1. The class size on this rating is COMPLETELY WRONG. They have about 30 to 35, sometimes even 40 students in 1 classroom, per 1 teacher. It is ridiculously over packed and parents have to get waivers to get them into a better school that is less crowded.2. The teachers here do nothing to keep the s...

Although teachers really do care about kids the treatment we got from the principal lacked the support we as parents expected, she will basically not hear ANY concern and blame us for everything. School psychologist needs more involvement as well.

I have been so impressed with the administration and all the faculty I have had the pleasure of meeting. I now have two sons at Kachina and they are thriving. I am so happy we transferred here this year.

Kachina is a great school that offers a plethora of resources and supports for their students. My child has attended Kachina since the kindergarten and she is doing so well. The teachers she has had have been incredible and truly care about her success and overall welfare.
