I know of 4 students who moved away to the other elementary school this year. All were special needs. Kids needing extra help or who's parents assert themselves slowly but surely find themselves wondering why they fight and if they can win. Yopp wants a smooth operation, not kids with ADHD. From what I saw it was not mean, but she is in over her head to help kids who need more, and further ties the hands of staff who openly support kids and parents who need more help and cost more to teach. It seems she wants them to go away and smiles politely but nothing changes and eventually she gets what she wants since a parent cant wait forever before the kid gets help.
We moved here last year to be in this District. My Daughter loved her first year here! She is special needs and the School has been wonderful with every aspect of her development. My second daughter will be starting this fall and is very excited, due to the whole staff making her feel welcome when she helps pick up her big sister. Dr. Yopp could not be a better Principal as far as our experience in the last year. She has gone out of her way to make everyone feel welcome, safe and happy. I think she tries her hardest to find an equal balance between staff and parents. There are the cliques here if you were not born here or did not start your children here. Otherwise, we are truly happy that when we moved from another state we chose this District.
Agua Caliente Elementary is an excellent school for children to attend. The class sizes are the perfect size. There's just enough kids to make everything work. Parents are always volunteering for various activities. The students are just as great. They are always lending a hand to the other students and to the land. The principal, Dr. Yopp, is wonderful. She's always doing the quirkiest things to help the school raise money. This is her second year of teaching and there are certainly more years to come. Everyone's waiting to see what zany thing she'll plan to do next year.
