Great school. Previous parent commented on the fundraising money and not seeing any improvements.

Below average. We donated the full amount but never see any improvement. We wonder where did they spend the money? I just can't say enough. I am sending my child to another school.

Our children have been attending Golden View for several years. We absolutely love the school. I am surprised to read the negative feedback left by others and wonder if there is more to their stories. I have worked in school districts around the country and feel Golden View goes above and beyond in many

The teachers range from very good to exceptional. We miss our principal who passed away in 2005. So far I am impressed with the new principal who was just hired. The curriculum seems flexible enough to work with children at different levels. My daughter is in the gifted program and is challenged constantly! We love Golden View! Read less

overall good school. I feel the ciriculum can be improved to support more of a reading and writing emphasis. Writing skills are overlooked in early grades. I feel my 4th grade daughter has not been guided properly to learn the necessary writing skills a fourth grader should know. High teacher turnover

Staff is strict, Unfortunately they loss their principal and are in a transition phase. Good computer lab but is taught by volunteer parents. Addditional help for kids struggling is scarce. Teachers could be more receptive to those who need extra help. I have enjoyed my time there but have struggled to find anything extraordinary about the staff and teachers and the ciriculum. Read less
