The school is horrible almost all the teachers are sexist and they dont pay attention to bullying, we never get to learn anything because the teachers stretch everything out so much we end up learning one math problem. And the food is horrible and safety is also horrible like I've gotten bullied since the beginning of the year and now they did something about it and it was just eat food in the office for one day so everything is just horrible

Not really happy with the quality of education my children are receiving here. Some of the teachers are very involved and compassionate with the students, while others seem to overlook bullying that happens in their classrooms, or are not very patient with struggling students. Both my children have had either issues with bullies or issues with little to no help with their struggles in math or reading. I am concerned that one of my children is not prepared enough for the next grade level. On a positive note--I feel that my other child is well prepared to enter the next grade level, because the teacher made sure to be consistent and caring. Would not recommend Orchard Hollow, as a matter of fact found out after the fact that Orchard Hollow has a huge bullying problem that has been around for years. If I had know this maybe I would have tried to move into the Fairfax or Bellflower boundary lines.

My wife and I have been actively engaged with the amazing staff at Orchard Hollow for 15 years straight from having sent all 3 of our children here. Couldn’t think of one area where I wouldn’t score perfect. Thank you : )

This school is the reason we moved to this area. The teachers are very involved and compassionate about each student and they follow through with everything. My son was diagnosed with behavioral disorders and before the doctor could even recommend or suggest a plan of action, the school offered counseling and other interventions to help him. Even the doctor was impressed!

This school has been the worst experience ever. The other parents are snobby and clicky and superior. I have had issues with my child being bullied by other students and some of the teachers. The teachers have been involved in name calling. I feel as though I have had to fight for my child every step of the way. My child has frequently come home from elementary school because of something mean that a teacher has said.
