Read what parents are saying about Pioneer Elementary School

There is no diversity at this school and the curriculum is not up to date. The teachers are not well educated at all and there is a discrimination issue. Training must be conducted to avoid biases and that has not been completed by the Escondido district.

1 out of 10. Horrible school where discrimination and racism is shown as acceptable.

Horrible. Attending this school as a child really did horrors to my childhood. Looking back I can see where my self esteem began to dissipate.

Again I write.... horrible. My teacher aid would pinch my neck till I about cried out in pain for talking or goofing off. A 5 yr old! Beat with a paddle all the time.. I was an expressive sensitive child! Not welcome in that environment. I suffer till this day the damage started at that school. Tell me to build my house on a rock!!! They crumbled my rock, turned it to sand and now at 50yrs old the tower I built is unstable. Thank you. So very Christian. Made me question faith before age 7 even!!!! I can go on. Horrible time. Imagine a 5 yr old with such anxiety that he had open sores around the mouth from nervous licking and I used to grunt and make throat sounds as an uncontrollable tick!!! Predisposed me to future problems. Those things started when I started kindergarten there. Terrible.
