I went to this school from 1973-1979 (kindergarten through 5th grade). I have nothing but great…read morememories of the staff, my education and sense of community the school had. My teachers Mrs. Davis & Mrs. Reagle (Kindergarten), Mrs. Drawbond (1st), Mrs. Miles (2nd), Mrs. Sullivan (3rd), Mrs. Huey (4th) and Mr. Soelter (5th) were all outstanding educators, mentors and people. The principal, Dr. Cosgrove, was a great person as well. Even the custodian, Fred, was a great guy and would entertain us all at the yearly Ice Cream Social with his barbershop quartet. The school has grown in size over the years and changes are visible from the 40 years ago I was there. But I would bet it is still a great place for young minds to get a great start on their education.

Something happened with the bully, and I got in trouble for it, when I was the innocent one in the situation. I felt like I had no support or anyone willing to help me. The after-school program (DFEO - Downey Foundation for Educational Opportunities) was very terrible! The after-school program teachers would make me feel horrible about myself, and I know hate is a strong word, but I HATED the site coordinator!!!!! And I'm not gonna drop names, but her name started with an L. She had me so jacked up in the head, I didn't even know what was right anymore. I do not encourage you to send your kids to this horrible school. I would want nothing bad to happen to the next generation of children. This is not even everything that has happened to me at this school. I could go on forever.

I was very concerned by what I observed during recess. I was a bystander sitting in my car eating…read morewhen I overheard a staff member repeatedly yelling at the children to be quiet. The tone felt unnecessarily harsh. I understand that supervising many kids at once can be challenging--I have six years of experience working in children's ministry--but there are respectful and effective ways to communicate with kids without raising your voice excessively. Children deserve patience, guidance, and a calm environment where they feel safe and supported, especially during unstructured times like recess. Hearing that level of yelling was upsetting and made me question the approach being used. Because of this experience, I would not feel comfortable recommending this school at this time. I encourage parents to observe and ask questions to ensure the environment aligns with how they want their children to be treated and supported. Poor children , do they really need a loud speakerphone to speak to children? I mean their ears are not even developed like ours. My voice would be enough. Whoever was yelling was also using one of those things that coaches use. I'm not sure what it's called. I will be speaking to Dr.kacou since I called the office wanting to speak to her hopefully this matter is resolved
