Rebecca Unver is the worst teacher , she is rude , horrible to the kids , and an unhappy miserable person: you can tell by how she speaks. A lot of children including my son told me that she throws their homework on the floor and makes them pick it up like it's trash . She's the most unfit person to be a teacher and I'm wondering everyday why she's still there. She also likes to bully her class and say mean things to them , I have a long list of evidence and have met with the principal regarding her behavior but I needed to post this and warn other parents , I wouldn't want their child to go through what these kids have gone through.

Children from my family has attended Vine Elementary school for years and it has always been an…read moreelite school until these past few years. but one thing that bothered me the most was how Mrs Levesque humiliated a staff member from the after school program (RAS) because she made a report to CPS when there was reason to be concerned for a child's safety and well being. I learned that this staff member was fired for contacting CPS, as she is mandated to do. As many know and I, myself knows very well, that ALL school staff members are mandated reporters. One day when I went to pick up my granddaughter I saw Ms. Levesque approach this staff member and a few mins later that staff member came to release my grandkid and saw tears down her cheecks so i asked what was wrong the staff member told me that mrs Levesque had just humiliated her with saying to use this as a lesson to be more professional not only for herself but her staff and to learn to do her job better. I found that very disturbing that the principal would tell her this after this woman had already lost her job and it was her last day at Vine..not professional at all.

The good, the bad, and the ugly:…read more The good: The community. The teachers, parents, and students all seem to be insync with providing a good environment for the children. There is a fundraiser every month to improve the quality and materials in the school. API is in the high 800 and more near 900 which is outstanding for a Covina elementary school. It truly is the best of Covina's schools. The bad: Class size is large, students do not get a lot of personal attention. However, they are a public school and the best so its understandable. Teachers are good, but you find a few here and there that you just don't like. The Ugly: The school could use a make-over and a little new paint. The people in the office are usually not the friendliest. They tend to forget that they are providing a service. The district itself is not good at keeping records. Whenever we get our transferred renewed I have to literally stay on top of the process the whole time because our paperwork got lost twice in the past two years. I believe the district has had the same people working these offices for years. They really need to do an assessment and hire some fresh blood that are hungry for work and experience with better people skills.

Their theater space is amazing, one of the nicest I've seen on a high school campus. Tonight we came to see " Little Shop of Horrors". All the students acted, sang, and danced their hearts out. We really enjoyed it! It's great to see family, peers, and teachers come to watch and support them.

There is one teacher who really appears to bond just a little better than the other. Not sure what his name is but as the kids where walking up to get their promotional certificates for graduation yesterday 6/4/25 he did special gestures with each and everyone of his students which was a treat to watch. Thank you to that awesome teacher! My biggest complaint was that the promotion was exceptionally long! I attended a college graduation and a HS graduation both within these last 3 weeks and this 8 grade promotion by far was the longest! Maybe if the principal hadn't gone on and on and talked so much it would have made it much shorter and more enjoyable. The video at the end was absolutely great and as each one signed off made it even more special. This is the second promotion I have attended for this school. Maybe next year make it more about the kids and not the principal and shorten it. Congratulations to class of 2025! Go little sharks and become big sharks!

Both my kids came to Cameron and trust me, the last 2 years before i never had to return didn't come fast enough. If you are considering this school, i believe she left the school and have no idea of new principle. Be aware that her lasting affects may still linger. She had NO personality, rude, un welcoming and un likable really.... TRUST ME! Most the amazing teachers are gone, but Miss Esquejeri may still be there, she is wonderful! I can truly say i enjoyed this school till she arrived and she ruined my last 2 years of my kids grade school. Thankfully she is gone and HOPE the new principle brings the shine BACK to CAMERON!
