The first day of school was August 24, 2026. I dropped my fourth grader off at school and I wanted to know if I signed my child up for being a bus rider so I go up there went to the office and and proceeded to explain that I needed my child to go on the bus today. The office stated OK yes your child will go on the bus today. I will call down to her classroom to let her know .school let out kids went home. Im at the bus stop waiting for my child to get off which she did not the worry and panic that I felt when my child did not get off the bus no mother should feel. what I want to explain that the office looked me in my face and lied and said they told my daughter to get on the bus. When I asked my child did someone let you know that I said get on the bus and she said no. now I have no faith or trust in Malibu employees miscommunication is through the roof and its unacceptable for the first day of school and my child did not get on the bus when I went up there and told them to do so its like they didnt care or wasnt concerned. How can I build trust with a school that my child is in when they can cant even relay a simple message telling my child to get on a school bus.

Personally, I don't understand how this school even has great reviews. They don't even try and it's a waste of time.
