First off, all the reviews insulting Ms. Connor are completely false and are clearly student…read morereviews from students who are mad at her for not getting a good grade, and that is their fault, not Ms. Connor's. She is truly an amazing teacher because she builds a friendship with her students that allows students to feel more connected in the classroom. She establishes a clear respect between her and her students while still being a great teacher. She balances English work and tests with fun projects, and always keeps her class engaging. She knows how to command a classroom while maintaining professionalism, but also maintains a great environment for learning for her students. She truly changes students' view of English, a class that can be boring, and gives her students the tools to be insightful and intentional in any writing and any other English activities they do.

They will not tell you what to make up when absent and I get that you can check google classroom and the agenda but some things we do in class aren't online so when your grade drops you have no idea what you need to make up and turn in. Teachers are nice don't get me wrong but some can be really frustrating. Kids are...kids nothing much I can say about that. They are immature as expected for middle school. I've never had any problems with administration as they have been really nice. The counselors are very nice as well I love Mrs. O'Connor and Mrs. Briening (I probably spelled it wrong) they always let me heat up my lunch and as for Mr.Vega I never really talked to him so idk but he seems like a nice guy. There have been 3 fights at the school from the years I have been there; 2023-2026 but one was at the town square near Albertsons so not many if you think about it. Overall good education and there has been some fun memories made from school trips and etc.

I have nothing but raving reviews and positive things to say about Pivot…read more My son was struggling in public schools (middle) for the past couple of years, he was overwhelmed by the large classes, noise environment and sometimes aids that weren't very patient with him. (He has dyslexia and autism) And rather than try out another medication to lessen his anxiety, I wanted to target the source of his symptoms. Which meant looking for an alternative school. I am soo incredibly grateful I found Pivot and was able to transfer him in the beginning of 2nd semester. It only took a few phone calls and emails and everything was transferred to Pivot and he was able to start the next week. He's now a much happier person, no longer struggling with anxiety and depression. The small quiet classes sizes and kind welcoming students have been fantastic! Along with supportive teachers & aids. It's a super welcoming place, the students are quiet and respectful to each other. Which is not what he experienced in public schools with bullying and harassment from other students, and then nothing was ever resolved by teachers or administrators. My son attends school on campus Monday to Thursday 9am-12pm and then Friday is an only check in at 10:30am and works online that day but the school is incredibly flexible if your student wants to do online only or mix some in person classes with online work. The campus is HUGE! Not only just North county but also Riverside and I'm sure more areas. His education coordinators Gus & Alex have been a godsend, they are so kind to him and know how to work with him at his pace. Gail & Adrian (admin team) are also super friendly and so helpful with anything we've needed. My son especially likes the walking journals, where the classroom goes out on nature walks by san Marcos lake and takes pictures of the scenery. As well as awesome field trips to cool places like the History of Music & History of Surf museum. He also loves when they play volleyball in the parking lot- it's very 80s nostalgia- kids playing in the open space and yelling car when they need to stop. If your child is struggling, with making friends, feeling out of place or overwhelmed by regular public schools. Try Pivot, it's a game changer and for my family a prayer answered! Also, if you have any questions please feel free to contact me and I'd be happy to share our experience.

If you're child is working, or does not have the typical lifestyle (my daughter is a dancer) then this is a great alternative to the regular public school system. This is public school also, so it IS paid for. I am happy to see my daughter actually get excited about attending and learning. No more stressing about fitting in enough hours for her to get her education and pursue her passion. Happy MOM. Disclaimer: This type of learning environment is for self motivated independent learners. It is not for everyone but, if you have been looking for alternative ways I highly recommend looking more into this charter school.

So I was an ex parent at the school, and they charge a lot of extra money that is not worth it…read more They charged me $200 on something I did not agree on, and we were going to use that money for my daughter's birthday, and now she can't have fun. Although they get a lot of money, they cannot afford school buses nor other things schools need. They give a lot of very unnecessary extra work that has been very hard on my child, physically and mentally. The staff are not the kindest, and there is very little people at the whole school, so my child will not get a proper experience to work with many other different people. If you are looking for a private school, I do not recommend.

She would talk with me, not some normal conversation she wanted to know how I was doing, and really cared about all her students well being both physically and emotionally. She ran the robotics program after school and it was a great place to stay when I didn't want to go home yet. She made learning science fun! And I really looked forward to attending her class every single day. I hope she's doing well, I hope she retired and is now living comfortably, I saw her car. It's a small car, but one of the most unique ones I've ever seen, it had one of those wind up attachments you'd see on toys to make them move. I don't miss everything but I made great experiences there.

Then, I read the BLOG and the first of the two blog entries, talks about being a strict vs "mean" teacher, then goes on to say, "Jesus wanted the disciples to know the truth well enough to express it with their own words and deeds. Imagine a million ways to say the same thing so that a million people could know one truth. 40 authors in 66 books of the Bible all pronouncing, 'Chose life.'" YIPES! At least I found out that it has a religious agenda before placing my child here. I sure wish they'd say, right on their front page, that they have a religious bias. I would rather my child receive a well-rounded education, not one based on a bible.

The school is lacking in current curriculum for some topics and fails at all to teach computer skills, something very important in this day and age. Taking the time for basic safety skills, like regular fire/earthquake drills, are not covered. Children are administered tylenol without parental permission (this was improved after I complained though). If you try to discuss any issues with the board you will get a notice to remove your children from the school immediately (Yep, I was given 1 week notice to pull my child even though she had zero issues). The school administrator lacks integrity and is sometimes rude to the kids. Be warned, there is more wrong than right with this school!

My son has vision challenges, and they adamantly refused to do anything, beyond pressure me to medicate him so he would "focus more." Great solution for blindness. ‍ After nearly 2 years of begging for help and watching my son fall further behind, his father and I decided to move to an area that's known for better schools. We would have been grateful for any school that would help even a little bit. But instead, imagine our surprise when we land at Carrillo Elementary, where they have done more for our son in the first week, than the previous school did in two years. The communication is absolutely outstanding. The teachers and staff catch the slightest details and take action to remedy issues. For example, my son started breaking up crayons at his desk. Which principle noticed and made a note to get a fidget sensory tool for him. Since he's very active, she also suggested an exercise band for his seat. What a difference from anything we have remotely experienced. The school honestly makes me so happy, I can tear up just thinking about it. Just knowing how eager they are to help, and how much they care about each and every student, it's a beautiful thing we will never take for granted.
