I would not recommend this school for any child with special needs. It appears they have very low communication with parents and when parents inquire to know more or request to sit in class due to bad daily reports they are treated as if they are in the wrong. It appears that the teacher and principal retaliate when a complaint is made against them. It got so bad that we ended up transferring our student due to the lack of support, and what seemed like retaliation. The principal appears to not be a neutral party when having issues with a teacher or education aide. The communication between the special ed classes and gen ed classes is almost nonexistent. Last year my student was supposed to take a field trip they changed the dates last minute, and didn’t let me know. Had my child’s father not asked about it my child would have went on a field trip that didn’ t have an updated permission slip with the correct date of the field trip, and would not had been at school where I thought he would be. My child elopes, and as parents we feel more comfortable accompanying our child on field trips.

By "Process" I mean dicipline, interaction, empathy, concern" Intimidation and fear are the tools he uses to scare straight students even in kindergarten. True

We have had a great experience at Arroyo Del Oso. They teach the value of being "Responsible-Respectful-Caring and Safe"

ADO is an awesome school with an outstanding staff whose principal has recently retired. It has come to our attention that our new principal was originally transferred to Mission Avenue, but was rejected by their pta and staff. If he wasn't fit to lead Mission Avenue, why is he being transferred to ADO? Just wondering about the judgement of APS officials.
