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!

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

Wanted to share part of an email that was never fully addressed by the staff at Eastlake or when I…read morewent to the superintendent. The superintendent referred me back to the school staff which made no sense. I obviously reached out to the superintendent because I needed more assistance the staff was not able to provide. Here's a piece of my email. At this point we do not feel supported by the staff at Eastlake Middle School and want this recorded as a written complaint. I am concerned and upset that no one cares that Mr. Spates is creating inappropriate relationships with children. I was on the phone listening to a conversation between Mr. Spates and my and my daughter and i did not feel comfortable with the way he was speaking to my daughter. He was too friendly. Got mad at her for not giving him her chips to eat then kicked her out over her chips. I can go further in detail in person but it was too playful for me and unacceptable. He gives creep vibes. The man was super playful with my baby girl, it made me uncomfortable.

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!

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.

Some teachers were good, then you have horrible ones like stephanie armendariz, who are more interested in acting like your child's friend then be a teacher, rarely responded to messages that were sent, disregarded my child after they recieved the IEP and would refuse requests they had in line with it. The school is over populated, fights occur on a daily/weekly basis, my child's 8th grade counselor was inept, I was not given the copy of the IEP contract until reaching out numerous times over multiple weeks, the document should have been made available the same day. Unprofessional, lack of judgement, this is for the administrators. Schools in West chula vista are better

The bathrooms are well maintained and I do appreciate that the floor is perfect for Basketball. there are a lot of bleachers here.
