I really wanted to give this place 5 stars I really did, But I'm going to give it one star due to…read morethe service, decor and food itself. Let me start with the service I once asked a teacher if I could get a drink of water and was refused what kind of service is this ? Nobody ever has a smile on their face in the cafeteria I was never asked in the 4 years I ate here how the food was and was never once ever offered a refill. Recently they have gotten rid of the soda machine that never has soda in it, just mostly juices but that was one of the main features I looked forward to every day. I will move forward to the decor this place looks like it was made in the 70's obviously no renovation. Don't even get me started on the bathrooms there are no mirrors in the men's bathroom and most kids transferring from first hour to second are Julling in there so it's hard to get to actually use the facilities. Next is food, the picture shows what I had for lunch today as soon as I grabbed my food I could tell that the tots were in the temperature danger zone cause they were cold and soggy the PB&j was okay and the strawberry milk was pretty good. I hope next time there will be more effort put into our meals. That is all .

devoted 11 years of my life to this school--more than a decade building relationships, creating a…read morethriving drama program from the ground up, and believing deeply in the mission of education. All four of my children attended this school. I loved it. I gave it my all. That's why what I'm about to say is not easy, but it is necessary: DO NOT.... DO NOT WORK HERE. DO NOT send your children here. The school I once believed in is no longer a place I can stand behind. The leadership, particularly under Dr. Musser, and the ongoing revolving door of "Heads of School"--many of whom act more like puppets than leaders--have created an increasingly toxic and unstable environment. I honestly wish there was someway to hold them accountable for the many many good teachers, they have hurt. In just the past two months, there have already been two turnovers for the upcoming "Head of school". That level of inconsistency trickles down and deeply affects staff morale, student experience, and the integrity of the institution. Despite the red flags, I stayed for far longer than I should have because of the incredible students. But dedication to the kids can only carry you so far when leadership continuously undermines the core values of education. The teacher turnover rate speaks volumes. I urge anyone considering employment or enrollment here to do your homework: * Look into the school's compliance with charter school laws--especially regarding special education services. * Ask questions about teacher retention and leadership turnover. * Speak to former staff if possible. The stories are there, if you're willing to listen. I used to defend the school because of the hard-working teachers and my own emotional investment. But I can no longer look the other way. When bad things happen and no one is held accountable, silence becomes complicity. The environment has become not just dysfunctional--but harmful. Please look deeper. Don't be fooled by appearances... let me be clear. This is a wolf in sheep's clothing. This is not a healthy place for students or staff. The leadership is not just ineffective--it's dangerous.

Our time at Candeo Peoria was brief, and I cannot recommend this school based on our experience. At…read morefirst, everything seemed positive--the school environment felt safe, the uniform policy was well-implemented, and the principal, Mr. Davenport, was welcoming. However, things quickly went downhill. My daughter, a seventh grader, had a distressing experience with her Latin teacher, Ms. Moline, on just the second day of school. She was publicly criticized for not completing her homework and was reprimanded for her lack of organization. This was particularly upsetting because it was only her second day, and she had started several weeks late due to her acceptance date. Furthermore, she had no prior experience in sixth-grade Latin, which is a prerequisite for the class. There was no clear communication from the school or the teacher about how new students were expected to handle these assignments, and the instructions given were vague. When I met with Ms. Moline and Mr. Davenport to discuss these concerns, I was disappointed by the lack of resolution. Mr. Davenport seemed to excuse Ms. Moline's behavior rather than address it directly, and Ms. Moline herself was unsympathetic and unapologetic. Her demeanor was stern and unfriendly, which added to our discomfort, and it became apparent that many students share a similar view of her. I believe kindness and compassion are essential qualities for any educator. Additionally, my children were burdened with over three hours of homework each night, which disrupted a healthy school-life balance, especially given their extracurricular activities. I also noticed that the school's approach felt outdated; there was minimal use of technology, and their classical education model prioritized Latin--a language that is not widely used in the U.S. I would prefer my children learn Spanish, which is more practical and can fulfill high school or college language requirements. Ultimately, the lack of care and understanding of our concerns led us to conclude that Candeo Peoria was not the right fit for our family. We have returned to homeschooling through ASU Prep, which offers a rigorous curriculum that prepares students for college while also maintaining a healthy school-life balance. In conclusion, while Candeo Peoria has some positives, our experience did not meet our expectations, and we have found a better fit elsewhere.

If you have a job and you have a child that possibly suffers behavioral issues and they might need extra care and help sunburst is not the school for your child! This is his first year of school and he's an only child so im learning my child too but the fact they were so quick to suspend him and give up because they can't "control him" enraged me. He is 5 and adjusting to all these new things in the world and school life just like the staff. I'm a disappointed parent to say the least and don't recommend this school again if your child has any behavioral needs or ADHD and such..

The only thing they would crack down on was kids selling drugs, that's it. This school has made me have so much low self esteem, The only good thing about this school is the extra curriculums.

Good school, nice teachers, but the office treats you like a criminal for the smallest thing…read more Apparently, my kid's friend is in a friend group and he's kind of an executive there or whatever their hierarchy system is. And apparently one of the kids in said group was kicked out of it in fifth and sixth grade for doing inexplicable things in the middle of class, but it was misworded to the teacher what he did and he faced little punishment. He tried to rejoin in sixth grade but was kicked out. Now this year he tried AGAIN and succeeded. Now this group was kind of like a Democracy, so they held a vote to kick him out, and a majority voted in favor, to which he brought it up to the principal and my kid's friend was called up to the office. He explained why they had kicked him out due to the "things" he did in fifth grade, but the vice principal pushed that all aside and claimed it was harassment to kick him out of the group, and even if they did, the kid who was voted out would still be allowed to sit anywhere anyway. To which the kid brought up a good point, if they voted him out, he wouldn't have to move, could still sit with them, yadda yadda, so therefore kicking him out would do nothing except tell him they do not want to be involved with him anymore. To which the VP switched the topic talking about how he was putting peer pressure onto the other kids, and how he talked to them about the whole thing, and they said they wanted him to stay in. I'm sorry??? Pretty sure YOU put them under peer pressure because NOBODY wants to look like a bad guy in front of the VP, so how is holding a vote peer pressure but straightforward pressuring kids in your office ISN'T?!?!?
