This school is horrid. My child graduated from the middle school program in June, and had the the absolute worst experience. Bullying is horrible, fights in the bathrooms, cyberbullying, threats, rumors, everything you can think of. The middle school is INCREDIBLY small, less than 100 kids for the entire program, with 30 kids per grade. (6th, 7th, 8th) The new principal does not know how to handle the middle schoolers, let alone elementary aged children.My child was relentlessly bullied by classmates, and teachers did absolutely nothing. Teachers pretend to care, and waste classtime every chance they get. Bullying, and social isolation is extremely common, and god forbid your child is special needs. This school does not deserve the awards it gets. The new principal rewards average behavior, and forces the older kids to mingle with younger children.Did I mention there is only ONE class for the middle schoolers? No lockers, no moving classes, no schedule. Just in one classroom the entire day with a measly 15 minute break and lunch. The school is horrible at preparing its middleschoolers for highschool, and has little to no extracurriculars. The robotics team is run by two women who do not know what they are doing, there is no GATE program, no sports, absolutely nothing. This school is not a good school! Students are rude, staff is ignorant, and parents are even worse.

The principal makes everything difficult. I had to report issues to the district's superintendent because of how this school runs. The teachers are either incredible or horrible. There is no in-between. The staff is very helpful, but again the principal will make sure they can not give more help. They also do not provide resources for parents. More of a figure it out or you are screwed attitude. No holiday celebration what so ever. Fun fact: children have to be quiet in the cafeteria. I do not recommend, this is not a safe school when it comes to mental health or social/emotional growth. They focus strictly on academic scores. So many other choices in Compton for our youth.
