The teachers here were really nice besides one of them. The students were okay, some of them bullied me, but that only lasted about a week and a half. The teachers were good at teaching, school was really easy at the time. I had a nice time here, wish I could've stayed.

We love this school. There are amazing teachers but there are other teachers that are good just not as strong as others. I'm sure it's like that everywhere.
The principal does not take bullying seriously. I was told that what my child felt was bullying really wasn't considered bullying. I think Childrens feelings should be considered when something is happening to them in class and on the playground. Regardless of what an adults opinion is.
We have had a great experience with LAS andnother resource teachers. They have all stepped up as a team to help our child succeed and I was amazed how they all came as one to help with our child's IEP.

Sycamore Canyon Elementary school is a small school where everyone is valued and made to feel welcome. Our Principal, teachers, and staff are amazing and care for each and every student. Sycamore is a school where education is a priority and everyone is important. I could not be happier that my grandchild, as well as another grandchild previously, and my own children are privileged to be able to attend this fine school.
