Students are complete ladies and gentlemen from K through 8th grade. It's so neat to hear substitutes and visitors comment on the 'great behavior' of our students when they visit or when students leave campus for field trips and events. I love that the bar is set for great acheivement and behavior for all students and they are encouraged to reach those goals through loving, firm and collaborative learning. The teachers actually like students and teaching and it shows in the behavior and learning of the students, and those dreaded test and test scores meeting the challenges set before them each and every time. Cortez has been open for 3 years and each year get's better.
Cortez has lived up to my expectations and more. The teachers take pride in their work and tell me that they have a great sense of teamwork among them. I believe it when I see how they interact with their coworkers and with the students. Discipline is strict, and I feel that helps students feel safe on their campus. At the same time, the students can tell that their teachers and the staff at Cortez really care about them as individuals. It's an excellent environment for learning.
As a parent volunteer at Cortez, I've been able to see that the day to day campus environment is consistently safe, nurturing, and motivational for student learning. Not only academic learning but also social learning.
Cortez is fantastic in every respect. Principal Alvarez has a clear vision of the school she wants to create and seems to strongly lead teachers, staff, students, and parents to get there. We couldn't be happier.
