Every morning, they race down my block with reckless disregard for the safety of this community. Despite our efforts to protect our neighborhood--fighting to install stop signs, speed humps, and lowering the speed limit to 15 mph--they still drive through our narrow street as if it were the 805 during a car chase. I know the principal works hard to remind families to slow down and respect the community in which this school resides. Unfortunately, too many ignore those reminders. Their disregard makes it clear they simply do not care about the safety of the residents who live here.

The head of the administration is a political figure. If you're Jewish, the school does not care about you. They don't care whether you stay or you go. They don't care about anti-Semitic incidents on campus. Anti-Israel is not anti-Jewish for them. You will just yell into the void when bad things happen. There is zero accountability. I'm feeling very poorly about a school I was very excited to have my child join. If you're left leaning and hate Jews, this is the right place for you.

There are far better schools out there that cost less and care more. Most of the glowing reviews you'll see are from people who knew this school back when it deserved its reputation.

There have been incidents…read morewhere children were physically harmed, yet the administration -- especially the dean and his group -- do everything they can to cover it up. They deny the facts and make it seem like nothing ever happened. Their high ratings are completely misleading. When it comes down to real issues, they suddenly claim that the security cameras weren't working, and that they "can't do anything." I strongly advise every parent: do not send your child here. Your child's safety and well-being will not be protected at this school.

Which includes two school fights I remembered that happened rarely on occasion, and VP trying to stop one fight during lunch between a two students around the cafeteria making it absolutely horrific for SRHS to say there school is a good school in a way where the kids are just troubling sometimes as like if there students that completely don't understand what's morally correct psychologically. they say it's a good school but to those who will be freshman should know these problems because I remember these problems ever since I was a junior in high school. There needs to be more protocols, especially since I remember there would be dudes in the boys bathrooms since 2022 vaping and messing around in the bathrooms. Sometimes they would have to close down due to this behavior, and I remember there was a day most of the boys bathrooms were shut down because of this issue. After I graduated class of 2024, those memories still remain an interesting experience in high school because they reflect the issues that happened. But, also what could improve for new people coming here to have a better high school experience.

I have 3 special-needs children and 2 graduated from from a prestigious division 1 high school…read more I have had horrible experiences with many schools and had to move to different schools through the years for my kids to get the education thy needed. Many teachers were insensitive, aloof, ignorant about trauma informed teaching and would not implement support needed to succeed in school, despot the IEPs. Was a single mom and was not rich, so couldn't fight the system, nor did I have time, while I was working and putting self through nursing school and managing a physically I'll child and a mentally ill child. I Moved to SD for work- and researched schools so my youngest child could succeed in high school. I study trauma and how it prevents learning. So I wanted a school that was culturally sensitive and the teaches are mindful of the various background and situations the children came from. What a blessing E3 is. My youngest child of my 3 kids LOVES ALL the teachers and looks forward to going to school for once. I observed student:-teacher interactions at the back to school night and noticed that all teacher we met have an element of care, compassion, and are vested in student success. They treat students with respect and they were genuinely friendly with the students. Throughout the years there was one great teacher here and there that my kids would get. But it was a gamble and some school years were horrible, some years were full of learning. However, at E3 - ALL of my child's teachers are amazing, knowledgeable, and foster a relationships with him. It was endearing to watch the teacher-student interaction with other students as well- these students trusted and actually enjoyed the teachers. E3 has free tutoring included with school if your child needs it. I did not have the finances to pay for tutoring when my older children were in high school. So, one of my children barely graduated. They experienced traumatic experiences from teachers, teacher assistants giving answers when "helping" a child with tests (found out after a course of years). It was horrible. - E3 is a newer school that has the frame work to educate students and model emotionally healthy interactions so they are successful in life. Highly recommended. Put your child on the list.

When viewing the campus map online it appeared much larger and much more confusing than it actually was. The PA Center was immediately to my left as I pulled onto campus, very easy to find and parking was extremely close too! I also viewed the theater seating chart online to pick my seat. I really loved that it showed me which seats would have a blocked view, encouraging me to pick another one. The theater seemed much larger online than it actually was. So when I chose a front row seat, I had no idea I would be "kick up my feet onto the stage" close. It was still a great seat and I could see the entire performance. The acoustics were good as was the lighting. They could definitely use another bathroom, one is not enough!

Even when you request a meeting with the other party's parents and the school, the school declines and allows the behavior. Not a very welcoming learning environment. If other students call your child a racial slur nothing is done. This is ONE OF the earliest environments these children should learn what is socially, ethically, and morally acceptable because obviously they are not learning this at home. To not hold children accountable for their actions is enabling them to continue the deplorable behavior. In addition the school is saying they agree and encourage the behavior by doing nothing to punish or prevent this behavior.

Beside one or two teachers I was very disappointed in how some of them handled situations. I hardly had any communication with any of his teachers regardless how many times I reached out to find out assignments or any thing regarding my child's education! Also your child will not be able to attend any dances or have a chance at extra "special events" if they have an I in any class. I think it's absolutely ridiculous and separates the "good kids from the bad kids!" This is how my child felt! You do not treat children this way and exclude them from events with their friends. Middle school is hard enough. I will not name the teachers names but I've had to help my child with certain classes because the teacher refused to help let alone teach them! Some homework that was brought home was not discussed in class, and lots of assignments making my child feel overwhelmed. It was a constant fight every night because my child was mentally drained! I have read reviews about Dana and heard by a number of people who have attended there or had their child go there that this place is a mess! I also agree! I'm so glad to be almost done with this school! I can't count how many times my child came home upset from that school and because of its TEACHERS! Good luck if your child has to go here. I would really recommend going somewhere else if you have the means!
