Open Quote Our family just moved from Utah to AZ and this school compared to the elementary schools there are horrible..Well the kindergarten is horrid.. no individual attention, teacher gives each student about 30 seconds of help..i observed the class (Mrs G) today and was just so deeply disappointed that i was actually paying for this kind of education.. this school massively needs about 2 helpers ALL DAY for kindergarten..The kids are bored, and no one is really getting the learning environment they actually need! Teacher is all over the place doesn't concentrate in one area at a time like 2 weeks just ABC's or 123's or letter sounds or shapes.. she just gives it all to you at once and its overwhelming.. i was in tears because i want more for my child than this...(supposedly 9 star rated but definitely not kindergarten ratings..) i want to revoke my child from the school till next year but i cant cause every kindergarten is full within 50 miles from my home.. Now on the other hand my other child is in 1rst grade and is thriving, 100% spelling test, 100% math... doing awesome... and loves his NEW INTO THIS SCHOOL YEAR TEACHER Mrs Mason! Id give this school a 0 for kindergarten and a 5 for 1rst grade.. Close Quote
