    "Aurora Charter School has a very good reputation within the community it serves. The school enrollment continues to grow each year. The students feel safe and nutured. The parents are very satisfied with the school. The parent committee plays a big part in getting other parents involved. The school board is made up of parents, teachers and community experts. It is an excellent learning and working environment."

    "The review "part of Aurora school for many years" says it all. The strategy of the administration is to divide and conquer. Each parent is told that they are all treated the same, and they are the only ones who complain. No parent groups are allowed, no directory of students is given, all to make sure that parents don't try to stand up to the autocratic regime. Parents are told that there are many schools they can choose from for their children if they don't like it. "...it does not give anyone permission to speak badly about it..." This is also the position of the principal. You can speak only to her, she is dismissive and abusive, and forbids you to speak with other parents or organize a meeting with them. You are told that it's all you, and that nobody else agrees with you. Sadly, it is hard for most of the students to leave, because they have a difficult time with schools that teach in English. After 4th grade, though, most students are gone."

    "I would not recommend working at this school. The director abuses her power and intimidates staff. She punishes unfairly; one time the alarm went off because I had not properly taped students' work to the wall. She canceled my class's field trip because of MY mistake, even after I offered to pay the fine for it. She said it was a better consequence for me. Poor kids."

    "I would recommend this school to everyone. The vision of the school is first rate to all children. When the school exspanded to a middle school I was elated knowing my son could grow with the program. The hard work in keeping my son engaged to learn is amazing. I hope more schools could be like this one."

    "I woul not recommend this school. The principal abuses of her power, when parents come to see the school and know about the system, she treats them in a very kind way, but as soon the kid is enrolled she starts changing rules, giving more homework and pushing too much students who are in lower level, she doe not really know how to be close to latino culture. This is not a school it is just a family bussinessess, almost all the prncipals family receives a salary, some of them for doing nothing."
