Read what parents are saying about Harvest Ridge Placer AcademyThis school has been a GOD send after we had some issues at the local large public school. The school size is perfect, the kids are not just a number that gets lost. It really has a home grown feel but the education is amazing. The teachers really DO care about each and every student. The admin. is very receptive to parents input. The kids actually are kind to each other ! It has been such a delight and we have now sent our younger child here as well. They really have something special here :).
Posted by a parent on 6/6/2020This school creates a healthy enviroment for many different races as well a religion. Most teachers are effective, but my child has complained about a teacher that seem tho "like" overworking him and doled out projects and punishments like cop giving out speeding tickets on the highway.
Posted by a community member on 1/25/2018Placer Academy has been a wonderful school from humble beginnings with a forward-looking vision. Knowledgeable and committed teachers provided the framework for success, however, lack of diversity within the staff in terms of a variety of cultural backgrounds including the integration of male influences in the classroom and administration have derailed fulfilling their original vision. A pervasive and somewhat bureaucratic parent/staff culture has emerged within the past two years that has eroded the integrity of the school. Nineteen 5 star reviews is bias and withholds critical information from parents who clearly are looking for guidance and the reason they come to reputable sites like GreatSchools.
Posted by a community member on 4/10/2017School district appears to be driven as much by parent input as by regulation. Governance Council is forward thinking, productive, informed. Administration is open, direct, focused and diligent. Teachers are dedicated to differentiated instruction, set high expectations for students and then follow through with support to meet the expectations. The parent involvement is expected but also genuinely welcomed. The families whose children attend this school are motivated, engaged and effective on behalf of all of the students. No school is perfect but every challenge results in innovation at Harvest Ridge Placer Academy.
Posted by a parent on 3/30/2015Transferred over here from public school in roseville. I was very unhappy with the teachers treating parents as if they were a problem and decided to move forward with this school. BEST DECISION I COULD HAVE MADE!! 1st grade teacher, mrs Emerson and 3rd grade Mrs Green are incredible! They are organized, have high expectations of their students, & provide opportunity for the kids to excell. They truly care about the children and are willing to look outside of the box to help their children succeed ... This school does not give you grief when you take a trip and travel with family because they allow the child an opportunity to stay on top of their work with independent study for those days out. Most importantly my very unhappy child who is well behaved and quiet , suffered last year because of a deep frustration and discouragement with the teachers specifically said " I will never go back to that school ! I didn't know I could enjoy school and my teacher so much that I look forward to coming to school"

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSo thankful for this school! My son had the BEST first grade teacher this year and just flourished under her guidance. His test scores were way higher at the end of the year than the beginning and she took the time to really engage and pour into each student in her class to give them the additional attention they needed to thrive.Parent Review1y ago - Growing Brilliant Early Learning Center
