I would give negative stars if I could. I asked for an IEP just before school ended last year, they…read moredidn't make an appointment until the end of the 1st semester. Some teachers were good, then you have horrible ones like stephanie armendariz, who are more interested in acting like your child's friend then be a teacher, rarely responded to messages that were sent, disregarded my child after they recieved the IEP and would refuse requests they had in line with it. The school is over populated, fights occur on a daily/weekly basis, my child's 8th grade counselor was inept, I was not given the copy of the IEP contract until reaching out numerous times over multiple weeks, the document should have been made available the same day. Unprofessional, lack of judgement, this is for the administrators. Schools in West chula vista are better

This school is supposed to be the best high school in Chula Vista in terms of academic performance…read more It may be, but not due to the counseling department for sure. I have emailed my kiddo's counselor with a question. No response! They do the bare minimum for their job. The counselors are terrible at this school! Support at this school definitely doesn't rival those at north county schools. There are some great teachers here where you can see their passion for teaching. They tend to be AP teachers, of course. The math teachers don't really stand out. I'm not going to name names but there is a math teacher that didn't respond to any emails from parents who had emailed them with concerns. One student reported this math teacher was helping them with a math problem while simultaneously playing Pokémon Go. This was after school, though. Maybe the teacher was THAT good, doing two things at the same time but students need respect, not just teachers. The 504 process was great though, I liked the fact that most teachers show up for the 504 meetings. Thanks, caring teachers, for your support of kids with disabilities. They just spent a lot of $ sprucing up the campus and it is looking pretty nice!

We have great teachers, great staff, and we have a new principal. Fights and dumb stuff still happen lol but they don't happen that often.

Wanted to share part of an email that was never fully addressed by the staff at Eastlake or when I…read morewent to the superintendent. The superintendent referred me back to the school staff which made no sense. I obviously reached out to the superintendent because I needed more assistance the staff was not able to provide. Here's a piece of my email. At this point we do not feel supported by the staff at Eastlake Middle School and want this recorded as a written complaint. I am concerned and upset that no one cares that Mr. Spates is creating inappropriate relationships with children. I was on the phone listening to a conversation between Mr. Spates and my and my daughter and i did not feel comfortable with the way he was speaking to my daughter. He was too friendly. Got mad at her for not giving him her chips to eat then kicked her out over her chips. I can go further in detail in person but it was too playful for me and unacceptable. He gives creep vibes. The man was super playful with my baby girl, it made me uncomfortable.

Very nice basketball gym here. It is kept up well and is a great place to host basketball…read moretournaments. On this visit, there was no Snack Bar nor vending available. We have gone other times where they do have like a really robust snack Bar situation happening. Who knows maybe the parents didn't have enough time to get this together which is fine. Overall, the gym is very clean and you can tell that it isn't dated or yucky. The bathrooms are well maintained and I do appreciate that the floor is perfect for Basketball. there are a lot of bleachers here. It is a very big basketball or volleyball gym or whatever sport that they're hosting.

It was a horrible experience Specifically because of the history teacher I got. A crazy blue eyed, brown hair,white woman who thought she could keep kids after class, lock them in her class and verbally abuse them. I reported her immediately after one incident but the school never took action. Not one single meeting with her. Im so thankful I was moved to a better school and im sorry for any kid that went through what I went through. Hope that maniac isnt a teacher anymore. No adult should ever treat teens the way she treated me or be a teacher. This school should do psych tests on their teachers before hiring them.

This was my daughter's first year at ORAA. Entering 6th grade was difficult in the beginning,…read morebecause a lot of the kids had been together for many years, but she eventually made friends and now she loves the school. Her teacher Ms. Clark was a joy to work with and seemed to very much enjoy her job and her students. I found all the teachers and staff passionate about both their jobs and the students. Many of the staff knew my daughter by name despite not even being her teacher. The parent community is very welcoming and the school as a charter always received a lot of support from the parents as they went through the difficult process of applying for approval to operate inside CVESD. The school is located on the campus of Mater Dei Catholic High School and the two schools seem to have a good relationship that allows ORAA to use the fields and theaters for school events as needed. The campus in my opinion is safe (fenced with security) and the teachers run safety drills that unfortunately are necessary these days. The curriculum is home-school based meaning the kids do a lot of independent learning at home and in class on computers. I think this teaches time management and goal setting as well as instilling a growth mindset in the children. Class sizes tend to be on the high side, 30 students/ 1 teacher with a classroom aid. When I did bring concerns to Ms. Clark, she addressed them promptly and welcomed the input. The school also regularly recognizes achievements by the students and this really does help grow confidence. I have only ever found the staff and other students to be friendly, welcoming, supportive and inclusive, which is,I think, what most parents hope for their kids. And I don't doubt that any concerns I would bring up to her teacher or the office staff would be immediately addressed.
