Open Quote My son has been at Cordillera since Kindergarten. Right about the time they decided to shut down a lower performing school and bus those kids into Cordillera. Since then the teacher to student ratio has been abysmal. Parent participation is horrible (with a few glaring exceptions! - you know who you are super parents!). You can't fault the staff at the school, the fault falls squarely on the lap of the state of California , the Saddleback Valley Unified School District, and the general lackadaisical attitude of parents of a certain demographic. The school is under staffed, under funded and under supported by the family's that attend. Knowing this we would have certainly chosen a different are to purchase our home. Close Quote
