The Administration at this school favors the low-performing, Spanish Speaking students and families. The parent meetings are twice as long, since they need to be translated in Spanish. The students that are continuing to score advanced on State Testing are not acknowledged, but the 3% of the student population that have raised their scores are rewarded with special privileges. Also, at parent meetings, the principal criticizes other elementary/junior high schools in the same district. The administration present and past have caused this school to fail academically when it was moved to their present location.
Its horriable they don't clean the bathroom's every one in the office is unwelcoming they shouldn't have changed the campus.
I transfered my child from Briggs to Anna Borba in the middle of her school year last year because of the whole move thing and I have to say that I was a little scared to do that because I thought Briggs was the better of the two schools. But after entering Anna Borba and really getting to know the staff and being lucky enough to have great teachers last year and this year, I know I made the right decisions for my child. I have a child that is ADHD and she has been getting avarage grades the last three years in school, and I am happy to say that with the hard work of my daughter and the help from her teacher this year she has made Honor Roll. And I have to say it is because of her teacher here at Anna Borba. Thanks for your help
Anna Borba is unwelcoming. The money spent on IB is a waste. Why aren't the test scores higher?
Great school, wonderful principal and assistant principal, and great teachers. Very welcoming. My kids are getting a great education under the IB PYP program. The staff is hard working and friendly.
This new place is awful. Parents are not welcome and a friendly atmophere is nonexistent. Closing down the first campus and moving was a big MISTAKE!
This new site is just horrible! as a parent you dont feel welcome! I, like many parents fell this way. you are not allow to stand by your childs class. they so call it for security reason . its a bunch of boloni....they dont have someone to wacth the gates after you drop the kids in the morning and just before you pick them up.!
Amazing teacher/child/faculty and PARENT workmanship!Consistency, consistency and CONSISTENCY. Proud to have my child's young mind be educated and enriched with A.Borba Fundamental's striving strategy!!!
My child has been at Anna Borba since grade K. My child is in speech and is doing great. The school is great the teachers are hard working and the Principle and VP are great too! This school is a title one school because of the children that are english second language! The state test is not written for a child that has trouble speaking eng. My child and many children scored very high on the state testing! In fact are teachers went above and beyond to prep are children for the testing! My child scored 100% on 4 areas of the state test! The Ib program is a new way to teach global. My son is learning more than I had learned in CA school and he is becoming a thinking, visionary and most of all a great student! Great job to all the staff at Anna Borba!
I finally pulled my children out of this school due to the poor leadership, teaching staff, and the fact that what you have read in the last quotes are completly on the mark! It was a hard decision to make but my kids have never been happier, and the education that they are receiveing at their new school within in district doesn't even compare to Borba. We thought as many others that it was a better school and that is simply not true. The IB program does not add anything to the school either. It just costs a lot of money!! and was being funded through the PFA until this year. Again pulling my kids out was the best decision I could have made and I am glad I did!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
