Last year, I read about the construction of Cristo Rey St. Viator College Preparatory High School…read moreand researched the Cristo Rey network. This past week, I attended one of the school's grand opening events, which blew me away. The school is modern, spacious, and clean. The students, dressed in uniforms, were excited and supportive. They emphatically cheered for one another as each student was introduced. The students' parents and extended family, including aunties, uncles, and cousins also attended the event. You could see the family members' beaming with excitement and pride. The President, Father Tom von Behren, is a passionate and well-spoken leader. He seemed to have all of the students' respect and attention. He spoke about the school's mission. The school combines traditional education with work study to prepare the students for college and beyond. Each student is assigned to one of the school's corporate sponsors to get first hand experience in a professional environment. I love the concept of combining classroom education with real life experiences within the community. I believe it will keep the students engaged and energized. I look forward to seeing the school and students grow.

I've gone to this school since freshman year. I'm a junior now. I've made friends here, I show up,…read moreand I try to do what I'm supposed to do but tbh let's stop pretending this school doesn't have major problems. Because it does. The policies are bad, and they punish students instead of actually helping them learn. The school says it cares about education, but the moment a student gets a few tardies, they're thrown into in-house suspension and stuck on a laptop all day. That's not teaching. That's not helping. That's isolating students from real classrooms and calling it "discipline." How does removing students from class help them succeed? It doesn't. i would like an explanation to counter claim that. putting them in in-house isn't going to help them for the future, some kids don't even want to come to school because they don't want to sit in in-house. And the tardy system itself is ridiculous. Morning traffic on 5th Street and Alexander is a mess every single day. Parents block the bike lane to drop off their kids, cars are half in the road, and no one can move. I've literally been unable to get into the parking lot because of this. That delay is completely out of students' control, but we're the ones getting punished for it? First period tardies should not be treated the same as being late to class during the day. In the morning, students have to fight traffic, find parking, and walk across campus. Getting a tardy and having it go on your record because you're one minute late is unfair. One minute does not mean a student doesn't care. It means the system is broken. If this school actually cared about learning, it would fix the traffic issues and rethink policies that keep students out of classrooms. Right now, it feels like the school is more focused on control than education and students are the ones paying the price. if you want kids to learn let them learn.

WORSE ATHLETIC's I have ever experienced in my life. My son was so excited to start High School…read morewith Canyon Springs. My son has played football since he was 5 years old, so imagine his excitement to finally play at the High School level. Or so we thought! Yeah this school is a JOKE, and so is the staff behind athletics. As many children that suffer every year from Depression, Anxiety, Suicidal thoughts and the list goes on, you would think these schools would take it more serious when they have students who are motivated to participate in activities to keep them busy. Well not at CANYON SPRINGS, I guess you have to be considered one of their favorites. I have had to order MIDDLE SCHOOL TRANSCRIPTS which was baffling to me considering my son is only a freshman and has been with CCSD since Kindergarten. They have put me through Hoops and Loops all to tell my son every week he still isn't eligible to play, but not reason for it. I have contacted the School district 5x's requesting to speak with Jonathon Grande, the Superintendent Jhone Ebert, and the Superintendent for the school Lindsay Thomason and have gotten nothing but "There not available right now". I bet their available when their paycheck hits their bank account!!! How are you not available to speak with a parent, which is the reason you have your job. I've tried to contact the school principal all to be told "He's in a meeting right now" and still no call back. At this point, my concerns will have to go to the News because that is the only way I will get some attention regarding my concerns. If this is how we are starting off the relationship with my son, myself and Canyon Springs High School, they may as well give me a desk and my own phone line because they are going to be hearing from me A LOT!!! CCSD and Canyon Springs, YOU MUST DO BETTER to educate and encourage these children to participate so we will stop having so many students failing and committing suicide from the depressions of life and school! I know this from ACTUAL EXPERIENCE and I REFUSE to go through it again, even if that means I have to sit outside of the school district or school everyday until they finally do their job and process my sons account on register my athlete so he can play football.

Then when parent teacher conferences they split up the 4 teachers into 2 groups and you cannot sign up for both because it's unfair. What's unfair to us parents is no responses/1 week later responses. The principal does not do anything about it either. I tried reaching out to him as well and you guessed it NO RESPONSE! This school is crap and should be closed. Also majority of the teachers do not have their license.... How about getting staff like love to teach and care about these kids they are our future.

Honestly there's a couple of good teachers that really do take their job seriously but overall like I said the assistant down to the principal down to the ladies within the office allow so much to transpire but will not be sending my son this to this school next year this school allows the bullying allows the torment allows the suicide thoughts run across our kids and don't care! It's very sad cuz I never of my son being in school felt defeated when it comes to his education until he came to this school not even just his education alone just his safety his sanity everything and every time he tries to conversate with someone it falls on deaf ears every time I request the phone call back it falls on deaf ears!
