You see, my friend and I had to drive here to take our SAT and the inside was lovely. it had clean…read moreindoors, nice classrooms and very nice bathrooms as well as very cool and well placed lockers; however, we exited through the back door of the 100s building because it was closest to us and then we realised that there was no way back in. We were stuck outside in the rain, fenced in like rabbits with no way to get to our car. We opted to go around and under these metal railings to stay out of the rain and almost fell many times. After we ran out of railings to go under we reached another entrance and it too was locked. We then realised we were completely trapped since all of the metal fending was locked and we opted to climb over one of the shorter fences to break free. we did so in the rain. We were able to make it back eventually looking like wet rats and unscathed but I hope I don't have to fence climb at this school anytime soon.

I have…read morenever been to this school, but from what I read and what just recently happened with a student that went there....I'm thinking it may be true....staff not caring and not paying attention.

First, the good news: Mr. Chohaan is the best teacher my son…read morehas ever had. He deserves 5+ stars. Not only did he get to know my son, he cared about his well being and academic success. He went above and beyond to make classes engaging, fun and exciting for his students and fun had field trips throughout the year too. My son *loves* him, and all of his students do too. And the bad: I recently had surgery to remove a disc that was fused to my spinal cord. The surgery also removed the remainder of the entire disc from between my vertebrae (L4-L5) at UC Davis by Dr. Kee Kim at the Spine Center in Sacramento on 8/25/2018. Recently it became re-injured, thus making it very difficult for me to move again. The entire office staff knows this, including the Vice Principal Mr. Cooley. My appointment at UC Davis is not until early April, so until then I have to somehow deal. Physical therapy is starting soon. I am also a full-custody single-mother with no child support, in my final year at Chico State University and currently working with a Yuba College professor to open a non-profit organization to benefit local Foster Youth who are aging out and facing homelessness. I am very busy and absolutely exhausted due to chronic pain and tons of responsibility. Though I love what I am doing, it is a lot! My son is often late to school due to my disability. I wake up multiple times a night and the pain is the worst in the mornings and night. So getting up in the morning is quite a process that is never the same. Every day is a different kind of nightmare. Today I brought my son to school late again. =( He is also sick, and school policy decides when my sick son is too sick to attend so I bundled him up and was ready to send him to school. We pulled up to the school gate and I had him get out. Mind you, it is pouring rain, and he's standing by the gate buzzing the office to let him in and they will not. They want me to come in and sign him in. It takes all my energy and pain tolerance just to get up and to my vehicle so I asked kindly if they could bring the form to me. The office staff's answer? A solid NO because they are "short staffed". (Which is BS and I'll explain below.) The vice principal's response? He has his staff's side and spoke to me like I was one of his child students. Their website shows 15 faces of people who are not teachers who could have helped me out, and only 215 students in the entire school (kindergarten all the way through high school!) Even if some staff were absent, there are plenty of people who could have taken the 60 seconds it would've taken to walk a disabled single mother a form. They simply did not want to. And I think that's pretty heartless. http://yubacitycharter.org/yccs-staff/ The average # of students in a regular public school in California is 386 for primary school, 524 for middle school, 629 for high school and 264 for "other". https://nces.ed.gov/pubs2001/overview/table05.asp They were not in a meeting, a staff conference or anything else of that nature. The staff told the vice principal that I wanted a pregnant woman to bring me the form, and the vice principal (Mr. Cooley) said to me, "You wanted my pregnant staff to bring you the sign-in!" I never asked for specifically someone who is pregnant to bring me the form. I just needed one of the 15+/- available humans on campus to take 60 seconds out of their day to help me. I will not be killing myself to get my son to that school any more. This is not the first time this has happened either, and an email to the vice principal the first time it happened was met with crickets. (He did not reply at all, yet told me today that he did receive the email though.) I'll take my son somewhere that cares for kids and their support system; i.e. the "whole child," as the state requires education professionals to do via common core standards. (I'm a teacher too, pausing work to recover from my spine.) The whole child includes the family, and the fact that their student (my son) has a disabled mom makes his life more challenging which is something that schools are supposed to support and help with. Not only have they refused to help me with something so simple, the VP there is failing to lead as well. Who wins here? Nobody. And who loses? My son. In short, they are failing the best practices of the whole child/common core ideology and thus, are failing their job. http://www.ascd.org/ASCD/pdf/siteASCD/policy/CCSS-and-Whole-Child-one-pager.pdf The images shown are screen shots of a video I took of my son trying to get into his school (yuba city charter school), and the staff refusing to unlock the gate. I am pointing with my S Pen to my son standing at the gate, waiting, to no avail. The other picture shows him running back through the rain to my truck, to tell me that they said they won't let him in unless I come in and sign. This is when I called to ask if they can bring it out.

Then I find myself in a situation where I have to address a random kid with other kids around laughing to give my kid his bike because he's asked for it three times already. The kid proceeds to give him his bike and takes another kids bike that is parked on what we believe to be secured property because we trust to take and leave are kids there with staff. Unreal!!

I am extremely disappointed with this school and the way it has been run in recent years. The staff…read morehas gone downhill, the front office does nothing to address bullying or serious issues, and instead seems to spend more time gossiping or sitting on their phones than helping students and families. Bullying is ignored, and even when parents go to the school to try to resolve problems, nothing is done. In fact, situations often get turned around unfairly, with the wrong kids punished while others are protected. It feels like the administration shows favoritism, doesn't listen to all sides, and allows certain students (and their parents) to manipulate situations. The vice principal and office staff have been especially unprofessional and dismissive. Concerns about harassment, threats, and even parents from other families causing problems outside of school grounds were brushed off with "we can't do anything about it." That is unacceptable for a school that is supposed to be protecting and supporting kids. Teachers aren't much better, they rarely seem to keep watch in the classrooms, and they don't communicate with parents about issues students are facing. I was told after the fact that there were ongoing problems, but not once did I receive a phone call during the entire school year. This school does not create a safe, supportive, or fair environment. Instead of building up the community and helping kids grow, they dismiss problems, play favorites, and make situations worse. Families deserve a school that truly cares about all students and sadly, this is not one of them.
