Compared to what it use to be...it has improved. Unfortunately, that is not saying much. The…read moreeducation is still lacking in quality and since it is a LAUSD school do not hold your breath for any improvement. The school appears more like a mini prison. Gated fences surrounds the school..but that doesn't stop the kids from hopping the fence to skip class.

I live across the street from this school. Let me tell you how much of a nightmare it is to live by…read morethis school. 5 days out of the week from 7:30am til around 5:30 to 6 pm (after school time), the students just scream. All they do is scream throughout the day. Sometimes the screaming is blood-curdling. I once had a visiting relative comment on this and they thought that the students were being attacked in some way. They weren't joking and were genuinely concerned to the point they thought we should contact law enforcement. I had to remind them that they do this every day, it continues after school in the after-school programs. Once, as I was going for a walk by the school, a student, possibly separated from his gym class made a very crude and offensive sexual remark at me (an adult) relating to oral. There were zero adults present and I had no idea how to report this as I was very far from the entrance of the school which is on Firestone. Not very long ago, about 2-3 months ago, a lone student behind the fence was just yelling, "n-er, n-er!!!" repeatedly for close to two minutes straight. The parents are self-entitled. They will block your driveway when it's time to pick up a child. They have been in my own experience combative and aggressive. In the mornings, the parents will play their corridos and Banda music very loud in a residential area. There is a female teacher who uses her megaphone throughout the day to talk to her students during what sounds like gym period. She is the only teacher I hear! It becomes such a nuisance as I work from home. This school makes it very difficult to complain as there are no online forms to fill out, no way to submit any sort of documentation. If I call, they tell me I could only file a complaint in person during school hours and where's the time for that? In this day and age where it's easier to access things via the internet, you still have to go in person. I have lived by this school for decades. This is far from a decent school. It needs a lot of improvement and consideration for the residents that live around it. (For some reason this review shows I am located in San Francisco. I live and currently am located in South Gate.)

I'm unhappy with their lack of support for the kids my daughter was getting bullied by kids and the…read moreteachers or staffs didn't do anything I don't recommend. They didn't even let my daughter culminate that's how unfair they are.

I'm only giving this school 1 star because it doesn't allow 0... my child recently switched to SEMS…read morefrom another school in another district and there hasn't been a single day where I don't regret the decision. Not only are the children bullies but the staff also! I've had numerous issues come up and they're adamant on addressing them as a parent yet they NEVER answer their phones and they NEVER return phone calls!!!! The one time I was able to get a hold of someone, she spoke over me and REFUSED to help with something so simple as updating my child's emergency card information so they could get a hold of me directly. She was condescending and belittling to me AS A PARENT, I could only imagine how she treats the children! If any problems arise, they tell you through email rather than calling you directly which is asinine because not everyone operates by emails! This school is piss poor at best! UPDATE 6/8/22: Called and spoke to the school last week pertaining to culmination. The *genius* that answered told us tickets were not being issued and that they recommend 3 members of the family attend but they weren't capping off anyone. I had my mother drive a long distance to see her only grandson culminate only for my son to come home with 3 tickets today!!!!!!!!!!!!! So that means not only will his grandmother have to stay home but his other siblings will have to stay home too.. No one knows what they're talking about at this school!! They constantly give misleading information, the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing, it's the blind leading the blind. My brother is a dean at another school within LAUSD and even he can't believe the way this school handles itself. IF YOU HAVE THE OPTION, TAKE YOUR KID TO ANY OF THE SURROUNDING SCHOOLS!!!!!!!!!!! This one will only give you a headache and sit back while they watch your kid fail!!!

This is definitely not the middle school that I went to. Things have changed. Lots of new buildings…read more! A whole new school on this property. I don't recognize any of it. I'm grateful that my best friend has kids in the theater. I love that I get invited to come see these shows. What a production ! I don't even remember them having theater before. Now they have plays all year long. It's amazing. I love watching it thinking one day when they're famous they're gonna remember these days. It all started here Downey ! This rendition of Greece was amazing! I had so much fun. I can't wait to go to the next one.

Oh my god i was a student here and never seen so many fights, vapes, bullying, bad kids, and even…read moreso staff that are rude first a girl blew a firework in the girls locker room and hurt 2 girls also if student try to sell snacks they get them taken away another thing I saw a lot of were fights lots and brutal. Also some staff are rude and disrespectful towards students and not dropping names but they know who they are and staff don't pay attention to anything and are kinda understaffed to how big the campus is it's kinda embarrassing not going to lie. Also many kids vape in the bathrooms and a girl sold vapes in the restroom as well. another thing is people are super nasty and make out all over the place or grab each other inappropriately and staff don't even say or do anything which is unprofessional. The school also ignores bullying and it's so so sad to see also people record or take pictures of other people and post them online. one last thing is the defo program and its fun but some teachers like MS. HAILEY NEED TO GET FIRED because they are rude to some people and it's just awful and hopefully gets fired so just some defo staff are rude not all of them (mine was so kind and funny)
