Sierra Heights Elementary School

"Very disappointed with Teacher/staff. Staff don't seem to understand the value of communication and more so accountability. It really feels like THEM vs US. There is no "TEAM." I haven't complained about a meal or a cup of coffee and I cannot express how much this pains me to even write this. They choose to raise their voices and literally bark their rules vs pulling a parent aside, introduce themselves so I at least know who's yelling at me and tell me the policy so we can make sure we follow it. That's 100 how it works here though. If I give my child a demand to come to me or I am walking to take his hand to escort him to our car I should NEVER have a Teacher or Assistant Principal physically hold their hand out to my child and say "no," while I say "Come" and we go back and fourth 3X. In addition, to ("yelling is a perception") talking terse and at a semi higher-volume to my child to do something against what I want when I am standing right in front on them, not even the respect to tell ME what needs to be done and not my child. Who barks demands at a child (6yr) to do something when the Staff sees me and what I am trying to accomplish which was taking my Childs hand and escorting to our car and not say it to the parent? I get safety concerns and policies, but trumping my right as a parent X2 now is beyond me, especially when we are new to the area and its our FIRST day of school. We will never back down from our perspective and what my CHILD (not me) deserves. If they are willing to talk to me this way and my child, how do they handle situations behind closed doors? Such a waste of my time and theirs. Happy to change my review and stance once we see a positive change regarding common respect and care."

"I have nothing bad to say about this school! Everything ranging from the staff to the students of 2005-2006, it was wonderful there!"
