Absolutely the best school ever!!! My special Ed student received an amazing education
The staff was dialed in to his needs. They were always readily available for extra help. I do not have one negative thing to say about this school.

This school does not support students with specific learning differences. Specifically those with a dyslexic profile. The school psychologist tried to argue with the original IEP and then the IEE to remove SLD as the reason for an IEP. The director of the school constantly argues with you as a parent and takes zero responsibility for the ways the school failed my child. My child spent a year receiving inappropriate interventions that were not based on current up to date evidence. DO NOT send your child to this school. After doing some research there are more public articles and documents of other parents who experienced similar situations. And a former board member who went to the county asking for a grand jury investigation into the school.
The two days a week in person is tempting but not worth the heartache and struggle.

For connect classes, I listened to a student talk about catching a rattlesnake attacking him from behind for ELA. They discriminate against children with special needs (as they "can't support them"), for social- emotional support they bully kids via a tough love approach (which is archaic), and consequently impedes learning. They play favorites with students, and if your student is not part of the in crew they will always be at fault.

Our kids were only able to attend a Trivium in Lompoc for a few months before we moved. They were sad to leave this great school. We were sad to leave an amazing homeschool/charter school hybrid. We loved this school, it is a much better fit for advanced students compared to Crestview on Vandenberg AFB.

My daughter cannot imagine going to school anywhere other than Trivium! She attended the Arroyo Grande Learning Center for 3 years and has now been at the Atascadero Learning Center for 3 years. Every staff person she has been exposed to has been invested her personalized learning experience as if it were their own!
