Has tons of room for improvement beginning with teachers learning to respect students and treatment as they would like to be treated.
Posted by a parent on 10/27/2019This school is horrible. If your child speaks english this is not the school for them. They cater to spanish speakers which makes it hard for the english speakers to learn. They do not deal with bullying at all even though it was brought up to the principal and the school district.
Posted by a parent on 3/19/2019I feel bad for the student who attend this school because the quality of their education is horrendous and a waste of time. It is hard to learn anything when instructions are given in a different language and when it was brought up to the principal nothing was done about it. They have bullies just l
Posted by a community member on 2/7/2017I feel like I could write a book of bad things that has happened to my daughter and I at this school. Unfortunately she has to attend this school, hopefully not for long. The staff/teachers never have a clue of what goes on. One ex.y daughter went through recently i packed her lunch ine day, because
Posted by a parent on 6/17/2015If I could give this school one star or an "F" I would. So many bad things about this school to mention here. My daughter attended this school and for starters the teachers and school secretaries have no clue what their teaching or what events are happening at the school. Every call I made to verify

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughter’s experience at this school was horrible. She was bullied every single day by 2 boys. She would come home crying. Her dad and I went to the school and said something. What did the school do? Nothing. She was bullied since 1st grade, and nobody did nothing we had to move her to another school who did care about their students.Parent Review6mo ago - Oleander Elementary School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOur daughter went here since preschool on 2018 until now. Never have any issue. Teachers and office staff always update all of the information needed, especially now there's parentsquare; we can communicate directly to the teacher and even to the principal.Parent Review3y ago - West Randall Elementary School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe teachers here are top notch for an elementary school. They truly care about their students and try to teach them on an individual basis. They are not afraid to put in a little extra effort. I feel very safe having my children there and they like going there.Parent Review8mo ago - Date Elementary School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is not a good place to be for someone who is just starting a teaching career. The administration expects you to handle the most extreme students without any guidance whatsoever. The administration rewards kids for bad behavior from what I have seen. If you want guidance on how to start off as a good teacher early on in your career this place will do just about the opposite for you. This is was a bad experience for me and the administration is a joke here. Some teachers had the heart to help me here though.Other Review5y ago - Beech Avenue Elementary School

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMrs. Mower, the principal is AMAZING, she really goes above and beyond for all student and parents. She is always present, involved, knows every single student and is just a great person. As far as the teachers, I have yet to come across a mean, overly strict, nasty, or uninvolved teacher. They are ALL EXCEPTIONAL, on the same page, not too much homework, encouraging, and you can see all the kids happy to go to school. The school is clean, safe, free lunch for all students, always available, PTSA is active, and I REALLY LOVE that there is NOT a "bully", "racial difference", "language barrier", or "religious difference", or "stereotype" issue at this school. Students are regularly taught good character, good citizenship, and compassion to others. For Fontana School District, this is by far the best!But one thing i do hate is to drop off and pick up. Its too crowded.Parent Review8y ago
