    I went to Julian Elementary from fifth grade onward, then, their Junior High and high school. Some…read moreteachers were definitely better than others. The ones that weren't as good were by no means bad people, but in high school I did notice some teachers favored the Advanced Placement students over the regular students. I had tried to enter an AP class for the first time in eleventh grade, and certain people tried to keep me out of them and tried to discourage me from taking them because I was in Special Ed and they didn't think I was smart enough to aim higher. If I had not taken AP I don't think I would have bridged my educational gaps as well as I did, so I'm glad I took the advanced class. We had some really good teachers too and I'll gladly call them by name. Mr. White ( the math teacher, now in Borrego) , Mr. Munson ( My English and U.S History teacher), Mrs. Kodimer ( the Art teacher). These were the teachers who seemed to believe in the students the most. I was a brat, and they held out for me anyway and considered my potential and ability to learn. I now hold a special place in my heart for these subjects. And just to address Anonymous A's post about Brian Duffy. She's wrong about them. It's so easy to debase someone's character on a Yelp review while giving no real descriptive evidence of their wrongdoings. I butt heads with Brian Duffy a couple of times, but that was because he was our principal and I was a brat. But never. NEVER. Did I ever think that man was a racist. He gave us no reason to think so. And as for Mr. Copeland, before he became the principal, he was my first teacher in the public school system back in '07. Funniest dude ever! His class was a lot of fun and he taught us how to build Boats and had cool parties in class and at Mission Bay. He also helped my mom and I rescue our horses during the Witch Fire when we had to evacuate by tying them to our cars and driving them out of the neighborhood when we had to evacuate. I had Mr. Copeland as a Junior High math teacher as well. Good guy. Definitely thinks of all his students as equals, he's just not a panderer or a kiss-ass. Which is good. We need more teachers/principals like him in the world. The school is like half Native American and Mexican anyway. Far from an "all white" school, and no, that's not what the staff/ teachers want it to be. I'm not sure what her grievance is with the busses, but I can assure you race was not a factor. - An Actual Former Student of the Julian Union School District Over and Out! Oh, one last thing! Mr. Martineau, if you're reading this, you're super awesome, and I have really fond memories of my sixth grade class because of you!

    For all of the parents that got notice over Christmas break that the school had closed and we had…read more10 days to find alternative placement for our children- I have to write this review. The school mismanaged their funds. They went bankrupt. They did not plan on telling the families or the kids. The pastor mentioned it at church one Sunday and a parent of an enrolled kiddo heard. He then announced it at the Christmas recital! It was a ruckus. Parents panicked, kids were confused. Teachers had no idea they were out of a job 2 weeks before Christmas. However, the headmaster there was not affiliated with the church and had a passion for education and the kiddos. A handful of parents, himself, and 3 teachers worked tirelessly to find an alternative and ended up opening a new school in the same town. It is way better than Ramona Lutheran, the kids are thriving. Ramona Lutheran dropped the ball; and for some reason, no one knows about it. The local paper even wrote an article about the school closure and in no way mentioned that it was more than just a sad accident. This school plans on re-opening. Anyone who knows what happened would NOT recommend this school. Do NOT go there. There are better options. RLCS still has photos of our kids on their yelp page!! Take them off!!!

    I have not enough words to express the love and safety I feel dropping my son off here. It's so…read moreincredibly appeasing knowing your child is being cared for like their own.
