We moved 20 minutes away to surprise and still drive in for the remaining of the year because it worth it! My child has an IEP and worked well with this wonderful women named Ms. Neagle. Also shout out to a few other teachers! Mr. Boone the coolest guy ever. Keep the kids on their toes. Mr Keller you only started a few years ago but made a big impact as soon as he walk through the door. Can't forget Ms. Amy Rice you are much loved! Ms, Barlow! Ms. White! Mrs. Armijo! You just don't know how important you are! And big shout out to Mr. Kindred (5th grade) for teaching these kids sign language on your spare time. I recommend this school!

This school teaches a woke ideology and is not factual about basic education example- one of the…read more6th grade teachers (Won't say "his" name) is teaching children that taxes charged at a grocery store, goes directly back to the store. What a moron or liar. The city tax goes to the city, county tax goes to the county and the state tax goes to the state. And this guy teaches social studies. The school should teach American history, the constitution, etc. Maybe the teacher needs to learn as well. One of the other teachers there told my step-daughter (when she asked for her help because she didn't understand something) to go ask a tutor if she doesn't understand. What kind of teacher does this? Someone who isn't a teacher. Got to be the worst school. SEND YOUR KIDS TO -COUNTRY GARDENS CHARTER SCHOOL!!!!

To Vegan M. If you are not brave enough to post your true name and stand up for what you say you…read morebelieve then your post is not worth the space you've used to post it. Your facts are not facts at all, they are your opinions of this teacher. My son was in her class and I saw first hand what a loving and wonderful teacher she is. She does not indoctrinate students to CCV. She loves them and if they ask her about the bible she shares with them AFTER SCHOOL. Which the last time I checked is perfectly legal. Her husband does not preach, he works for CCV. He does not have an agenda that she must fill either. If you're afraid of the true savior then seek answers elsewhere, don't lash out at a wonderful teacher and person that is just doing good things for people. There is no crucifix on her wall, it's a cross on her personal bulletin board. The only students she talks to about baptism are the girls in the bible club that is led by STUDENTS. Get your facts straight and don't post anonymous, cowardly comments about a wonderful person! If you have something to say, stand up Ms. Vegan M and say it with pride and to her face. Shame on you for running to the district office and the administration just to make yourself feel better. Maybe if you were in that kinder class when you were little you would have enough self esteem to help you handle things in life that are not of "your beliefs" and be able to move past your feelings towards others. Oakwood is not a laughingstock in the PUSD area nor is it a laughingstock in the state of Arizona. Maybe in the gossiping, closed minded circles you are in but not in the real world. if you cannot stand up and be recognized and challenged for your comments then keep quiet. Shame on you.

I have visited this location twice, but have had a long time of seeing the results of this…read moreelementary school from my Girlfriend's Daughter. Based on my experience, observation, and discussions with the actual Parent of attending child, my review is as follows: The school appears to be an average structured school with the basic parent teacher meetings, etc. The child had no real complaints about it. My suggestions and observations are as follows: * Have a more direct communication channel between the parent and teacher, without child * Have any and all documentations electronically sent to parent's email or even posted to drop box or site, as children do not always provide on time. * Make it a requirement to have actual homework and book reading * All in all, there seems to be a little to much flexibility

She is a very smart girl. A Princess that is! She had no issues until going into 1st grade Mrs. McCormick yelled one to many times for my daughter that doesn't get yelled at home. She began crying when it was time to go to school and not wanting to go. I would still give this school a 5 star because everyone else that made my daughter comfortable. The principal Mr. Anthony Terrill has a heart of gold. And is a true role model for our future!

Office personnel who lie, and a Principal, Christina Arias, who is incapable of aligning herself with her leadership team and district policy. Teachers who cross the line and intervene with child safety and their well-being. A lack of documentation to align with family court requirements, and this also applies to the nurse's office. In addition, unrelated documentation was placed in the medical records by the prior nurse, inserting personal opinions of a slanderous nature. Here's what you need to know: Chronic forms were called into question and removed maliciously, then corrected by the board. Nurses with bad behavior. Teachers with bad behavior. A principal who is incompetent. Leadership who pacifies. Higher leadership who sweeps serious issues under the rug. A board that tries to hide correspondence from the general public.

I loved what I did and he took that away from me. I was involved in an accident where I panicked and back the bus into a cement fence wall. This was due to me freaking out about never going into Sun City due to complaints from residences. I made a wrong turn into a neighborhood panicked and tried to hurry up and get out. I reported it and was written up. A few weeks went past and I had gotten a night field trip. Upon returning to the school I thought I had sideswiped a gate. After students got off the bus I walked around and seen no damage. I returned to the yard where I walked around again, no damage. This was a Friday night. On Tuesday morning and afternoon an office person drove the bus I drove Friday night and as I went on my route Tuesday afternoon she was in the yard yelling about the big scratch that was down the driver side of the bus. I went to work on Monday and Tuesday no problems. On Wednesday Phil came to my bus as I was checking it and told me there was damage to the bus I drove Friday night and I was yelling at me that I was not allowed to drive. I swore it was not me and was crying because my job was on the line. Sure enough the person in the office that probably did the damage still had her 20+ year job and I didn't have mine. We did pre and post checks of our busses. How come it took them 2 full business days to pin this on me when other people drove that bus since Friday including the office personnel. I lost my job for something I did not do. Be aware for favoritism working here. As of this writing September 23 2021 Peoria Unified has stopped bussing due to bus driver storage. I am assuming because of Covid but probably because of Philip Camacho's lack of employee skills. Very badTransportation Director

I am a special needs driver and just adore my kids. This job allows me to have the time off I want such as summer breaks, extended time through the holidays as well as time during the day to get done any appointments or tasks that need to be done. The pay is not all that great but this is more for a retired or semi retired person that is looking for health insurance and time for themselves.

Please don't send your child here. My daughter was the only African American girl in her class and…read morethe teachers allowed the Hispanic children to ignore and bully my child. The other kids made fun of my daughters hair, refused to play with her and the staff did nothing about it. There was a child in particular that would hit and bite other children daily all they did was keep threatening him he was never removed from the program. They went through 3 teachers in one school year. The assistant teacher Ms. Ann is an older lady and is not physically fit enough to do this job she is always sitting down and making rude comments. The other parents will not speak to you if your not Hispanic, I invited some kids to my sons bday party none of them so much as replied to me. If you say Hi you wont get anything back. The classrooms (a trailor split in half) smell pretty bad and cleaning and sanitizing doesn't happen very often. There is no real curriculum they let the kids pretty much play with centers the whole time with maybe 10 minutes of story/ carpet time. So no your child will not learn their colors or alphabet forget any type of phonics or phonemic awareness. Its pretty much just socializing for kids, they claim to try to prepare them for kindergarten this is not true neither of my children learned anything I didn't teach them with my own lessons at home. if your kid doesn't fit in its hours of being ostracized not allowed to play certain centers. You wont be made aware of it so volunteer often so you can see how your child is being treated.
