Knowing he's safe and celebrated here means the world to us. I also want to give a special congratulations to his amazing friend and loving boyfriend, Kaden. Kaden has been by his side through some very hard times, showing kindness, patience, and loyalty. It's beautiful to see the way they support each other. Thank you, Durfee Elementary, for being more than just a school--you are a community that truly helps kids grow into who they are meant to be. Special thanks to KP

This school is Amazing. I began working here as a teachers aide two weeks ago. The teachers for…read morePre-K Special needs are so caring. They are passionate about each kid. They also listen!! To the kids . They go the distance to let each child know they are special, unique and loved. I would want teachers like this for my children. I'm sure each child's growth and life will be blessed by the teachers here. Out of every school I've worked for this school genuinely cares for the well being, growth and nurturing for kids. I've seen it with the kids and STAFF in the playground as well. The kids aren't rude, I've walked around and many of them speak to me and waive and say Goodmorning and if some had bad experience they should remember children are still growing and learning from the Staff and parents. I truly hope this school continues to flourish with great STAFF that will provide a safe and pleasant environment. I Sure would appreciate that if I was a kid or student again

Communication in this school is even worse, I've called the office multiple times looking for answers and I get answer by the front office with the worst attitude besides that mid sentence I am speaking and I just get cut off and get a response like if its not there job too provide me with and answers. Also my daughter had an appointment where my wife went in and the principal brings up this statement that never happened " I remember when dad was afraid too leave her here when it was her first year of school and I assure him everything was going to be okay " this never happened my daughter had already started school before attending baker . Let's not get started with fundraisers, kids are supposed to have fun like selling cookies too our families but no. It's the opposite from that starting with " dance-athon " where families give the kids money too watch them dance. Like really? Worst experience as a parent. There's are other school in the area ,please look for another one!

She has thrown a students backpack…read moreand smacked a students hand, the student has claimed to have told the office about the situation. What did they do? Nothing of course, the office ladys are incredibly self centered and never take any of the students word and assume they are lying. This science teacher has had multiple complaints from students, my friend's daughter has also been called stupid and annoying by her which if you ask me is not teacher etiquette, she expects to have respect from students when she can't even give them any respect herself.

I'm so proud to be a parent at Cherrylee Chargers. My son is queer, and from the very beginning,…read moreevery single teacher and staff member supported him fully for who he is. They didn't just "accept" him--they celebrated him. It means so much as a parent to know your child can show up to school as their authentic self without fear or hesitation. The teachers went out of their way to make sure he felt included, respected, and safe, and that kind of environment is priceless. Thank you, Cherrylee Chargers, for standing behind our kids and embracing diversity. You've shown me that this school is not just about academics, but also about raising kind, compassionate, and confident young people. He is the one on the left!
