La peor experiencia en escuelas. Ambiente inseguro, muchos "accidentes". Profesores y personal poco capacitados, discriminación a niños diferentes y sobre todo, abuso (bullying).

I've had 2 children in Bonnie Oehl. I want to say MOST teachers are good. The school has gotten much better in the last 8 years of working with them. Lots of diversity. I do wish there was more activities at the school for parents to attend. Not just Coffee with the principal. There is occasional bullying, nothing that can't be fixed if you're persistent. Amazing staff. The office ladies are new but the aides, CAPS lead, custodians, all sweet people. I would recommend Bonnie Oehl.

The principal is extremely unprofessional and rude. She talks to the children horribly and her staff.

The school is approving, and I recommend it. Although, of course, many schools have their flaws. The teachers are fantastic; they are patient, understanding, and proper at disciplining children. But the majority of the students' grades are below. My daughter attended this school from kinder to 6th and has grown very attached to the campus. The children as well are sweet and friendly. My child has received a few teasing from a particular girl during her years, but not necessarily bullying. There never are any fights. To obtain good grades, though, you must be able to learn a while on your own time. Since this is a much lower district, the lessons are not entirely kept abroad nor challenging. The teachers who help children with disabilities are very kind and amiable. Music classes are excellent and entertaining, yet the physical education teacher is lousy. P.E. classes are having the students run around the field four times (a mile), then the same free activities which will get boring later on. All in all, this school is good, but not perfect. Please check others out before having this as your first choice if there are other schools in mind.

It is truly amazing!! Both of my daughters have attended kinder to 5th grade and I am very honored to say it’s a great school.

My daughter, who loves school, attended Oehl from 1st-3rd grade and she hated it. The principal, Mr. Robert Morales will not discipline the students and a ton of them have 30+referrals for disciplinary problems without any action. The behavior was so out of control my child came home upset, complaining that she did not learn anything. Good teachers, TERRIBLE principal. Without the administrative support, the teachers cannot focus on teaching.

My child went to this school from 4th grade till 6th. He was bullied the whole time not just verbally but assualted on more than one occasion. My son is so sweet never been a problem at school and i didnt mention he is a special ed student. Not only did they fail to protect my son but seemed to blame him even though he only fought back once after years of abuse by others. Principal is worthless in helping and makes less of the bulling. So glad we are done there. Great school if you are a bully. Not great if you are the kid being bullied on a daily yes daily basis.
