    I contacted the Principal, Carrie Vincent, to inquire about my daughter coming in for a visit day…read more She will be going to Junction in about a year and she always talks about going to school. So, I thought, what better way then to have her go in and get a taste of it. I e-mailed the principal and was told that we could not come in for a visit for even an hour because we would distract the kinder's from doing their work and they are working very hard this year. Really? And kinders perform brain surgery? I was shocked and appalled that a Principal would not let a local future student come into a class for a moment. My views of this school are really low and my child will not be attending there. Shame on you Ms. Vincent.

    I started sending my son's to Junction back when it first opened and have been amazed with how well…read morethey have done here. At the time, we lived in Rocklin School District, which I am not a fan of, and had them transferred over. We currently live in the district now, but not in the neighborhood for this school and I continue to have them transferred over. The staff at Junction has always been friendly and supportive to me and my kids. My son's teacher's have worked hard with them teaching them how to read and succeed at school. Because of their hard work, my 2nd grade son is reading at an upper 4th grade level. The school is well maintained and always has our kids safety at hand. As for Ruth's review, she must have a warped since of what elementary schools are built for. They are not daycare centers or playgroups. Our teachers must be focused on teaching their students, not babysitting a preschooler for a day.

    No school is perfect neither is this one. There are a lot of good things but there also somethings…read morethat i do not like. I will base my score based on my daughter's experience in Kindergarten. Pro: Strong Academics Field trips Caring classroom aids Clean classrooms Great lunch program with a french chef serving salmon..etc gourmet food!!!! Con: Not enough play time within classroom. Her teacher-Mrs Boyle was an extremely strict. She did not give kids any chance to make a mistake. I witnessed on several occasions she was calling out the kids, borderline yelling across the classroom..found this very intimidating. Later on, I heard from other student's parents that she was constantly complaining about boys in the classroom. Recommended K teachers are Chavez and Medd School has no fields Not enought shade for students. They are adding 1 classroom to each grade level in 2017 K-3 grade making each grade level 6 classes. The school is becoming sooo big. I hope increased quantity will not mean lowered quality.

    I was extremely hesitant to leave a review because I was honestly close to filing a claim against…read morethis school over how my son was treated. After six months, I ultimately had to pull my four-year-old out because the situation was severely affecting his confidence and well-being. My son had been home with me his entire life. He had structure and routine at home, but starting TK was a completely new environment: 20+ children, two teachers, new rules, constant transitions, and expectations he had never experienced. He is a genuinely good, loving child who was struggling to adjust--not a child who deserved to be treated as though he was a problem. Unfortunately, his TK teacher, Mrs. Schreier, seemed to give up on him almost immediately. Instead of helping him gradually become comfortable in the classroom, he was pushed toward an IEP and eventually spent much of his time isolated in the learning center with a rotation of teachers. His "body breaks" could consist of simply moving from one chair to another. Recess was repeatedly restricted or taken away. When he was rarely given recess, he was closely shadowed despite never having aggressive or physical behavior toward another child. At times, even lunch and restroom access became issues, and he came home with two accidents after being unable to use the restroom. He desperately wanted to be with his classmates. The constant restrictions and isolation understandably led to more acting out. In my opinion, his behavior was a reaction to an environment where he felt controlled, excluded, and desperate to return to his peers. I worked extensively with the school and repeatedly told them I was willing to reinforce anything at home that would help him succeed. I tried to build relationships with every teacher involved in his care, including the behavior teacher, Miss Reily, the principal, Mrs. Lane, seven resource teachers, and the vice principal. Unfortunately, I often felt dismissed, and the lack of empathy and communication was extremely frustrating. There were also repeated concerns about autism that I felt were being pushed too quickly, despite not seeing the same behaviors anywhere else. Months later, teachers themselves acknowledged they were no longer seeing the signs they had previously been concerned about. That was extremely concerning to me. The experience became so stressful that I was physically and mentally overwhelmed. My son experienced two anxiety attacks when I picked him up early, including difficulty breathing, because he desperately wanted to be around his peers and teacher. I communicated this to the school, yet I did not feel his emotional or physical well-being was treated with the urgency it deserved. During this same period, my son underwent tonsil surgery to address severe sleep apnea because I wanted to eliminate anything that could be contributing to his difficulties at school. Even after surgery, I was disappointed by how little effort seemed to be made to help him feel included. When I asked whether his classmates could make him a simple get-well card, his teacher said she was not going to ask them to do so, but there was a craft table if they chose to make one. How would his classmates know he had surgery if no one told them? It was another moment where I felt my son was being treated as though he didn't belong. What has been most eye-opening is what happened after leaving. My son now attends John Adams Academy, and within TWO WEEKS I have seen an entirely different child. He is listening, comfortable, participating, enjoying school, and making tremendous progress. I was honest with his new teacher about everything we experienced. Her response was, "He may have his bad days, but I'm not giving up on him, nor am I going to leave him." That sentence alone says everything. A four-year-old entering school for the first time needs patience, encouragement, consistency, and someone willing to help him learn how to succeed in a completely new environment. Instead, I felt my son was labeled, isolated, and treated as though his struggles were simply his fault. I gave this school six months, countless conversations, cooperation at home, and every opportunity to work with us. I even spent hours sitting in my car outside the school trying everything I could to support my son and understand what was happening. I tried to be patient and understanding, but eventually I had to put my child's well-being first. I am grateful we made the decision to leave. Watching my son thrive in a new classroom has shown me that there was never something inherently wrong with my child. He needed adults who were willing to understand him, teach him, and not give up on him. I sincerely hope this school takes a hard look at how it handles children who struggle during their transition into school. They are four years old. They are still learning. They need guidance--not to feel like they are a problem that needs to be removed.
