If I am so bad for business then let us ask why Mr.Karatas and his boys do not follow through with there threats against me and take me to court? The truth he can't. He knows as well as anybody who works there that all things can be varified and the last thing they will ever want is for that to hit the news papers. At least two teachers which can be varified have spent time in the local PALO VERDE hospital. Are they safe to be alone with children. By the way the teacher who was locking kids in the closets was Turkish. Right now the school has mismanaged all the money that they have tken in from federal , state, and donation money by parents. Almost all of these Turkish schools are in the same boat. Gulen counts his money and our tax payers are being robbed. As a parent who donated money I would be very upset that everything I gave, all the time donated was in vein . Sonoran Science academy is fraud and was only designed to fleece the tax payers.

Post Reply Close By: Yaart (20 month(s) ago) You sound like a disgruntled parent. You can find any of this by using google which, by the way, is not a trusted source. I like your powerpoint... Exept for the fact that everything you said is untrue. And the fact that for some reason you can't seem to be able to use the powerpoint program barely at all. But this is beside the point. Why are you bothering to try to give the school a bad name? You are obviously not a student or previous student (otherwise you would know how to use powerpoint) so that means your either a parent of a kid who came and cried to you (You shouldn't listen to everything your kid says) or your some random person bandwagon jumping. Now all of this is fine and dandy except when you get to the real facts. How many students would this school have today if these allegations were true? Would not a student have complained at this point? (Except for the random case of a student who rightfully gets in trouble and blames the school) and where is your proof of all of this? All I see is a finger wagging in the direction of the school when in actuality the proof is in the opposite direction, in the form of high test scores, GPA, and students that go on to college. It sounds like your rooting for the wrong side. But less about the school, it seems as if I am the first to stumble across this power-point so after giving it a thumbs down I thought I'd say thanks for reminding our kids why to stay in school :) Saving.....
