  I would not recommend this school to anyone I am horrified by these teachers and how the school treats the kids. This school obviously doesn't care about anything besides its reputation to the point where they dont even care enough to buy vollyball court. I have been at this schoo for several years now and I can say with pride that I have had no good years. The teachers here dont care about the students and its obvious and simple. I would never even suggest this school to anyone. In the past year a boy has brought a knife and a girl was intoxicated in 8th grade. This school clearly has to start caring for there students. There are a few teachers who are amazing and should be treated with respect.

  Excellent School. The teachers are very supportive of my child. My child used to get behind in school, but this school won't let them. Students who get behind or complete their homework incorrectly have the opportunity for remediation after school or make up on Saturday mornings. This was the answer for my child who would often get behind or not understand the homework and go ahead and write anything down just to turn the homework in. It only took a couple of Saturdays to correct this practice.

  What a great school, My child started at Presidio in middle school. After coming from an educational nightmare this school was able to provide the nurturing my child needed to believe that success was a possibility. That possibility quickly became a reality due to the kindness and support of the teachers, staff and fellow students. The teachers take pride in their work and are available both to the students and the parents and seem to genuinely want the students accomplish their goals. The school chooses to empower the students by teaching them the pillars of character and expects the students to respect and support one another. Bullying is simply not tolerated. I have spoken with both teachers and administrators and have found them to be willing to listen and they have readily addressed any and all concerns. The fact that this school is open on Saturday for any student needing to use the facilities computers or instruction aides shows the willingness to go above and beyond. High school offers AP classes with an expectation of a collegiate future. Very few sports but they do offers some unique experiences…. Wright Flight, Sea Camp in San Diego, Camping on Mt Lemon, Capoeira, Art and even a school Band just to name a few.

  My children have been attending Presidio for 6 years. The teachers are very dedicated to their work. The smaller class sizes (usually 17-20 students) allow the teachers to give more 1 on 1 time with students. There is a great community feel around campus with older students mentoring younger students. They have a strong focus on Math which I really enjoy. The "specials" classes include traditional types like art and music, but also tumbling and Capoeira (which my kids just love!). One knock I would give is there is sometimes a lack of communication from the front office on events or special days.Overall Presidio School is a great school with a quality staff. Both of my sons love their friends and teachers and look forward to school!

  I see a committed staff at Presidio. The teachers are some of the best I have been around. Students are friendly and helpful. It is amazing how they can do so much with so little.

  I am impressed with how this school has developed into an "A for Arizona" school of excellence. The principal, Dr. Saliba, and the entire faculty are knowledgeable, professional, and really care for the students. Both our children are receiving a quality education with an emphasis 21st century skills. The school lives up to the Presidio family and we are proud to be part of it!

  Boooooooooooooooooooo so awful the way they treat children at this jail. No graduates go to a university...all to community college or worse.

  I agree totally with the comment that said, the positive reviews are likely fake—the school is awful to good teachers and awful to students with learning challenges. They do a great job of PRETENDING to be a good school. The police are often there and the govt has looked into into its files.

  My son has attended Presidio for 7yrs now, and will continue to go there. Presidio is an awesome and amazing school where kids get quality education at its best and great preparation for college. I totally recommend Presidio to all parents!
