Worse, school teachers are horrible. As well as the principal. They talk about anti-bullying, but not only the students but the teachers as well, if you want your child to be safe. This isn't the school to trust.

Beatty is a wonderful school. The parking situation could be better. However, academically it's by far the best school.

I have volunteered at this school because of a Community event the principal was hosting. The level of care the principal shows to all of her students shows to those of us who volunteer in the district. Her approach to negative, combative parents is very cool-headed and mature which is what you need in this day when people use violence to solve problems involving 5-year old children and their teachers.Some people may want "instant results" and they think that their children should be more important than all others. As a non-parent at this school, I can truly say Mrs Hall interacts with the most aggressive, negative parents I have seen in any of the other schools I've helped at and she does it with class and maturity.

Parents are deliberately excluded from participating in child's education. Extremely racially biased teachers and principal. Hispanic children are not given equal opportunity to succeed.

Cannot stand this school.The principal Miss Hill is ridiculous. She absolutely stinks at handling school issues.Her staff of "watchmen" treat the students like prisoners, they are not allowed to do anything.If they do then they are immediately written up and unjustly punished by Miss Saenz, who I may say has over stepped her boundaries many times!!Some of the teachers here are absolutely great, then there are others that make examples out of students, knocking them down for every little thing.My son is only in first grade and is already losing his love for school because he is so scared to do any little thing wrong.This school needs to focus on bettering their academics for the students, not ruining their desire for school and learning by scaring them into imprisoned robots

Do not like this school at all. If there is an issue you can't talk to the principal, no one ever seems to see when confrontations breakout, and the school's test scores are horrible but they can't seem to improve. Unfortunately, I live in the area and was DENIED the transfer to another school. I have no choice but to stay.

This School is the best. My Daughter loves it here, and I also love the dedication the Teachers have for their students. The Principle is the best in my oppinion. She cares for all the kids here.
