I endured bullying and thought the educational quality was only so-so. The administration was focused more on money than providing an adequate education; their lunch prices were outrageous at $8. In comparison, I now attend DV and lunch is just $1.35 from Chick-fil-A! This school may think they are top dogs but they're really just average. They need to place more emphasis on the arts, music, and English classes rather than forcing kids into STEM or math classes; plus everyone was expected to be in AP and honors courses even though teachers seemed nice enough.

After touring the school and filling out an application, I was unable to finish it due to not living in AZ yet. When I did move, I attempted to contact the school multiple times to come back and complete it but they never answered or called back. Two months later they sent me to collections despite my child never even attending and me not providing them with an Arizona address. Despite their generally good reviews, I feel their service towards me was terrible; still can't get them on the phone. However, thankfully the billing company they hired is addressing the issue of being billed without ever enrolling my kid. If you have children looking for a school, take them to Kyrene – at least they answer their phones!

Oh Yes Very Nice School

It takes an excessive amount of time to drop off and pick up children from school, creating a parking nightmare. If the school implemented different schedules for groups of classes, it could help to alleviate the traffic congestion.

Quality education with a focus on STEM and preparation for college.
