My daughter attends this school for TK, and I'm glad she'll be moving to our local school next year for K. TK is divided into early and late sessions (birds), but on special days, they all come at the early time. There have been so many early days that I could imagine it being really disruptive for some families. I telecommute most days, so it hasn't been as much of an issue, but we've kept her out a couple times because of the schedule changes. Also, the changes haven't always been clearly communicated, resulting in situations where one day, I went to drop my daughter off at the normal late bird time, only to be told that it was an early day. Now, maybe I missed something, but there were at least a half dozen other parents there with their kids too, so it wasn't just me. So, my options were to take her home or leave her there for less than an hour and a half...Today, we arrived at the school a few minutes before they close the gates and send kids to the office for late slips. Someone was closing the gates about 3 minutes early. She let my daughter through, then stopped her and took her to the office. There was a line of 'late' kids and parents there well before the time that the gates should have closed, even by the office clock (which was a minute fast). One last thing: for a field trip once, all of the kids came early. We received a message via the Remind app at about 7:50am, informing us that they wouldn't be back until almost an hour after the normal dismissal time. Really!?! The morning of, and we're just being told to adjust our schedules, via an app that many parents may not check until too late. I just can't with this school.

My daughter attended from K-3 grade excellent teachers we were very fortunate all of them very educated and passionate about their job.

I have had 3 kids go to Baldy View. The school is getting better and better. The principal Mr. C is wonderful and what the school has needed for years. He is caring to students and takes time to greet the parents. I am glad he is there and teaching his office staff to finally be polite to people and care about kids.

I wish teachers taught more and they did not overfill the lower grade classrooms so much and then force parents to teach their children what the teacher does not have "budget" for. Then they label kids as under-performing because they were unable to pay attention....perhaps if classrooms were less than 32 students in 1st grade there would be improvement. I am not happy with the outcome and see why my neighbors do not send their kids here. I am considering home schooling. Not to mention, the office staff is uncaring and rude.
