Monte Rio Elementary School

Above average school with great student to teacher ratio.

My child goes to MR School and it is wonderful, they offer great garden, music and art programs. The lunches are free for everyone which saves us a ton of money. They offer a reading program to kids that need a little extra help and have a wonderful special Ed program. The teachers are very skilled one of them even worked for NASA!!! One of the best attributes is the teacher to student ratio. The combo classes really seem to create an ideal learning environment for for all academic levels. They have been extremely cautious dealing with C19, which I really appreciate. This school is a gem in the rough!

Just didn't provide the academic rigor I was hoping for considering the class sizes are small. No one seems to ever look into a problem. You can complain about something and even go to the board, but in the end no one will do anything about any of it. Not interested in moving forward.

Disappointed. I had hear this school was really doing well, but my experience this year has been troubling. My child spent way too much time on chrome books looking at youtube than actually learning. Complaining did nothing. I don't even think the principal discussed it with the teacher. I am pulling my child this year and sending them to a place where students are put first, not last.

Disappointed! I had higher expectations but I don’t see much care or thought going into educating kids. Also went for the amazing garden program and now that person has left mysteriously. Sad cause this school could be amazing. Why do the good teachers always leave and no one seems interested in keeping them?
