I was a former teacher there for over 8 years. I am not a disgruntled employee, as I stayed there…read morefor over 8 years. I have since moved on to a better private school in the area. I know the school leadership inside and out. The poor rating is due to a lack of professionalism throughout the organization. Everything from the church to the school, the academic rigor, the disciplinary standards, the facilities, the maintenance, the food for staff and students, the leadership, are all well below average. I regret that my child had to endure 4 years of this school.

Mother Of Our Redeemer is an utterly abysmal institution, and you would be wise to shield your…read moreoffspring from its gates. While their promotional imagery presents a polished facade, the reality within those walls is downright dreadful. Mrs. Casariego, the principal, does absolutely nothing but smirk for the cameras, peddling the blatant lie that this is an excellent academy. She squanders resources upgrading her own lavish office while remaining willfully blind to her atrocious faculty. This establishment desperately requires a complete purge of both its leadership and teaching staff. In fact, the notoriously abrasive Mrs. Torres was rightfully terminated by the school board because she was a walking catastrophe. Furthermore, the educators here do not teach; they simply spoon-feed the students. Mr. Terron, my son's math teacher, habitually plastered the answer keys directly on the board because he lacks the competence to actually instruct. My children pay excellent attention and earn straight A's in every other subject, yet math yielded an F solely due to this wretched instruction. My son was an advanced honor roll student at his previous school, but this place tanked his record and cost him his accolades. To make matters worse, the music teacher, Ms. Natasha, treated my daughter with pure hostility. The staff only dropped their fake acts and confessed to the school's internal rot during the summer when I announced our departure. My children used to pile into the car looking utterly miserable every single day, and their joy only returned the moment I pulled them out of that environment. To top it all off, the physical facility itself is utterly filthy. Watch how quickly the administration scrambles to delete this review, simply because they cannot handle the unvarnished, disgraceful truth.

The teachers do not actually teach. The students are simply given the answers. You think the kids…read moreare extremely smart and doing well until you ask them to explain how to solve the homework they bring home. When doing homework, they are lost on how to do the work. When asked, they say the teacher just gives them the answer without explaining how to do it. Many parents have noticed the same thing in all grade levels not one specific grade or teacher. It is clear the students are struggling, and there is a real problem. Parents have spoken among themselves and agree this is a repeated issue. I do not believe the problem is that it's a religious school, the real issue is that the teachers do not know how to teach and choose not to or are not qualified. All of the students are behind academically, and it's hard to realize at first, because on paper their grades look perfect but in reality, they are struggling and its just a made up grade. I would put 0 stars if I could. I am happy to say I have saved my child from the school by removing them but now comes the real work to make up for all the time of learning lost here.

I've sent my kids here and I must say this is a phenomenal school. Lead by the most wonderful and…read morebrilliant leader Barbara Picazo. I had to leave a review due to Principals Day and there's no other woman nor person I'd want my kids to look up to as a leader in a Catholic community. Ms. Picazo is the definition of a true Catholic. She is a driving force in showing what it means to do what Jesus would do. If I had to choose what school to send my little kiddos to all over again, I wouldn't hesitate to pick OLL. Go Cheetahs!

We have sent two of our kids to OLL & our experience with Barbara Picazo has been disappointing. If…read moreyou are raising a child of color - as long as she is the principal, this is not the school for you. The first place your child will be singled out and experience discrimination is at school by Barbara Picazo. She has consistently demonstrated this behavior, she has biases and preferences towards students and she will target young boys of color. Considering the current state of the world, one would think that a catholic school and archdiocese would hire faculty that create a safe space for our children. It's been quite the opposite with BarbaraPicazo. Also - did anyone else notice that she is the person with the most complaints on these reviews? This pattern speaks for itself. What a shame!
