Nothing but problems with this school this year had my daughters teacher tell the kids in her class that she wasn't letting any of the kids that didn't do their homework into class. My daughter is an IEP student that has special needs. There is about 20 kids in this class and teacher was only gonna let 3 in class. Had a lot of other problems as well. I'm gonna contact tusd school district and let them know everything that has happened

My son has been at this school for two days and has came home with scratches, bruises under his armpit area in the size and shape of fingers, scratch on his wrist and they claim that they are not grabbing him but im 100% sure its not from home. I confronted the teacher with this and she assured me its not them but then I get a call from the principle and she threatens to kick my son out of school because she has to " protect her teachers" and threatened to make false accusations to cps because I confronted her teachers on not grabbing my son. Who has limited speech and needs the protection.

First impression, one of the top schools in Tucson so happy to enroll my child. By my experience on registration day with the principal, NO WAY! That is not how you get things done, bullying is not OK.

I showed up to register my child for Kinder, and being that school hadn't started I accidentally parked in the principal's spot. Well, she decided it was a good idea to park behind my vehicle, blocking me in because she was upset that I "Parked in her parking spot." I feel this is very unprofessional, and as a first time parent this did not go over well with me. First impressions on the school, staff and of the UPMOST importance when selecting a school. I felt that if the principal has the bully approach with the parents, I cannot imaging what else goes on here. I do not recommend this school based on my one experience.

love this school. Lots of fun learning field trips and events. My Kindergarten child who just turned 5 when he started school was a bit behind the older kids in his class. Even though my husband and I worked with him on the basics, shapes, colors, alphabet and numbers. He was sent home with learning activity books, flashcards, and CD's the first quarter. The awesome teacher, Mrs. Hartman, really cares about children succeeding. By the first report card my child had improved 42% and is now slightly above his learning for his age. Thanks to a very caring teacher. We appreciate this school very much.
