Attention all parents: Avoid West Palm Conservatory in Victorville at all cost!!!…read more My six year old son was bullied the entire year. He was punched in the face, kicked, pushed, and teased all year. We talked with the teacher and school office. We were told they were dealing with the bullies and they would keep an eye on my son. Today was the last day of school and his pants were pulled down by one of the bullies. Another girl told the boy to pull down my son's pants. He was not fully exposed, his underwear stayed up, enough is enough! The superintendent called me and told me what happen and I lost it. I asked if it was the same kids who have been picking on my kid all year and he had no idea. He said that he cannot disclose who the child is but they did deal with the student.

The school and my son's teacher tried to video record him, on her phone play fighting with another student, trying to show my son wasn't being bullied. I sent a recording device with my son to school and all of this including a very disrespectful conversation was recorded. When I revealed I had a recording, the response was, it's illegal to record someone without their knowledge. I responded so I have an illegal recording of your teacher illegally recording my son. The district office, nor this school clearly doesn't care about the education or well being of any children. Be aware! We will have nothing to do with this school anymore and I am pursuing legal actions, to have our day in court.

They bypassed this rule for us and even found a way to get him to school since he wasn't on the regular bus route.

My daughter has attended Mountain View Montessori since Kindergarten and, up until this school…read moreyear, we had a positive experience. She always loved school, felt supported by her teachers, and often served as the classroom helper. Unfortunately, this changed drastically in 4th grade when she was placed with a new teacher whose behavior toward her became emotionally harmful. She went from coming home excited about learning to crying almost daily after school. Concerned, I met with both the teacher and the principal--multiple times--only to have our concerns consistently dismissed. I asked for teacher training to help address what appeared to be burnout. With 33 students--well above the recommended limit--it was clear she may have been overwhelmed. I also respectfully requested a transfer to a teacher with fewer students and more capacity to meet my daughter's needs. Both requests were denied. Despite escalating the issue to the superintendent, no meaningful changes occurred. The principal continued to deny any problem existed. In every meeting, the principal told me my daughter was simply "misunderstanding" the teacher's behavior, completely disregarding how she was being treated. When the principal finally agreed to "talk to the students," she never addressed the specific behaviors I raised. That's when I learned the principal and teacher are close friends--a relationship not previously disclosed--which made the process feel biased and unfair. I ultimately made the heartbreaking decision to withdraw my daughter from the only school--and group of friends--she has ever known, in the middle of the school year. I chose not to enroll her in a brand-new school mid-year with a different teaching model and unfamiliar peers. Since leaving, several parents have shared their own frustrations and concerns, confirming that this wasn't an isolated experience. I've considered legal action to advocate for policy change, but I hesitate because I don't want to take funding away from the students still enrolled. It saddens me to say I no longer trust that my daughter would be safe returning, even with a different teacher. My fear is that if anything serious were to happen again, it would once more be minimized or denied. I once believed this school was a rare gem in the High Desert, but it turned out to be no different from many underperforming schools in the area.
