I am very sad to see the negative reviews. I am a firm believer that it takes a village to create something good. If you are a person who complains about everything you are adding to the problem. Small towns need great go-getters who are willing to step- up and help small schools, who lack all the funding to offer all the bells and whistles big town schools offer. These negative people need to ask themselves, are they adding to the problem? or are they part of the solution?? Potrero is a great school with an awesome Principal (Lugo) great staff who care about their students. Is the school perfect? No school is perfect! Be the change you want to be! My kids attend this school and quite frankly you will get out of it what you put in! Be involved and help!

First day for young kids, in regards to safety alone I'm in shock at the pure negligence and hope to be out of this school soon.

Potter has the potential to be a great school however poor leadership breaks this school. Having a principal who will do everything in her power to make her staff miserable and does not want parents to be involved in their children's education is ridiculous. The district needs to get more involved and see how she is running this school in the ground.

This was my first and thankfully last year at potrero. The middle school teachers are wonderful but academically this school is terrible. I was ahead of the class and due to that i had to spend the entire day learning on the computer. It was okay at first but after a while it got tiring. I am in 7th grade and was learning 8th grade things on the computer yet they for some reason couldn't move me up a grade. There are no electives and in my opinion do not instruct PE properly. A word of advice: do not bring your children to this school unless it is your only option!!
