The special needs classes are tremendous with passionate teachers and an effective system for students.
Principal Melanie Moss is an unclear communicator, and unappreciative and even hostile toward substitute teachers. A few days after substituting in a special needs class there, she called me saying I had struggled and asked me to give an explanation. I felt the subbing had gone well I had done my best and had received positive feedback from fellow teachers who encouraged me to keep subbing there in the future. When I asked Principal Moss what she was referring to, she refused to tell me and instead kept me guessing calling me defensive. I later learned that she had not communicated with those fellow teachers, but that she was referring to a separate, brief conversation I had had earlier that day with a different schools principal. Her school needs substitutes often, especially in special ed, but being unclear and disrespectful toward them makes it hard to feel supported or motivated to take assignments there.

This school has been open for a couple years now, and has been great for our kids. Teachers are experienced, and their desire to keep the classroom engaging and interesting shows. The campus is nice, well-secured, and lots of cameras. Supervision around campus before and after school is just okay - lots of chaos without staff around to help regulate when kids are leaving (and arriving). Administration is approachable, not always perfect, but definitely willing to address issues, to the best of their ability. Campuses always change, with new teachers and new administration - this school benefits from an established district, helping keep experienced teachers out front. Would be nice for the campus to truly move in to becoming a dual-immersion for all grades at all levels, but this is likely more of an undertaking than can be accomplished right now. School uses different online platforms to help communicate with parents, which is nice.

In my experience this school is exceptional. We attended another school in the district and have been impressed with Quarry Trail and feel that the leadership is great! My kids have been thriving. One if my kiddos has a learning disability and the support we have received at this school is impressive. My child saw significant growth over the last two years due to the support and accommodations received. IEP plans feel collaborative and focused on my child's best interests. Additionally I have another child in the dual immersion program and have been equally impressed. The 1st grade kids participated in a play at the end of last year that was in both English and Spanish, the amount of time and commitment these teachers put into making the dual language program successful is evident and truly appreciated. I would absolutely recommend this school.

The principal is incompetent and the cross guards will harass you in the pick-up zone. My husband is a white male and he has been dropping my son off for 2 years at this school at the drop-off zone without being harassed. During the first week, I started dropping and picking my son up from the drop-off zone, I was approached by one of their cross guards and told that I couldn't get out of the car. How am I supposed to buckle my son into his car seat if I don't get out of the car? What happened to safety first? They don't care neither does the principal. I talked to her about it and she said go park somewhere as if she is annoyed. It was not like I stepped away from the car and left it running for more than a few minutes. If people are crowded around your vehicle and you need to go around them to get your child's attention when his teacher is letting him out, yes I will need to step out briefly to get my child and buckle him in his safety seat. I would have to disagree with the ratings at this school. Also, given the amount of money we pay their salaries, they can do a better job. The school is constantly asking for donations, but they will tell you "Don't send your child to school in a Halloween costume if they can't zip up their Halloween outfit after using the restroom." While that's fine and I did not send my child to school in a Halloween outfit...stop asking for so many locations from the people that pay taxes and your salary if you are going to be lazy and only think about yourselves. If you are not white or male, good luck being treated with respect.
