Knolls Elementary School

Phoenix Ranch is an outstanding school. They give excellent care and education to children. Phoenix has been both academically and emotionally beneficial to my children. I would recommend this school to any parent who wants the best for their child.

I can confirm other reviews that describe the faculty not doing anything about bullying. My brother was unfortunately in a class with multiple faculty staff's kids and one thing you need to know is they protect their own over all else. My brother was ruthlessly bullied by their children from the Tovars to the Rasmussens and Robles'. If your child ends up in their children's classes just be warned now that they will allow them free rein to terrorize your children as they see fit. It was not until my parents actually threatened them with police action and a lawsuit that they stepped in to do anything to stand up for him, but it was too little too late. He suffers from PTSD from their children and never recovered from how awful the faculty and children of the staff treated him. These people don't care about your kids. They care about protecting themselves above all else.

Great school if you have the right teacher. Classroom sizes are smaller than public which can be a wonderful thing if your child is receiving positive attention and not so great if your child is receiving negative attention. There are several public elementary schools in simi valley that are quite wonderful and provide a comparable academic education without the hefty price tag.

Both my children attended St. Peter Claver Preschool in Simi valley. My daughter was in the 4 year old program last year. The teacher is outstanding! She delivered a strong academic, spiritual and creative environment for my child to flourish in. My daughter grew academically and emotionally by leaps and bounds under the loving guidance of the teacher. I would love to give this school five stars but the kindergarten and TK program are not as good as the 4 year old program
