Casa Grande High School

We have two children who attend Spring Hill. Our youngest started in pre-K and continues to attend at Grade 1, while our eldest started at 5th grade and now attends the new middle school at 7th Grade. Both of our children look forward to going to school every day, love their teachers, are excelling in academics, and have gained a maturity, independence and respect that one does not see as much in peers attending other schools. We are really happy that Spring Hill expanded in 2017 into a middle school program because they are a great school and nothing of the same caliber is offered in Petaluma. The best way I can describe Spring Hill is that it's a real community - supportive administrations, teachers, students, parents, etc. And by real, I mean real - not just talk. You see it in every day actions of everyone involved in the school. Our children are not just getting a great foundational education, but the teachers tailor curriculum to each student. Our eldest was a little bit behind in math skills when he first attended, so his teacher focused on getting him a stronger math base, and now he is performing polynomial algebra and geometry as a 7th grader (I wasn't introduced to that level of math until my sophomore year in high school). Our youngest wants to read to us EVERY night and is excited about doing homework. Spring Hill doesn't send the kids home with an excessive amount of work - it feels just about right for each grade level. My only critique is that sometimes the school will over communicate for our taste - some parents want to know everything and what to expect. Great for the parents who want to know all - but after your children have attended the school and you are dialed in to the community, we pretty much get it and don't need to attend an evening informational meeting about what school will be like at the next grade level. Overall, a wonderful school and we feel lucky that our kids and us are part of it!

Harvest is such a supportive and structured atmosphere. The staff are always smiling and welcoming. My children can’t wait to go to school and are involved in activities. I would absolutely recommend this traditional learning environment!
