School Reviews
2 I dont know what the big deal is? Beging healthy was something the entire district is doing not just Rose Hill. We have schools like Kearney Middle School who were awarded by the CDE for being an excellent school. Dedicated to there students. As well as kemp who works excellent with students especially special Ed students. We cant say the same about Rose Hill, who has state complain with the CDE. This school may have some good deeds, but its sad to know that the greater problems are only being pushed aside. True they may work great with some students but they lack compasion to work with others who need a little more pacience and care.Wolf in sheeps clothing. Isnt what trully matters about a school how they help and teach students be successful despite whether or not the child has a disability. The level of effort put into the children should be the same. Sadly the news and people with power are only interested in how well the school presents itself and not how the children area trully treated. I hope that Rose Hill will someday be as it was when Mrs.Pacheco was the principle. I hope the news will search deeper to recognize the people and schools that give there maximum to help our students. - Posted by Parent - carol |
2 While I would agree with the previous comment about the teachers, it is ashame that so many of these teachers are lost year after year due to the new leadership in the building. Rose Hill was once a positive, close, community of teachers, parents, and others and sadly, the negativity has taken over. The school's turn over each year is proof of this, it is just too bad that the teachers and parents don't have more of a voice here so that they could (and would want to!) stay and the school's bully of a principal be the one to leave. —Submitted by a teacher
