    Honestly, as a single father, I expect a lot better from the teachers. Last year my daughter had…read moreMiss Carter Stewart, who was an amazing teacher.Very helpful. Very genuine !! This year My daughter has mrs Heidi Ellinger ,in my opinion she is a big game player .! Since the beginning of the year she's had an epiphany against me . I was not able to attend the beginning of the year meetings due to I had just started in the union . Now I have a little bit more time just because I was offered a job through Union friend with better benefits, and more pay who would not switch especially when it's something I love and I'm able to take all those days off, I have my princess !! Moving forward that's beyond the point !! My daughters mother and her husband was able to attend . I was not able to obtain any information due to personal reasons .I've always tried to speak with the teacher .I had just went to this trimesters . Parent teacher conference, which I was able to obtain some really good information to see what my daughter needs to work on but unfortunately the teacher was playing the game from when I had shown up trying to figure out me more about me than keep it on a respectable professional level.. which is very disrespectful from somebody that has graduated with honors I just is looking for the same for my kid! Anyone that is a single parent understands where I'm coming from we're not here to play games. We are here to figure out what our kids need to work on that we truly do love unconditional . I see why a lot of people are turning to homeschooling because of the nonsense that we have to deal with in public schools. Unfortunately, if it was my choice, my daughter would be at nelda Munday elementary where I attended and I see why they're still a distinguish school way better school a lot more respectable teachers. Now the teacher was playing the game so much with me. I'm worried about mine and my families well-being, and it shouldn't be like that coming from a public school. And unfortunately, if this keeps occurring or the game keeps being played with somebody, that does not want to be, my lawyers will be getting involved. Send the reviews from the school. I'm sure there's multiple parents that would not mind starting at class action lawsuit on the civil rights movement . I just wanted to make it known because instead of me making a public scene I like to put it all down documented and this is the best way to do it. I have a long commute all the way from San Francisco just to put up with nonsense which is very unfortunate. Hoping when my mother helps me now she will not be in harms way as well. Thanks

    The leadership at Rolling Hills School is horrible. Dr. Danny Gentry is lazy and sits in his office…read moreall day. He doesn't interact with the students or parents. All he does is create AI-generated memes and emails. Dr. Gentry does not lead the school as an instructional leader. He canceled every staff meeting last school year and doesn't ensure collaborative time on short Wednesdays is utilized by teachers. Our children's instructional time is wasted! He puts his work on other staff members. The academics at this school have dropped considerably. There is no data-driven decision-making by this incompetent leader. He has been observed making comments about the staff members whose husbands abuse them and who do and do not come from money. He has created a culture of gossip. Many families are choosing to remove their children from this school. I encourage you to do the same.

    This school has a new principle this year and I have watched it blossom under his leadership.

I feel very safe leaving my child here. She reads and does math much better than I did at her age. Don't listen to nay sayers who only want to hear themselves talk and complain. In fact, you should be doing that to the principle, not on an open forum. He wants to hear your concerns. This school is the best in the Fairfield area and you won't be disappointed. Btw, my daughter loves the new walking and running routine in the morning before school now. It is so easy to drop her off. No more fits, she just kisses me and runs off to the playground to dance and run to the music. Great job staff! 2015/2016 school year is a hit! Parents, volunteer and see your kids school at work. They need your help and your support both in time and opinion.

She shared a story and even showed fake tears of her and a story about someone in her family with Autism. My son has been able to read and write since he was two. We was told that one of the reasons is because he speaks African American at home, which is why he is having speech problems. My son would come home in tears saying that Cindy would make him feel stupid and he would have to always say sorry for his actions. We than went out and had a individual test of my son and they was heart broken to hear how a teacher could make someone so intelligent feel shelled in and insecure at such a young age. We pulled our son because of the protesting going on in front of the school and Cindy saying she can't do anything for my son because she is a public school teacher. Cindy called one day and asked if we can bring a toy so she could use it a pacifier for my son. I told her no that he has been in programs since 2, she went against what we said and bought him a toy and told him not to tell his parents. That was the last straw and he was pulled from the school immediately.

I love the diversity of this school. Not only is it diverse in racial/ethnic make up, but also in socioeconomic level as well, which exposes my kids to all walks of life--this is sooooo important in raising today's children. I couldn't be happier with this school.

    (Update from recently emoved Google review)…read more This is a long review and will change from time to time, but... Reflecting on my time from this high school, I have to say that I have mixed feelings, leaning more towards negative over time. Even though I made some to a lot of friends, a lot of other people made me feel quite uncomfortable with their assertion, unwelcomeness and unpleasantness. Even the teachers and staff were not the best at helping with me with my issues at times, with a counselor named Beltramo outright excusing a bully when they were hitting me quite hard despite me not doing anything to them. Now the teachers were not the best with how they handled students, with Centeno not being a pleasant experience, even if she got a little better later on before leaving her class. She always yelled and screamed in front of my ears when I made a small error when having a pencil instead of a pen, yelling "PUT THE PENCIL AWAY!" and also being quite short tempered whenever I didn't meet her expectations. But she was not the only one who made my studies and experience worse. Of note who made my experience worse was a former teacher named David Long. Although I tried to clear up an altercation with him, he was telling me that "people who wear black like you are troublemakers, unlike me". When I tried to tell former Principal Bill Sarty about what happened, he told me "don't take too long, kid" and then refused to update to me about Mr. Long after our conversation where I didn't become punished. One other was Librarian Patricia Pelfrey. Even long after I stopped making jokes in the library for a short while, she was unpleasant and surprisingly rude to me. Whenever I talked to her, she was being quite demanding and unsettling, telling me to "hurry up" and insulting me behind my back. She was quite short-tempered to me, despite giving her my gratitude and thanks long after I ceased my jokes around my friends in the library. Rest in peace to her, no one has to go through what she went through, but my criticisms have nothing to do with her passing or prior condition. Regardless, I did not have a pleasant experience with her at all, but I also hope her family is doing well. Not all of it was bad, even if it does outweigh the goods. A few of the staff, especially the attendance staff and a sweet lady into Spider-Man, gave me great life lessons that not everyone must be liked, not even some good people. And a lot of friends were fun, even if some of them were shortlived or even former friends that ended poorly. I especially had fun times with Gard, one of my favorite teachers who was quite resourceful and kind. And Yu, my all time favorite despite not starting well due to her initial unpleasantness that turned into genuine friendship. And I want to add one of the most important events that traumatized and psychologically scarred me, was about one classmate. After she ignored my apology about being furious at her and her friends in gym, she not only sexually harassed me about my "size" at one point, but when I criticized her about it she gaslit me into making me think that I'm making things up. That is why I hate 2016 & 2017, and I had to deal with some friends and family tell me that I'm "freaking out" and "stop feeling traumatized!", feeling minimized and underneath a lot of people. As a result, awful moments like these shattered me and ruined my perception of reality for years to come. And this happened 10 years ago, so is it really my fault for having trauma and still having thoughts about them for this long? In general, even though I tried to look on the bright side and find some positives, I believe the flaws outweigh the goods. It was not a great time to be in, especially after these moments plus a few grand tragedies with my former friends, to the point that it changed me forever for the worse overall. I'm sorry, family, I know I can look at the positives but that mindset minimizes what I've been through. Even if others had it worse than me, these are my experiences and they were not as pretty as one might think.

    It's an ok school. Just like any school it has its how and downs. But the staff does not understand…read moretheir own Rules of 85 or how to properly apply it.
