6th grade teacher Mr. Meyers has been bullying my daughter and her classmates throughout the school…read moreyear. He's made certain statements to my daughter saying in front of the classroom, "Nobody is on your side, if you make a complaint everyone will be on my side." Then proceeds to ask the classroom to raise their hand if they will tell on him. My daughter then proceeds to say they are all afraid of him and he will punish them by giving them more work if they do tell on him. My daughter asks to use the restroom and he does not allow her. When she is cold and wants to go to her locker to get her jacket, he tells her, " oh well, I guess you'll be cold then." There have even been several other incidents weekly. This person does not need to teach or be around students. We have had a parent teacher conference meeting with the assistant principal & two other teachers and his attitude toward the kids have been addressed, but no change has been made. Please choose a different school for your child to attend.

A family member of mine (freshman) was sexually assaulted by other students (sophomores), and the incident was reported to the principal and another faculty member in person and through email. There was no follow up until my brother emailed the staff member who "handled" the situation himself, to which she responded that the problem was essentially "taken care of." Not only is that subjective (and in no way truly centers the comfort the victim), it is false. My [family member] received no confirmation of his bullies' consequence and was forced to believe that the issue was resolved. The fact that there was no further discussion/ investigation involving the parents is SO weird. Definitely felt like a coverup so that the schools in the Conejo valley could keep masquerading as safe spaces despite the many offenses of racism, sexual harassment, and bullying that happen way too frequently. You guys disgust me. YOU DONT CARE ABOUT OUR CHILDREN. The entire administration needs to be replaced with people dedicated to protecting our children and setting them up for success.

This school is the smallest of the three middle schools in simi which I find to reassuring. My children and I have had wonderful experiences with the teachers (save one who has since retired :) ), and the administration is wonderful. For the last four years, I have dropped off my kids in the front parking lot and seen the principal welcome them at the front gate. I am appalled to read that last review posted. Those pictures are clearly fake and the comments about gang members and students being "bullied and beaten" is ridiculous and racist. Clearly this parent did not get his or her way.

When I say not good I mean NOT good at all. Many students complain about the same teachers each year. They definitely have one of the best Visual arts program (Vocal Music, Instrumental Music, Broadcasting, Dance, Photography, Filmmaking, Stage Tech. I felt welcomed in this community, all the teachers are amazing in Visual Arts. The math teachers are not good at all so be aware. Only 2 out of the 6, from the year I went, actually taught me instead just posting notes and hoping you understand or just being a terrible teacher. Mind you many students have complained NUMEROUS times for many years about the same 2 math teachers and they are still teaching at that school. The atmosphere is supposed to be welcoming and inclusive but sadly a lot of students make that impossible every year. This is not a normal highschool experience. That can be okay sometimes but in this case, the negatives out weight the positives. When you voice that you are being bullied, or other concerns that conflict with your mental health they brush it off. They do not care about mental health here AT ALL. This school is filled with outcasts who 110% struggle with mental health problems and they don't do jack about it. It is frustrating dealing with faculty and administrators because they never do anything. Not all but most. Bullying is a real thing here but everyone refuses to deny it cause its "a very welcoming community". A friend of mine once reported someone for threatening to kill them selves and they brushed it off like it was nothing, multiple times, on many different occasions. The least they can do is send them to counseling and at least try to speak to the student. Most students wont say anything but just having someone reaching out and showing that they care is a huge step. When a serious allegation is reported, the faculty doesn't even try. During my time at Santa Su, a sexual assault allegation was going around. Many students knew and so did the school but they did NOTHING. No investigating, interviewing bystanders, nothing. Much help is needed in the administration department Students start drama here way more than an average highschool. Anywhere you go there will be drama and rumors but ere it is times 2. Any rumors started, spread like wildfire and can ruin ur whole experience at Santa Su. So be aware. The yearbook seems to always get worse every year. Senior baby photos and senior quotes are something students look forward to. They promise it every year I was there, and never actually add it in the yearbook which is just very disappointing. They make up stuff you never even said. The school itself is always disorganized. Santa Su is for smart students, to be honest. They don't really have good help for people who actually need some or are just an average student looking for help. Its not inclusive as it says it is. Yes, its a magnet school but don't advertise you are all inclusive if you cant even help your students who need it. This is from average students perspective.
