Carson Valley School

Your school is OUTSTANDING!!!!!!! I saw the teachers engaging with the children from their hearts. I felt the positive energy as soon as I enter. You have worked very hard to create a place for children to grow, learn and be nurtured in a beautiful way! Keep up the great work!

I was a resident for a year. I can't say it was the BEST time of my life.... Nor can I say the it wasn't a good school.... I just remember being 6/7 and missing my mother so much, As I sit here writing the book about the first five years of living in Hollywood, CA called "The First Five" I finally had to write the Preface about my early years, which is why I am here now, had to make sure I spelled everything correctly. I will say that when I called them about 8 years ago for my records, they did get in touch with me and sent me everything they had from the archives. I will say some of the therapist and social worker notes were fabricated or overly exaggerated would be a better term. I can also say they kicked me out after one year because I had too much influence over the other children at such a young age, that I will attest to. Its been OVER 20 years since I've lived there so really can't say how the current conditions are. I'm sure you helped shaped some children's lives. Oh lastly old staff did contact me through Facebook and send me photos of myself from that era which was very healing and I appreciated it.

It's the worst place ever I was a resident. This place is here to set teens up for failure. All the staff want is there money and don't care about the kids whatsoever. I would never recommend my future kids or anyone else to go there. I wish it was better because the area is great.
