Charter School of Excellence

"I've went to this school for 3rd to 5th with Joelle Horsford at this school and it was great. yeah the teachers may be strict but they do it for the best for the students here. especially with the new principal Ms.dyer she has ran this school really well in her first year as principal. She is very understanding and makes sure everyone is happy and working hard to achieve and graduate to middle school. We went to many great field trips and field day was the best experience in my elementary experience. So i hope somebody who works at the school sees my review and hope that new parents thinking to enroll their child here. the bad reviews were outdated with the old principal but with the new one i am sure you will be glad to enroll your child here! So i hope the principal sees this review so she can truly see how much this school has improved. from, Santiago"

"Very disappointed with the rules of this school. Nowhere in your parent handbook or code of conduct states that you can keep students belongings until the end of the year. My husband and I are withdrawing my 4th grade daughter out of the school for the over abuse of power against my daughter and to us her parents from the horrible principal. We are very hurt about the way the principal has talked to us and has not tried to solve this situation the smoothest way possible. She is very mean and not professional at all. Mrs Rosa Dyer is not a good person. She is a bully, super unprofessional and a very disrespectful woman. Do not worry that God sees everything and everything bad you do here in earth you pay in earth. Although I have to say that Miss Angie Bonilla the office manager is the only good and respectful person in that school. The gentleman that takes care of the school drive thru morning or afternoon has always a nasty attitude. The teacher my daughter had very unprofessional as well. So happy that we are changing the school. Please do not make the same mistake as I did of choosing this school. Is not a hood environment. The bus driver is another horrible story. She abuses the kids by yelling at them. The kids are afraid of her. DO NOT CHOOSE THIS SCHOOL PLEASE."

"The principle w/ the sh*tty attitude is no longer there. Yeah! My son was in kindergarten last year and he pied on himself cause the teacher refused to send him to the bathroom. So I called his teacher to discuss what happened and she told me that she didn't know anything about that may it was another teacher. The next day, when my son got to school that principle called and questioned him more like intimidation and he got so scared that he couldn't even answer her. Some of the teachers tell the kids if they don't behave they were going to send them to the principle and get in trouble. . So the kids became soooo afraid of her. Who does that? That's why he couldn't answer her. She had no compassion for the kids. She never said good morning to the kids or certain parents. She look at you from head to toes and keep walking. Academically, she could have been a good principle but her demeanor and temperament showed that she can't be teaching small kids. Ms. Angie is the nicest person there. I hope the new principle is everything that the old principle wasn't."

"My daughter has been going there since kindergarten. She had amazing teachers from k through 2nd grade. Unfortunately after this school year I will be removing her. I've made numerous complaints about the principle and nothing was done. She has no heart for the kids and shouldn't be in that position. She always has a miserable demeanor and speaks very rudely. She never greets the kids or parents, she walks pass them. I've had 2 incidents where on field day, she refused for the kids to eat and it was already pass 12.30pm, at that time my child was in kindergarten. The other time my child lunch account went into red, and they took the food from in front of her and left her with nothing to eat all day, and then claimed that they called me. When I confronted the principle on this matter she said she can't and she won't give them anything if the account goes in red. The last incident she was extremely rude and told me I can remove my child the same day if I like. She has no interest in the children's benefit, she treats her staff poorly. For this reason a lot of teachers left this year. The only person who is a sweetheart at that school is the receptionist Miss Angie, she truly cares. She should have been the principle of that school, she has the etiquette and knows how to communicate with others. Please think twice before considering this school. It's a A rated school that is for sure but the experience is horrible."

"The only good thing this school has in Mrs Angie in the front office. I will always appreciate all the help she provided me and my kids. But I prefer a public school 100 times before this Charter school."
