Stella hills is an average school. I unfortunately moved last minute and had to enroll my son here…read more Thank God it was for less than a month. This school sucks badly. Office staff is all over the place. No one knows anything and has to ask the other for the answer. Office is big though. A lot of the front desk staff are rude and cannot multitask. They ask you the same questions over and over again as if you are a parrot. Principal is phony as can be. Makes it seems like she's all about the kids but she's not. It's all about a paycheck to her. Plus her caked on Make up doesn't help her look. Not enough staff for all the students school is very overcrowded. You don't have to go through office to gain access to school grounds. That's scary to me. Any person can waltz through the gates acting as a parent and be a murderer or a pedophile. Son's teacher was the worst. Name was Mrs. Kostner and she's very mean spirited. Doesn't care about students only there for the paycheck also. Doesn't try to teach kids with patience but instead raises her voice and rolls eyes. Teaching isn't her God given talent. I volunteered at the school so I saw her in action. She's a very condescending snooty woman and I dislike her ways. Kids don't eat til 20 minutes before they go home so the whole day they have to wait. I would never in my life choose this school as a choice. Plus the parking is bad.
