Arroyo Vista Charter has been our home for the past 7 years! My oldest started Kinder in 2015 then…read moremy middle and Youngest followed shortly after! I couldn't be more happy with the attention to detail and care that my children are provided each day! Having three children at Arroyo Vista means we have had many teachers and I could honestly say each one has been AMAZING! I wish I could name them all but it would be a LONG list! Thank you to all the Staff at Arroyo Vista for your commitment to teaching our children and setting the standards high!

So far my experience with this school has been positive all the way around…read more My son loves it here. He's made so many new friends. When it's the weekend, he tells me he can't wait to go back! I mean, who says that if coming here is really so terrible? His grades can be better however; and the after school tutoring has been of great help. And if this school is "ghetto", you must be walking around with your eyes closed because this is one of the nicest neighborhoods I have ever seen. If the previous reviewers are talking about the other students, on the other hand, well, I can't make any judgments on them. Yes, parking when dropping off and picking up can get crowded and frustrating, but I find that if you can arrive a bit earlier than most, it won't be that bad.

THESE TEACHERS ARE ALL MORONS!!! so my experience was that the teachers weren't helping me at all…read moreespecially ms. Fimbers and ms antick. Only teacher that was helping was Mr Godwin but eventually I got taken out of the school. And before winter break the principal was supposed to call to enroll me back in and he never called so we have to call him after the break so i could get in rolled not to me too. The P.E teacher didn't care I was about to pass out i to,d him I needed a break he didn't care. So I don't recommend this school and the office has a bad attitude. Don't recommend

It is a specialty school for kids who need a more comfortable environment to learn. The staff is amazing and professional and friendly. We make the kids feel relaxed.

I attended this school in 2014 for my freshman year and didnt even finish the school year when I…read morewas already begging my parents to pull me out. It was a horrible experience Specifically because of the history teacher I got. A crazy blue eyed, brown hair,white woman who thought she could keep kids after class, lock them in her class and verbally abuse them. I reported her immediately after one incident but the school never took action. Not one single meeting with her. Im so thankful I was moved to a better school and im sorry for any kid that went through what I went through. Hope that maniac isnt a teacher anymore. No adult should ever treat teens the way she treated me or be a teacher. This school should do psych tests on their teachers before hiring them.

This school is supposed to be the best high school in Chula Vista in terms of academic performance…read more It may be, but not due to the counseling department for sure. I have emailed my kiddo's counselor with a question. No response! They do the bare minimum for their job. The counselors are terrible at this school! Support at this school definitely doesn't rival those at north county schools. There are some great teachers here where you can see their passion for teaching. They tend to be AP teachers, of course. The math teachers don't really stand out. I'm not going to name names but there is a math teacher that didn't respond to any emails from parents who had emailed them with concerns. One student reported this math teacher was helping them with a math problem while simultaneously playing Pokémon Go. This was after school, though. Maybe the teacher was THAT good, doing two things at the same time but students need respect, not just teachers. The 504 process was great though, I liked the fact that most teachers show up for the 504 meetings. Thanks, caring teachers, for your support of kids with disabilities. They just spent a lot of $ sprucing up the campus and it is looking pretty nice!

A young girls chance to walk and graduate were taken from her due to made up policies that were later overturned by the school district. A young lady did not get to walk graduation because she wore lei's that were passed down in generations at past families graduations. What a horrible school to be apart of!

We spent three years at Otay Ranch Academy for the Arts, and the warning signs were there from year…read moreone. During our first year, a teacher walked my daughter to the car to report she had pushed another child off the bleachers. When I asked my daughter what happened, she explained she acted first because the other child was about to push her off. The teacher's expectation that a child in that moment should call a "time out" and run and tell him instead of defending herself showed a fundamental lack of common sense. The principal repeatedly failed to protect my daughter from serious harassment. When two older boys bullied her, the administration did nothing despite multiple reports until the situation became physical on the playground and I was forced to send the police to intervene--an inaction that violated the state's anti-bullying mandates and demonstrated deliberate indifference. My daughter was not the only victim of these students, yet the school protected the aggressors instead of the victims. The final straw was the Title IX violation involving the girls' bathroom. The school's policy allowed a biological male student to use the girls' restroom, compromising my daughter's privacy and safety. When my daughter simply asked what he was doing there--a completely reasonable question--she was removed from class and dragged into the vice principal's office. Rather than correcting the policy to protect female students, the principal chose to shield staff and the school's legal liability, and the retaliation only intensified after I filed complaints. The school offered a bathroom some distance away as an "accommodation," which was completely impractical being located too far from her classroom. We ultimately filed a federal Title IX complaint with the U.S. Department of Education Office for Civil Rights (case #09253077) due to the school's deliberate indifference. Beyond these safety failures, the school suffers from poor leadership and resource management. Despite a large park directly behind the school, our children were confined to an asphalt playground nearly all year and were allowed to touch the grass exactly once--on the second to last day of school. The neighboring school uses that park regularly. Even the sixth-grade graduation was held outside on the asphalt instead of in the building's auditorium. This is the same school that was featured on Fox 5 San Diego for placing children in tents during extreme heat because of space mismanagement. The only reason this school remains open is a handful of truly excellent, caring teachers. But good educators cannot compensate for an administration that endangers children's safety, retaliates against families who advocate for their kids, and prioritizes liability over student welfare. We have pulled our children out of ORAA, and I strongly caution other parents to look elsewhere until there is a complete overhaul of leadership.

They have alot of autistic kids and cant take care of them, they are always too loud and i cant focus , the lunch made 4 girls throw up, also when my class was taking picture for the year book, the people that were taking the pictures were touching the kids inappropriately and they used the same comb for each kids. I do NOT recommend this school

Currently my child is struggling in school. I have not always liked how some teachers and…read moreadministrators can be at schools. This school so far has been exceptional in how they are taking care of business for my child. There is no sugar coating of the situation, the teachers are hands on in helping my child and I get through this tough time and I feel blessed to have them as my village helping me right now. I think that Anna Pedroza, who is the current Principal is amazing as a leader to her teachers, her students and their parents. She is to be commended for her job as being in "charge" of so many students and faculty must be a hard job and she works her job to the core taking care of it all. Thank you Rancho Del Rey Middle School for helping my child out in her time of need for her education.

We have gone other times where they do have like a really robust snack Bar situation happening. Who knows maybe the parents didn't have enough time to get this together which is fine.

The bathrooms are well maintained and I do appreciate that the floor is perfect for Basketball. there are a lot of bleachers here. It is a very big basketball or volleyball gym or whatever sport that they're hosting.
