Prescott Valley School
I wouldn't send my kids there again if it were the only school in a 100 mile radius. They are unorganized, tell you they have bus service, then half way through the year they stopped the bus service. There excuse was "it was complicated" Really? How complicated can it be to drive bus routes? I have to withdraw my children early because I have to be to work at 7:00AM and they will not pick the kids up at daycare, 1/2 mile away. I am a single parent and without bus service I have no options. I truly hate this school and regret ever enrolling my children there. They called my 3rd grade son a liar and punished him and only after I insisted they investigate further did they find out that he did not lie, but he did not get an apology. They simply took the other childs word without checking with bystanders. Once they did investigate at my insistance, they found out he told the truth of what happened. Totally hate this school. Find another school and save yourself the problems!
