Placerita is a wonderful school. The teachers care to make each student successful. Communication between the school and parent is excellent!
The principal and counselors at Placerita do little to help those students with special needs. We found the counselor and psychologist unwilling to help our nephew. During IEP's certain teachers were unwilling to make modifications or understand the special needs child. We were given excuses such as, 'We already have 220 students in our RSP program.' The counselor also indicated a lack of concern that he skipped a week of classes because he 'he wasn't failing.' Our experience with Placerita was very disappointing.
Very crowded school. Teachers are hit or miss. Some teachers are wonderful, others brand new. Band teacher is just the best in the state of ca!
This School needs to show more improvment. Its Terribly unorganized.In its second year running.Its produced the worse test scores in the history of schools.I think this school needs a better prinipal and a better faculty.
