I have written so much please read on in to the comments below. I am very disappointed in this school. Most of all the way things have been run. The school is blaming the economic crisis for low enrollment, that's not it at all. I will tell you what it is. As a parent here at the school , we have been
... Read more here for almost 3 years and the management has made the poorest decisions. There is a strong lack of communication between parents and school issues. The teachers are great, don't get me wrong. Its the management and corporate. I have witnessed this school promise other parents at the last minute, to have a 3rd and 4th grade class and would not close it down when concerns arose because of the amount of children enrolled in the class. That was in July. School started in August. They gave notices to those parents in Oct. that the class will be closing and you have 30 days!!! Read less

The Phoenix School is above and beyond what I would expect a school to provide. There have been a lot of changes over the last few months, but all seem to be working out wonderfully! The staff and teachers that are left are there for a reason, they are awesome! There is a new district manager, who

Enrollment is low . . . BUT the academic curriculum is still strong regardless of the current low enrollment. I have compared the curriculum to local private & charter schools and it exceeds in all subjects. If you are looking for strong math, reading and spelling programs this is a great school.

She offers homework time from 3:30-4:30pm for all her 1st graders everyday. Also, the school prides itself on its yearly Science fair which begins at the K-1 level. Read less

Economic hardships has effected enrollment, but the school is determined on ensuring an excellent academic program. Kindergarten is at the K-1 level preparing all children for 1st grade. Ms. Michel is a great K-1 teacher w/ an awesome program made of organization, work centers and discipline. The

The summer program is very organized and priced reasonable compared to other local summer programs. If you want daily activities & structure this is the summer school you should pick!

I have had such a horrible experience with the management of this school. The principal and the corporate office don't seem to care at all about the children. This has been such a dissapointment since the teachers at the school are excellent. The school was running great until last year when a new principal

The principal was dishonest and uncaring towards my daughter and all the other students. The school never seemed to have enough supplies, for the amount of money we spend the school shouldn't have run out of pencils or snacks. My concerns were swept under the carpet. I am not surprised that many of the teacher walked out after last year. It is such a shame that this happened. Read less

I have sent both of my children to this school for preschool and kindergarden. The oldest was then introduced to the public school system for 1st grade. He excelled in Math and Science since Phoenix pursued those interests in him at a young age. He is above average level in all subjects due to a great

My child attended The Phoenix School in Rocklin for 3 years. The education is great with the exception of the Spanish and PE programs. PE is not organized since they did not have a designated teacher all the time. The teachers are great. The problem I had is the lack of care for the children's well

The school keeps down-sizing and it is not because of the teachers or the education. Parents concerns are brushed off to make sure they are saving money. Read less

Wow! This school has an excellent balance of academics, extre-curricular, and parent involvement. My son started 3rd grade here and it was like he was lit on fire with enthusiasm for school. It is an older campus (1950/s) but the energy that the students feel on campus is reflected in excellent test
