SO if you have more kids on the ESL plan then they receive more Federal Funding? hummmm, yeah real financially smart to retain kids as long as possible. You need to push the counselors around for a IEP otherwise they are lazy and then act dumb. That is after Mr Mom (as known as) the father forwarding them email(s). Requesting an IEP to transition our child to a EO Language arts class. (trust me I could of gone to Dept of Ed or the DISTRICT but other dumb things happened beyond my control) Over all my biggest concern is "The Counselors dept." are found to be lazy. Do you're self a favor and grab a copy of NOLO IEP's for Parents. Otherwise great community as in the neighborhood is safe and many of the kids are nice. My child never reported any other concern. I will wrap it up in a positive note. That the one thing I will always LOVE or have a happy memory of Citrus Intermediate School, is they were extremely nurturing with multicultural kids especially mine. That was just beautiful to see all kind of colors coming together in harmony. Now Imagine that! My child felt she was just like everyone else! They offered a "sense of belonging!" For that!!! I give them a 5 star all the way home. Thank you! For making this a multicultural friendly school. So as you can see why I gave them a 3 star and not a one star. ps. this took place in 2016

My kids will probably stay here throughout High School. With armed security who is always around, it feels safe. My only issue is the inconsiderate parents. You know who you are. 1.

You can call each other instead of pretending to be friends who haven't seen each other in years. 4. Its chaotic picking up kids, get your kid and go. Yes we know you are special, you have to have a discussion with the teacher. Make an appointment. 5. Slow down in the dirt lot.

"Oh boy." Sabrina Carpenter said it best, and honestly,…read morethose two words sum up my experience at CFIS.Let me be clear. This is MY side of the story. Sure, I probably made things harder for myself at times, but a lot of what happened? That's on the school.Seventh grade started off fine. I was quiet. Minding my own business. I made a friend. It was actually kinda nice. But then in science class, this boy kept bullying me over my Tourette's. Like constantly. I can't control it. I tried to stop it. I told the counselor. They were nice, told me it wasn't okay, said they'd talk to him and handle it. Guess what? They didn't. Nothing happened. He kept going. Eventually he moved on to someone else like it was a game. So yeah, he stopped bullying me. But only because he found a new target. That's not a solution. That's just ignoring the problem until it shifts. Now fast forward to eighth grade. We're supposed to be the oldest, the leaders, the ones setting the example. Yeah right. Drama was everywhere, and the drama I was in? I'm not gonna spill all the details or name names (except for one person, she earned it), but let's just say the school said they'd take it "seriously." Spoiler alert: they didn't. They suspended the wrong kid. Literally punished someone who didn't do anything while the actual problem just got swept under the rug. And now the cherry on top: their "leadership" program. It sounds cute until you're actually in it. It's run by this one teacher -- yeah, I'm name-dropping -- Mrs. Saunders. We were cutting skeletons for an activity, and she starts screaming at this kid in class. Straight up yelling in front of everyone. I went over to ask him if he was okay, but I could tell he didn't feel like talking. Later, he told me he has motor skill issues and struggles with cutting. And instead of helping him, Mrs. Saunders made him clean everything up like he did something wrong. She told him it was "the least he could do. This place is a mess. It's a dumpster fire. No support. No action. Just fake promises and teachers who snap instead of support. If you're thinking about coming here -- don't. CFIS, you need to get it together.

During my time here, I had high hopes of making friends, unfortunately that wasn't as planned. I remember coming into the school, hoping to make friends right off the bat, but it didn't quite turn out that way. I was surrounded by classmates who frequently displayed disruptive conduct, and I experienced peer pressure to imitate their antics in an effort to fit in, which just made me feel more out of place. I am a full Hispanic girl who, surprisingly, never learned to speak Spanish throughout my life.I also favored indoor activities to outdoor ones, which made me paler-skinned than some of my peers at the time. My appearance and lack of proficiency in the Spanish language became a target for ridicule. I was called names like "White" or told that I couldn't be Mexican because I couldn't speak Spanish. One particularly distressing incident stands out in my memory. I was assaulted by another student and had to be taken to the principal's office. Instead of finding support, my mom and I were met with hostility from the principal, who engaged in a confrontation with my mom. This ultimately led to my mom filing a police report, which, unfortunately, only made my situation worse. I became a target for more ridicule and even received threats at one point. The trauma from those years has stayed with me, but with time, I have grown older and more mature. I'm now attending a four-year university alongside my older sister, with the support of my dog and wonderful roommates who all love me just the way I am. It feels like the right time to share my experience with others, as a way of letting go of the past. Despite the challenges, there were a few bright spots during my time at the school. I cherish the very few individuals who saw the good in me and accepted me for who I am. Additionally, there was one special teacher who played a significant role in my life. not only my teacher but also became one of my best friends, providing the support I needed to make it through those difficult years. To that teacher, the one who picked me for student of the month, the one who let me (along with other students) sit in your classroom during lunch, you know who you are, if you are reading this, I am forever grateful for your kindness and friendship during my time in that hell hole.

Most of the people in the school are wannabe gangsters that get away with mostly everything, while me and my friend mess around once and get straight up detention. All of my insecurities ended up there, where some specific teachers would put you on blast just for some little reason that they don't like. One of my "friends" even broke my glasses there and when me and my mom went to talk the vice principal, it seemed like she didn't care and even thought it was funny. I was lucky some of my friends helped me throughout that school year. There were so many fights at that school that I was afraid to tell any teacher or staff there about how I was being treated, some kids in the boys restroom would always put their phones over the stall and take pictures of the kids using the restroom and show it off to their friends and I ended up being one of them, it has brought me down since that happened and every time I ran into them, they wanted to fight me. Being at that school has caused many mental health issues from me and now I even have to take antidepressants, I have to also be put on watch now because I attempted to end my life. I get this is an intermediate school, but no one deserves to be treated like this. It seems sad that this has happened to many students throughout the years of this place being there and the school did nothing about it. I was even too scared and embarrassed to even write this review just because I feel like I'm going to get "jumped". I want to thank my man Julian and Anthony for sticking up for me when no one wanted to.

Please make sure that your student here sees the college counselor regularly (sometimes they're not…read morealways correct) and also go see a counselor at the future 4 year college to make sure they are taking the correct courses for their major.
