“As a parent deeply involved with Janson in the las 6 years, I notice that this year at Janson, we have the new dynamic principal, Mr. Gabriel Cardenas. He's new, young and inexperienced, but he's outperformed all of his predecessors combined. He's brought in activities from Boys & Girls Club for physical education, and it was well received by students as well as teacher. He orgarnized an excellent Public Relation presentation at the school open house. In addition, he and his staff pulled together to organize the RTI program to assist academically the underperformed students. There are a lot more to improve academically and more challenges to overcome in the years ahead, but I think he's made a good start in the right direction. Good luck to your Mr. Principal.”

“Janson school is a great school. However, not just Janson but all schools do not teach to learn they teach to take the CST or Star testing. This is a huge mistake. Teachers are there to assist students in learning actual material not to teach how to take a test. Teachers also do not encourage parent involvement. Parent involvement is critical at the grammer school level. During those precious years a child does not mind if their parents come to school. After 6th grade kids really do not want their child around. So parent involvement is benefits the child and parent along with the teacher. REC after school program is awesome.”

“My daughter is attending this school and she is in Kinder for 2009-2010. She enjoy the activities in school but as a parent I feel that the school is not as active as the other school. I think we can do so much more to improve the school academically and more support from teachers and parents. I give props to the teachers- they are doing a great job. But !!!! please at least have time to update the Janson website. The schedules posted was dated 2007 and it's already 2010...so simple things like this can help the school. Us parents just want the best education possible for our kids !!!!”

“Janson is a very good school. It has begun to have sports. In the mornings on Mondays they have a weekly assembelies. They pass out certificates to students who have done well and was positive. I believe that people who have been going to Janson are lucky. The teachers do their best to help the students succeed in their work.”

“Personally my opinion is I feel a great sense of disappointment for the children and parents and staff of this school. There is a lack of interest, support, and communication from the principal. We enjoyed being involved in our school activities for many years. He has taken the enjoyment out of being a involved parent.”
