I didn't receive a call from the teacher/school about it. Grandpa went down to the school to speak to the principal but she was busy, so he spoke to the teacher and she said she was only aware of the student kissing my son on his shoulder. I was upset that they did not tell me. I didn't get a phone call back from the principal until I called the district, she called about an hour or 2 later. (2 days later). I told the principal my son is uncomfortable and to move him classes and she told me now. I went down to the district and they said they would call me within 24 hours. It's been a little over 2 days now. No one has returns my voicemail since they don't answer their phone.

Meyer Elementary school, this staff name Ms. Santana questioned my daughter about what my child was…read moretelling me when I picked her up from school (Ms. Santana had called my daughters attention earlier that day for no reason and had left my child without recess making her sit down at a bench). The next day Ms. Santana questioned my daughter about what she had told me regarding what had happened (leaving her without recess and accusing her of pushing another gril) she involved Ms. Lopez (lunch lady) the lunch lady got mad at my daughter and grabbed my daughter by her wrist leaving two small bruises. I noticed the bruises the next day in the morning and went straight to the principal (Dr. Carilo) I told her everything that was going on she couldn't believe it and told me she would investigate and call me later. That same day Dr. Carillo questioned my daughter about the situation the principal intimidated my daughter and made her cry and told her she's the one coming to school she needs to fix her own problems and not involve the parents!!! I went straight to the cops and of course had to let the district know too! The principal and staff changed the story and stated my daughter got the bruising from the monkey bars which she doesn't play that and also stated that one of my daughters friends pushed her and made the bruises, and when the cops asked for the videos from the school cameras they stated the cameras didn't capture the location of where the incident happened. The case was dropped!

From the teachers to the staff to the other families, everyone is welcoming, supportive, and genuinely invested in the students. The teachers care deeply about their students and go above and beyond to support them both academically and personally. I've seen firsthand how much dedication they bring to the classroom, and it makes a meaningful difference for my daughter. The Extended Care program has also been amazing. As a working parent, it's incredibly helpful, but what really stands out is how wonderful the teachers are with the kids (shout out to Mrs. Cindy and Mrs. Isola). They create such a positive environment that it's sometimes hard to get my daughter to leave at pickup! We feel very lucky to be part of the Saint John Vianney community and are grateful for the caring environment they provide for our daughter every day.

As a recent graduate, my time at Piedmont Hills was good and bad. A lot of the teachers are very…read morepassionate about their work and are down to earth. A lot of them are kind and always nice to talk to despite the decades long age gap between student and teacher. There are a lot of resources such as a wellness center to support students. One of the biggest problems about this school is the terrible management over the bathrooms. There are several bathrooms across school, and many of them will be closed throughout the day. Newer and nicer bathrooms such as the ones in the new art building and science buildings are always closed. The bathrooms that most people use in the hallways also were closed on and off. There are also locations such as the portables and track where there is no bathroom close by (or the nearest is closed). There is also a 10 minute bathroom policy where you can't go to the bathroom for the first and last 10 minutes of class. For me, as someone who drank a lot of water as a cross country runner, this was hell on Earth. There were MANY times where I would go to class, wait 10 minutes for the 10 minute rule to pass to be able to request to go to the restroom, have to take a long walk (~3 minute walk) to a bathroom, find out that it was closed, walk to the other hallway (approx 70m away) to see if their bathroom is open and find that it is closed, and then be forced to give up or try to find staff to open the bathroom or go on ANOTHER long walk to the office to go to the staff bathroom where I'm not supposed to go to because that's the only bathroom that was open. The lack of bathrooms being open and 10 minute rule also leads to LONG lines for the bathroom during breaks and lunches, which is only exasperated by some of the stalls being taken by girls who smoke in there. Not to mention the bathrooms that were allowed to be open were DISGUSTING. The soap was almost always out, there was ALWAYS a sink (out of the two sinks in the bathroom) broken, and cockroaches everywhere. Reminder that there are 8+ bathrooms, but only 2 were ever really open. Just stupid and silly. Just because there are a few bad apples who use the bathroom to skip class doesn't mean that the rest of the school population should suffer. It doesn't just end there though. It took months of student advocating for there to be a porta potty installed at the track. Hundreds of students use the school's outdoor sports facilities throughout the year (track, xc, softball, baseball, tennis, badminton, soccer, etc) and there was no bathroom near there for a long time. Oftentimes after school, the closest bathrooms (the locker rooms which are still ~.25 mile away from the track) were closed. While the porta potties were eventually implemented, they were CHAINED shut and padlocked. The school has a great student life and I made a lot of memories and lifetime friends here, but the bathroom situation was so horrible it gives this school -2 stars.
