However all the current kids are getting ignored. Only one parent teacher conference a year? Teachers care less! Teach less, my kids have told me how they watch youtube in numerous occasions throughout the years. Middle school kids are treated as in elementary still. We have many days off from school! Not much homework or know whats going on in school other then charity stuff going on. Oh they have plenty!! School safety is a huge concern here. They don't follow safety procedures because they say they have a few. I've put it to a test and past right tru it like nothing. However My kids have had a few decent caring teachers that Im very grateful for many left already but a few are still there. This will be our last year in Mcglone not only because we have relocated but its not worth driving my kids here anymore.

The educators at this school are fantastic. I'm pretty sure the front desk administrators mean…read morewell, but they don't always follow through with safety protocol. So, if I HAD to complain about something inside the school it would be that. They seem to be a little TOO trusting when it comes to who is picking up children. Parking is minimal, the after school pick up is ALWAYS chaotic. Arrive early, secure close parking and you're fine. Drop off is crazy, as well. Mainly because not all the parents follow the rules and think their child is the only one getting dropped off. Mrs. Ortega (the new principal) is stern and fair. I think the communication with parents and faculty could be A LOT better.

We are incredibly grateful for the leadership and care provided by the Kindergarten Lead Guide. She…read morehas had such a positive impact on our child's experience and on the overall atmosphere of the program. What stands out most is her warm, calm, and welcoming presence. From the very beginning, she made both children and families feel comfortable, supported, and genuinely cared for. She takes the time to listen to parents, communicate openly, and make every family feel known and valued. It is also clear how much dedication and effort she puts into supporting the teaching team and maintaining a positive, well-organized environment for the children. Everything feels thoughtful, smooth, and centered around the students' well-being and growth. Her leadership creates a sense of trust and stability that is especially important for young children adjusting to school for the first time. Thanks to her kindness, patience, and professionalism, children quickly gain confidence and feel happy and secure in the classroom. She is truly an exceptional leader and an important part of what makes the Kindergarten program so special.

One of the most valued aspects of this Montessori school is its strong sense of community and its…read morehands-on, outdoor learning approach. The garden, farm, and nature-based spaces give students meaningful opportunities to connect with the environment while developing independence, responsibility, and curiosity beyond the traditional classroom setting. The Elementary Director is truly exceptional and plays a major role in creating such a positive school culture. Her leadership is approachable, compassionate, and deeply student-centered. Families appreciate her open communication, restorative approach, and genuine commitment to both students and staff. She creates an environment where children feel supported and families feel heard, respected, and welcomed as an important part of the school community.

Tried calling the main office, sent emails - no response. Tried visiting the office, it's all "oh okay, yes we will do it." Horrible. If the main office can't communicate or work with you, what more your child and their documents.

Staff turnover is very high. Loved,trusted and experienced teachers don't stay long: lots of rookie…read moreteachers, uncertified teachers and uncertified administration. Curriculum changes yearly. Due to lack of continuity of staff and curriculum, test scores are continuously low. Many layers of administration: everything appears to be micromanaged. Special services for students are difficult to access due to 'data collection' and 'documentation' that takes months. No library for students (it is there, but the space is used as a meeting room, while books sit unused on shelves). Entire school seems disorganized and unsure of what they are trying to accomplish due to too many 'new' programs and procedures that seem to change yearly.
