Mesa Verde Elementary School

I am very disappointed in just about everything at Mesa. The school has NO communication with parents. Several times I have tryed to contact the teacher in my sons class. only to recieve a return email... I offer to volenteer in the class room 3 times this year and I am told "We are fine and there is no need for you to come in" There are no phone calls home to me when my son is recieving an award at the monthy award ceremony! Also never ever has had a fieldtrip or even tried to participate in on campus reading programs readly availible to all area schools. Not to mention the monthly parent coffee ( what a joke!) they had to bring in a translater just for me! and then had many side discussions without translating? I thought this might just be a 1 time thing so I went again sevel months later...same thing..sorry I think that is rude. I have to say they have a very nice office staff. this school over all is a big thumbs down! booooooooo :(

This school has some wonderful teachers. It also has some teachers that should have retired many years ago. (Not because of their age, because of their attitude.) They are impatient and do not seem to have any tolerance for children. The reason behind this is that there is no accountability by the Principal. She lets the teachers behave in whatever manner they want to. She does not get involved. The teachers that are fantastic, are fantastic because they are teachers that truly care and love what they are doing, not because they are held accountable for it.
