He goes above and beyond his capability to make your child succeed and i am very thankful for him. However the front desk workers are terrible.

Am giving this school 5 star because of Mr. Salazar otherwise poor communication and luck of understanding a parent in front office...

Most importantly they start their days with prayer, so they take into consideration the spiritual growth of the kids as well. This is my daughter's second year in this school, she's in first grade. My son will start next year in kindergarten. There had never been a day that I've regretted my decision, on the contrary, as day passes I'm totally convinced that this was by far the best choice. If God allows it, they will attend this school all the way to twelve grade.

If I could give this school 0 stars I would. I am extremely disappointed with this school. My child…read morehas been repeatedly singled out by his teacher in ways that are completely unacceptable. Instead of supporting him, the teacher made him feel isolated and embarrassed. I brought my concerns to the principal, hoping for leadership and solutions, but the response was dismissive and unhelpful, principal and teacher siding with each other. This was my child's first year at this school and I regret signing him up here even after reading the terrible ratings. Giving them the benefit of the doubt was the worst idea. I've never had an issue at his previous schools like I did here. A school should be a safe, supportive place for children -- not somewhere they are made to feel targeted with no accountability from the administration. I would not recommend this school to any parent who wants their child treated fairly and respectfully. There were a few staff members who were very kind so I'm not saying everyone was terrible but the lack of professionalism and compassion here is truly shocking. No wonder they are one of the worst rated and ranked schools in Glendale. Rated 4 out of 10 on great schools website. He's been pulled out of this school and we're never looking back.

Something needs to be said about Glen Oaks Elementary School…read more.. To all the staff helping with pickup -- the teachers, aides, cone crew -- please chill out a bit. This is an elementary school, not a prison yard. The energy out there feels tense for no reason. There's a lot of yelling, finger-pointing, and attitude. Kids are small. Parents are just trying to pick them up. It doesn't need to feel so aggressive every day. A smile goes a long way. A calm tone goes a long way. Instead of acting like wardens, try creating a space that actually feels safe and welcoming for the kids. And this isn't just about pickup -- it feels like a bigger issue with how some staff carry themselves. Having a degree or a position doesn't mean people owe you anything. Respect goes both ways. Hopefully the principal takes a look at this and reminds the team: lead with patience, not pressure. These are children. The environment should reflect that. This is an everyday occurrence and a sad experience

Without any hesitation, I give John Muir Elementary School 5 stars for the following reasons:…read more ~ Ms. Flinstone (kindergarten): She made learning SO much fun at such an early age. For example, when we read Green Eggs and Ham, she actually brought a camp stove to class and made us green eggs and ham! She was very creative with her teaching methods! ~ Ms. Carol (1st grade): Probably the sweetest teacher I've ever had. She too was very creative. I remember her taking us outside to collect leaves in order to inspire us to write our Haiku poems. She also played the piano during "sing-alongs" ~ Ms. Sagadencky (2nd): So much energy! She definitely taught me the difference between "Can I" and "May I" =) ~ Ms. Flint (3rd): We had a huge board and each student had an ice cream cone with their name on it. She would quiz us weekly on our multiplication tables, and if we passed, we'd receive a scoop of ice cream. Once our ice cream scoops reached the top of the board, she'd bring in actual popsicles as rewards. Sweet! Unfortunately, she was only our teacher for a few months because she left on maternity leave. ~Ms. Vigiano (4th): One day, we returned from our lunch break and Ms. Vigiano mentioned that there were golden nuggets hidden all over the classroom that we had to find. It was a nice touch to our "Gold Rush" lesson plan. ~ Ms. Warrick (5th): I gave this teacher hell. If you're reading this, I'm sorry! Ms. Warrick had the misfortune of dealing with me while I was going through my rebellious phase. ~ Mr.Thal (6th): Believe it or not, Mr. Thal was hearing impaired. He taught us as much as he could (including sign language which was awesome), but left because his hearing got much worse. ~ Mr.Ghazarian (6th): Everyone wanted to be in Mr.Ghazarian's class because he was the "cool" teacher. I had him for History and Science I believe, and he was a good teacher. I remember making a really awesome pyramid while we were covering Ancient Egypt. Besides the wonderful teachers, John Muir had the best book sales, Halloween carnivals, bake sales and field trips. I have kept in touch with many of my friends that I met at John Muir. Only con: Mrs. Avakian, the principal. She was a bitter and cold-hearted woman who only smiled or showed any kindness during award ceremonies or events where parents were present.

Attended this hellhole couple years ago have to say it was probably if not the worst experience a…read moreschool can give. Principals and yard staff are so obviously biased about punishing kids it's funny. The school does educate kids on academics but not to ever use a single ounce of their brain to clean up after themself. Some examples: 1. Bathroom had the fattest turd in it that a snobby kid left to not flush 2. Little gremlin kids slob around all the lunch tables I swear to whatever god is up there these kids cannot fathom how to actually be hygienic and keep the campus clean. Also, the school kind of looks like a prison. Theres barely any grass most of the campus is just asphalt it's so depressing. My favorite experiences were Science School (which you have to wait the entire time you are at the school for) and the teachers that are chill. To a student currently attending this school, I hope you enjoy or enjoyed pre-k to 3rd grade because everything in your life will crumble down to dust before meaninglessly blowing away into the wind. Kids will discover trends or stereotypes one way or another. And to the teachers that are actually chill I wish you the best in everything that comes to this school.

I asked that the suspension be rescinded and this taken off his record. She ignored my plea and told me to appeal it to the Superintendent.

Student services, Hagop Eulmessekian is one of the worst of them all. He will lie, doctor paperwork, disrespect you and will do anything to limit your access with your kids school. This district is not in favor of your parental rights. All staff has been bought to push their agendas. The superintendent makes nearly half a million a year in salary, more than a congressmen or senator. If you try to complain they will retaliate against you. If you try to open an investigation, dont waste your time, they are all working together any way and they dont do proper investigations and will take the district staffs word over yours. Glenoaks has even been caught with hiring people who endanger your child's safety. Look it up people, there is so much about them that they try to hide.
