My son transferred here from Portola Hills Elementary and he loved it here. At the other school, they were not able to accommodate him due to lack of resources but here at Foothill Hill Ranch, they have all the resources to help him. Not only that but the teacher he had here for 2 years was amazing....

Disappointing. They care nothing for their students. BULLIES control the administration. The school also constantly asks for donations and blacklists students if they do not contribute.
