8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AveragePiute mountain has a great principle and Mrs. Sharman the Kindergarden/first grade teacher that retired this year was the greatest teacher I have ever meet for the age group she taught. But I have noticed more and more that the teachers don't last long. We have lost 5 at the end of last year, Three of which had only been there a very short time...Parent Review12y ago - Foothill High School
