    I attended this charter school from 5th grade through my senior year. Many of the teachers…read moregenuinely cared about their students and made a positive impact on my education. Unfortunately, my experience with the administration was very different. Beginning in my freshman year, I experienced repeated sexual harassment both in person and online. I, along with other students, reported these incidents expecting them to be taken seriously. Instead, the administration's response left many of us feeling dismissed and unsafe. What was initially supposed to be an anonymous report quickly turned into a meeting where the students who reported the harassment were placed in the same room as the large group of boys who had made them feel unsafe. Rather than focusing on the repeated harassment that had been reported, we were told, "In a professional workplace, you'd be the one getting in trouble." We were also told that the administration had heard rumors that students were considering leaving because of these incidents, followed by the statement, "That won't be happening. Every student here will walk this stage at graduation." As students, we left that meeting feeling that protecting the school's reputation was more important than addressing the concerns we had brought up. Being told to "stop causing issues" instead of having our reports taken seriously was incredibly discouraging. I recognize that schools may not be able to share every detail of an investigation, and I am not commenting on what actions may or may not have happened behind the scenes. My issue is with how the students who came forward were treated. The response we received made many of us feel unsupported, invalidated, and less willing to report future incidents. This led me to transfer to a public school, where my experience was much better. I am really grateful for the few teachers who listened, showed compassion, and did everything they could to support me and my classmates. However, based on my personal experience, I cannot recommend this school because I do not believe the administration handled reports of student harassment in a way that prioritized student safety.

    I think that there was a mistake on the titles of "Clark County School District", here on Yelp…read more Many Schools were not specified by the official name. It is was very difficult to find the actual physical addresses of the CCSD due to this mistake. I am feeling Optimistic about the direction that the Clark County School District is taking. With this new Superintendent in place, Jhone Ebert; a former teacher. I really like her overall stance. I've seen her on the local news. I've gotten the email messages; there was a Going Back To School guide, as well as various Back To School Fairs, located at the major malls. Jhone Ebert has such positive messages for us parents in Clark County. There is a new energy at the Clark County School District. In her "Welcome Back" message the Superintendent announced that all CCSD students would be getting free Breakfast and free Lunch.

Parents considering enrollment for their children should reconsider. The staff exhibits a troubling level of disrespect and unprofessionalism. It is imperative for the district to evaluate the leadership, particularly that of Assistant Principal Amanda Alcala, whose inconsistent approach and zero accountability have contributed to a negative atmosphere.

    One of my younger cousins go here, and he absolutely loves it, and from what I can tell, this is a…read morereally great school. All my little cousin talks about is about motivated mustangs and the different clubs to join. He also tell me about all the sports divisions they provide. Every time that I pick him up from school, he talks about what he learns. Yeah they are kinda learning things that could maybe be put off a year, but it's good because it's beneficial for their learning and if they're good at hard stuff now, they'll be a pro at it later. That's what I think the plan is here at Mater Academy Mountain Vista. The teachers are also very understanding and cooperative including coaches. Especially Ms. Shelton (2022) I believe she's the volleyball coach, and I hear she does a lot more than that. She's the music teacher, sports manager, elementary student council president. It's so many things that these teachers do to show they are committed into their job and they're willing to take the time to work with students and help them be the best they can be. Mrs. Carbajah (2022) is a wonderful lady and she makes this school great ! From what I hear she's been here at this school since the beginning and has helped it improve over the years. This shows even more how committed all the staff of Mater Academy is. I also love how they have socials to keep families posted on the daily of what going on. This school is just truly amazing and honestly I wish I went here as a kid.

    don't take your kid there because the teachers are rude and I I had a meeting with the teacher…read morebecause supposedly my son threw food at lunch and I saw the and he didn't even throw the food. He literally gave someone food and it was the job or the principal's job to know that he didn't throw food. The other child said he did so that's why you shouldn't send your kid there. It's not good at all, and my the teacher kept on saying she was gonna principal because he was being not even mean, he was literally saying I don't wanna be your friend to one of his friends and literally in first grade and in the other told the teacher and the teacher saying she's gonna tell the principal to my son, so that's why I took him that school and now he is in

    Reading the two reviews from years ago and it's sad because nothing has changed. The ladies in the…read morefront office are so rude and act like they cannot be bothered to do their job. Or even have a little compassion. If you hate your job get another one. Don't work with children. I dropped off supplies for my daughter's birthday celebration and they acted like it's such a hassle to call the teacher up to grab it. The Safekey "teacher" is running a military camp. Screams at the children and if they so much as look at one another during reading time (which is half the morning, who wants to read all morning before class??) she will embarrass your student by yelling at them. The ONLY saving grace about this school is Mrs. Ayala. Thankfully my daughter has a few short months left at this school and we're out. If you have options, send your kids somewhere else.

    This school don't deserve to be called a school! From the day I enrolled my child I seen the funny…read moreacting ways towards parents and children. I ignored it, until my child came home and said he had the worse day ever his teacher always yells and another child snatched his belongings and the teacher took his recess away because he was unaware of the rules. They get out at 3:26 and if you are not there in 5 minutes they will take your child to the office which they hate to deal with them will call you before 4:00 and speak to you crazy like you abandoning your child there they are so unorganized from the office to the class room it's upsetting they don't provide buses for kids here my son is not happy here at all!!!!
