If you care about your kids don't let them attend this school by far the worst experience in all…read moreElementary schools starting with the lack of communication with the principal Ms Patti Lucas does not return any calls, does not email and if she does she lies or haves her staff Maria Davis and Carolina Ortega lie for her. The principal even kiss her teeth and tells me what else do you need from me like suspending my children's for nothing and your staff is doing a horrible job and all you can say is I'll look into it. Not once does this lady fellow through if I don't have the district Ms Vivian Green calling her the principal does not care to fix any issues with her staff. She lied on me saying I don't leave messages or call her which are lies I have my proof. Even Ms Vivian Green assistant Ana is the best and gets the messages through for Ms Vivian Green I don't get the issue. The principal Patti Lucas even lied on the referral where an incident occurred with Mr Shaw was pulling on my son arm and they refused to show me the cameras even when Ms Ashley Schutt stated I could see them. Ms Lucas lied in the meeting with the district and even in writing it says it happened by the stairs but yet took myself, kids father & district team to a whole different area. Then you have Jennifer George the assistant principal is extremely disrespectful and unprofessional she was being disrespectful to my mother when she went to go pick up my kids. Then to top it off you have the aftercare program by the names of Ms Arianna that didn't allowed my daughter to use the restroom and my daughter still went to use the restroom and Ms Arianna told my daughter she will be in trouble, furthermore more my son was playing monkey in the middle and the kids were being ruff and almost chocked my son with his sweater my son told her and she did nothing. But then the principal does not respond at all. If I do not let Ms Candice the aftercare counselor in charge notify Ms Lucas does not return my calls. Then you have Coach Moreno that when my son was playing outside he got hurt by accident and my son asked for ice so he can apply it to his leg and the Coach Moreno refused to send him to the nurse and told my son that's what he gets. I notify the school and of course all Ms Ashley Schutt can say is sorry that it is protocol to send the kids to the nurse that I have to sign a release for okay I did and the Coach Moreno still did not follow protocols my children's are not toys and they do not care for children's safety. Then you have a liar Ms Stephanie that lied on me saying I threaten her but yet I asked for her name and told her I will deal with her with Ms Candice I even messaged Ms Candice she advise me that she won't be back till Monday. To top it off you have Ms Smith which lied on my son saying he threaten her when he didn't saying he was going to hurt her on nothing but yet Ms Smith failed to notify me and let me know anything meanwhile she was screaming at my son and another student. I asked the principal Ms Lucas and all she can say is I believe my teacher not your child. There's another topping to add the police officer Mr Samuel Perez told my son to shut up and he stated it was to get his attention I'm confused who does that. I told the officer to tell me to shut up not my child and the officer did not tell me to shut up. My daughter was a safety patrol and she no longer is and got kicked out because she defended her little brother was getting bully by an older kid which nobody cared to help my son. Do not be afraid to stand up for your children's you are there voice and hero. Stand up parents. This school allows bullying and mistreats children's.

This school is not an adequate art school. They lack facilities for the students to use to continue…read moreand progress in their art career. There are limited programs available and for the limited amount, one would think that they would be excelling in the few they have. There are film classes, but nowhere to showcase their work properly. They don't have an auditorium, a gymnasium, sports, or some of the other things one might want their child to experience in high school. Their homecoming was in the school's lunch courtyard and other school events are done in a small room. They added middle schoolers and have have had issues with sexual harassment. Students have returned back to class after complaints of sexual harassment, while some other students have been expelled for defending themselves. It doesn't provide some of the basic things you might expect when sending your child to high school. However, they don't provide the things you would expect of an art school either. It's somewhere in between. I don't recommend it.
