So happy that the two campuses are better unified, thanks to the new principal. The school needed strong leadership and the school has become better as a result. Most of the teachers care, but the younger ones really don't have their heart in it like every teacher should. Overall, it is now a great school again.
As a parent of a child in spec ed, I find that the district as a whole is not very accomadating to children and different learning abilites. As for the teachers, I love them, they are for the kids, however, they are not educated on children who have learning disabilites. The new principal does not leave a good impression either.
At the end of second grade there were children in my kids class who could not read first grade level books without help. We spend time every day with our child studying and reading, she felt that most of 2nd grade was boring and was not a challenge. When we asked about having her put into an advanced class we were told GATE was full to be happy with next year s teacher. The district office told us that if our child needed more of a challenge to stop working with her at home. This was the head of elementary education for the Orange district that told us this. We want our child to excel not be mediocre but it seems that both the school and the district have mediocrity as their goal. We are working to get our child out of the school.
