Gave a 3 star because of the good things I've heard about this school before my first experience…read morewith them. I had an extremely annoying experience just trying to enroll my child. I arrived with ONE person waiting. After about 15 minutes of not being helped, that person left to the restroom so I obviously moved to the front of the line. Another woman got behind me after filling out a packet, then the first woman came back and got behind her. There was one receptionist and alot of phone calls and kiddos coming through so I understand she was super busy, but with my receptionist experience you help people who are in your face before you help a phone call. After about 45 minutes of standing there(ONLY needing an enrollment packet) she decides to help the lady behind me FIRST, and then the woman behind her FIRST. I find that extremely ridiculous. Waiting 45 minutes to an hour for a packet to be given to me, and 2 people who were behind me being helped first, as well as multiple phone calls? Horrible. I had high hopes after hearing such good things about this school. Hopefully my child's experience there will be better than mine.

This school is extremely overwhelming strict and sexist. As someone who has attended Actis Jr High,…read morei would NEVER allow my children to go to this school as this school is very mentally draining and unsafe. THE FRONT OFFICE, AND OFFICE STAFF DONT CARE ABOUT YOU. When I would go up to the office they would never help me at all, instead they made me feel very dumb and as if I didn't know what I was talking about they constantly gave me attitude and dirty looks while speaking to the office lady's. They continuously taken my own personal items like clothing, and my cell phone that was kept with them for a whole week, I informed them that parents were unable to get the phone in time while school was open and refused to give me my cell phone at the end of the day. In my opinion there was no need for them to keep MY stuff in their office for a WHOLE ENTIRE WEEK. Now I wanna talk about how sexist the dress code is. Girls aren't allowed to wear jeans that are tight or have rips above the knees, spaghetti straps, crop tops, and shoes that reveal the toes because it attracts male attention or is "unprofessional" and "inappropriate" now this is where things get serious and is out of hand, NO OVER AGE MEN/WOMEN SHOULD BE STARING AT A YOUNG GIRL. This is mainly towards Mr postif as he is the only person that points people out the most and dress codes almost everyday but mostly the girls now isn't that just strange?? THINK OF IT. The way we dress doesn't depend on our success and the way we pass in school, we can dress the way we want. As girls/women barely even have the rights now days this doesn't help and girls deserve more RESPECT and need to stop being treated as if they are some fragile toy by some stupid adult at a school where children are supposed to be comfortable. And if it's really that big of a deal men/boys in school should be taught to control themselves. PE TEACHERS/PE Don't even get me started with them as there are no good side to them. Let's begin with the locker rooms, when I would change into pe clothes I would be stared at my miss postif and miss karen. Locker rooms are extremely crammed, humid and have a bad stench to them. Mr jones has made many girls uncomfortable, and I've caught him staring at the girls many times during pe. I genuinely don't know where they get there teachers from and how they get hired but they should be fired. The comfort and safety of the students is most important that anything and this isn't being treated very well. I remember there was a time where I got judged by miss postif, she pointed out my biggest insecurity and I cried in the school bathrooms messaging my mom to pick me up because I couldn't take it anymore.

I am a current attending 8th grader, I will graduate in less than a week. I have had nothing but…read morestraight A's this year, and A's and B's last year, yet this school treats me worse than kids that tend to fight or get detention. This school REQUIRES you to buy either the P.E clothes or a gray shirt or blue shorts for 20$. If not, your grade drops or you get detention, in my opinion, this is dumb, dressing out does not determine you participation in sports or your efforts, this should not be such a problem to the school, if it isn't harmful, why do students get detention or even after school detention. This goes on records! "Student didn't wear a grey shirt and blue shorts, so they go after school detention" make that make sense. Teachers here are either kind or rude, most do not care of your learning. They will leave you behind if you cannot grasp the subject within a week rather than ensuring all kids are able to learn. They will get angry if you ask questions as if it isn't their responsibility to answer these questions for students. While there is tutoring, it shouldn't be needed if teachers are able to teach properly, and many students do not join tutoring in fear they will be bullied for being "stupid" which the school does nothing to stop. Bullying is a huge factor to this school, I myself had been bullied for looking "different" I wore band Tees and had a side part, multiple times I've been called names in front of teachers, yet they brush it off, I have been threatened because I was answering questions in class, I've been called nerd and dork. The teachers do nothing and neither will the office. Even if they do, the worse they get is detention. I witnessed a fight before, the kid that started it got a week of In school suspension, while the other walked in the hallways in fear that the friends of the bully will harm him. And while I admire the school's ability to see the "good" in "bad" kids, they refuse to notice that even after months of being a problem, they will not suspend a kid for longer than a week or keep them in separate classes. They refuse to help the victims and only treat them on what they see and not what actually happens behind closed doors. This is why kids are in fear of their bullies. The school will do nothing if they tell. Instead the bullies will only bully more and continue, they might even turn worse for being a 'snitch'. Because the school basically allows this, these kids don't change and continue to make other kids uneasy or feel as if they cannot speak what they feel. Mr. Postiff, he is too strict, he dress codes shirts with bands on them, dress codes shirts with certain font, he dress codes my bracelets for being "spiked" they are rounded, and the spikes do not damage to the skin, a pencil would hurt more than my bracelets, and why would they care? I am a good kid, with good grades, and try hard, while there are kids that do drugs and are horrible people, but they do not care and focus more on harmless bracelets. They don't care about the children and rather dictate how kids act and look. The office ladies are rude, I bought a ticket for a road trip there and they spelled my name wrong, I asked them to change it, they said no. And they speak with attitude as if I am the problem.

This is the first time having to come to the actual district office. It looks like their buildings are on two streets. There are plenty of parking and even solar panels in the parking lot! Even if you walk into the main office, the receptionist will tell you where to go, like she did me, because there are different buildings for different services. It can be kind of confusing. Staff was kind, though, and the building I did have to go into for the info on fingerprinting I had to get buzzed into. This whole process was very easy, which I appreciated. My little girl will remain in the Panama-Buena Vista School District for Jr High as well, so I'm hoping my experience will remain as pleasant as it has been for elementary!

Awful is an understatement!…read more I have requested a copy of my students IEP for over a month. I am very well aware this is part of the parents rights to obtain a copy of it for their records. My child is in 7th grade this isn't her first IEP and won't be her last. I have emailed the woman who conducted the meeting Monica H., as well as her teacher who is supposed to be giving her a whole period of extra help AND the principal of Stonecreek. Finally went in person, asked the front desk lady. She wrote my name down I STILL LEFT WITH NO IEP. No IEP still. Maybe not conduct the IEP meetings via zoom? That way the parent can get a copy after the meeting is over? No responses on email from multiple people including the principal who are all employed at Stonecreek nor the woman who represented PBVUSD that led the IEP meeting back in early September. The lack of communication and care is shameful. They have pushed her through grade after grade knowing she has autism and a learning disability. Her teachers have no problem failing her knowing she has this disability. Grades are supposed to be weighted. She turns in all of her work and has 4 Fs in multiple subjects. Clearly she's in classes that are too hard for her. Wouldn't that be a sign to provide this child with more services? Not at Stonecreek or PBVUSD. They are content pushing her through each subject and grade with MINIMAL help.

Sophomore year she got a new teacher and I don't like him very much.

I also don't like that he uses caps lock to make a point to my daughter in emails. I will be putting her in regular classes come the fall of '24 I wish there was another independent study teacher besides the current one.
