They say the district office exists to serve it schools and students. Corona-Norco Unified is shining example of this philosophy. On one side not the local sheriff is based here as well so don't speed around, but can't get a safer place to park. This is a busy facility that has grown over the years to accompany the increase in its student population as the communities around have expanded. I have always been greeted with a helpful and friendly staff here and find it pleasant when I have meetings here. If you do have meeting here there are plenty of locations either within a short walk or less than a 5 minute drive.

I'm really not sure what is wrong with this school and the district .... They really think parents…read moreand students aren't their problem. We were ignored for MONTHS when my daughter was in 8th grade - not knowing for sure if she was assigned to Norco for high school. When we finally got the notice she was enrolled, school had ended for the summer. My daughter wants to play sports. We have tried relentlessly to get ahold of the athletic department. Of course they don't call people back, they don't email people back and the school district plays games when you get to get a hold of someone who can help. The school makes you fill out an online form for medical clearance to play sports. You're supposed to upload a copy of the form to the site that is signed by the doctor. The process won't let you complete the application until the medical is attached. Wouldn't you know - my daughters medical clearance was denied because "no medical form attached". I took a screen shot of the website that shows the forms are uploaded in pdf form. I attached them to an email and requested someone review the denial. To date - we haven't been contacted and she is still showing as denied. I have tried to call the school and the school district to get assistance with this. They refuse to assist and place it back on the shoulders of the athletic department. It's insane to me that society demands teachers be held in high regard - but they don't even do the bare minimum of assisting families.

This school was a terrible experience for me. Even some of the rude students were kinder than many…read moreof my teachers. By my second week there, I already felt miserable. A lot of students acted like they could get away with anything, even being able to do so, while my friends and I would get in trouble for the smallest things. Many of the insecurities I struggle with started there. Some teachers would call students out publicly over minor issues, which only made things worse and made me more insecure about my issues. One of my classmates even broke my glasses, and when my mom and I spoke to the vice principal about it, it felt like she didn't care and even found the situation amusing. Thankfully, I had a few good friends who helped me get through the school year. There were constant fights in and outside the school, which made me afraid to report how I was being treated. Some students would hold their phones over restroom stalls to take pictures of other students and show them to their friends. I was one of the students targeted. Since then, that experience has continued to affect me, and every time I saw those students, they wanted to start problems or fight me. My time at this school had made a serious impact on my mental health for almost over a year. I took antidepressants, and at one point I attempted to take my own life. I understand that middle school can be difficult, but no student deserves to be treated this way. What makes it even more upsetting is that many students have shared similar experiences over the years, yet it seems like little was done to address them. (I also want to mention that this review is based on my experiences from 2021-2023. The school may have changed since then, and I hope it has improved for current students. However, I still felt it was important to speak out about the issues I personally experienced during my time there.)

I was a former student at this middle school (2016 to 2018), and looking back, I feel compelled to…read moreshare my experience, as it had a profound impact on my life. During my time here, I had high hopes of making friends, unfortunately that wasn't as planned. I remember coming into the school, hoping to make friends right off the bat, but it didn't quite turn out that way. I was surrounded by classmates who frequently displayed disruptive conduct, and I experienced peer pressure to imitate their antics in an effort to fit in, which just made me feel more out of place. I am a full Hispanic girl who, surprisingly, never learned to speak Spanish throughout my life.I also favored indoor activities to outdoor ones, which made me paler-skinned than some of my peers at the time. My appearance and lack of proficiency in the Spanish language became a target for ridicule. I was called names like "White" or told that I couldn't be Mexican because I couldn't speak Spanish. One particularly distressing incident stands out in my memory. I was assaulted by another student and had to be taken to the principal's office. Instead of finding support, my mom and I were met with hostility from the principal, who engaged in a confrontation with my mom. This ultimately led to my mom filing a police report, which, unfortunately, only made my situation worse. I became a target for more ridicule and even received threats at one point. The trauma from those years has stayed with me, but with time, I have grown older and more mature. I'm now attending a four-year university alongside my older sister, with the support of my dog and wonderful roommates who all love me just the way I am. It feels like the right time to share my experience with others, as a way of letting go of the past. Despite the challenges, there were a few bright spots during my time at the school. I cherish the very few individuals who saw the good in me and accepted me for who I am. Additionally, there was one special teacher who played a significant role in my life. not only my teacher but also became one of my best friends, providing the support I needed to make it through those difficult years. To that teacher, the one who picked me for student of the month, the one who let me (along with other students) sit in your classroom during lunch, you know who you are, if you are reading this, I am forever grateful for your kindness and friendship during my time in that hell hole.

This review is solely for the July 4th celebration…read more I was looking online for fireworks near my sister's and was happy to find out this school would be having them for the first time this year. Before, we would either drive out to Corona or Rancho Cucamonga, or we'd celebrate out where I live in L.A. However, L.A. is now moving towards drones which are boring in comparison to actual fireworks. I know drones are better for air quality and are reusable, but they're just not the same. There's something about hearing the loud bangs and the surprise of what colors and forms will come next. With drones, they're silent and there's no spontaneity, just tight formations. Anyway, I was so happy that there'd be actual fireworks here. We got there a few hours before the 9pm fireworks because I knew there'd be food trucks and entertainment beforehand. Parking was free and easy since they have a few big parking lots. Once the fireworks were over, though, it was a nightmare because no one was directing traffic and everyone was leaving at the same time. At one point I had 2 cars from different directions trying to get in front of me so that we made a Y. Meanwhile, people were walking and squeezing past. It was so dangerous and an accident waiting to happen. There were metal detectors and security guards at the entrances which made the event feel safe. We also saw an ambulance truck parked close to where the fireworks would be as a precaution. The singer of the Journey cover band said that the event was planned out as early as January and you could tell the organizers put a lot of work into it. Everything was laid out into sections: food, shopping, games, a car show, Porta Potties, the stage, and the gated off area where the fireworks would be. We were easily entertained for the few hours we were there before the fireworks. That being said, I know that this was this event's first year and they really went all out. My worry is that they'll start cutting costs as years go on and it won't be as good anymore. In the meantime, I'm hoping to make it a tradition for us to come here for July 4th every year from now on...Unless I remember how much I dreaded the parking situation and decide it's not worth it or they switch to drones or both.

Nice and large gym, plenty of free parking, and very friendly, welcoming volunteer staff…read more My family, friends, and I visited this gym for a high school playoff game. The gym itself is of a good size, but the challenge for our school (Bishop Amat High School) is that we roll deep, meaning we have a HUGE fan base, which results in a very large turnout of support for all events affiliated with the school. The challenge at this gym was that there were not enough seats to accommodate everyone, which was not the school's fault, as they did their best to accommodate our school. THANK YOU! As far as our school is concerned, we won the game and now move on to the CIF Division II Championship game next Friday night.
