Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
32nd Street Magnet School Is headed in a right direction with the addition of a great hands-on principal Mr. Gonzalez and a enthusiastic resource staff. I have 3 children that come to 32nd and we always knew we had great teachers but now it seems everything is coming together. The website is up to date, we have more USC programs for our students, staff is cleaning up school, friendly personnel and people seem to listen to your concerns. We are headed in the right direction get involved.

I advice all parents to excercise their rights as parents. Ask to speak to the principal and if you dont get the responce that you need write a letter address it to the principal make a copy and send it to here boss. George McKenna superintendent district 7 323-242-1300. Remember your children deserves as much respect as administration. And, Yes Ms. Tate can be dificult but remember she is their for the students not for her health. Before this year i use to feel more welcome. It's starting to feel like less of a community

I agree with the the previous comment. I have had brief conversations with Mrs. Tate, the assistant principal, and she is as rude as they come. I tried to speak directly with Mrs. Bruntt, the principal, but she NEVER returned my call. Instead she redirected me to Mrs. Tate. I advise EVERYONE to please speak up. Call the school's superintendant and let him know about your situation.

I must say this school is by far the worst school Ive attended. The teachers here are very difficult to understand and only care about getting paid and not the well being of the students education. The staff is terrible and uncommitted. The courses offered here are limited and not taken seriously. If you are planning to send your child here take note that this is a terrible school but a great day care.
I used to do to this school not so long ago. It was the best middle school experience i had. all my teachers cared about my well-being and academics, and the principal was very fitting for the school. Others might complain about it being bad, but this school is small & a safe, family-like community. It's what you make of your experience while you're there. I just knew how to make the most of what I had.
I used to go the 32nd St and my experience was the worst. I was teased everyday by students and the teachers only care about getting paid. They don't even teach and do their jobs. The principal is impossible to get a hold of and the staff acts like they're superior and treated us like garbage. I loved the day when I left that school
I am a sophmore at this school and i can tell you im having the worst time of my life here. The teachers are their to get paid thats it. I literally see kids smoke in the back of the school and on the way to PE. Since I arrived at the school i Havent learned not one thing and surprisingly my CST have gone down dramatically. I had a almost Advance in Algebra 1 in middle school and a Far Below Basic in geometry taking the class there. I would rather take my chance at MANUAL ARTS.
32nd st is a really cool school, i been there since kinder and i love my school .there like my second family. all the teachers are wonderlful . mr.denicola is the best math teacher. And mr.william is a god teacher he teaches choir and he trys to make your voice better and this school is really important for me because this school is so protective. i love this school.and im planning t0 put my family there and more.

I have attended this school since 1st grade and i love the teachers. they really make sure that you understand what your learning especially Mrs. Smith. The staff is great and the principal is loving and caring. The school gives great oppurtunities and if your child is interested in participating in them then they have a chance.they also reward hard working children. i love my school!

I thought the school was very interesting, but during the years there were a lot of fights....also a lot of new middle school teachers have come.... I have been there since 6th grade and every year there are new teachers..... The staff gives an impression like they dont care and and only SOME of the teachers seem like they care and actually try to help the student pass the class..... Overall the school is satisfactory in my opinion. ^-^

My daughter has attended since 6th grade (she left a review as well). There has been a very high turn over in the principal's office in the past two years. Teacher quality is a crap-shoot. Last year was the worst with no communication regarding classroom performance whatsoever which led to her attending summer school for the first time. This year is much better with teachers emailing frequently. My daughter's English teacher this year is very focused on SAT and High School prep work. Miss Tate is helpful when you can reach her yourself. Miss Becker is always available and very helpful - but is not a miracle worker. Art and Music classes are plentiful, but repetitious and remedial. The proximity to USC does not offer any benefit to Middle School students and is a safety

i Love this school! I have been at this school since i was in the seventh grade. I currently go to USC MAST high school and it is a very good school!
—Submitted by a student
As a parent, I like the interaction of students as in a family: K to 12 grade. The youngest play with the older students and they know each other. Most interesting, students know who's parent is walking in the playground! However they need more classrooms for the high school.

Sue Becker is the greatest. She is very caring and goes above and beyond to make 32nd Street great!
—Submitted by a parent
My children were given the opportunity to attend 32nd Street USC in Sept 2003. Our decision (husband)for them to attend were based upon academic performance, API scoring and word of mouth from many parents. However I must say we have been very disappointed with the many turn-over of teachers, very little staff involvement, overwhelming elementary assignments, and the lack of middle school assignments. The API scoring has dropped dramatically. I must say in the beginning we were very pleased with this hiddent diamond. However I'm wondering if University of So. Cal (USC) is now embarrassed that this school bears its name. Mr. T the new principal has his work cut out for him. I pray things will turn around

I have not seen any academic improvement. To much tension throughout all staff. Its in great need of improvement in all educational & extracurricular activities. Its seems we are losing a lot of quality teachers in the past years. I hope to see some improvement with new principal. Much more parent involvement needed. My sons seems not to be challenge enough. More security throughout school. I have never come across in gang activity. Textbooks are need in class to avoid youth carrying them on a daily basis.
—Submitted by Norma Ibarra, a parent
Academically, this school was highly disappointing. I almost literally learned nothing during my time there. This school does not prepare students for high school, let alone college. Its writing and math programs are weak. There are hardly any extracurricular activities to partake in.
—Submitted by a former student
The academic program here will not prepare your child for college. It is weak and the environment is not intense. The the teachers do not challenge the students. The teachers don't really care how students are progressing. There is no SAT preparation. Just look at the API index and average SAT score. If you want your child to sit back and relax send him/her here!
—Submitted by a former student
I'm so disappointed with 32nd St. School. I thought that being a performing arts magnet there would be more offered by the school. If I would've known that this school graded so poorly for a performing arts school, I would've chosen another school. The teachers for the most part are not really interested in more than just getting by. There is no enthusiasm for the performing arts compared to other schools of the arts. Highly, highly disappointed!

In 2011-2012 California used the California Standards Tests (CSTs) to test students in English language arts in grades 2 through 11; math in grades 2 through 7; science in grades 5, 8 and 10; and history-social science in grades 8 and 11. Middle and high school students also took subject-specific CSTs in math and science, depending on the course in which they were enrolled. The CSTs are standards-based tests, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of California. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the tests.
The different student groups are identified by the California Department of Education; if there are fewer than 10 students in a particular group in a school, the state doesn't report data for that group.

In 2011-2012 California used the California High School Exit Exam (CAHSEE) to test high school students' skills in English language arts and mathematics. The results for grade 10 students taking the test for the first time are displayed on GreatSchools profiles. The CAHSEE is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined by the state of California. Students must pass all parts of the CAHSEE in order to graduate from high school. If they do not pass it the first time, students have multiple opportunities to retake the test. The goal is for all students to pass both sections of the test.

In 2011-2012 California used the California High School Exit Exam (CAHSEE) to test high school students' skills in English language arts and mathematics. The results for grade 10 students taking the test for the first time are displayed on GreatSchools profiles. The CAHSEE is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined by the state of California. Students must pass all parts of the CAHSEE in order to graduate from high school. If they do not pass it the first time, students have multiple opportunities to retake the test. The goal is for all students to pass both sections of the test.
The different student groups are identified by the California Department of Education; if there are fewer than 10 students in a particular group in a school, the state doesn't report data for that group.
