Hillview Middle School has been a solid school for students in the Palmdale area. The campus is…read moreclean and well-kept, and most of the teachers genuinely care about their students' success. You can tell that many of them go above and beyond to make learning engaging, especially in subjects like science and English. The administration does a pretty good job of keeping parents informed through emails and school events, and there's usually good communication between staff and families. The school also offers a variety of clubs and activities that help kids find their interests outside of class. Like any middle school, it has its challenges--some larger class sizes and the occasional discipline issue--but overall, it feels like a safe, structured environment where students can learn and grow. If you're in the Palmdale area and looking for a school that balances academics, extracurriculars, and a supportive staff, Hillview Middle is a solid choice.

The things that attracted us to select Paraclete High School are the Safety record of the school with respect to students, the class sizes and the overall small school atmosphere. We felt that she would get lost at the larger school in our area. We are so glad that we selected Paraclete. She is prepared for college and even today tutors some of her college friends with Essay writing and other academics they struggle with. We will always be fans of Paraclete! R.

AVC is an excellent school to go to. There are a lot of clubs and on-campus activities that makes…read moremeeting new people a breeze. If you want to transfer to a four-year university, there is a program that helps you navigate through all the courses you need. The transfer counselors care about the students and are more than happy to help them. Their goal is to get you to a university. The student service programs that AVC have is expertly helpful. They have a Learning Center, which is one of the most beneficial areas for students to achieve. There are FREE tutoring services for almost all the courses. From art to engineering, there is most likely a tutor. If not, you can request for one to be found. The only part about AVC that I don't like are the restroom facilities. They are always dirty, and sometimes a majority of toilets don't work or are broken in some way. They are also usually out of soap too, so I have to keep a bottle of hand sanitizer with me. All in all, Antelope Valley College is an outstanding school and is a great place to start if you want to further your education.

The staff mentioned it was very difficult and competitive. And maybe it is but it is not their job to discourage or feel anyone discriminated. Not sure if my age or I hate to even say that status also was part of it. A more professional way to handle it would have been just to say "talking to a counselor would give you a better understanding of what fits better for you". Unfortunately this is the second bad experience I have at AVC I can now see why people I know decide to go to COC or moopark

We have been blessed with teachers who love their students, take time to know them individually, and develop a lasting relationship with both the students and us parents. Whenever I have had an issue, it has been resolved quickly and to my satisfaction. Those who truly believe in a God-centered education will not be disappointed. DCS is safe, positive and provides a diverse selection of advanced academics, athletic opportunities and enrichment programs. I've read other reviews, and no school is going to be a perfect fit for everyone. It's not reasonable to expect that. Schedule a tour and observe the students in their regular environment. It's a vast difference from the bullying, language and drama in other schools. You will see genuine friendship, acceptance, and camaraderie. This eliminates wasted time spent on conflict and promotes a positive learning experience. Don't take my word for it- go see for yourself!

The elementary administration and teachers are outstanding and absolutely deserve 5 stars. Unfortunately, I can't say the same for the middle school. While the introduction, meet-and-greet, and initial impressions were wonderful, only one quarter in and things feel chaotic and extremely disorganized and unsafe, not from external but internally. It functions more like a public school with one added Bible class. Some students frequently fight--or as their discipline coordinator calls it, "roughhousing"--and there seems to be little control over students' language, so constant cursing is simply tolerated, pushing each other, hitting each other "playfully" is okay and if your child is in the crossfire or yourself "oh well".

PARENTAL WARNING If…read moreyou have the option -- do NOT enroll your child in any school within this district. There are ongoing allegations involving multiple staff members, including two teachers and a vice principal, who are under investigation for serious misconduct -- including allegations of sexual abuse. I was alerted to this by another concerned parent. When we contacted the school to demand answers, they refused to take action and stood by their staff -- without opening a formal investigation. The safety and well-being of our children should never be optional or up for debate. I immediately withdrew my child from the school. This is not drama. This is not gossip. This is real. And this is dangerous. Your child's life is more important than this district's reputation. Don't wait until it's your child. Pull them out. Now.

Quartz Hill High School is much like any high school. You have your cliques, your sports, your…read moreclubs and your friends. I spent four of my most formative years here and while it was not all straight A's for me, I would not trade those years for the world. I started my time at QHHS in 1997, the first year of the International Bacchelorate AP program. I was in pre-IB as were many people who would become my friends. Honestly, I struggled with it and after a year and a half, I was dropped from the program and put into the standard classes. This is where I made my mark. I joined the Academic Decathalon team in my sophomor year and remained there until graduation. We had a great coach and he made us better every season. We never won any events but we improved and some of us even won medals. We had some good times. QHHS has football, tennis, baseball, swimming and cheer teams too. I was not involved with any of the sports. I knew many of the football players and remember having lunch with them in the auto shop. Cars were more to my liking than were sports so it was enjoyable to eat lunch in the shop while the jocks talked about sports and worked on cars. QHHS always had a strong car culture. We had annual car shows that brought out some awesome rides. Some students cars were nicer than the teachers. Yes, QHHS is your typical high school. There are some good teachers and some who are not so great. There are clubs for just about everybody. They play all the major sports that you want a high school to play. One thing QHHS has that no other school that I am aware of has is the "Ian Stewart Memorial." He was a classmate of mine and graduated in 2001 same as me. I did not know him personally but I remember seeing him around campus. He was killed in action in 2004 just 3 years after we graduated. Ten years later a group of QHHS class of 2001 alumni raised the funds to erect the monument at the corner of Avenue L and 60th Street West right in front of the office. I am glad I got to see it this last weekend.
