These reviews were written at least two years ago, when Dr. Vernita Vallez was the principal. Now, two years after she left, the school is not a bit more special than your neighborhood public school. The current principal has only a bachelor's degree and from another country! She has never been to school in the US and is not very knowledgeable about the system. I'm a mother of a former student at the school, and can say that I am very disappointed in the school. I believe my child will do just as great or even better at another school, where all the teachers actually have a teaching degree!
Because Escuela de Guadalupe serves a population that is ofter overlooked.
I have one child who just finished at Escuela and another that is there in 2nd grade. This school has met and exceeded any expectations I have had. The graduate program is amazing, and it's wonderful to see how my older child excels in another school after leaving Escuela. Truelly a amazing school and community.
Escuela de Guadalupe meets *every* aspect of what we want in a school for our children: - dual-language instruction; - strong academic standards and enforcement; - a mixture of cultures and backgrounds; - high level parent involvement We also see our daughter learning ever more about the 'intangibles' that we feel are just as important in life, but sometimes overlooked at school: - respect for those who teach us, those from other cultures, those with other lifestyles and from other socio-economic backgrounds; - an understanding of larger concepts: community, the environment, the world, God and faith; - an appreciation of family, friends, government, the arts; - a strong curiosity, to think for oneself, and to ask questions.
