Great School! Come see for yourself. There will be a Spotlight on TVCS on February 28th @ 4pm. Stop by and see why parents are lined up to get into this school!
An incredible school in every way. The teachers are great and the principal is tough on those that need it. Very high achievers at this school. Thank you TVCS!
What an excellent school! EVERY teacher has to be credentialed or they cannot be employed by the district. All teachers are district employees. My children have many opportunities at this school. They are exposed to music, PE, art, Spanish, and character education. The principal is very friendly and my children have never been singled out as they know how to behave appropriately, I am glad that those that do not follow the rules are exposed for the better education of those that want to be there. The level of instruction is high and I am honored to be a part of TVCS!
This school is so not to my liking. I have had nothing but problems with the "principal"..she singles kids out as well as families. In fact just recently at the "general meeting" a lot of parents want her fired! This tells me a lot. At one point she yelled at a few of my kids alone, and this is just wrong, if you have a problem with a student, you should contact the parents! I look forward to my kids going to a different school next year, I am soo tired of all of the drama at this school. The middle school teachers are also very difficult to deal with, not all of them...just some. The ladies in the front office are great, very nice and helpful.
There is a reason why TVCS score s are consistently high on the API test year after year, after year In that alone, it speaks for itself! Keep up the good work TVCS! We parents applaud you for all your effort & dedication to our children!
The school governs itself and you are basically without any other recourse. They have to renew their charter every year through the District; if you have a problem they don't want you to go through the District. Their relationship is so sensitive with them that you are basically on your own. The school does not focus on the Developmental Stages of a child. Three times and you're out. That's it. Not all the teachers are credentialed, only for the core subjects. It's a Mickey Mouse operation with a very limited budget and like with most schools in California, they cheapen our children's education by saving money on who they hire, substitute teachers vs. tenured teachers, non credentialed vs. credentialed. If you don't mind walking on eggs all the time and annoying parents that put their paws into everything, then this might be the school for you.
This school is exactly what I wanted for my daughter. Teachers are creative, open-minded, caring and challenging. Our family is thankful to be a part of this school because it really is all about the whole family being involved. Unlike any school I have ever seen! We love TVCS!
I love this school because it is truly a community. Parents volunteer in the school and we help make a difference. My children love going to school and look forward to their breaks being over! I know a great number of the kids at this school because I spend a lot of loving time there
Our school is the best because we have a principal and teachers who love their jobs, love the students, and are invested in giving them the best education possible!
It's awesome students. So bright and eager!
