Sequoia Charter Schools K-12

"My son has been attending 5 years. It is a great learning environment. He enjoys being there. The staff has always been great! We are grateful for this school!"

"Worst transportation department ever. Theyre drivers have no supervisor so the just act how they want. When you call in the Hispanic lady curses at you in Spanish she CC laims that her supervisor is never there. They change the routes slightly everyday then say we have to be there 15 min early anyway. Wow get a grip start managing your staff!"

"My kids have to wait for their bus near a homeless encampment where they actively use drugs. When I made a complaint they moved the bus about a hundred yards further up the street near an APS canal. These things are huge adults have drown in them really that's super smart.. Now they say they are down drivers it's currently 8:50 am bus was supposed to pick the up at 7:14. Carla from transportation says they need to wait the bus will be there shortly. So my kids miss 1 hr 45 mins of class time every day. Nice! Carla had the nerve to say "well maybe you should drive them everyday instead" wow how does this lady have a job. Sorry for bothering her she clearly has better things to do. Wish Sequoia had better Transportation because the teacher are AWESOME."

"This place does not support its Teachers, Students or put funds they receive back into growing the children. Many classes do not have even have text books. Elective classes are not given school funds to enrich their atmosphere or quality of program. I would not put my child at this school."

"This was a great school when Mrs Cubley and Celestine ran it. I think we all had our disagreements but no matter Mrs Cubley still treated the kids fairly no matter what horrible thing they may have done. But now with Mrs Lori Graham in charge this school has gone down hill. She never gave at least my kids a shot at all, she was judging them strictly on what Mrs Bassler had told her about my kids. So Lori came in with this attitude towards my kids. And it has gotten even worse. She was finally able to get my 11th grade daughter out of school on a suspension but now my 7 year old is being bullied by a student whose mother is a teacher at the school. Well my 7 year did not want to go to class because of this little girl bullying her and hitting on her. So what did the school do? They took away my 7 year olds solo performance because she didnt want to go to class where this little girl was bullying her. Way to go Mrs Graham you sure know how to protect the students. As long as they aren't black students or students you don't like you are a protector. Mrs Graham has discusse my older daughters student file with other parents she has even gone so far as too tell other parents to keep their child away from mine. My daughter has been in 1 fight in all her school years and Mrs Graham has shared this info with others. A parent who I never ever met before overheard Mrs Graham screaming at my daughter not yelling but screaming and had my daughter ask me to call her to discuss Mrs Graham actions. My kids have been here forever and until Mrs Graham came along I would have never thought of my kids not attending this school. Please take it from me DO NOT PUT YOUR KIDS @ SAA."
