Susan La Vorgna Elementary School

Very good. Staff was very engaged and drew my student in got her to be excited about school.

All of my children have had a wonderful experience here. I’ve been lucky enough to have the time to volunteer in my kids classes to observe their teachers and can truly say I couldn’t be happier with every one of them they’ve had.

My main concern is with the pick-ups. I currently have to pick up a kindergartner from this school and a first grader from French Valley. And I will pick French Valley Elementary every time. The child who goes here gets out at 2:35, and rarely gets out on time. Yet if they see you grab your kid at 2:40 they get overly upset with you and enjoy scolding you, and signing papers. Half the time I cannot even get her until 2:45 due to their lack of getting out of school, not even me not being there. I sit in the car early and they act like they are entitled beyond belief. Not to mention, that Middle School gets out at 3:00, and I have to wait for the teachers to release the first child, so I can rush over there. Its a silly comment, and I know of other people who feel the same, I just wish that they would take everyone's time into consideration.

This is easily one of the worst schools that any of my children have attended through the years. The principal comes off as friendly but does nothing to address the many concerns regarding unprofessional teachers, bullying, favoritism and school violence. There are a few great teachers but the quality of teachers is horrible. If you aren't one of the chosen ones you are out of luck. You are better off lots of other places.
