass in school, we can dress the way we want. As girls/women barely even have the rights now days this doesn't help and girls deserve more RESPECT and need to stop being treated as if they are some fragile toy by some stupid adult at a school where children are supposed to be comfortable. And if it's really that big of a deal men/boys in school should be taught to control themselves. PE TEACHERS/PE Don't even get me started with them as there are no good side to them. Let's begin with the locker rooms, when I would change into pe clothes I would be stared at my miss postif and miss karen. Locker rooms are extremely crammed, humid and have a bad stench to them. Mr jones has made many girls uncomfortable, and I've caught him staring at the girls many times during pe. I genuinely don't know where they get there teachers from and how they get hired but they should be fired. The comfort and safety of the students is most important that anything and this isn't being treated very well. I remember there was a time where I got judged by miss postif, she pointed out my biggest insecurity and I cried in the school bathrooms messaging my mom to pick me up because I couldn't take it anymore.

I am a current attending 8th grader, I will graduate in less than a week. I have had nothing but…read morestraight A's this year, and A's and B's last year, yet this school treats me worse than kids that tend to fight or get detention. This school REQUIRES you to buy either the P.E clothes or a gray shirt or blue shorts for 20$. If not, your grade drops or you get detention, in my opinion, this is dumb, dressing out does not determine you participation in sports or your efforts, this should not be such a problem to the school, if it isn't harmful, why do students get detention or even after school detention. This goes on records! "Student didn't wear a grey shirt and blue shorts, so they go after school detention" make that make sense. Teachers here are either kind or rude, most do not care of your learning. They will leave you behind if you cannot grasp the subject within a week rather than ensuring all kids are able to learn. They will get angry if you ask questions as if it isn't their responsibility to answer these questions for students. While there is tutoring, it shouldn't be needed if teachers are able to teach properly, and many students do not join tutoring in fear they will be bullied for being "stupid" which the school does nothing to stop. Bullying is a huge factor to this school, I myself had been bullied for looking "different" I wore band Tees and had a side part, multiple times I've been called names in front of teachers, yet they brush it off, I have been threatened because I was answering questions in class, I've been called nerd and dork. The teachers do nothing and neither will the office. Even if they do, the worse they get is detention. I witnessed a fight before, the kid that started it got a week of In school suspension, while the other walked in the hallways in fear that the friends of the bully will harm him. And while I admire the school's ability to see the "good" in "bad" kids, they refuse to notice that even after months of being a problem, they will not suspend a kid for longer than a week or keep them in separate classes. They refuse to help the victims and only treat them on what they see and not what actually happens behind closed doors. This is why kids are in fear of their bullies. The school will do nothing if they tell. Instead the bullies will only bully more and continue, they might even turn worse for being a 'snitch'. Because the school basically allows this, these kids don't change and continue to make other kids uneasy or feel as if they cannot speak what they feel. Mr. Postiff, he is too strict, he dress codes shirts with bands on them, dress codes shirts with certain font, he dress codes my bracelets for being "spiked" they are rounded, and the spikes do not damage to the skin, a pencil would hurt more than my bracelets, and why would they care? I am a good kid, with good grades, and try hard, while there are kids that do drugs and are horrible people, but they do not care and focus more on harmless bracelets. They don't care about the children and rather dictate how kids act and look. The office ladies are rude, I bought a ticket for a road trip there and they spelled my name wrong, I asked them to change it, they said no. And they speak with attitude as if I am the problem.

All of the teachers we have come in contact with have been extremely helpful and just want to see each student succeed to the best of their abilities.

I would recommend this school as well as the district it is located in to anyone looking to move to the area based on schools for your children.

It's clear that student success comes first, both academically and socially. One of the school's greatest strengths is its outstanding staff. Lakeside has a great mix of experienced veteran teachers and enthusiastic newer educators who bring fresh ideas and energy to the classroom. Together, they are committed to helping every student succeed and reach their full potential. Lakeside offers students outstanding opportunities with facilities that are unique for a TK-8 school. The campus includes a beautiful auditorium, a gymnasium for athletics and activities, and a swimming pool that provides additional opportunities for students, families, and the community. These spaces help create a well-rounded educational experience beyond the classroom. The campus is well maintained, communication with families is excellent, and there are many opportunities for students to get involved through academics, athletics, extracurricular activities, and special events. The school has a strong sense of community, and you can tell that the staff takes pride in building positive relationships with students and parents. Lakeside is also known for its incredible community support. If you have the chance, don't miss the annual Lakeside Deep Pit BBQ, held on the first Sunday of May each year. It's a long-standing community tradition that brings together students, families, alumni, staff, and local residents for great food, fun, and fellowship. It's one of the many things that makes Lakeside feel like more than just a school--it's a true community. If you're looking for a TK-8 school in Bakersfield that values high expectations, caring educators, strong academics, and a family atmosphere, Lakeside School is an excellent choice. I highly recommend it to any family looking for a quality education and a supportive school community.

Sophomore year she got a new teacher and I don't like him very much. He waits until too much time has passed to let me know if my daughter missed work (I know this is on my daughter but the taking too long is what irritates me) he always seems to cop an attitude when I am explaining things to him, and doesn't want to be bothered. I also don't like that he uses caps lock to make a point to my daughter in emails.

I've had more ups than downs at this school, but my son excelled attending here and that's why I rated this school 5 stars. A few things that I thought was the downside of this school is that there's not too many students who get involved with the academic programs versus the athletic programs. I think sports are important; however, I'm shocked that there wasn't more kids volunteering to get involved in Math Field, Battle of the Books and other academic activities. My son only had a bad experience with one teacher his whole time attending here and part of the problem was that he was unorganized, but when we reached out to Ms. Zaragoza (GATE language arts) she had a bad attitude. Rather than coming up with a plan, she was argumentative and we had to involve the principal. The situation was only resolved because the principal stepped in. If we did not reach out to someone above her she would have continued to act unprofessional. I believe that if you become a teacher then you should do it because you love kids, because if you don't then you'll be acting like Ms. Zaragoza and that's a shame. All in all, I think Tevis Jr High is a great school. They have a really nice staff. My son absolutely loved so many of his teachers. This school praises the kids for doing great by rewarding them and they do a lot of school spirit activities. They have a really nice band program and the kids get to march at Disneyland which is a plus for the kids.
