GreatSchools Rating
Parent Rating Average
Love Starr King! Caring teachers and staff (including caring principal and vice principals), ethnically diverse students/families, and a joyful school environment. I feel like my kids are loved, are learning, and are academically challenged. Parent volunteers are welcome in the classroom, PTO is active and open to ideas, and the school is communicative about upcoming events, etc. Teachers are also communicative about things going on in the class and responsive if you have any questions or concerns about your kids. The office can get a little busy at times (which makes sense for a TK-8 school) but it’s so great that I can take all of my kids to school together without having to do multiple drop offs and pick ups at different schools; so great to see them bond on their way to/from school as well. Also a shoutout to the after school safety team/plans in place; many staff help ensure students are safely getting to their vehicles. And the changes this year with adding the vehicle lines/cones has helped facilitate after school traffic as well (usually not too much traffic before school since drop off is pretty quick and after school traffic has been streamlined). Also great that free breakfast is offered before school and that there are free field trips and sports. One of the things that I like best about Starr King is that the kids all love each other; so beautiful especially for such a diverse school. Also for reading, they have UA (Universal Access) time where kids are placed into small groups with a teacher based on their reading level so each kid can have the support they need. There are also online games/programs to help your kids with reading and math (like iReady, Lexia, Frax, and Reflex) that they do at school sometimes and can do at home too. My kids are in Kindergarten and 3rd grade and we’ve been at Starr King since my oldest was in Kindergarten and we’ve been loving it! My son went to TK at Starr King last year too and had a blast. Also great that there are instructional assistants in many of the classrooms (especially the lower grades) instead of having just one teacher since younger ones often need more support. Thanks again, Starr King teachers and staff!
