My experience at this school was close to terrible. The administration/ office people are super…read moreunsupportive. I remember telling the school COUNSELOR that I was getting bullied. Her response is forever imprinted in my memory. She told me I was overreacting. What kind of adult has that type of reaction to a CHILD telling them that they were getting mistreated. On top of that, they are quick to point fingers, accuse students for being "bad", and not look into the students' situation at home. I was going through the roughest period of my life and they made it a thousand times worse. I hope no child has to go through that. Miramontes, Villa, Canales, and Schreiber. I hope you guys do the world a favor and retire.

Be prepared if you send your child to Alvarado. It's not all bad. The administration tries, but…read morethere's just too many students and not enough support. This school can get pretty scary and unsafe. Dropping off in the morning is a nightmare. Leave early and be prepared to wait. Major traffic and unsafe driving. Daily fights occur between both boys and girls. Smoking, vaping, alcohol and drugs are a common place at Alvarado Intermediate School. Not much justice for the victims. No substantial consequences for the criminals. Bullying is a part of the culture. Rarely do the offenders receive more than a, "talking to" for their offences. Pay the money and go to a private school or opt to Ybarra or Oswalt. You won't regret it.

Students will be treated and graded differently based on parents' donations and involvement with the school or church. Teachers in this school do not hold any credentials or credentialed teaching permits in K12 that public school districts require. This is shocking because parents pay tons of $ for "private school," but someone without credentials teaches them. They hire some parents as teachers. The facility is so small that kids need to go to another school's gym or tracks. There are no arts or sport extra curriculums.

We came to this district right when the 2018/19 year started. My daughter enrolled into 5th grade…read moreand got Mrs. Kim as her teacher. First of all, we adore this teacher. She has been wonderful and she sees the talent and shortcomings of each individual student and works accordingly with them as far as I have experienced. We were brand new to Rowland Heights and didn't know our way around but we live VERY close to the school, so I had my daughter walk home on her first day because of my work schedule. Well, she got lost. The school responded immediately when I showed up at their office. Mrs. Kim, and a P.E. teacher who remembered my daughter (because she looks different than every other student) got in a car to search and the assistant principal called the district safety officer, who drove around in search. Everyone in the office was concerned and involved. Mrs. Kim was the one who found her because she noticed her curly hair. She called me right away. It was a very happy ending and I felt like the school really went above and beyond to help me find my kid. Other than that, we have had a great school year here. I like the informational calls from the principal and other faculty. They really care and it shows.

Although we raised our son in an asian culture, we do not speak enough mandarin at home. We are amazed on how much mandarin my son understands via speaking, writing, and reading. I didn't think he will pick up much mandarin since we do not speak mandarin at home but we are so amazed on how much he knows. The faculty at Tzu Chi are very nurturing and caring. It's great the class is small so the kids get more attention and care. The school is very safe and they also organized a lot of school activities so we are well connected. My son looks forward in going to school everyday. He goes to the school with smiles and he comes back home with a even bigger smiles. This school has an enriched curriculum and I feel my son learns a lot from this school.
