I am a mother of 4, so I have years of working WITH the schools to help my kids…read more My last child is now in this school. I have never felt so locked out about my child. The campus is closed. Parents are not allowed on campus even with verified legal documents. They want parent involvement, but how. We can't walk our kids to class, we can't visit the classes. We can't even reach the principal or vice principal via email. Only have access to the teacher and a front office person via an App. I have provided documents about my childs ongoing sessions, and I'm getting annoying threatening notifications of unexcused absences. Then there is the nurse, smh my first year at this school, and I want her gone. She has an underlined problem that is obvious but ignored. When I can find another school that's fitting, I'm pulling my child from here. There are some nice staff, but overall, this school is not mentally, emotionally, or academically healthy for my child.

My wife and I absolutely recommend this Elementary School. We love Mrs. Farrow and Mrs. Butler! We…read morelove all the teachers our kids have had over the years. These negative posts about Mesquite couldn't be further from the truth. My kids have never had any problems with teachers or staff members. But my kids also get straight A's and pay attention in class. I would argue that kids are getting worse and do not care to learn anymore, which is very sad. The TK bathrooms are literally in the classroom so no one is taking kids to some private bathroom away from Mrs. Farrow! And Mrs. Butler deals with mostly bad kids that don't pay attention so I appreciated her being stern and hard on my kid to make her learn as much as possible! We are sad that Mr. Young has moved schools this year but we look forward to meeting the new Principal. Mesquite is a great school if you are a hands on parent that makes your kids do their homework every day, listen in class, and are eager to learn! Let's Go Mountain Lions!!!!

Do NOT place your little ones with Ms.Farrow in TK! My little ones first 3 hours on the first day…read moreof school and the next day with me present in class were not the best at all. Her and the TA left my daughter in her own urine and all I got was ‍ literally got that from Ms.Farrow and the principle was helpful. but then I had to take my daughter in for a knee injury and the first thing the doctor said was take her out that school. So to show I was serious of what my daughter experienced with and without me there I called the sheriffs and I'm guessing the principal didn't like it much. And there's more. At the end of the day don't take your little ones there also the TA is male and she allows him to take the little girls to the restroom which I let them know I was not comfortable with that.

Mr Hawk yells at students for "behavior", and says the same things every single day and says students will be a failure in life if they aren't perfect, as my daughter tells me.

Everyone sitting behind a desk seems to have a stick up their butt. Literally went in there to ask a question that should had already been answered but no, I had to go inside and physically ask. Such a simple answer too. Could have just made the quick phone call to me but they didn't. Asked to talk to the principal one day about my daughter being BULLIED but, the receptionist just took my number down with my name and probably tossed it in the trash because I never heard from him. The office staff have flaws fersure. Sadly. Doesn't reflect too well on the school. If your child goes here, make sure you don't need to go into the office much.

I am writing to formally express my serious concern regarding a disturbing incident in which a…read morestudent was physically attacked on school grounds while a teacher allegedly witnessed the event and failed to intervene, de-escalate the situation, summon immediate assistance, or render aid afterward. If these reports are accurate, this conduct represents a significant failure to uphold the district's duty of care and its legal and ethical obligation to maintain a safe educational environment for all students. School employees are entrusted with the responsibility to take reasonable and appropriate action when a student's safety is threatened. A failure to act during a violent incident may constitute negligence and raises serious concerns regarding staff training, supervision, compliance with district policy, and adherence to mandated student safety protocols. Equally troubling is the reported failure to provide assistance or support to the student following the attack. The apparent lack of intervention and post-incident response demonstrates a disregard for student welfare that cannot be overlooked. Given the seriousness of this matter, I respectfully request that the district conduct an immediate and thorough investigation into the incident, including a review of any surveillance footage, witness statements, staff conduct, and compliance with district safety procedures. I also request clarification regarding what corrective actions, disciplinary measures, and policy reviews will be implemented to ensure that students are properly protected moving forward. Parents and students must be able to trust that school personnel will act swiftly and responsibly when a child is in danger. Any failure to do so undermines confidence in the district's commitment to student safety and exposes the district to potential legal liability. I expect this matter to be treated with the urgency and seriousness it warrants, and I request a written response outlining the findings of the investigation and the steps being taken to address this issue.
