OUSD LCAP 2019-20 Student Survey Summary – February 2020
Orange Unified School District (OUSD) Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP) Student Survey Summary The following is a summary of the data collected from the survey of OUSD parents. This data summary is arranged to provide survey results by item.
Instrument: Survey items were developed to capture respondents’ perceptions of how well the district is achieving its LCAP goals for 2019-2020. This survey is structured so that respondents would retrospectively report on the degree to which they felt each item was met, accomplished, or achieved.
Methods: The survey was administered as an online only survey with an approximate 3-month administration window; September 30, 2019 to December 20, 2019. Following standard Evaluation, Assessment & Data Center (EADC) survey protocol, a website was created showing how many responses were received in near-real time. The web address to this site was emailed to the district the day after the survey window opened to ensure a high response rate. At the end of the survey window, 5,648 survey responses were received (N=5,648).
Analysis: The data analysis strategy for quantitative data consists of basic descriptive statistics (frequencies and percentages); percentages were rounded to the nearest whole number. Unanswered items (i.e., blanks) and items answered with “N/A” were excluded from the analysis. Percentages from the 2018-2019 survey (where applicable) are provided for comparison purposes.
All comments received are included in the Appendix by school site, comments that are confidential in nature are listed separately. Comments are transcribed as they were received.

Appendix
School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Anaheim Hills Elementary • A way OUSD can help me get ready for college is maybe have a practice test and read the book or anything that can prepare me for the real test. This is a choice for you but maybe at a certain time it should be reading time so people can get ready for reading counts. Anaheim Hills Elementary • A way that OUSD can improve my educational experience is having GATE classes because sometimes, people are getting slowed down by others who don't understand something, and that is wasting their time. It would also be better because the kids in GATE classrooms could have more opportunities to learn. Anaheim Hills Elementary • add more details. Anaheim Hills Elementary • Another way that OUSD can improve educational experience is by having different teachers for each subject. Anaheim Hills Elementary • By teaching us how to social. Also, teach us everyday things that we will need to know later in the future. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I do not know of any more ways you gusse can help. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I don't have any suggestions to improve the school in any ways that I know of. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I don't know how OUSD can improve my educational experience. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I don't know really. My school is a pretty good school with academics. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I don't really have any good ideas on how the school can improve. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I don't think any changes need to be made. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I need to learn more about science in school since we only have like 1 or two day of science. Mostly every day we were learning about social study, and only learn science one or twice. I think that we should be learn science more at school, to help us in our future career ,or when we are in college.. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I think a little more free time to get my unfinished work done and complete without it being late. Also if our teacher could write assignments on our White Board and keep them up there until they are due. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I think I would need to improve in my writing and study better for a test. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I think OUSD can help me by giving more money to my school so we can have better things like our school lunch. I also think that OUSD can help us with our fitness program morning fitness taught by the 6th graders all we really need is better materials! Anaheim Hills Elementary • I think OUSD can help people by encouraging them to do harder things and push themselves if they are above average instead of them laying back and not pushing themselves. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I think OUSD needs to improve in giving a better amount in homework. I feel that there is always homework to do. I play sports and I usually have practice every day of the week, and it’s hard to balance both especially when you have 3 math packets to do. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I think OUSD should let people have more recess time. For example 6 year olds get more recess then use 6th graders. I feel like everyone should be equal.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Anaheim Hills Elementary • I think that I need a little more time for some of my work, and that teachers should post homework regularly on google classroom, or other sites just in case students forget something on their agenda.(Or if they're absent and they will know what to do at home) Anaheim Hills Elementary • I think that our school needs better punishments for bullying. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I think that OUSD can improve my education and to go to college or get a job is to be supportive in any way . And to push me or my piers to try their best and deal what you have on grades. I also want OUSD to push e in stuff I don't like. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I think that OUSD can improve on math and science. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I think that OUSD can improve with more teachers to help the students more. I also think that OUSD can learn more science because in my opinion I like/love science more than any other subject in school. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I think that they can help by helping me everything I need to know for my next year at middle school and high school and college I think they can prepair me for the rest of my school career. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I think that they can improve the white water fountain and get the balls that are on the roof. I think that they should give the upper grade a longer recess. Other than that its a good school. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I think that they need to prepare us by using college tech and acting like college teachers so we get used to it. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I think they can help by giving more individual help. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I think they need a choice system, kinda like el rancho, I don't like that you have to stay longer to do other things, I also think we need a computer programming class that teaches JavaScript or something. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I think to help improve myself, I would like more complexity in subjects such as science and math. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I think we can improve on college and career ways by learning more economics. Anaheim Hills Elementary • I'd like the OUSD to improve my educational experience by having a career day. That way we can see what we want to be, and it'll help us set long term goals. Anaheim Hills Elementary • im good anyway Anaheim Hills Elementary • I'm not sure in what ways they can improve. Anaheim Hills Elementary • Improve my writing Anaheim Hills Elementary • In my opinion my grades give me a lots of pressure and when they go down I start to stress a lot and can sometimes get emotional. Anaheim Hills Elementary • In my opinion, there's nothing OUSD needs to improve. They provide support, programs, and other things. Anaheim Hills Elementary • Instead of each grade basically being a repeat of the next learn a new set of things each grade because I did NOT learn very much at this school in a few years. Anaheim Hills Elementary • It can improve by giving us more chances to do more creative things and more team work activities.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Anaheim Hills Elementary • I've been in the Orange Unified School District since 3rd grade and have been happy with my experience. As far as I could think, I have no complaints and don't need any improvement. Anaheim Hills Elementary • l think I get multiple chances to learn many things that will help me get ii to college and ready for a career. Anaheim Hills Elementary • longer resses and time bettwene bels to go to the bathrooms. Anaheim Hills Elementary • Make math easier, and help us understand more mentally and visually. Anaheim Hills Elementary • Maybe add online programs for other subjects. There is one for math which is Khan Academy. Anaheim Hills Elementary • Maybe by doing subjects longer to get better at it Anaheim Hills Elementary • Maybe if students are absent, instead of having a delayed due date, students can find time to do work online, that way they don't miss anything educational. Anaheim Hills Elementary • Maybe it can improve by doing more technology work. Like if a student is not at school then they can do work at home. I think technology can help student a lot if they isn't here. Anaheim Hills Elementary • Maybe we could give out more challenges or extra credit activities that an help us find what we want to do when we grow up and activities that can help us get into good colleges. Anaheim Hills Elementary • Not much. The district can provide more activities. Anaheim Hills Elementary • Not so much homework, I get that a lot of children say that but we have a unreasonable amount. I stress over everything I have and so when I rush I don't try my best. We have an overwhelming amount of math and language arts packet. Also I feel we should be able to sit where we want during lunch. Anaheim Hills Elementary • Nothing, it's fine the way it is. Anaheim Hills Elementary • One way I think the OUSD can improve is to allow students to be able to sit wherever they want at lunch. I know we don't want anyone sitting alone, but some people just sit down and they look sad because they have a bad lunch table. Anaheim Hills Elementary • One way OUSD can improve my educational experience is by making lessons more fun but still with the same amount of learning so kids can be more interested and excited in learning. Anaheim Hills Elementary • Other ways OUSD can improve my educational experience that will help me be college and career ready is by talking to us students one by one asking what do we need to improve on and what are your future goals. They can also have some more activities that we can engage in with other people. Anaheim Hills Elementary • OUSD can do other things that's not after school they can do things at school and i would love if they do more activity's. Anaheim Hills Elementary • Ousd can help me be collage ready by learning different ways to study,putin effort and many more. Anaheim Hills Elementary • OUSD can improve my educational experience by explaining things more and helping more if a student needs help when they need it Anaheim Hills Elementary • OUSD can improve my educational experience by not using devices so much. Anaheim Hills Elementary • OUSD can maybe involve more athletics into after school programs and hey can also be more serious about performances and plays since some people want to be actors/actresses.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Anaheim Hills Elementary • OUSD could add after school tutors that can help students who struggle to learn. Also, because if a person or student is falling behind, parents will be able to sign their child up for after-school tutoring. Anaheim Hills Elementary • OUSD I think is fine the way it is and we don't need any changes. Anaheim Hills Elementary • some ways OUSD can improve our educational experiences that will help me in college is they should make a program that reases money for college students. Anaheim Hills Elementary • Some ways OUSD, can help me is to give more of a direct based learning, or to have a more focused learning, also I think that you should allow music in class, as it allows most students to focus on assignments. Anaheim Hills Elementary • stop assigning computer homework. Not everyone has a working computer at home. Math, math is to hard we should be allowed to use calculators to help get answers but we cant because it is counted cheating if you don't show your work and you kill to many trees using all that graph paper. Anaheim Hills Elementary • The OUSD can improve my education more by explaining things better and having teachers get more involved by helping the students instead of telling them what to do. Maybe have teachers talk to the students more and engage more with them. Anaheim Hills Elementary • the school can get more advanced homework and worksheets to help with certain college and career ready Anaheim Hills Elementary • The school can give us more school time by taking some play time away and at the end of 6th grade or before that we can start learning middle school math and stuff like that. Anaheim Hills Elementary • The school does do art and steam challenges but not a ton I personally wish that we would be able to do more art and steam throughout the year. Anaheim Hills Elementary • There perfect don't need to get better Anaheim Hills Elementary • They can help us by making the schools clean and safe. They can also add some more teachers to help with more kids. They could make more classrooms. Anaheim Hills Elementary • They can hep me learn more things about the animal kingdom since I am wanting to get a career where I am a scientist. Anaheim Hills Elementary • they can improve by teaching us how to be social. Anaheim Hills Elementary • They could do more outside activities or P.E. other than just Friday. Anaheim Hills Elementary • Things OUSD can improve my education is they for each other should work together as a class and we should get all the help we need. Also we should get more time to work together. Anaheim Hills Elementary • Things that could be provided are maybe a few drills popped by without being warned because in real life, who knows when there will be a fire. So I would like not to know about when drills will happen. Anaheim Hills Elementary • To always keep helping me whenever I need it, and to always encourage me to try my hardest and never give up. Anaheim Hills Elementary • We can have more projects to do as a group. Anaheim Hills Elementary • We should be able to sit where ever we want at lunch and we should stop doing AVID. Anaheim Hills Elementary • working on group projects more, having reading buddy's do more math

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Canyon Rim Elementary • Another way is that Orange Unified School District can improve my educational experience is by getting me to participate in more in school or after school activities. I would do this because I think I do not get involved in many school related activities. Canyon Rim Elementary • By having good friends who support me and teachers who encourage me to get better grades and support me in going to school Canyon Rim Elementary • By teaching me math and art so i can become a animator for my college career Canyon Rim Elementary • First of all, the people need to be more strict. another thing is that their is too much homework for a 5th grader. Canyon Rim Elementary • fun learning Canyon Rim Elementary • get a better teacher, have the grass be better and have it not be a little long. Canyon Rim Elementary • Give a little for that just missing a recces, and make them write a essay about how they behave here Canyon Rim Elementary • good school Canyon Rim Elementary • have science projects every once an awhile. Canyon Rim Elementary • help me if suck on homework but not to much for them to give it away Canyon Rim Elementary • I am a very creative student and want there to be more creative, craft, or art project opportunities. Canyon Rim Elementary • I believe that this school has done so much for us to learn and that this school has possibly enough to get us ready for college or get us ready for a career path. Canyon Rim Elementary • I dont know i think ousd is great!! Canyon Rim Elementary • I don't know. I think the school is fine. I get a good education from this school. Canyon Rim Elementary • I don't need to say anything. Thank you Canyon Rim Elementary • I feel I need to be more social because whenever we do power speaking, I always either feel extremely uncomfortable in front of the class or just pass on the microphone. Canyon Rim Elementary • I have been involved in the district for a few years now. I started with measure S and spoke 6 times to get better high school buildings. I did this because at some of the schools I felt very unsafe. I realized our schools aren't that safe.Good job fixing the high scools but there is sill more to do Canyon Rim Elementary • I say teachers should have some study groups to help others study. Thank you for letting me type this Canyon Rim Elementary • I think maybe Ousd coud have more balls for sports so we can play the sport we want that is approprite for school Canyon Rim Elementary • I think maybe that teachers should teach us things that adults have to do. Canyon Rim Elementary • I think OUSD can improve my educational experience by giving new things that some kids would like to do.They could make more opportunities to help with college. Canyon Rim Elementary • I Think some help emotional support would help a lot of kids at my school. There is a lot of Drama and bad thing being said at Canyon rim and it hurts that I don't feel my safest when coming to class. And maybe a better homework system. Canyon Rim Elementary • I think that everything is good here at Canyon Rim Elementary. Canyon Rim Elementary • i think that i would like to get help with my grades because i want to have good grades.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Canyon Rim Elementary • I think that maybe the school could have better ways of dealing with bullying and looking at inapropriate things on websites. Canyon Rim Elementary • I think that OUSD could improve my educational experience by not giving my family papers to come to school if I am very ill and don't give me any papers to attend Saturday school as, I will never attend as long I as I am a student. Canyon Rim Elementary • I think that the new playground is not that safe for kids because they could fall though the gaps Canyon Rim Elementary • I think that the school is great and nothing needs to change. Canyon Rim Elementary • I think that the way teachers teach is good. I like doing khan academy more than how I learned math in the past years. I don't know what else to say. 😎😎😎😎 Canyon Rim Elementary • I think that they should put more money into the quality of the school on the inside instead of the outside. Like they baught an electronic bilboard but they could of got air condetioning for all the class rooms or new Chrome Books. Canyon Rim Elementary • I think that we just need to study and if we need help on something, we can just ask a staff/teacher to help us on whatever we need help with. Canyon Rim Elementary • I think there should be no reading counts. And i also think we should see what middle school would look like before we go. Canyon Rim Elementary • I think they are doing a really good job, and I don't really have anything else to say. Canyon Rim Elementary • I wish Canyon Rim has more activities to do after school such as magic, dance, art, craft, creative writing, and social study when I was in korea they had a lots of after school activities and I've doing since first grade. Canyon Rim Elementary • If i am not doing well in something they can pull me from class to help me out Canyon Rim Elementary • if they maybe listen to the kids and also sometimes the band teacher can get well just over react A LOT so I think that could maybe change and also maybe we could get a venting machine for when you forgot your lunch or did not eat breakfast. Canyon Rim Elementary • in tech i would say that there are too many restrictions i would say that there is this kind of program that is called grammerly that i use on my phone ipad and laptop when ever i am sending and email text or writing a review .this app can help us improve our grammer skills thank you louna Canyon Rim Elementary • Its good how it is. Canyon Rim Elementary • let us work with partners a little bit more instead of ourselves. Canyon Rim Elementary • Maybe more activities that will help us learn more. Thats really it Canyon Rim Elementary • maybe more art would help at the school and more of each subject Canyon Rim Elementary • more pushemnt and listening to students Canyon Rim Elementary • My teacher won't let us go to PE Canyon Rim Elementary • new restrooms Canyon Rim Elementary • nothing Canyon Rim Elementary • One way that I think will help me improve my educational experience at Canyon Rim is at the begging of the year is if you get 10 homework free passes. I think this will help me because at the begging of the year, I am not fresh, and I need some time to get into the feel of school!

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Canyon Rim Elementary • Other ways OUSD can improve my educational experience is that they should make other schools more connected with other schools and do a lot more events together. Canyon Rim Elementary • Others ways to improve our educational experience is to let us have a little bit more sleep so our test scores can go up. Also give us more recess time for kids to commuicate with others. Canyon Rim Elementary • our teacher doesn't let us have PE Canyon Rim Elementary • ousd can help my edication more by helping me stay focaused. Canyon Rim Elementary • ousd can improve better by putting more apps so that more people will go on ousd an go on those new apps Canyon Rim Elementary • ousd can improve by making sure we can have pe everyday for sixth grade and not make every kid sit out in all of upper grade because one kid did something and they can't find out who did it. Canyon Rim Elementary • OUSD can improve my educational experience by having an art room. Canyon Rim Elementary • Ousd can improve my educational experience by teaching more about science in our classes or by letting the students learn more about the history back then such as cavemen or egyptians. Also I would really like for our principal to be nicer because she benched the entire school recently . Canyon Rim Elementary • OUSD can improve my educational experience by telling somethings ahead of time. For example: this year we just met out new principal. I never knew this was going to happen at all until the last week of school. I had just got home and then we got a call from the school saying there was a new principa Canyon Rim Elementary • Ousd can improve my educational experience that will help me in later life by having me take more tests and doing MORE activities that I can get involved in such as adding another student representative. Such as school governor. Canyon Rim Elementary • OUSD can improve the limited learning more intense learning. Canyon Rim Elementary • OUSd can make us not run the mile or have only till 11:05 for Vapa and there should be Vapa substitute if the Vapa teacher isn't here so we can still have Vapa. and I would like for the school to have more recess maybe like 20 instead of 15 so I can have time to play and eat a snack. Canyon Rim Elementary • que podamos tener mas tiempo libre y tambien que podamos haser mas actividades a fuera [that we can have more free time and also that we can have more activities out] Canyon Rim Elementary • Some of my ideas that can help to improve my school is,making different types of classes in the morning that will teach us what we want to learn or just teach us what might you or the principal thinks that we would get a scholarship with.Or for P.E we should do go noodle or other active things. Canyon Rim Elementary • Some of the other ways OUSD can improve my education experience is to make the teachers have a class after school or something for the kids that are having trouble with the subject that their teaching or for the kids that just have a question on something. Canyon Rim Elementary • Some other ways I think that Canyon Rim can help us get ready for collage or a job is maybe have more after school activities. Most activities at our school are at times where I can't go because I have sports. Another way I think your school could help us is to have some more assemblies to tech us.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Canyon Rim Elementary • Some other ways OUSD can improve my educational experience that will help me be college and career ready is by handing out more long term assignments such as projects, presentations, and assiments. I would also appreciate if our principal would handle serious situations more differently. Canyon Rim Elementary • The other ways that OUSD can improve my educational experience that will help me in college and career ready are that we should write more paragraphs, and essays to prepare us for college essay. Some bigger words that are in our heads harder spelling words, to help us when we have to type emails. Canyon Rim Elementary • There is a very supportive environment when teachers are around but sometimes for some people they may feel that they're getting bullied or threatened. I also think some teachers should be more aware of what people are feeling because you never know if something is wrong. Canyon Rim Elementary • There is no need to improve. Canyon Rim Elementary • There is nothing that I would really want to change in the school I am in. It's probably the best school so far from preschool and kindergarten of than the net in the basket ball hoop when the ball always gets stuck. Canyon Rim Elementary • They can remove kids that misbeave and those who are rude to the teachers. Also, they can update the science book and let us use it. Lastly, the teachers can promote on bulling more than they have been. Canyon Rim Elementary • They can help by labling the apps better on myousd dashboard. Canyon Rim Elementary • They can improve bullying.If someone is being bulled they can have stronger actions to those people bulling and being bulled. Canyon Rim Elementary • They can improve by helping me more if I need help so I understand it mare later in life Canyon Rim Elementary • They can improve my educational experience by giving me more challenging worksheets to understand more and be more ready for the upcoming grades. Canyon Rim Elementary • They can improve my educational experience by making sure that everybody is safe and no one will be harmed at school at any time. And if some does get harmed make sure the kids know how to help . And if themselves are harmed they know what to do as well. Canyon Rim Elementary • They can make what we are learning a bit harder and give us an experience of what middle school, high school, college and our career would be like and how tough they would be on us if we did not follow the rules. This would improve the OUSD educational experience. Canyon Rim Elementary • They can take us to the STEAM lab more cause we only go there like 1 time a year. i also think we should be able to play more fun educational games rather than taking boring notes in a notebook. A lot of the time i don't even pay attention because of how boring it is. Canyon Rim Elementary • They will help us learn through elementary school through high school so we can get into a good college. Canyon Rim Elementary • This school is the best from all of my others schools I went to. I do think this school will take me to college or something more better and my back round to get a job will be good. Canyon Rim Elementary • To be fair with the kids supervisors. Canyon Rim Elementary • To improve my educational experience I would want to have school sport teams in soccer basketball and baseball.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Chapman Hills Elementary • Better cafeteria food Chapman Hills Elementary • I only have one thing to say about this school and its that I am getting the learning experience that I need and that I wish that we didn't have to switch classrooms everyday Chapman Hills Elementary • i only have one way that i think that can help us with education and safety. and that is when there is a fire drill that all the kids are together and not apart like 6th and TK are not on the one side that all grade levels are together. Chapman Hills Elementary • I think in other ways we can add more quishitons to the survey 😎😎😎😎😎😎 Chapman Hills Elementary • I think our school staff and teachers can help other students so we can trust our staff and teachers and so we can be more successful at school . Chapman Hills Elementary • I think OUSD can help me improve my educational experience is by giving me easier work until l i understand how to do it and give me harder work until i understand and keep in doing that Chapman Hills Elementary • I think that OUSD could improve my education by telling us what homework is and what isn't. Chapman Hills Elementary • I think that the principal should fix problems a little differently and that some rules should be changed because some rules are NOT the smartest. Chapman Hills Elementary • I think that we should have pe time and not cardio because we run alot and we aren't allowed to walk or when we get tired and we are constantly getting exhausted or like sports we can get involved in if we wanna do a sport and if we forget to get a note from our parents we run just give us option. Chapman Hills Elementary • I think they can add more learning programs or clubs. They can also use more funding and help with schools in our disrtict Chapman Hills Elementary • I would like to see more writing. I think we could do more of it. Chapman Hills Elementary • Maybe more P.E. time, and no Cardio because cardio makes us run a littlle too much and we can't walk until the whistle and it is exhausting for everyone. So I feel like we should get no cardio and a more P.E. time for everyone at the school so everyone is not so exhausted at cardio wednesday. Chapman Hills Elementary • One way to improve educational experience is if they did harder things in math. Chapman Hills Elementary • Other ways OUSD can improve my educational experience that will help me be college and career ready is by stop bullying at Chapman Hills while [staff member] is letting the bullies get by with the bullying. And [staff member] gets the person standing up to the bully in trouble. Chapman Hills Elementary • Other ways Ousd can improvise my experience is by just helping us in anyway possible. You need to help kids understand what there learning and not leave them behind. This helps the kids understand what there doing and learning. Chapman Hills Elementary • some other things that can help my school e better is to let us have some freedoms outside the class room and not get us in trouble for doing noting.the principle would get reid of all the bad rules like we have to bring a lunch and that we cant get up to throw away our trash until we get excused. Chapman Hills Elementary • Some other ways OUSD can improve my educational experience that will help me be college and career ready is if they give us certain questions that will prep us up into the next grade. Another way they can help is if they slowly but sturdily guide us to have more "brain power". Chapman Hills Elementary • Some other ways to improve my educational experience would be to...... maybe have a little bit more of vapa? So instead of 45 minutes maybe an hour?

(300 character limit) Chapman Hills Elementary • Some schools needs to do more about bigger issues, like people being racist or saying the n word, or cussing people out, also bullies, and people looking at other peoples private areas. And yes these things have happen, to either me or my friends and no one did anything. Something needs to change. Chapman Hills Elementary • Some ways that the school can improve my educational experience is by giving more examples in anything really. Another way they could help is by getting us more involved with things and have the kids get more encouraged and not embarrassed to tell something that they messed up or something. Chapman Hills Elementary • The school is great already. Teachers are great at their jobs. Chapman Hills Elementary • there is nothing i know that they should improve in this school.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Crescent Elementary • A few ways that OUSD can improve our educational experience is by doing more STEAM activities. Crescent Elementary • All of our schools share the same printer, we have to wait a long time after we send something to our teachers to print out and for it to be sent to the office and print out since all staff is using it. I think there should be printers each grade. I also believe that we should have cleaner fountains Crescent Elementary • By letting us have have longer lunches. Crescent Elementary • Crescent can help by not having rules that make no sense and state instructions clearly. Crescent Elementary • Educational access to technology should be more enhanced. Many times informational and appropriate sites are being blocked by the district. District workers should look more closely at which blocked sites provide useful information. Crescent Elementary • First of all, I’d like to say that the boy’s bathroom walls in Crescent are too short. People can easily peek over the wall. Trust me, I’ve seen people do it. I’d also like to say that the school should do maintenance during the weekend. Do they seriously have to do it during recess? Crescent Elementary • Get better technology at school or be able to buy apps. Crescent Elementary • I believe Crescent could help us more with giving us more time to work and more time to study for tests. Crescent Elementary • I believe one way of ousd improving us is fixing the water fountains, as the water feels unfiltered and discourages me to use it as I know certain people do certain things with them. It makes me not want to use the fountains at all, and I get thirsty a lot during school, so this is a problem to me. Crescent Elementary • I believe that something to make us college and career ready is to have more access to technology because we are limited to the apps provided on our iPads. I think a better choice would be letting the teachers download apps of their choice to support and make the subjects we are learning more fun. Crescent Elementary • I believe that the district should give money to renovate the bathrooms. Inside the school bathrooms, paint is peeling all over the walls. The locks are not secure because if you lock a door and try shaking the door it will open. Also on the lock handles there is some dirt or mold there. Crescent Elementary • I believe that the quality of the bathrooms (for both students and teachers) is poor and needs a change. It has graffiti and is some times a bit unsanitary with kids not flushing the toilets. I believe a repainting them and putting in new tiles will help. Crescent Elementary • I believe that we can use technology more in class and get more keyboards and new technology. Crescent Elementary • I believe they could make it better by having a field trip or event with another school to allow us to communicate and socialize with more people. they could also help by giving us healthier lunch choices that actually taste pleasant. Crescent Elementary • I think in this school we should have more projects and other activities that will help us in college and high school. This would really make us college and career ready.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Crescent Elementary • I think OUSD can improve a better experience for me to be college and career ready is by letting us use more apps that will help teach us better ways in all or a couple of subjects. There are some restrictions on either a website or specific app that may help us in understanding a subject better. Crescent Elementary • I think OUSD can improve my educational experience by encouraging students to participate in more activity, such as after school programs and during school programs. I also think that they are not entertaining kids as well, and so kids will get bored. For example we have fundraisers, but not enough. Crescent Elementary • I think that elementary school athletic teams should be added to all elementary schools. This is a way for kids to be more active and to get more exercise. It is also a friendly competition between elementary schools. Crescent Elementary • I think that they should put in a basketball team or something like that for an activitie. Crescent Elementary • I think that using more technology for lessons will help me and my classmates prepare for upcoming grades. Crescent Elementary • I think the teachers should be able to download apps. The hole next generation in involved with screens we need to learn about technology to keep up in this world, and today most jobs involve iPad, iPhones, laptops, computers, and chrome-books. That is what I thing they should teach us more about. Crescent Elementary • I think this school is perfect already. Crescent Elementary • I think we should’ve prove the bathroom by raising Money to get self flushing toilets ,paper towel dispenser, water dispensers, and soap dispensers to reduce a waste and make sure the toilets flush. We should also redo the stall or paint them because there is much graffiti on them from other people. Crescent Elementary • I would like better access to a printer for our classroom since our projects/activities most often include the need for a printer.

Many of my friends keep telling me that they don’t like it. I sort of agree, but maybe they are right. Could you please discuss this at your next meeting? Thank you!! Crescent Elementary • Nothing. Crescent Elementary • Other ways OUSD can help my later college or later careers in life are by making more school activities. I believe there is not enough school activities for everyone, which means a lack of exercise and learning. Crescent Elementary • Other ways ousd can improve educational experience is to add more after school programs, and let us use the steam lab more often. Also there can be more family picnics. Crescent Elementary • Other ways OUSD can improve my educational experience is that it could have more online opportunities. Crescent Elementary • Other ways this school can improve my educational experience are there should be more windows of time for kids to go too small group or a homework club where teachers help them understand concepts these kids are having trouble with. I feel that there is not enough time in each class. Crescent Elementary • Other ways to make our school better is to make sure the water is safe to drink so students can replenish their thirst during school. Note.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Crescent Elementary • OUSD can add tutors for people who need help with education. They could also make small groups of kids and they meet with each other at lunch and work on some things that need help on Crescent Elementary • OUSD can help improve my educational experience by making less over night field trips so that I can go on them with my classmates and have more outdoor experience instead of having to stay in school doing worksheets. Crescent Elementary • OUSD can improve my educational experience by upgrading our technology and apps, by allowing teachers to download apps, to get new keyboards so students can write much easier online, and more tech to learn and grow with. Crescent Elementary • OUSD can improve my educational experience sometimes with Educational field trips, the book fair, when people come to our school to talk about the environment, and, job day. Job day is when people from around my community come to my school to teach children about their job and about what they do. Crescent Elementary • OUSD can improve my educational experience that will help me be college and career ready by giving teachers the right pace to go at, especially for the subjects that students tend to struggle at. Crescent Elementary • OUSD can improve my educational experience that would help me be college and career ready by letting us get more access to different apps on the IPad. I think this because if we want to do a certain project and we need a certain app, we can’t do the project for we don’t have the app. Crescent Elementary • OUSD can improve my experience by allowing kids to go to the STEAM lab in crescent elementary more often,our classes only go when we need to and are not given separate time to cultivate our creativity. Each time we go to the lab I see materials that I would like to use for other projects but I can't Crescent Elementary • Ousd can improve our educational experience by redoing the bathrooms so we don’t haberdashery to be afraid of going to use the restroom.

Crescent Elementary • Some ways that OUSD could improve my educational experience that will help me be college and career ready is that teachers should be able to purchase apps for the students to help with future programs that they may encounter. Crescent Elementary • Some ways we can improve our school facilities are first fixing the water fountains because they seem unsanitary and the water is sink water. Kids who are thirsty after an activity don’t want to drink the water. If we upgrade them ,then we could have filtered water and kids will want to drink again. Crescent Elementary • Something that you can do to improve school is making sure that no homeless people can get into the school. You can also block more stuff on the I pads and computers because some people have figured out how to get onto YouTube at school during a class. I also recommend getting a mental counselor. Note.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Crescent Elementary • Someways you the can improve OUSD is to enforce rules more. I have seen people get away with bad things. Also, I wish we had a option to work in a team or not as a group in all projects. In addition, I hope staff members in the future with listen to what I have to say. Crescent is a good school!!!!! Crescent Elementary • Start school teams. Middle School’s and High School’s have sports such as soccer and basketball that the students can participate in. The students represent their school. Students can also get better at things like team building. I strongly believe that Crescent should have school teams. Crescent Elementary • The bathrooms are kind of unsanitary and people don’t flush. Crescent Elementary • The teachers should be able to download apps that we can use to get a better education. OUSD should also include more activities and games for students, so we can have fun and enjoy what we learn.

Crescent Elementary • They can prepare us more for high school / college / careers with classes on what it will be like so we have a better understanding. Crescent Elementary • They could challenge us and show us what middle school will be like. Crescent Elementary • To help OUSD I think teachers should get more attention and deserve more freedom. I as a student will like my family to participate with activities and fundraisers but they speak in another language. Students should be punished more because in the future major consequences will be held. Thank You Crescent Elementary • We could maybe have more art classes. Crescent Elementary • You can allow more sports and athletics to encourage students to do more sports. Crescent Elementary • You could help improve the educational experience by letting students have access to the iPad keyboards so they can type without worrying about touching other keys. Crescent Elementary • You guys can be better by buying chrome books instead of iPads because I enjoy using chrome books and a lot of other people enjoy them.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready?

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) La Veta Elementary • A few ways that can and will improve mine and may others experience would be, not turning off the AC on hot days. Another thing is more physical education, because it is not good to sit most of the week and, it will help students with mental strength and team leadership. La Veta Elementary • A way OUSD can improve my educational experience that'll help me be college and career ready is to make schoolwork or other projects more college level. This could be done by OUSD teachers to think outside the box as they tell use to do and make challenges not just harder but fun, as well. La Veta Elementary • Better school lunch La Veta Elementary • for disabled people can take plase in this school La Veta Elementary • get the lunch food better,has more actities. La Veta Elementary • give more opportunities to be tutored. and also to talk about careers. La Veta Elementary • give us real pizza and not plastic pizza and stop selling rubber mac and cheese it does not taste good La Veta Elementary • have a teacher in the grass because alot of times its 5 vs 2 and thats not fair or its 9 vs 4. the goals are not the same hight one is tall and on is wide and the goals can get a net. La Veta Elementary • Here are some improvement I feel are necessary. First I feel as if homework isn't given enough attention if I need help. I have to contact friends instead of a teacher which is very hard. I'd also recommend that parents that speak another language get more help with knowing their child's academics. La Veta Elementary • I am alright for now La Veta Elementary • I believe that OUSD can help improve my educational experience, is by providing more fun activities, that also help you learn. For example, educational videos of certain career subjects, like doctors aid. La Veta Elementary • i dont know.The bathrooms i guess.The laptops are fine but they lag a lot.And the math you give us is something i dont understand and teachers dont explain it well. La Veta Elementary • I don't think that i need anything else from my school but i really enjoy being at school. I like how much we practice on different things so ian get better. La Veta Elementary • I don't think that we really need anything else because i think my school is doing great in education. La Veta Elementary • i feeel like ousd is very good and does not need very much changes or any thing but they should take a little more thaught to kids that are not very well with behavior La Veta Elementary • I feel like that the papers that talk about the the program should explain a little bit more. La Veta Elementary • I think at this school has a lot of teaching. La Veta Elementary • I think maybe more programs or websites to go on for help to get better at things. La Veta Elementary • I think my educational experience has nothing to be improved on. La Veta Elementary • I think OUSD can improve by helping kids be more respectful to others and teacher. I also think they should learn a little bit of the next grade to get started for the next grade.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) La Veta Elementary • I think OUSD needs just a little bit of improvement but I think my school is really helping me get ready for my future. They teach me really good and the teacher's,PTA, and the office people do their best and they work very hard. Also the PTA work very hard. I just think my school has helped me alot La Veta Elementary • i think that are school should a different sports teams so the kids at are school can get more exercise. La Veta Elementary • I think that every class should have there own ipad or chromebook cart to do online purposes like lexia core 5, google slides, google docs, etc. These things will help our community be becoming better students and have a better use of technology. Also, I think that the schools will have education. La Veta Elementary • I think that I could improve my experience at La Veta Elementary school by having parents get even more involved then they already are, and add more enrichment opportunites in order to build up skills that I might need later in life. La Veta Elementary • I think that it would help more if we focus on more of creativity because more jobs would hire you for your creativity than what you learned in math but that's just my opinion. La Veta Elementary • I think that La Veta does not need anything to improve because the teachers hear are great and they help you be ready for the next grade that you are going into La Veta Elementary • I think that La Veta Elementary should have athletics programs like soccer, volleyball, basketball, etc for students to participate in throughout the year. I think these sports would give students a great chance to work with a team. Team captains would also build leadership skills. La Veta Elementary • I think that La Veta should serve a bit better foods or more food choices/bevereges, all and all this school is great. La Veta Elementary • I think that my school i great and gives us students a lot of recources to help us improve academically. La Veta Elementary • I think that my school is safe but I still see kids break rules. Now I said that rules are big at my school. But I think in recess when there's over 100 out at recess, 2 or 3 supervisors are not enough. Also some classes don't have enough technology. Also when it's hot, have the air on. La Veta Elementary • i think that my school need more club that involved everybody and our leaership cant just involved gate kids to do everything in the school because everything should involved everyone in leaership La Veta Elementary • I think that one way that they can improve the school is by turning the AC back on, They turned it off to save money around the hotter season and we would really appreciate it back. La Veta Elementary • I think that OUSD can improve my educational experience by having more enrichment/creative classes. We don't have a lot of school events, and none of them are really fun. I think that every month we should have an activity day, we could do relay races, jump-a-thons, maybe even community services. La Veta Elementary • I think that OUSD should teach us more about things on the computers. This would help because when I started going to this school, I did not know how to do a lot of the things that we did on computers.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) La Veta Elementary • I think that the teachers here are very mean. [The teacher] is mean and she always gives us extra homework and if they would be nice to us I would be less scarde to say the wrong awnser or put it down.They scream at us at i don't fell safe here with the teachers even they can't touch me. La Veta Elementary • I think that they can provide language classes earlier. La Veta Elementary • I think that they could improve our technology so then were already introduced into it. They could also pay teachers more so then we get a better education. Another thing they could do is improve our books. La Veta Elementary • I think that they should have a extra curricular on how to effectively write resumes and applies for schools. I think that will really help kids when they are trying to get into a top tier college later on in the future. It could also be used in class when writing essays. La Veta Elementary • I think that this school can improve education by letting us be free and work with partners to figure things out. The teachers should still take the time to help us and teach, but I think we need more time to think alone. Then the teachers can correct our mistakes so we know what we did wrong. La Veta Elementary • I think that we could have some experiment in scientist. La Veta Elementary • I think that we should have opportunities to do more activities in different subjects. I also think that we should have more accurate sources in our textbooks, because some information in the textbooks are not too accurate. La Veta Elementary • I would say making some subjects easier to understand,and maybe making this place a bit active,with more equitment but thats all and thats my opionion. La Veta Elementary • If they have better food during lunch . La Veta Elementary • improve the lunches La Veta Elementary • In my opinion I think that they can put in more room for kids to stay after school and get help so that they can do there homework at school and wont have to do it at home and will understand it when there is someone helping them on problems they need help on or someone that is there to hear them. La Veta Elementary • In my opinion, I personally think that this school is great. The teachers are great, the school is great but I may have an idea to improve this school a little bit. My idea was if there was more programs in school to do and more activities to do that will help us learn and that will also be fun. La Veta Elementary • in my opinnion i whish there were more safty and hidding grounds just in case and more super visers to see bulling because i now how it feels La Veta Elementary • In what I think in heart that the OUSD has some very good educational experience. La Veta Elementary • it can have more technoligy and more supervizor. La Veta Elementary • It can improve how the websites work and glitches on the ousd website. My opoinon about ousd school district it is going strong but the website needs more fetures. La Veta Elementary • it can improve my education by helping me with things i dont know/understand La Veta Elementary • It could improve by having more things to do with engineering art and math. La Veta Elementary • It is alredy perfict La Veta Elementary • It would help if younger kids can no scream in the hallway while a class is in the middle of learning a new consep that they don't understand because the can't hear their teacher over the scream.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) La Veta Elementary • la veta is very good educational school for all children but an other way they can to have more classes like more math. La Veta Elementary • make sure we have more block schedule La Veta Elementary • more after school classes more VAPA time for upper graders more teachers more saftey drills in case of emergance i feel like teachers should help students more in school and aswell as more staff members thank you for teaching me things i need to know. La Veta Elementary • More art and sience should be added because having creativity is important it also help get rid of deprshin and anxiety. I also feel like we need more social time because sometimes I feel shut out of the social world (not talking about electronics). La Veta Elementary • My school,La Veta,needs better food!You know why im asking to get better food:because I'm one of the hundreds of kids that orders their lunch and we don't get good enough food!They just put random food and say it's food!And on top of that we usually don't get to use the STEAM lab too.So improve it! La Veta Elementary • Nothing really because it already is good enough. La Veta Elementary • nothing. La Veta Elementary • One other way that OUSD can improve my educational experience that will help me be college and career ready is by how to act on the playground when a staff member is not watching us all the time. A lot of people take advantage of this and say foul words. La Veta Elementary • One way OUSD can improve is the bathrooms at my school. The bathrooms are disgusting, the soap dispenser does not work, and the paper towel dispenser does not work. I have seen cockroaches in there multiple times, and other bugs. The floors are disgusting, the walls are peeling, and it stinks, bad. La Veta Elementary • One way that OUSD can improve my educational experience is by having more equipment to use for physical exercise and recess. La Veta Elementary • One way that we can improve the school is by setting up recycling and food waste cans instead of just trash cans. This will help the environment and it will keep it cleaner. Also, I think that school rules should be more enforced, because they are reminded of, but they sometimes don't pay attention La Veta Elementary • Other ways OUSD can improve my education experience is by having an indoor cafeteria. When it rains we can't play or eat outside, then we don't socialize as much as we do on a non rainy day. But if we have an indoor cafeteria we can socialize a lot more. Kids will be more open on expressing themself La Veta Elementary • Other ways OUSD can improve my educational experience is if they make the school a bit more clean and less gross in the bathrooms. Some of the girls' bathrooms don't have locking doors and some paper dispensers don't EVER HAVE paper. Also, I think that there should be more art stuff besides VAPA. La Veta Elementary • Other ways that the OUSD can improve my educational experience is to have sound-cancelling headphones in each classroom. My classroom is talkative so this would help me drain out the noise. I also think that we should have a school clean out day, when we clean out our desks, and the school yard. La Veta Elementary • ousd can do after school classes to help you with homework,and have more,and that's all I have to say because this school already has a lot of things to help you with.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) La Veta Elementary • OUSD can fix my educational experience by fixing the bathrooms. When I need to go I hold it in because the bathrooms are gross and a lot of the times the toilet stalls have no lock. I think the food needs to be better. You need to remember you are feeding people and not animals. Bad Food. goodfood=$ La Veta Elementary • OUSD can improve my educational experience by providing more hands-on activities that keep us engaged and wanting to learn. :) La Veta Elementary • OUSD can improve students educational experience by providing help on a daily basis. Sometimes I see students too scared to ask a teacher for help, because they are afraid they will get disciplined for not understanding. Reassurance from teachers would help students do well. La Veta Elementary • Ousd can make learning all online for upper grade students to learn how to use computers for jobs that need them. Ousd can also have general ed people in the classroom and if something happens or a student is struggling, they can help them. Ousd is great at helping kids learn. La Veta Elementary • OUSD could teach more history, and they should give tests when we are doing PE to see if we are doing PE right. La Veta Elementary • OUSD could teach things other than the basic school subjects to prepare students for future careers. If students could learn about things other than math, science, social studies, and language arts, it would help a lot. La Veta Elementary • OUSD, you could try and give us different methods in solving problems, such as math or science. The teachers can give us the method OUSD uses, but also give other ways to solve the same problem. That way, we can use the method we want, and use the one that bests fits us for the topic or subject. La Veta Elementary • school lunch La Veta Elementary • school would be alot better if there would be more teachers and less kids in one class. There also needs pe activities with the class and more VAPA time. La Veta Elementary • so I think that we can learn more by listing to extructions and less time at school and longer after school program and more science and more projects and longer recces and lunch. La Veta Elementary • Some other ways OUSD can improve our educational experience that will help us be college and career ready is to make sure no one say any bad words or talk about bad things because I have seen and heard many kids cuss in the playground or even in classroom speaking an other language like spanish. La Veta Elementary • Some other ways that OUSD improve my educational experience that will help me be ready for college and a career is that they can add more programs that are challenging but also very fun. For example, something like S.T.E.M. is a good and fun program. La Veta Elementary • Some things I guess is teaching about how students can have a good life and how to be prepared to go to the next school. La Veta Elementary • Some ways OUSD can improve my educational experience that will help me be college and career ready is that the school could make us do more quizzes that prepare us for tests that are upcoming. Like a survey to get us ready for something. The school could also have more teachers outside for bullies. La Veta Elementary • Some ways that OUSD can improve my educational experience that will help me be college and career ready are that they can make us take and write more things. In science, because the curriculum changed, we don't take as many notes. It is hard to keep up and most of the things are written for you. Note. Comments are transcribed as they were received. 53

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) La Veta Elementary • something that won't really improve my learning is seat covers in restroom. maybe having rotation classes so if lets say we don't know how to do the math we can get help. that is all i have to say. Thank You!! La Veta Elementary • Sometimes it can get really, really hot inside the classrooms and outside, but the A.C. is still turned off. La Veta Elementary • Teach us new methods of things and start teaching us about the real world and what is to come later on in life. La Veta Elementary • The bathrooms are broken. The teachers dont pay attention to anything you have to say. Everyone here needs to get fired. La Veta Elementary • The bathrooms here are nasty. They are so gross and not all of the stalls lock. Kids are constantly just hanging out in the bathrooms, sometimes eating their snack/lunch. Rules on the playground should be enforced more. For example, it is annoying when kids cuss or lose the playground balls. La Veta Elementary • the school is fine it gives me enough oportunities to get good grades. I think the bathrooms need way more cleaning. Its kind of gross, there are unknown liquids on the ground and i dont want to know what they are. Some kids at the school are nice others are mean. thats my opinion on teh schooooool. La Veta Elementary • The school is great but I think that there should be more VAPA, because I am going to do a musical and I would like lots of time to practice not just 2 days. I also agree there are lots of after school programs. At our school the fence in the front of the school can be jumped by a kid or teacher. La Veta Elementary • the schools can improve if they all have counselling la veta does but not all of the schools have it La Veta Elementary • The teacher help with things we don't get like in math or spelling. Some teachers can be helpful so can not be helpful. Sometime you can feel safe some times you don't. But there are many different things to do at school like play,learn,and have fun.Many people like school, some don't School is fun. La Veta Elementary • the teachers can help us with anything we dont get. And wont get mad about our time and also if we could do more activities La Veta Elementary • There are a couple different ways that OUSD can improve my educational experience to be college and career ready. One way, is that they could have people to help me and my classmates if we are having a hard time with our grades. La Veta Elementary • There are a few ways La Veta can improve. First of all, stop turning off the AC. There are countless studies that say it hinders our learning. Repair the school, the bathrooms are falling apart. Improve school lunch, there is 0 nutrition in those, hindering my learning. Also add more enrichment. La Veta Elementary • There is no other way that OUSD can improve my learning expeirence exept for helping me with spelling. Tech is perfurred to help. La Veta Elementary • They can help me with my math skills.They can help me with History and encourge me to learn. La Veta Elementary • They can improve by making more time for vapa. La Veta Elementary • they can make sure we all get the same opertunitys and that we all feel not judged by others if we dont understand something La Veta Elementary • they could add more programs to the system.

(300 character limit) La Veta Elementary • they could improve everybody's education by teaching things more are grade level and give more homework La Veta Elementary • They would help me with my reading, math, and writing whenever i need it to pass my levels/grades at school. La Veta Elementary • things that will help me with me education and career are giving me more time on computer asinements and giving harder writing asinments and give me collage corses La Veta Elementary • thinking that can help us are books sicenest math. La Veta Elementary • To be ready for college i think there should be a math program La Veta Elementary • To help us more in something that is complicated as in homework,classwork,or a project.We need to be able to have contact with the computers so we can research more.If the teacher is busy we should be able to go on the computer to research what we think is complicated for us to get the help we need. La Veta Elementary • To improve my educational experience in OUSD I would like more extra- curriculum that relates to computers like coding so that people can learn more about computer science for a better future. La Veta Elementary • To Improve the educational system at La Veta Elementary, I would say have more engaging, fun, and interesting learning experiences. this would help students better engage with the material and overall have a better time at the school, spicing up the learning experience. La Veta Elementary • To listen to what other people say La Veta Elementary • Ways that OUSD can improve on is, turn on the air conditioning after lunch. La Veta Elementary • we can have better school lunches La Veta Elementary • we need more teachers more classes and lost more books to help us learn and more recess and to teach kids maners . La Veta Elementary • well i think that for recess that we dont get enough time to do anything but eat.I also think that they should really teach younger kids how to be clean and teach them manners like they do in daycare.I thank manners are VERY important in your life and a please or a thank you does not hurt.Thank you! La Veta Elementary • well in my opinin i think that la veta has every thing i can think of exspest a sports team. La Veta Elementary • When I look at all of the things going on around the school, La Veta, I can see room for improvement. There are always those group of kids who are no following the rules and are just doing things that I don't like. The air conditioning in the building is broke and should be fixed immediately! Thanks La Veta Elementary • When school is over,we can have classes to help us what we are struggling at during class.Have more classes when we are at school.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Linda Vista Elementary • by adding more time to P.E because I don't really get a lot of stretching and the pat week my back has been hurting a lot that I couldn't carry a thing for a day.It still hurts really bad , but i can keep up with my class i hope to add more time for P.E so we can get more stretching. Linda Vista Elementary • Engieneering programs and more after school things 3D printing . designing things on a pc / desktop school gams on a feild game day lv olimpics computer coding Linda Vista Elementary • Estudiar el ingles para aprender mas y entender a las personas que me estan ablando entender el ingles y espanol par consegir mi carrera que siempre deseaba tener [Study English to learn more and understand the people who are speaking to me understand English and Spanish to get my career that I always wanted to have] Linda Vista Elementary • Football, 3D printing and more cool after school stuff like that. I have always been into computer coding, and also other computer stuff like that. Linda Vista Elementary • have more recess time in the morning. need improvement in the bathrooms and add water fountains where we can fill our water. add more stuff to the upper grade play ground. have steam projects. let us use phones in recess time . NEED BIGGER DESK WITH LAPTOPS have lockers and add a secound story Linda Vista Elementary • I am learning alot in school one thing i struggle in is language arts. That is all i struggle in. Linda Vista Elementary • i have problems with math and sometimes i get really confused with math and i think i need help with math more often and need some help with my writing grade. Linda Vista Elementary • I like the way my school (Linda Vista Elementary) functions. Homework is good, playgrounds are fine. Linda Vista Elementary • I think it's really good. But, I think it can improve by being a little more strict on some kids because some kids get really mean/annoying. Most of them don't get in trouble because I don't tell on people, unless they did something really bad. Some kids do what they want, without caring. Linda Vista Elementary • I think OUSD can help by encourging kids to help animals by donating money Linda Vista Elementary • I think that it is important to get ready for middle school early so I think it would help if they moved classes around more. Linda Vista Elementary • I think that Linda Vista is a great school already, therefore I have no comment. Linda Vista Elementary • I think that maybe have the smart people to do a little harder work and the people who have trouble or don't listen learn the lesson again in a website Linda Vista Elementary • I think that OUSD can help me improve my educational experience by listening to what students have to say. If someone is dealing with bullying or other issues the staff should get a chance to talk to the kids and find out what is going on in their home life. They should also let the students talk. Linda Vista Elementary • I think that ousd can help me more by putting all of are textbookx online instead of of just are math, small language arts , and big language arts books.This will help me because if i forget any of my textbooks then i can go online and see what i need to do for homework that night or whenever. Linda Vista Elementary • I think that ousd can provide more athletics because I really want to be good in sports when I am in college.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Linda Vista Elementary • I think that some ways that ousd can help improve my educational experience by listening to what students have to say. The teachers are always assuming things but they don't let the student actually tell the truth.I had a sub once and she thought I was on my watch but I was checking the time. Linda Vista Elementary • I think that the upper grade needs a bigger playground. We also need to encourage more sports related activities. Linda Vista Elementary • I think the playground could use some more things to it. Linda Vista Elementary • I think the uper grader should have a biger playgraund because then we do not have to shar the plagroun and only have it at luch. To conclud this the upper gradersw need abiger play gound! Linda Vista Elementary • I think this school gives us enough stuff to learn with. As long as I can learn then everything is perfect. Linda Vista Elementary • I think we need our own ipad or computer from the ousd.We need more inpovement in the bathrooms.More pe time and lunch.Let us use and bring phone in class.And bigger desk.Thanks what we need Linda Vista Elementary • I think we should be able to sit with whoever we want to help with our comunication and engourge kids to talk to people they are ok with talking to . Linda Vista Elementary • I think you should be able to use your phones more. Linda Vista Elementary • I want to be a mechanical engineer. Linda Vista Elementary • I wish they could supply more out door equipment Linda Vista Elementary • I would kind of want a little less homework because now I have like 10 pieces of homework like every week so please i would like that In 5th grade Linda Vista Elementary • I would like to have a longer P.E. and have more steam projects. Linda Vista Elementary • It is a very good school and i always have a lot of fun.Just a little less strict on the dress code please that would be great.And there is only one for girls not boys Linda Vista Elementary • It teaches us a lot about stuff that we will need in the long run Linda Vista Elementary • It would help if we could exert energy more regularly so we are not as hyper and energetic in class. This would include daily stretching and other physical activities. Linda Vista Elementary • Lots of us play lots of sports and dream of becoming professianal athletes. I take part in 5 sports out of school and i look to improve at each one where ever i am. In my opinion i think there should be more pe. If we had more PE we could become faster stronger and better athletes in genral.-Austin Linda Vista Elementary • maby they can make the big graders play ground biger and make the litsons easer. Linda Vista Elementary • My school does not have any behavior counselors nor officials who properly deal with how we feel other than our principal. Linda Vista Elementary • My school needs to have better lunch food. This is necessary because if we don't have good food then we most likely won't pay attention in class. And lunch food needs to be able to be eaten by children with braces(it's too hard). I feel that there needs to be more projects other than writing. Linda Vista Elementary • Newer 6th grade Social Studies textbooks. Linda Vista Elementary • No ways that I can think of Linda Vista Elementary • nothing because i think everything is ok already.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Linda Vista Elementary • One way OUSD can improve my educational experience is for teachers to listen what students say.In second grade,my friend was hurt and I told a teacher on duty,but they said I'm a tattle tail. Linda Vista Elementary • Other ways ousd can improve my educational experience that will help me be college and career-ready is to have more Avid checks, more word problems, more information about events, and to have more papers giving out in class. Linda Vista Elementary • OUSD can help me by making sure that it is safe for use. they can also help me if i need help in something i can ask one of the adults with out feeling weird. Linda Vista Elementary • OUSD can help me learn better by adding more activities and learning experiences. They can also help by making more educational lessons on safety and more classes that reach out to different areas of learning like new languages. Linda Vista Elementary • OUSD can improve my education by making me learn about subjects i am interested in. It can also increase my skill in learning and my social skills. Linda Vista Elementary • OUSD can improve our education by explaining better and help people with issues like English or other important things. It can help us be independent and take care of our parents. Also, it makes us smarter and make better life decisions in the future. Linda Vista Elementary • Something i say they can do is check the history of a new student before they come to this school. They should also give us more freedom with our choices. Like for projects they can choose if they want to do an essay,google slide, or even an avid one pager. Linda Vista Elementary • The school can buy extra pens for the teachers so that way if the teacher s pen runs out the teacher will have extra pens.The school can also add a recomended section in the libary so we can get good books. Linda Vista Elementary • the school needs to have less bullies, so we can be all friends,together Linda Vista Elementary • They can't really do anything more than they already are, they are helping me improve my knowledge. Linda Vista Elementary • they will help in my math and teach me how to be a good student and i will not be rude well try not to be rude Linda Vista Elementary • to give chalinging stuff but not to hard . Linda Vista Elementary • to have more clubs and more time for teachers to explain stuff to us Linda Vista Elementary • We don't have a behavior counselor, nor do we have anyone who will volunteer to help provide the support kid's behavior. Linda Vista Elementary • We have enough computers so that everyone doesn't have to share and fight over them. We also have enough money to do VAPA and P.E. Linda Vista Elementary • we need more imporvement om the bathrooms Linda Vista Elementary • well I love the way they treat me and how they help me through school Linda Vista Elementary • When I get older in the future, I'll promise to work hard for what I want. For today I'll try to listen to my teachers without causing any problems. At home I study really hard to improve my grades at school. If I don't do work at home, I could fail my grades.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • 35 min recess and coding in class time McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • As a (female) student, I get very limited chances to go to the bathroom throughout the day, thus forcing me to use the playground bathrooms. No chance to eat. There's never soap, paper towels, or toilet paper, and it is constantly dirty and messy. We get 4 tickets a trimester, which isn't enough. McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • As a student attending this school, I am very concerned about how I have to lug my materials around to my classes, my family chipped in to buy a very expensive backpack, that I don't even use. My materials that my mother paid for are now banged up, and almost ruined, because I drop them constantly. McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • Better Teacher, more pizza and McDonalds and free ice cream McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • by doing easier work to understand. McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • By making more periods for 5th grade McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • Can we have tutoring class on math, science, social studies, writing essays, and computer classes before collage? Or can K or lower have a advance learning? McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • Can you please help with the bathroom problem? The girls bathroom smells HORRIBLE! We all complain about how bad it smells and we have to go all the way on the other side of the school just to use the bathroom! We would also like longer lunches and recesses please. The lunch time is so short! :( McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • Can you please make the bathroom smell better?Can you please give us more recess time? Just because we are older, doesn't mean we don't like playing with our friends!:(We also would like more lunch time to eat)We could never finish our lunch in time.We want less Homework as well.We have no family... McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • can you please put more drawing classes? McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • every thing is good McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • get higher quality computers and a special homework help organization or get different kinds of fundraisers. McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • I am fine McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • i do not know what i want to be yet McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • I don't have any suggestions. McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • i love school resbosbls McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • I really like how this school is improving every year to make it more fun, but the bathrooms are always is a disaster! I also really enjoy if we could do more sports for K-5th. Like for example i really been wanted to do soccer playing here after school. And the rotations were a good idea. McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • I think I have a good time at mcp school with all my friends and hanging out at recess I appreciate all the good times I have had at mcp school McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • I think if the school had better smelling bathrooms it would help because they encourage me to go in my free time but its kind of hard when it stinks in their. I also am against uniforms I think kids should be able to express themselves and not be like everyone else. Also please add an anime day! McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • I think our bathrooms really need to be cleaned they stink and we kids would really enjoy the fountains to work better free dress should be allowed to express our self we need to have life lessons and life skills as a part of our learning when we want to learn it should have a be fun mac book also.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • I think our school should have better smelling girls bathroom. They should look nice and smell nice. I also think we should carry our backpacks when we are rotating to other classroom. We should also have time to learn about the job that we want to do in the future. McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • I think schools should add a art place for kids that feel calmer ex they are teaching math they would have some art in math and the other subjects.It would help me because I feel a bit calmer and I feel like I want to learn also its fun for me and some other kids Plus it helps me tell my feelings McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • I think that it is a good school itself. Another thing I want them to do is to let us experience stuff that high schools do when your in middle school. I also want it to let us do more things are self. That is the things that I want to improve are education. McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • I think that McPherson should have less smelly and putrid bathrooms. When we use the bathroom, we come back to class complaining to our classmates, and we can't learn. The bathroom smells like a gas station's bathroom, and students practically hate the smell. McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • I think that the school is good except for the fact that we don't have any P.E. teacher for first to fifth grade like how we had dodge ball every afternoon when we were in fourth grade, but now we have no P.E. coach for first to fifth grade. McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • I think that they can help by giving more programs about all the careers there are and they helping us on which college would be the best for the career we choose. Also maybe making it a lesson that teachers have to teach. McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • i think that we can improve OUSD to get you ready for collage and high school as soon as we can because like me i sometimes strugle in school and it can be hard agusting to new things. McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • I think that we should maybe get more time in stem because we only have about 30 minutes in stem and it would help if we got to have more time to learn. McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • I think that you could improve our school by teaching us like we're more young adults, rather than little kids. All of the programs here are awesome and the education value is fantastic but I don't feel like I'm about to go to High School. We also need to fund our education, not as much our campus. McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • I think the school has to be more about this book called (Nerd Camp). Nerd Camp is a book about a fun camp. you do math and poetry every day but you have fun while doing it. School doesn't have to be about Camping.I kind of want to have a Nerd School so we can have fun while learning and have fun. McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • I think the school is just fine. McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • I think they are just fine as it is. they do not need to change anything for the school McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • I think they should start talking about what college/career we want to do. I think they should be a little harder on the kids who are being bad and also courage kids to get good grades. McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • I think we need new bathrooms because I think having them NOT BE SMELLY WILL HELP MY LEARNING!I also think another thing is that we should be able to take are backpacks with us class to class. Another thing is we should make more rotations and combined with 3rd and 4th have less time more classes McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • I think we should have better bathrooms. They should smell better and look better. Note. Comments are transcribed as they were received. 64

McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • I would like more math time McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • I would really enjoy if the bathrooms were more clean because it is dirty and there are spiders all around me. I wish we could also do Vapa more often because it makes school a lot more fun and I get to try out an instrument because I didn't get to do it in any other grade but 5th grade. McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • If the bathrooms were cleaner and smelled better would make me want to go to school more. McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • If we had cleaner restroom it would make me want to go to school more. I think have rotation is better because it helps us get better for when we go to middle school we know how to do the rotation. I would like to have our backpacks when we are rotations. McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • If we had cleaner restrooms I would go at school.When we do rotation it is hard to carry your supplies and not forget any thing in the classrooms. As much time as we are in school I think we should have more then 15 min for recess. McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • it is good no uniform McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • less funds more lunch time and high tech computers. :) McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • longer times to play at resece, and longer time to eat lunch. This would let students come back to class with a better mindset, letting students get better grades and learning more in class, also this would spark creativity and confidence, which would help out the students in our school. McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • MAKE BATHROOMS BETTER free dress days every weak give us mace books to keep give us a pool better seats aka bean bag or medesin ball we need auto flush toilets because kids don't flush these days McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • make bathrooms smell better.get better toilet paper.MorEvapatimeat least a hour and ahalf. macbooks tokeepbetter seats aka bean bags. new lunch tables.no uniformless homeworkfrbrisinbathroom for students to useactual plugedkeyboards.AUTOfLUSHINGtolitesbecause kids dont flush BETTER COVERS FOR RAIN McPherson Magnet (K-5th) • Maybe teachers could explain what there saying to kids in a diffrent way the just one way because sometimes kids need to learn things in diffrent ways more than once.

The bathrooms smell like fish when I go in there. Another suggestion for my school is to have more challenges for me because I am almost done with their program called Jiji. When I am going to be done with Jiji (8th grade), what kind of math program can I do next?

(300 character limit) Nohl Canyon Elementary • A way that OUSD can improve on our educational experience is they could help us to know what type of problem we are doing so we know what problem we are doing. Nohl Canyon Elementary • Help with math, reading,and science. Have strict behavior rules for better students. Nohl Canyon Elementary • i am not sure it is a pretty good school Nohl Canyon Elementary • I belive that GATE kids deserve more time in class same with reagular ed because it is hard to get stuff done with only thirty minutes in each class for Gate. Nohl Canyon Elementary • I do not know because I think Nohl Canyon covers pretty much everything. So I don't really know what to say. Nohl Canyon Elementary • I feel like the district could try to have more educational programs.These help me with key skills i would need in life.Another way the district could help is by using more STEAM related subjects like engineering or art or science.I think this would help me and other students to be ready in college. Nohl Canyon Elementary • I hope somebody will listen to me. I think that my school could do more thing related to the adjective "fun". You could make a game out of math, get more class pets that we could perhaps study. Whatever you do, try to make activities more fun. Pro tip: Kids like fun things. Not boring things. Nohl Canyon Elementary • I really like our school, but if I had to change anything it would be to change the recess equipment. We have very little choices including not many handball balls, jump ropes, and basketballs. Although i don't really play with them it is good to have choices. thank you so much for listening!

My teacher is a very good teacher. This school is awesome! Nohl Canyon Elementary • In our 5th grade class we do a money system so when were older we understand how money works.

Prospect Elementary • other ways that ousd can help improve my educational experience is help with my math. Prospect Elementary • Other ways that OUSD can help is by helping kids that don't understand what the question is saying the people that are in charge or the teacher can give them little examples so the kids can understand the problem. Prospect Elementary • Other ways that OUSD can improve our educational experience is doing more fun things. Prospect Elementary • OUSD can help me more with math because I'm am not very good at it, and i fell ashamed to tell my teacher but that makes things worse because i then i end up not getting a good grade. i also would like to have a gym room so that could be part of your grade. Thank you! Prospect Elementary • ousd can improve by giving better lunch and make the lunch enough for everyone because its not fair that some people don't get the good lunch and tell [staff member] to give us more exercise because we don't ever do PE and we barely get to run one last thing is that they should take better care of us!!

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Prospect Elementary • ousd can improve my educaatinal experiance by adding more time in VAPA becouse kids in VAPA have almost no time to do any real progres it takes so much time to finish something in VAPA due to the short time period.

Prospect Elementary • OUSD does not need to improve anything it is just me who needs to do the improving I need to be the one who gets me to college. Prospect Elementary • OUSD does not need to improve anything! I think this school helps me learn very much. I do recommend one thing though, VAPA should be everyday. So we can learn more about the topic that we are learning or studying. I would love to see this school grow and have the opportunity to help other children. Prospect Elementary • OUSD is good and fantastic for my school and everything is there when i need it but there is one thing i wish our school had. and that would be afterschool P.E. because i just love doing P.E. because its so fun and i have a great time doing it. i hope i get to experience this. Prospect Elementary • OUSD is ready is good the way it is but OUSD is great. Prospect Elementary • prospect should add more things to do with technology. Prospect Elementary • Some other ways OUSD can improve my educational experience is to have more activities after or during school. Prospect Elementary • Some other wys to improve my education is to make app helpful for kids that are having trobel with seeing speaking and so they could do get good grades and to get really good education.

Prospect Elementary • The OUSD can improve my education by helping more and help student that needs to improve there grades like me and other kids that need it. Prospect Elementary • The OUSD can improve my educational experience by helping me go the other classes that i struggle with like math and science. Prospect Elementary • There are no other ways to improve the OUSD survey, every thing is just fine. Prospect Elementary • they can help me by do more science and can help me in history.

Prospect Elementary • They can improve in the school lunch. They should give us more options for the school lunch. Prospect Elementary • they can let us play more so we can be more athletic no more tutoring teachers who are not that strict ed giving better lunch please please please better cookers we don't have to wait long or get the bad and last lunch that is left and make my teacher give us p.e let us run three laps I MEAN IT!!!!

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Prospect Elementary • To improve the OUSD educational experience is actually being able to do our AVID jobs. I am currently elected as president but they said i would paint the posters, but obviously didn't draw any. Maybe the lunches could be less greasy. My friend also got hit in the head and the staff did nothing. >:( Prospect Elementary • Ways to make OUSD better so i can college is that they should have more learning apps so we can learn more and we should do it a week.They should make the food better as well i got mold on mine before.It was stall as well. That is what I need to help me gragerate college. they need better devens Prospect Elementary • When checked at prospect you can see than recycling bins are found outside the door hey should be found at near the drop/pick up your kids gate and there are no recycling bins not even in the restroom. There are also bullying at the school that's never seen and they talk about ANTI BULLYING MONTH. Prospect Elementary • You can improve my educational resorces by more VAPA time and also more safty drills and more fun events change the level of homework lower. Prospect Elementary • You could make our school have better lunch and not microwaved pizza or grilled cheese with fake cheese. They also only give us good lunch when parents are over. Also, we should have teachers that care because once a kid was crying and the teacher rolled her eyes when we tried to get her attention.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Running Springs Elementary • A other way OUSD could improve our educational experience is they could make library time two days a week instead of one day a week. Running Springs Elementary • a way for ousd to help me is to help me in math and help me raise my grades up. Running Springs Elementary • a way that ousd can improve learning methods to get ready for college and a future career is that they should start getting kids in elementary school to start learning junior high learning methods and they should always let your parents know about struggles. Running Springs Elementary • A way they can get us more college and career ready is to have us think more about what we want to do when we grow up for a career, or a subject we want to engage in deeper. Running Springs Elementary • Have some of the teacher not get mad so easily and for her to not teach like we"re 2nd graders. Running Springs Elementary • help us in writing technices Running Springs Elementary • I believe that students of all grade levels should have the ability to be in a class at the speed they learn so that there is no situation of a kid being stuck on a subject they are not good at. Running Springs Elementary • I don't think that I really need anything to change on how I am getting educated. I am learning really well right now : ) Running Springs Elementary • I don't think that OUSD can help me at all. They already are good at helping me :) Running Springs Elementary • I feel like our school is fun and helps me learn a lot. I love almost everything we do and all programs we get to be in. The only other thing is to not do the playground grade checkout. I want to play because it's my last year being at this school. Finally, it's my last time having a playground. Running Springs Elementary • I feel that they should teach us more things that we will do/have to do when we are adults. Running Springs Elementary • i have nothing Running Springs Elementary • I honestly think we need more time to do athletic activities. Running Springs Elementary • I like the way ousd teaching experience I just feel that maybe we should work together as a class more and not so much partners so we know how to do things in the future. But other than that I like the way the teachers teach. Running Springs Elementary • I think maybe they can help me more in math to get a better grade and do better. Running Springs Elementary • i think my school can have another subject or expeireance that takes place out of the class room. other than that love my school. Running Springs Elementary • I think someone could be better at enforcing rules around this school. I'm not saying no fun allowed, but sometimes its bad to watch all kinds of people do all kinds of stuff. Littering, Doing things when there not supposed to, being loud, and I feel like the teachers here have a lot to do, Running Springs Elementary • I think that in VAPA we could have a little longer and/or P.E. On Fri. we 5th graders could have different teachers for different classes. Lastly I think we could start later like 8:30. Running Springs Elementary • I think that Math can really help because you use math all the time in the world and in science that can help you alot to get your dream job and to get what you want in life.That can help you alot.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Running Springs Elementary • I think that maybe a personal tutor would or a meeting with my teachers after a lesson would be all I have to say. Running Springs Elementary • I think that maybe the way that ousd could improve is maybe adding more programs of some sort that might help kids get into better colleges or help them succeed in the career that they want Running Springs Elementary • I think that maybe there can be more clubs for educational subjects like math, science, history, reading, and language arts. Something like more optional classes if a student doesn't get a subject Running Springs Elementary • I think that my school can improve my educational experience by having more after school programs.This year they added spanish witch i think is really cool.They can also add other things such as STEM after school, not just in it. Running Springs Elementary • I think that our school is doing good so I personally don't have anything to add Running Springs Elementary • I think that OUSD can talk more about mental illness. Running Springs Elementary • I think that Running Springs is a great choice because there are a large number of activities outside of learning in a classroom. I think they could improve by giving more enrichment activities in the classroom. Running Springs Elementary • I Think that they could have more activities like football, baseball, or basketball for after school activities because they only have track and field, and high jump. Maybe others but not football, baseball, or basketball for sure. Running Springs Elementary • I think that they should add more programs that will interest kids more. Running Springs Elementary • I think that we need to do more buyod. Running Springs Elementary • I think they could teach a different language in case you get a job that needs you to speak a different language I know that some grades at our school do teach a different language but I think all grades (TK-6)should be able to learn a different language. Running Springs Elementary • I think, in my opinion, Running Springs can start using a little more technology and make us write more essays on computers(or other devices). Running Springs Elementary • I wish that the school understood my brother and did something to help him and did not ignore my parents when they tried to get emotional support from the school. The schools people that help with the support what he needs are very rude and disrespect my parents. They should be helpful, not mean. Running Springs Elementary • In my opinion, I would like a stronger athletics program also more chances for students to help in classrooms. Running Springs Elementary • In P.E. this year we don't do any streches and the P.E. teachers don't really supervise or communicate with the kids, it's basically just extra recess. Some kids also think they know it all and be mean. Running Springs Elementary • It can have more fun and educational online activities. Running Springs Elementary • It can let us go on our electronics more often so that we can do more typing, math, and reading things. We could also spend more time doing physical activities. Running Springs Elementary • it is amazing school i love it i have been here since kinder and my sisters have been here since tk . This school improves more and more , learning is fun here . I love this school so much . i don't think I have any problems . they have after school programs , it is so fun here .

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Running Springs Elementary • It will help me learn about subjects that i might need to know in college or if i get a job and i might need to know how to do things that i already studied in other grades so i will be able to know what to do with the other work and not fall behind in anything that might hold me back in my career . Running Springs Elementary • Maybe are school can get tutors to help people with their skills and also have some after school help, an example is instruments. Running Springs Elementary • Maybe pushing a little bit so that we can focus on our work and the subject we are currently on. Some kids might mess around, and then if they aren't paying attention, they won't do good on the homework and test. So this suggestion might be good for some kids. Running Springs Elementary • More boy teacher, because in my opinion i feel more confident with a boy teacher. Running Springs Elementary • More school events,activities,and fundraisers. And more play equipment like another volleyball court for volleyball and not prisoner and a actual volleyball.And more handball courts.And grown ups watching the court making sure people aren't changing the game. Running Springs Elementary • My school should give more opportunities to speak or be with other classes Running Springs Elementary • No need to change anything this school is great. I encourage to keep the good work. Running Springs Elementary • Not really anything I feel safe at school and I feel I have all the resourses to learn Running Springs Elementary • One way they can improve is by communicating with me and especially my parents because I feel that my parents are not getting enough information about the school and me, so I would like my parents to get better communication please. Thank you Running Springs Elementary • our school is fine in every way Running Springs Elementary • Ousd can encourage different ways of teaching or learning. This would help the students find their best method of retraining and memorizing information. It would help find their strengths in learning to help improve their weaknesses. Running Springs Elementary • OUSD can improve my educational experience by getting better books for the library. Running Springs Elementary • OUSD has helped alot i used to go to [another school] and when I came to this school I was so behind I came in Third grade january now I am in fifth grade but when I first came we were learning cursive and i didnt know how to do it I have caught up alot now thanks tanks to OUSD Running Springs Elementary • personlly i need help in writing and every thing that comes with it that is what ousd need to help me with and thikning of my own will thats what i need. Running Springs Elementary • probably in reading and science. Sometimes in social studies. But they are already great and i am doing good. Running Springs Elementary • Running Springs Elementary can provide more extracurricular activities to enhance my experience at this school. Running Springs Elementary • start doing things they do in middle school, even high school Running Springs Elementary • teach in some diffrent ways instead of it being the same all the time Running Springs Elementary • the school is already perfect and if i had to say any thing, i would say to maybe enforce more rules against bullying.

(300 character limit) Running Springs Elementary • The way we can improve better is by study more,work harder,volunteer,being quiet. Running Springs Elementary • They are doing great teaching and helping me stay on the right track there's nothing really to improve to help me get high grades. Running Springs Elementary • they can have more time to work and or study on the computers Running Springs Elementary • They can make the district more safe so people live peacefully in the enviorment when they grow up but other than that it is a beautiful place to live. Running Springs Elementary • They can make the textbooks simpler to understand and give us optional activities and work Running Springs Elementary • they can start by fixing the playground or start a new program something new Running Springs Elementary • they could maybe start an extra help program if they haven't already. or like maybe make a "smarter kid" program Running Springs Elementary • They enforce to many rules and the supervisors are mean and they dont understand are part of the story(Nelly) she is rude and she screams at us and doesn´t understand when we get in trouble if we werent trying to do something and she takes everything peronal. Running Springs Elementary • They have sports teams such as golf, basketball, soccer, etc. They should provide more help with studying or homework, etc. Thats all. wonderful school. Running Springs Elementary • This school helps me learn many subjects.And I’ve increased my math skills from last year so I think this school helps me increase my subjects. Running Springs Elementary • To improve ousd school i think they should do more athletic activities and more art activities and to make me feel more safe they should make better gates or fences and more practice drills. Running Springs Elementary • To make our school better I think we need to have it be cleaned up since there is trash around the school, the bathrooms are gross, and the paint looks bad. We have had a check out fro the play ground which and now I have nothing to do. But all in all I love this school and am glad I go here. Running Springs Elementary • We could have team sports at are school, have more math time, and more recess, lunch, and more pe, spelling and 100% more vapa Running Springs Elementary • You would practice other subjects and not just a few, kids need to experience all the different subjects to learn them before the school year is over.

(300 character limit) Serrano Elementary • Another thing you can improve is to block other websites because kids on are different websites all the time. Like youtube on of my friends told me that youtube was unblocked, kids started watching videos. Serrano Elementary • As a new student hear at serrano, I think it is a great school! Serrano Elementary • being better at math Serrano Elementary • By having new things at our school so we can learn better and have good grade to in college. Serrano Elementary • Doing projects that can help you interact with other people. Or doing more reading out loud to help with reading. Serrano Elementary • For all the techers to do A.V.I.D. Serrano Elementary • Give us all the tools need to be succsesful and thats all teachers can do to make sure you make a good living Serrano Elementary • Having more after school programs that kids can attend after school. Serrano Elementary • I am Good Serrano Elementary • I can get some help in some subjects Serrano Elementary • I can improve by talking to others about my needs. Serrano Elementary • I can improve in writing,math,science and reading mostle. Serrano Elementary • I do not think that much needs to be improved. Serrano Elementary • I don't think that OUSD could make my education better, Serrano Elementary is a well programed school system. Serrano Elementary • I don't think they need improving. To be honest I may not be the smartest but i do understand a lot of the thing's they teach us here. So I don't think they need improving other than kids behavior. Serrano Elementary • I feel like if i can reach the limits that i can do i feel like i'm a 5th grader Serrano Elementary • I feel like OUSD can improve on there grades and should out more grades in the school and not just kinder to 6 grade. Serrano Elementary • i like it if we could play flag football Serrano Elementary • i like that my teacher and friends help me Serrano Elementary • I think OUSD should add more Phisycal Education activities like soccer, volleyball, and football. Just so some kids have an opportunity to learn a sport and maybe play in highschool to get some sort of scholarship for college. I think these changes will help students be more career ready. Serrano Elementary • I think OUSD should have sports for students, more activites outside of school, and if some students are falling behind that teachers and staff should take their recess and help them/ teach them because whatever they are falling behind of, they could see that for their rest of their life/in collage. Serrano Elementary • I think that at Serrano Elementary and other schools like this I wish our school had a cafeteria. I also wish that my school had an auditorium. Serrano Elementary • I think that some teachers should care more about their kids and not give them more and more homework everyday. I know this because, I had this type of teacher in kinder. Her name was Mrs. Ash, and she was hard/strict on us. She was more strict to the kids that didn´t behave. She teaches highschool Serrano Elementary • I think that this school is doing amazing with all of the thing this survey covered. The only thing I am concerned about is fellow classmates attitudes toward the teachers and staff. Thank You!

Finally, we have ideas of a career in the future.

Villa Park Elementary • For college I either want to go to Moorpark college(because I love animals) or UCLA(because I want to be a marine biologist) So anyway I can be accepted into one I would really appreciate the possibility. I also for highschool and middle school I want to work hard, strive to get honors(leadership) Villa Park Elementary • For my 3rd period the teacher should read along not just students and be a little nicer. Villa Park Elementary • I can not find any issues or problems with Orange Unified School District educational experiences. Villa Park Elementary • I can't find any issues or problems in my Orange Unified School District. educational experience. Villa Park Elementary • I feel that team building exercises need to be supervised. it gives talkative kids more of a chance to talk to friends in his group and makes it hard to get work done ( I'm talking from past experiences) I suggest that teachers supervise group discussions and tell students to get back on track Villa Park Elementary • I feel that the district is doing almost everything right to this day, the only thing that I disagree with is the disipline. Villa Park Elementary • i like this school because it feels safe and all teachers are nice Villa Park Elementary • I love building objects with different materials to make amazing thing. So, I wish that we could have a little more of steam or just a little of creativity time to create something our own. Villa Park Elementary • I love chemisty and i wish we could do more of that. Fitness and music is on a higher side, we have a amazing PE couch and our VAPA teaches are great to. In my opinion, this school is on the higher list and so are many elemartry schools in this district. Villa Park Elementary • i ready is absolute trash Villa Park Elementary • I think art time should be added because you have to draw for a project. Villa Park Elementary • I think if the teachers really take the time to know about the students current life, then they won't treat them like they are having an average day. You never know what is going on in another person's life so teachers should treat them that way. I want my teacher to know the stress I'm under. Villa Park Elementary • I think that if we had someone who would go around to every student individually and ask if they feel ok mentally and physically. I would also like if someone was always there to help you succeed. Oh wait, we already have a teacher so one of those things is off the list. ok byeeeeeeeee. Villa Park Elementary • I think that my school is doing well with SBAC scores and student support, I would change nothing, the teacher do understand some of the problems that students are going through, but I think that having more after school program would benefit my school. Villa Park Elementary • I think that my school is very helpful and provides everything I need to be successful however I do think that my school should not use so much technology and use more hands on work so we know how to use both technology and books. Villa Park Elementary • I think that OUSD is a perfect district for us kids. But I do not think that my parents are involved as much as they should be.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Villa Park Elementary • OUSD can improve my educational experience by providing BETTER HOT LUNCH. Sometimes in class after lunch I am hungry since the lunch was not appetizing and healthy. For instance the hotdogs that taste like McDonalds chicken nuggets but like 20x worse. They don't like appetizing or taste appetizing.

Villa Park Elementary • Ousd can improve our education with better internet so that way we can not be interupted in our learning schedual! Villa Park Elementary • OUSD can improve students education that can help in the future by letting students out at the exact moment the bell rings.

Villa Park Elementary • Some ways ousd could improve my educational exerience would be to keep [staff member] away from me. This would improve my experience because she is constantly finding every little thing and holding it against me and my friends. This is most unfair because she punishes my friends for no reason. Villa Park Elementary • Sometimes students do and say things that should'nt be done or said. Some teachers know about it but I am always still hearing the same thing every day and I believe I'm too young to start getting into that stuff. I know you might not know about it but NOW you know and you can do something now. Villa Park Elementary • There should be classes where kids can join at lunch and after school if they need help.

(300 character limit) Cerro Villa Middle School • I don't think busy work for homework exactly helps us but I enjoy the school athletics and it is a great experience Cerro Villa Middle School • I dont think that there is muck problems with the education it is all pretty good, I am lucky that our school still has our sport. Cerro Villa Middle School • I don't think you need to improve our learning experience. Cerro Villa Middle School • I feel a little disgusted at our school because its dirty and i feel like their could be some improvements with the building. Cerro Villa Middle School • I feel a little unsafe here because I have a friend who got threatened and there have been fights here and I'm kinda worried that something like that will happen to me. Cerro Villa Middle School • i feel like i can be more successful with help from a teacher. Cerro Villa Middle School • I feel like school needs to become more safe for the students around us, even though the school is really fun and exciting. I didn't even know we had counselors. Cerro Villa Middle School • I feel like teachers should teach us more usfull stuff like how to pay taxes and to buy a house ect beacause thiscould improve our future Cerro Villa Middle School • I feel like this is a little bit far fetched but maybe in the next years OUSD can transition to online classes. I would want classes to be online because it could benefit certain people. For example if somebody was absent because the were sick they could not fall behind and go on their home computer Cerro Villa Middle School • I feel my school is good at supporting us as students. But, I dont think we have guidance counslers and there really isnt anyone to helo us through difficult deciusons Cerro Villa Middle School • I feel my school is put together but, I dont even think we have guidance counslers. Cerro Villa Middle School • I feel that homework is pointless to me because it just tells me what I all ready know and is making me learn it all over again. Also most teachers claim the homework will help you the homework doesn't help me it just makes me stressed. Cerro Villa Middle School • I feel that my school could be safer and cleaner. Cerro Villa Middle School • I feel that our school can be stronger with our looks. We should also help out the leadership program with more supplies to help our school be better and more fun. Cerro Villa Middle School • I find that a way that students at Cerro Villa middle school could be more successful, would be to have a couple of high schoolers come to our school and tutor kids who are struggling with some of their classes.

Cerro Villa Middle School • I think ousd can help me by advertising tutors or more time after class to ask questions Cerro Villa Middle School • I think OUSD can help my school be a better place by, sending representatives to observe some classrooms and give both students can teachers feedback.

Cerro Villa Middle School • I think students would be able to take their computers to school everyday to be able to use them in school Cerro Villa Middle School • I think teachers should teach at a average pace, not to slow and not to fast, some teachers don't take their time and go through the lesson really fast.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready?

Cerro Villa Middle School • I think that this district/school is doing great all in itself. I feel that there is no need for changes or anything of the sort. Your doing great! Cerro Villa Middle School • I think that us students can have our electronics (phones, iPads, and computers)because it can help us learn more and the school can have more of their own electronics to use for the school. Cerro Villa Middle School • I think that you should encourage students to express themselves more in writing or artwork. Cerro Villa Middle School • I think the best way that OUSD could improve my education experience is by enforcing the school rules more. There are a lot of rowdy kids at school that can make it uncomfortable when I am there. Cerro Villa Middle School • I think the school is fine the way it is. Cerro Villa Middle School • I think the school should enforce and remind students more about the school rules. Cerro Villa Middle School • I think ther could be more time in between classes by a minute or two.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Cerro Villa Middle School • I would prefer for middle schools and high schools to have more after-school programs that last longer. Volunteer work should be recognized a lot in school. People who have special needs like a physical disability, or ADD should also be paid attention to more as well. Fundraising for schools count 2 Cerro Villa Middle School • I would say probably giving more stuff to do in school activities after school such as theater everyday (maybe). And maybe the teachers doing more stuff with us rather than them just teaching then giving hs homework.I don't really kno anything else OUSD is a great school district. Cerro Villa Middle School • I would say that this school is fine the way it is. It has teachers to help us, if struggling, and the ability to change the schedule at the first part of school is very helpful. Cerro Villa Middle School • If the teachers don’t know how much homework they piled up on you it is bad.This is because to much homework can cause stress you plus whatever is happening outside of school and stress causes a lot of problems. Cerro Villa Middle School • If you are asking me, that means that you haven't taken the time to observe what actually happens around school. I believe that teachers should pay more attention to their students and not just the class as a whole. I also believe that students as of right now don't respect the rules placed by the Cerro Villa Middle School • i'm alright Cerro Villa Middle School • I'm Cool Cerro Villa Middle School • I'm not entirely sure what else could be changed in order to help me be college and career ready Cerro Villa Middle School • improve bathrooms and water fountains.

Cerro Villa Middle School • Improve water fountains and bathrooms Cerro Villa Middle School • in dont think they need anything because the have a college and career Cerro Villa Middle School • In my opinion i believe this school needs more activities and more homework and more support to students that aren't getting about the classes. Cerro Villa Middle School • In school, I am happy about how much homework we get. There are two things I think that we can improve. In English, we should right more lengthy papers/essays to get us prepared for college. And in math, we should learn about taxes and debt. This could help us in the future with book payments later. Cerro Villa Middle School • inprove water Cerro Villa Middle School • it can help me with nothing Cerro Villa Middle School • It can improve by teaching us life skills for adult life like how to pay taxes, how to buy a house, how to keep a good credit score, etc. Cerro Villa Middle School • It can improve if the the girl lockers had cold air. and more time to get to class Cerro Villa Middle School • it fine Cerro Villa Middle School • it ight Cerro Villa Middle School • It is illegal for a teacher to keep a class after the bell rings as punishment.

Cerro Villa Middle School • The OUSD can help make school safer by removing children who are dangerous. Cerro Villa Middle School • The OUSD can work with people who need help with math.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Cerro Villa Middle School • They can help by stopping school fights and cleaner water fountains. School fights cause stress among students, which doesn't help with learning. We also need cleaner water fountains because many students drink from the water fountains, and I can literally taste the chlorine from some fountains.

Cerro Villa Middle School • They can improve by using more technology. Cerro Villa Middle School • They can improve how to teach us the best knowledge they know and how to teach. I would say that this school district has the best way to improve their thinking and the school district can improve on their teachers because they can be very mean because I have a teacher that is kinda rude. Your Welco Cerro Villa Middle School • They can improve it by letting kids have a break period once in a while where in that period if you worked really hard for about 2 months, then one day you would get a break by playing fun games such as Kahoot or Quizlet.

A remark I have to say is that maybe we should add more participation assemblies. Thank you!

McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • have more sports in my school McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • How the OUSD can improve our educational experience that will help is that they should have vending machines. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I am not sure I think the schools are fine the way they are McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I believe if they gave students a better way of understanding, such as letting students eat in class. They should also give students better learning tools. Also, they should get better food so that students will be able to think, learn, etc while in classes after lunch. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I can't think of anything you can improve on for now. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I don't have a say because I think this school is fine that the way it is.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I think i my opinion OUSD can make the campus more of a clean and healthy environment. If we have a clean environment then we have more focused students and more positive students. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I think it would be great if there was a period of free time where students could go to their teachers and talk to them. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I think my school should get better hot lunch food, and redo the bathrooms! They constantly smell, and have a NASTY odor when I walk in, maybe air freshener will help? Also, the food lunch has been getting better, just some food doesn't even look edible! I once got expired applesauce(diSgUsTiNG) McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I think OUSD can improve are school by letting the teachers teach how they want to because they can help us more when they can their way. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I think OUSD can improve my learning experience by having the school actually close the back gates. Keeping the two back gates closed during school hours would make me feel safer. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I think OUSD can make my school experience better is to have more field trips, art projects (meet the masters) and other creative projects. Subjects such as science and history are boring in my opinion. These subjects should be more interesting. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I think schools should have clean campus because there is so much trash everywhere recently so I think they should do something about the trash. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I think that if restrictions were less enforced think that things would work a lot more smoothly. I also believe that teacher and student personal engagement should be a lot more enforced and used in some situations. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I think that OUSD can help our experience by teaching teachers to help students better. This is because my math teacher is pretty unorganized. One day, me and my partner were taking notes up on the board, then we noticed that the notes were completely different! McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I think that OUSD can improve by giving us more periods if you want to speak more than just spanish. And the after school events like sports ect, might be better if we add a little more to them for instance I know that they have spanish, drama, art, music, chess, and science ect, but I we need more. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I think that OUSD can improve my educational experience by providing more out of school opporttunities for us and by having more educational field trips in middle school and hands on activities for us. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I think that OUSD is perfect for education but the teachers need to be more strict on bullying McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • i think that ousd is perfect just the way it is. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • i think that the ousd can help me improve my edication and carrer by helping me in math sciece and history McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I think that the school I attend should focus on strengthening on the current classes we have and not focus on making new classes. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I think that the school is good how it is I don't think the school needs that much changes. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I think that there should not be so much homework so I have more time to think about other things.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I think the school can improve by having more teachers who can help you when you fall behind because that has happened to me and my teacher just said get it done. but the teacher didn't help with it at all and the teacher doesn't even teach us anymore they the teacher just gives us questions then do McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I think the staff should maybe be more aware, and possibly go into looking at rumors that are going around. Although kids often spread rumors that may not be true, it's better safe than sorry. I think the staff should also take more action in misbehaving and bullying. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I think they are doing a good job right now but it think that they are to strict on school. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I think they are doing a good job with helping me get ready for college and career ready but they should talk to us about what we want to do when we are older and how we can improve our grades. they should talk to us if we have any missing home work and what we can do to get our grades back up. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I think they should fix the bathrooms because they smell and look really bad. I also don't like that they are not aware that someone can jump over the fence in the back and start shooting, so with that being said they should make it and indoor school or have classes somewhere ales. thx for listening McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I think they should have like a college prep class or at least an assembly to help students prepare for the college and career process. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • i think this school can help all students currently attending by improving our amount of being on more worried about information McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I think this school could help me get to college and career by when I make mistakes, the school would help me understand my mistakes so i don't make them again. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I want free dress everyday also less homework I almost died from doing too much homework broski McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I wish some of the teachers would be more involved in what we are doing as a team. Some teachers are great at doing this, but others not so much. Some teachers don't ask us if we understand something or offer a place where we can ask questions about something if not in class. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I would like an outdoor work area where i can work outside McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I would like it if they actually contacted my parents instead of using the same general voice mail for each family. Also, i would like it if they actually used Steam instead of stem. Along with that, I would like it if they had vapa for 6th grade, 7th grade, and 8th grade.And that's how it can help. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I would like school better if the bathrooms were fixed. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • I would like the bathrooms to be redone and update some water fountains. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • Improve some teacher's attitude. They can also make class less stressful so that we will want to continue school, and even want to go to college. Maybe we would save the stress untill highschool and college. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • It can improve by giving more options and opportunities for homework help. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • It can improve my educational experience by giving us a little bit more free time as a reward for us doing what we ares supposed to do.

McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • OUSD can improve my educational experience by letting me have more field trips for middle school. For example, when we're learning about Egyptian history we could go to a museum filled with mostly Egyptian artifacts. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • OUSD can improve my educational experience by making it more fun. The OUSD are AMAZING, but they should have more programs for school and after. They should also have better bathrooms and make them smell better too! Include more supplies and more fundraisers that include free participation.

McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • Some ways that OUSD can improve my educational experience is to continue to allow students to be digitally active because the world is revolving around technology, and if students don't learn how to be digital, it'll be really hard for them to find out new things without having sources of knowledge. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • Some ways the OUSD can help improve my educational experience is by adding or including more hands on and more exciting activities.

McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • THE BATHROOMS ARE DISGUSTING. They were supposed to be done, but they weren't. We have A LOT of homework. I have more daily than my cousin in junior year of high school. Also, in the hot food, there was MELTED STYROFOAM AND PLASTIC which releases TOXIC CHEMICALS into the food making it very harmful! McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • The dress code. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • The other ways to improve my experience is by have more sport related things and also if you are already pass the highest level in lets just say math and you already know all the things what you are learning you can go onto a smaller class that can be at the right level for you.

McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • They should spreed awarness about mentall heath issues. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • This school is good but some of the teachers are good and some are bad but the school does have a lot of support by people but i don't like it because they are way to strict and we have to wear uniforms. the school is very very nice but some staff are mean like [staff member] he is way too disrepectful. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • This school is great I just wish we had free dress more often. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • To enhance the experience at Mcpherson It would be nice to have the girls bathroom CLEAN for once cause it reeks of unsanitary stenches.

McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • To get more learning activities rather than just reading notes and a book. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • To help me they can get better food in the cafeteria because the cafeteria food was once melted with the plastic. McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • To start it off, I believe our school has done a lot of good things they should and that they are doing almost everything right.

McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • well i like funny books but some peopel like other books McPherson Magnet (6th-8th) • Well, for starters, I am irritated that y'all over block EVERYTHING!

Portola Middle School • I believe this school should have field trips constantly to encourage students to think about what they want to do in the future. I also believe that this school should re-think the way that they punish bullying. They should add more clubs for people who don't want to get into the clubs we have. Portola Middle School • I can prove everyone to be strong and study hard for anything in every class they go to. I want to make sure that everyone deserves another chance to be able to do their work. Some people need some advice from everyone they look up to. i will give advice to little kids and some people who need help. Portola Middle School • I can speak and hear English better. Portola Middle School • I do not think that we should have a dress code. Portola Middle School • i don't think that anything is bad with this school but the snack prices could be cheaper. Portola Middle School • I feel like Portola should have a hip hop group so people that like to dance. Also, that it should not have fights or any type of drama. Then, the lunch should be more better and not taste really bad. Next, the teachers should help the kids more on class work. Then, we should have longer lunch. yay. Portola Middle School • I feel like the school should have better food Portola Middle School • i feel like wearing free dress is better cuz your showing who you are and you feel more comfortable there should also be more technology for the students so we can learn new thing on tech. Portola Middle School • I feel that my educational experience can improve by more field trips. Portola Middle School • I food could use improvement. Portola Middle School • I have no idea, i'm honestly fine with the school Portola Middle School • i like portolA just need less hw Portola Middle School • i like to have a gym at the school so i can workout Portola Middle School • I like to have a gym with weights at school so some of the kids could work out.

What i'm saying is that OUSD provides enough education for us to be college and career ready. Portola Middle School • I think a good way to change the school is to get better food and more activities! UwU oh and less drama Portola Middle School • I think if they have certain times for dances and events like that or if they have more type of sports for the year such as sports like tea ball and stuff like that Portola Middle School • I think in this school, staff should keep a look out because some people might be doing things secretly all over the school, they also might be doing something bad and no one might know who it is. I haven't seen any of it and I hope not to see any of it, but it's just some advice for the future.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Portola Middle School • I think it need more field trip, activities, and more elective. I think the school needs more books. Portola Middle School • I think maybe if we start school around 9:15 it would be better because students can go in the morning and start homework that was in complete and eat breakfast and take your time and to sleep in so when you enter school their we be less children who are tired. Portola Middle School • I think nutrition should be longer, I don't like [staff member] he is very rude/disrespec.I also think that there should be a bunch of tables in the cafeteria to eat because its hot outside, passing period should also be like 6 minutes. School should start later.And vegan options for lunch cuz im vegan Portola Middle School • I think OUSD can improve my educational experience by having fun learning activities and getting a little less homework. Also we can have more electives to chose from and have a little more time to turn in unfinished or missing assignments. Also if we have more educational field trips it could help. Portola Middle School • I think OUSD should have a higher standard of education for kids. Many things that are taught are often repeated or below standards to other places. Portola Middle School • I think school needs to start a bit later so children can have better rest and be much more focused in school. I think we need more programs to get students involved in the school and make them look forward to going to school and learn. Portola Middle School • I think school should be shorter so kids won't go home tired. Portola Middle School • i think school should start at 9:00 am and end at 3:00 because students are to tired to even think in the morning Portola Middle School • I think school should start like 9:00 because kids are to tired at 8:00 and they won't pay attention. Portola Middle School • I think that a new improvement to the school is that the school dress code could be changed, meaning that the students could wear different types of hoodies,pants,shirts, and that the school could improve the uniforms. Portola Middle School • I think that a way that portola can better as a school all together is to allow more time to get to each period becouse i feel that four minits is not enoghe time to get to like faraway classes . I also feel that they cloud inforce more disiplen to keep kids safe when there are fights and arguments Portola Middle School • I think that everthig my school is doing it can help me it going good Portola Middle School • I think that i would want to have more people that had experience to help us. Portola Middle School • i think that if i could pick something that they can add at portola is that w should have more activites and that they should have a girl and boys basket ball and vollyball team. Portola Middle School • I think that OUSD can give us more sports. Also, to maybe add a dance team. Portola Middle School • I think that ousd could improve is by making it easiar for us to log into the apps. Portola Middle School • I think that Portola middle school should not be that strict about jackets and that they should be a better music teacher, I also think that there should be more field trips for class es like history, science, and music. Portola Middle School • I think that Portola should have a cheerleading team so that they can go cheer at the soccer games, football games, etc. I also think they should have a dance competition team so that all of the people in the dance team can go compete and win trophies and many more.We should also have longer breaks.

At the moment I cannot think of any ways the OUSD schools could improve but there is always room for improvement and changes. Santiago Charter Middle School • get better staff Santiago Charter Middle School • I don't really know about the education thing but the food can be better way better and by helping the enviorment you can stop using plastic bags for every thing even are pizza is it plastic bags. Santiago Charter Middle School • I really don't think that OUSD can improve my educational experience because this school is already a lot better than my elementary school. It has caring teachers, a nice principal, and staff that care about you and want to get involved with your work. Santiago Middle school is the best school. Santiago Charter Middle School • I think it is fine how it is right now. Santiago Charter Middle School • i would say they should provide us more book to read. Santiago Charter Middle School • Improving on educational experience;I say that more real life situations should be taught in subjects, rather than just a topic that won't bring us OUSD students a futurely advantage. If we learned better math for the better, helpful history for the greater, english for the future, and more for us. Santiago Charter Middle School • Make the restrooms better.

Yorba Middle School • First of all, We get stressed a lot with the homework because sometimes it is to much or to difficult.Many kids are to shy to ask for help or tutors in front of others.I personally think that you should call in people who are struggling and make a class and reteach them and have them ask questions. Yorba Middle School • For me, I want the school to really talk about college and the smart choices we have to make in high school as early as a freshman/sophomore. College is very important and I wish I would've made different choices coming from a senior perspective. Yorba Middle School • For my college career I want to be a doctor.

El Modena High School • Put the teachers through more training so we are learning with the best technology of today El Modena High School • The education should be more related to real-life experience and how education can come into play with it. They're should also make the college and career opportunities more known to the students. El Modena High School • The girls' bathrooms are in need of repair. The hand dryers don't work and some of the sinks are broken. There is often no soap in the dispensers as well. Also, there are constantly people vaping in the bathrooms and no one does anything about it. El Modena High School • They can be more involved in helping students. El Modena High School • They can improve on the food they serve,and they could improve how fun the classes are to get students more engaged . They could also increase the variety of classes to choose from as well.

(300 character limit) Orange High School • A class for personal skills that will help you through college and career. Orange High School • add more classes Orange High School • As we start getting closer to college they should maybe treat us at a college level. Counselors should give us more information about college. Orange High School • be more supportive and understanding. inform us about different opportunities that school provides. Orange High School • better admin Orange High School • Better teachers. Orange High School • By helping me with math, because I'm very bad at it. Science is the best subject for me. Orange High School • by not givin after school detention. Orange High School • College workshops Orange High School • Construction is getting very difficult to work around with. Pathways are blocked, and we must walk all around the school to class. Teachers aren't lenient with being late. Orange High School • Counselors need to at least TRY and take a student's opinion/academic struggle into consideration instead of immediately choosing what's good good for that student and not communicating with them properly. Orange High School • For faculty to be more understanding and that every student sometimes need to be handled with differently, trying to be one on one when they see a negative change in students and also be supportive to students Orange High School • Get better food and ACTUALLY help out their athletics programs Orange High School • GIve some real life classes that we are going to use in life.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Orange High School • I believe a way to get people college and career ready is to give classes that would actually matter, maybe like how to do taxes class or how to improve credit class. Mostly any class that can give financial support since most don't know how to do anything financial. Orange High School • I believe if we had college like schedules it would keep us on track. Like meeting mondays and wednesday for some classes then tuesday and thursday and then go to all on Fridays. There should be more college or fafsa workshops or major/minor workshops. Orange High School • I believe in order to improve my educational experience, the school should offer more AP courses in like AP Computer Science and AP Statistics. It would give us as students more access to potential areas of work in the future. Orange High School • I believe that OUSD is doing their best, but that they should give more times then a block schedule to apply. Orange High School • i can harder and learn more Orange High School • i feel everything ig going good in school. Orange High School • I have nothing to say Orange High School • I just want the schools be remodeled to a more modern feel Orange High School • I need improve in my writing skills, I could take harder test to help me get smarter in things. Orange High School • I think OUSD can improve by being more up and front about things such as applying for college. We have workshops and other things I may not be aware of, but as of right now I haven't had convenient and easy information on certain things like applying for colleges. Orange High School • I think ousd can improve in more sports like cross county and track and lacross on so much more. Orange High School • i think that having the gradeslam tutor will help when we cant figure out a problem and need help understanding something. Orange High School • I think that my educational experinec here was very helpful for me. Orange High School • i think that other ways to improve my expirience are getting more apportunities to live in real life situations such as internships and other stuff like that. Orange High School • I think that OUSD can improve everyone's educational experience by letting us be more than just a school let us be encouraged to attend events outside of school that will help us expand our knowledge of the way life will be and what going to college can truly offer you. Let us be together. Orange High School • I think that OUSD should have teachers talk to kids individually because there are kids who are shy and don't wanna ask questions. But, besides that I think they are doing a good job :) Orange High School • I think the school could tells more about colleges . Orange High School • i think the school should give us every detail there is to now and not sugar cote everything. Orange High School • I think there is no need for improvement the school is doing very well ans as well as the staff Orange High School • I want to get more help with scholarships and grades. Plus better help with education and math would help this school. If OHS could just get people to participate in stuff like band or small groups it would be great.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Orange High School • i would like a cosmetology class, and would really love to see a STEAM program and a class about life skills, not just how to get a job, but how to file taxes and driving skills Orange High School • I would really love a dentistry program here at Orange High School. Instead of kicking out the students who smoke, right away, they give them 3 warnings and shut down the bathroom which is not helpful because the smokers go to the other bathroom that is open. Orange High School • I would say be willing to assist individual students with making a plan out of high school, for example assisting them with a financial plan before giving them aid. Not only financially though, but helping them make a plan in general would give them more confidence in where they're headed. Orange High School • I would suggest enforcing different courses that we will actually utilize as we grow academically.There's courses that teach knowledge that is not mandatory to learn.Courses that talk about paying for big purchases or investing would be a course that would be advantageous to the individuals' life. Orange High School • I’m not sure but I love it here. Orange High School • If we students are going to attend school for most of our lives, at least don't make it seem like its a prison or we are being held here hostage. Make us feel like we are at home and not in a place we all hate. Orange High School • I'm getting all the help I need in OUSD. Orange High School • It can be helpful by having more help can come because some of the teachers and students need help. Because teachers can't handle the students are loud and the teachers can't focous when its loud. Orange High School • Its good the lunch ladies are really nice they always call me sweetie, honey, and they tell me not to forget my fruit so that makes my day give them a raise. Now!!!!!!! Orange High School • let us play prodigy. And better fooooooooooooooooooooooood plz Orange High School • Make the lunches great again Orange High School • Maybe give us class the with for sure help us when we graduate high school Orange High School • Maybe having conferences with either college students or college proffesors that know how college works Orange High School • More classes are need to be available to athletes and students with a full schedule. I wanted to take a medical core class, but it was only available as a 6th period class, and due to my athletics, I was not able to take it. AP/Honors classes limit the amount of CTE classes that fit in your day. Orange High School • More funding for sports equipment and also more breaks and maybe start school later Orange High School • more real life experience in classes Orange High School • more security Orange High School • need more security for our safety Orange High School • Nothing because Orange High can help me when I need help. Orange High School • Offer IB Courses Orange High School • One major problem of school is the teachers. Enforcing and making it so each teacher is properly teaching their students, whilst also granting the needed amount of education for each student to succeed academically. Orange High School • Orange High School can monitoring the bathrooms for people who do weed. Note. Comments are transcribed as they were received. 175

Orange High School • OUSD should offer more SAT prep classes and have more tutors in helping kids with their academics. Orange High School • OUSD staff should speak to the students more. Orange High School • Please provide more emotional support when needed for students, as I’m afraid most people I know and myself are scared to ask for help.. Orange High School • Probably listen more to what students want. Along with that, help students get more informed about better things Orange High School • Provide classes on adult issues such as learning how to do taxes, etc. Orange High School • Provide more AP classes Orange High School • Provide more mental health counselors, lots of students need them at OHS Orange High School • Rather than pushing for CTE classes that don't interest the students, try to engage with students in what they find interesting and provide those classes instead. Orange High School • safer fences Orange High School • Some other ways that can help me be college and career ready is for me to pay attention and not get in truoble. Orange High School • Some ways that OUSD can improve my educational experience is more electives and more opportunities that are college related. Orange High School • Stop construction Orange High School • Teachers who encourage all students and not just focus on helping some. Counselors who take students' opinion into consideration instead of deciding things for you. Orange High School • The school needs to improve helping other students because there's alot of people out there that hasn't understand the concept of education and life. So the only way to make that possible is to add more assistance to the school so more students can have a chance to tall and communicate with them. Orange High School • The security can use some help with checking ID. Orange High School • There are many other ways you can help out students like me in any sort of way Orange High School • There is more drug use, fights, and underage sex than there should be at school.

More opportunities can be provided. Orange High School • They can support me by aiding students better Orange High School • They encouraged me to continue my education and showed me what I can do after college.

(300 character limit) Villa Park High School • Access more opportunities to get an internship in different careers, to get a better chance of obtaining a job. Villa Park High School • Allow for more exposure to college oppurtunities. Put in a block schuedule. Have a pereiod embedded in the daily schudule to do class and home work. Villa Park High School • Another way that OUSD can improve my learning abilities would be to get better wifi for the school because when I have to take an online test and I can not log onto it I am just losing the amount of time I can spend on the test. Villa Park High School • better school enviornment Villa Park High School • by putting other programs Villa Park High School • By talking about more college offerings and scholarships. Villa Park High School • crack down on vaping, thanks Villa Park High School • Destroy/Burn down the whole school. Villa Park High School • Extra credit assignments would be better for me to improve my grades and better vending machines and to take away the zero sugar gatorade because sorry but everyone hates it. Villa Park High School • financial classes so you know how to things like taxes. Villa Park High School • finish construction on time and right Villa Park High School • For college they should help show how to enroll and know when to enroll. The requirements to get into a certain college. Villa Park High School • get new laptops and equipment for the classes Villa Park High School • give me an ipad to do my work in it Villa Park High School • Going over the lesson again if needed. I think that I am doing a good job in school with what the school already provides. no drugs enforeced more. Villa Park High School • Have a more close campus and more engaging work in classes and more physically active learning activities. Villa Park High School • have better buildings Villa Park High School • Have classes that can help with real life. For instance, paying taxes, or helping with applications. Have workshops or electives that help with those types of problems. Have more opportunities for college Villa Park High School • Help all the students who want to go to college and support them with financial support, Villa Park High School • Help apply emotional attention to teachers. They tend to forget we can be stressed. Villa Park High School • hm i dont really know im able to improve my learning hoe things are Villa Park High School • I am fine with the way things are.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Villa Park High School • I think everything is fine. Villa Park High School • I think more college classes will help. Also tutoring if needed should be provided because not many people may understand what to do and may need the help. Villa Park High School • I think more courses on the application process and choosing colleges more carefully for the future. Villa Park High School • I think OUSD has done a great job with the college and career experience. Such as, bringing colleges to my school like the concelors or other staff that work there and also having interships, I think, starting in junior year. Villa Park High School • I think OUSD is fairly efficient. Maybe they can improve access to better resources. Villa Park High School • I think OUSD needs to do a better job of reaching out to the kids whos truggle in school and help them apply to colleges. Villa Park High School • I think people (teachers), like Miss P (that all imma say) should try a diifernt stely of teaching, cuz hers dosent work for me Villa Park High School • I think promoting more of the performing arts programs and allowing the students the classes they want to take would make the school system a lot better. Villa Park High School • i think that our school is extremley old and it kinda sucks. Our gym was said to be done by summer and they still have not fixed it. I dont think I have seen one construction worker walk in. Also they are doing some construction for something, and it is so loud in class I cant even hear anything !!! Villa Park High School • I think that OUSD can help me be college or career ready by helping me when I need it. They can help me with my communication skills to talk to people in case in college I become a doctor. College gives you lots of opportunities. If I play softball in college and there are UCLA scout, i could play. Villa Park High School • I think that the board needs to find teachers that are passionate about their job. That before they hire teachers that know what they're doing and have a plan. Some of my teachers get off topic too easily and sometimes do not even have a lesson plan. Some seem to have given up on teaching in general Villa Park High School • I think that the OUSD should not give students in VPHS a few extra days of school right after the finals because really who is going to actually try to learn after accomplishing finals in which people had to study for weeks on end? I would be purely lazy for those few days as most people would. Villa Park High School • I wish that OUSD would get more personal with the students, because without that link an adult and teen should be getting, they won't feel motivated to keep going as well. Villa Park High School • I would like to have less assignments that don't improve my overall skill level. Villa Park High School • I would prefer if Villa Park High School had gates which would make me feel much safer. Also, OUSD should not allow online tests at all. Sometimes the grade is wrong on the laptop and my grade drops even if my answer is correct. It is a disadvantage to take online test. All tests should be on paper. Villa Park High School • Inform our parents more Villa Park High School • It can improve by focusing on what college we want to go to or what career we want to do when are older.In my opinion that's how I think OUSD can improve getting you ready for your future career and what college you want to go to. Villa Park High School • Just help the school

Villa Park High School • Offer more real life experience classes and courses. Villa Park High School • OUSD can help by helping out more with real life problems, not things we'll never use again Villa Park High School • OUSD can help with the stolen that were stolen like airpods,airpod cases,phones,money,clothes,etc. Also it would help if we the library is open early so that the kids with no 0 period can go in and study. It would also help if the school will give more extra credit in other classes. Villa Park High School • Ousd can improve an educational experience is to incooperate more career, and knowing what you want to be/do right out of highchool when the times comes. Villa Park High School • OUSD can improve my educational experience by bringing back workshops that are applicable to real life situations, like how to do taxes or cooking classes. They can also set up more meetings and visits about careers and can have the career focus classes be more interactive, as I am taking one now. Villa Park High School • OUSD can improve our educational experience by being more proactive in terms of students' mental health and bringing awareness to parents. Villa Park High School • OUSD can try their best to encourage diversity at schools. Diversity in the way where different type of students help out in school activities, and to ensure that certain groups at school are not dominated by a certain demographic of students. Villa Park High School • ousd could provide a class that helps with college applications senior year Villa Park High School • Please give us a kitchen that isn't a giant microwave and good school food. I swear the stuff looks about 20 years old, tops, and also the coaches are using their players as pawns in a game for bragging rights as they are being taken out of their classes and told to only care for their sports. Villa Park High School • Provide classes that will help students prepare for applying to colleges and universities Villa Park High School • Provide more info on colleges and how to apply.

(300 character limit) Villa Park High School • say more opportunities that will get the school to know what they should be doing Villa Park High School • Teachers need to pay more attention to students to make sure they are being appropriate and NOT picking on other students. Teachers also need to take charge more when people are being disrespectful in class and making noise that are distracting the class or table group. Villa Park High School • Teachers should learn to be more personal and help the children who ask them for help their learning needs Villa Park High School • The construction at VPHS is happening all at once in multiple parts of the school and it gets in the way a lot, in the future, please space out construction projects. Villa Park High School • The counselors really don't want to meet with students. Villa Park High School • The school can be more aware of what classes and activites the school needs. If students can do more than on sport. I want to dance and track at the same time but i can't do that, i want to find out how i can do that. school can do more after school participation to get to know their students more. Villa Park High School • The school district could incorporate more real life experiences, like internships and scenarios such as taxes and budgets to truly prepare students for financial stability. Villa Park High School • The school needs to be renovated. Too many old classrooms. Need to be brought up to date. Finish our track/field. Villa Park High School • They can focus on the students mental health. Villa Park High School • They can teach me how to survive in the real world and hoe to save our planet. Villa Park High School • They could be a little better at communicating when something for collage is going on at our school. Maybe use more than just posters. Villa Park High School • they could give more money to villa park hs to fix same part of school Villa Park High School • they should have more options out for the students since everyone has a career they want to pursue. and be able to teach the students well. they should ensure the safety of our students and have like a gate or something in front of the open breezeway when anyone can get in or out . Villa Park High School • they should prepare us for the next level, be on us more often about are assignments so that we could get used to do them, talk to us more about how to go down the wrong path and the right. Villa Park High School • They would be able to teach us about real-world stuff, like how to do taxes and stuff. I'm almost going to graduate, and hardly know how to do all that adult stuff. I wish there was an actual drama teacher here too, because thats what i'm passionate about. When theres no teacher, it makes me sad. Villa Park High School • To be honest, I don't think there is any way to improve my educational experience. Everything that OUSD is doing is fine and nothing needs to be changed for me. Villa Park High School • To make sure Aeries is always up to date and that its working. SOmetimes you press on it and it doesn't end up working.

School What other ways can OUSD improve your educational experience that will help you be college and career ready? (300 character limit) Canyon Rim Elementary • They can take us to the STEAM lab more cause we only go there like 1 time a year. i also think we should be able to play more fun educational games rather than taking boring notes in a notebook. A lot of the time i don't even pay attention because of how boring it is (Sorry Mr.Sokoloff). Canyon Rim Elementary • get a better band teacher, have the grass be better and have it not be a little long. Canyon Rim Elementary • My teacher mr cazeau wont let us go to pe Canyon Rim Elementary • our teacher doesn't let us have pe {mr.cazeau} Chapman Hills Elementary • Other ways OUSD can improve my educational experience that will help me be college and career ready is by stop bullying at Chapman Hills while Mrs. Saenz is letting the bullies get by with the bullying. And Mrs. Saenz gets the person standing up to the bully in trouble. Esplanade Elementary • Get better lunch ladies or men. Fletcher Elementary • my teacher (Ms.hu) does not tell me what is wrong when i ask so it is hard to improve my behavior La Veta Elementary • I think that the teachers here are very mean.Mrs.Gaut is mean and she always gives us extra homework and if they would be nice to us I would be less scarde to say the wrong awnser or put it down.They scream at us at i don't fell safe here with the teachers even they can't touch me. Lampson Elementary • Ousd can help me by letting me see my own grades in Mrs Roberts class and it also helps me by letting me do good activities like I-Ready and Lexia. Palmyra Elementary • I think that you should really pay attention to kids. Also, that even though they say that they say that they have awesome staff Ms.Tran is really mean and THAT'S why people don't listen to her. She , no offence, really is a bummer. Prospect Elementary • ousd can improve by giving better lunch and make the lunch enough for everyone because its not fair that some people don't get the good lunch and tell Mrs Matson to give us more exercise because we don't ever do PE and we barely get to run one last thing is that they should take better care of us!! Running Springs • OUSD has helped alot i used to go to Frank Kim Elementry in Las Vages and when Elementary I came to this school I was so behind I came in Third grade january now I am in fifth grade but when I first came we were learning cursive and i didnt know how to do it I have caught up alot now thanks tanks to OUSD Running Springs • HAve some of the teacher not get mad so easily(Ms.Meehan) and for her to not Elementary teach like we"re 2nd graders. Villa Park Elementary • Some ways ousd could improve my educational exerience would be to keep mrs. rejero away from me. This would improve my experience because she is constantly finding every little thing and holding it against me and my friends. This is most unfair because she punishes my friends for no reason. Cerro Villa Middle School • expell gustovo PLEASE Cerro Villa Middle School • you need to get better english teachers also fire ms peronto and ms waldman (\ McPherson Magnet (6th- • This school is good but some of the teachers are good and some are bad but the 8th) school does have a lot of support by people but i don't like it because they are way to strict and we have to wear uniforms. the school is very very nice but some staff are mean like Mr erven he is way to disrepectful.
