This school is a nightmare for children who have disabilities. Not only does the staff neglect the…read moredisabled students, they harass and falsify information to their own benefits. Just so they don't have to help those students who are in need. All the while they put on the front of being caring staff. They fail time and time again to provide the 504 plans for students in a timely manner even with a doctors note stating the student needs to be on the plan. They violate HIPAA laws and the privacy of these students. Don't even get me started on the Joke they call a principal. They lie and discriminate against those students protected by the ADA act. They're quick to call CPS on parents of the disabled because they aren't equipped with the right training to teach behavioral skills to those who need it. Non Verbal children cannot communicate their needs through oral communication. Negligence runs high in their walls. they've even "misplaced" and lost children who are elopers. When they should have had a one on one AID with them the whole time! DO NOT send your children to Ysabel Barnet if they are disabled. Your children will suffer for it! The district is of zero help too!

Mrs. Rabe, thank you so much for helping Kiko grow into the fine young lady she is today. You have been an integral part of her growth. It does not go unnoticed. You believed in her when she didn't believe in herself. Educators have a special place in the hearts of children. The three educators that were part of my children's lives will be remembered for a life time. The promotion ceromonies were amazing and fitting for the accomplishments. I was able to watch my TK daughter recite the alphabet backwards. That is truely amazing Mrs. Gutierrez. Thank you for being part of Athenas life. Dr. Manami, Thank you for your proactiveness to the issues that came up this school year. You're a great example of the leader you are and the institution should feel lucky to have you. The Think Together Staff and Miss Ashley You all care so deeply about our children and their growth. Thank you for all the great memories our children will share for a lifetime.

Our experience at Warm Springs Middle School has been deeply concerning, especially when it comes…read moreto student safety. Bullying is a serious issue here and doesn't seem to be taken as seriously as it should be. My child has witnessed--and unfortunately been affected by--multiple incidents of physical fights on campus, some of which were barely addressed by staff. It's alarming how common these altercations are, and how little follow-up there seems to be. We expected a safe and supportive environment for learning, but instead found ourselves constantly worried about our child's well-being. When we brought up concerns to administration, the response felt dismissive and reactive rather than proactive. This school desperately needs stronger leadership when it comes to campus safety, clear policies around bullying, and more supervision during breaks and passing periods. Students should feel protected and valued, not scared to go to school. If I could give 0 stars I absolutely would.

I am writing this review on behalf of my Grandsons and my family…read more My daughter attended this school back in 1996- 1999. She is now raising her own kids, and I have the pleasure in assisting her. From the day my first Grandson, was in Transitional Kindergarten, to present, has been a positive experience. He is now 3rd grade. He has had the fortune to have had Mrs. Faye, Mrs. Hansen, Mrs. Rain, (sp) Mrs Esquival, and now Mrs. Skeens. I have only positive things to say about this Murrieta school. My second Grandson, has Mrs. Airebear. Every body loves Mrs. Airebear!!! Especially my Grandson! I would especially like to Thank Leslie and Jaqui in the office for every single time we walk through their doors. They are helpful and very professional in all they do for our kids. Whether I call them on the phone, or present myself in person, great staff in the office holding this school together! Last but not least, I haven't met him in person, but, I have watched this man from the drive up lanes, from the parking lot, walking through the halls, at award ceremonies, flag days, jogathons, picking up and dropping off day to day, and he just stuns the life out of me. He is genuine and sincere about keeping our kids safe. He is Alta's Principal. Mr. Cooley, I hope I spelled your name correctly. You rock! My Grandsons and my family, say Thank You, for keeping them safe. Greatest school in Murrieta! You will not be disappointed. I am shocked that more parents have not reviewed this school. After all, our children spend over half their lives here. 20 million stars for ALTA Murrieta Elementary!

This school is safe, fun, and staffed with amazing teachers. We are so grateful for all the staff here who make this school the great place that it is.

My son had an issue with repeating himself at times (ADHD and being currently evaluated to see if he is on the spectrum) and instead of engaging with him in a different way " you've already said that so is there any new information you would like to add?" He was cut off mid sentence more than once and chastised that he's already said that and to stop repeating himself. I was in person and saw this happen in front of me. I have been giving this school chance after chance, from kindergarten to 3rd grade we have been here and I feel I've wasted so much time and energy for myself and my son. Some of the staff are great and loving, but unfortunately the bad outweighs the good here.

This is for Pine Hills Academy. The teacher for the 5th…read moregrade math teacher is not very experienced. She is new to the field and it shows. She was not professional and the kids had a very difficult time learning in her classroom. She mainly put the children on computer programs and I know there were complaints so towards the end she did some teaching time in her classroom. The teacher would play favorites, telling the children "just because these kids are smarter than you, it doesn't make them better than you". This teacher would give her favorite student authority to choose who they thought was being "bad" or "good" and place them in categories to either receive a treat or if deemed "bad" by this student placed on the list to be reprimanded and have to do push ups in front of the class. The students who were chosen as "bad" were actually some of the nicer and well behaved students. The teacher repeated many times in front of the class that the chosen student had the power to make these decisions about the others. There was a game another teacher lead at recess for PE where the students all stood in a circle and were instructed to say if they liked the students next to them or not. If they didn't those students had to move. It got pretty detailed and started focusing on clothing and facial features such as "I do not like anyone with blue eyes". All of this was shocking to me and in retrospect I can now see why my child was so uncomfortable last year. In 2018 there was a turn over in principals. The new principal isn't experienced in dealing with difficult matters. I did go to the head of the school and had communicated what I thought wasn't working and she was very helpful. I was able to give it at least 2 stars are for the quality of children/families in this school. If it weren't for the great kids the rating would have been lower.
