The 'resource teacher' for Knolls elementary needs to be replaced. I called asking about any/all…read moreprograms the school had for the parents of autistic children. I gave her their ages. and yes they have an IP #, etc. but she NEVER told me IF there were programs for the parents. Ultimately, she said she couldn't tell me until she had x, y, more information. Then she told me I needed to contact the PTA for information. --- Blanketing everything was her impatient attitude: I'd-like-to-be-doing-something-else.

The facilities (beautiful shaded playground, fun classrooms and swimming pool!), welcoming and caring staff and teachers, and enrichment programs (Spanish, physical education, music) were all such a blessing. My daughter started when she was 3.5 with Mrs. Silva and Ms. Riley. My daughter typically has a hard time with new environments but got comfortable with the school right away - she only cried at her first drop off and never again. She ended the year with so many friends and great relationship with her teachers - especially Ms. Riley. She also learned all her letters and numbers. This year, she has been in the pre-K program with Ms. Adele and Mrs. Zangri. It has been a great year so far with learning math, science and sparkle words! My son started in the infant room a year ago with Ms. Alexa and Mrs. Taiko. In the fall, he moved to the toddler room with Mrs. Claudia, Mrs. Ana and Ms. Krysten. All the teachers are so loving and I can tell how my son has bonded with them. I especially loved all the work the teachers put into the open house and other family activities like the Halloween parade, grandparents day, and holiday performance. They create a great sense of community by involving the parents in so much of what goes on at the school. I would highly highly recommend this daycare/pre-school to any family that is close enough. We commuted from Chatsworth and it was totally worth it!

Update... as we near graduation…read more The Great -- The teachers. Almost without exception, every teacher we've had at Calabash (approx 12) has been top notch, committed and inspirational. The Good -- The PTA. It's improved. A lot. It's now run by a responsible group that is really committed to raising funds and implementing quality programs for the kids. The Mediocre -- The parents. With the exception of a few, the parent involvement is pretty lame. Same group of parents that volunteer at every event. The BAD -- The Principal. One of the worst I've ever seen. She attempts to run the school like a military base. She has her sights set on climbing the LAUSD ladder and, clearly, every decision she makes is geared toward furthering her personal goals as opposed to creating a nurturing, fun, inspiring environment for the kids. And this isn't just my opinion. Every teacher, parent and student hates her.

Teachers are butt let me call some out, Mrs French, Mr Adler (he's literally a pdf), Mrs Troy. Mr Adler once gave a kid CHOCOLATE WITH ALC IN IT. LIEK WHAT. A lot a lot of fights, probably 20-30 when I went. Once got pantsed and mr k kept being werid and asking in a very sexual way for me to demonstrate how low my pants went, yes he wanted me to pull them down... this school is trash, trash everywhere, they watch you in the bathroom they'll literally watch you through the stall to make sure your not doing drugs. Pretty unorganized. I would rather teach a kid myself then send mine here.
