Read what parents are saying about Candalaria Elementary SchoolI would say this is a close-knit community with an incredible staff and PTA that supports other schools in the district with the money they fundraise.
Posted by a teacher on 2/5/2020Outstanding teachers! My children have excelled at candalaria. I only have one elementary aged student now and won't be leaving the candaliaria area until my youngest is done. I wholeheartedly believe this is the best elementary school in the whole salem/keizer school district.
Posted by a parent on 8/19/2017Candalaria definitely deserves an update to continue the positive feedback for 2013. I have one child that just graduated Candalaria and another that is currently in 4th grade. We moved into this area from out of state 2 years ago. All the teachers, administration, and staff have been very dedicate to the development of my children and have been very responsive. We love the "closeness" of this school. Comminity feeling. Parents are encouraged to be involved to whatever extent works best for the family. Great PTA as well, which is very important in times of overall economic cutbacks. We look forward to our 3rd child starting in Candalaria in 3 years!

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe curriculum and small class sizes are great. The overall environment is another story. Many students are railroaded out of this school for not fitting their mold, which is perfect appearing on the outside but lacking character and morals on the inside. There is no authenticity here. We watched it happen many times over. For a Christian school there is a serious lack of Christian behavior and attitudes. Some teachers are great while others are not, but the real problems are with the administrators. They have no tolerance for anyone or anything different and set a tone that creates an atmosphere of bullying from the top down. This school has a corrupted sense of Christianity that highlights the worst of human nature. I’m sorry to say it but we’ve found more Christian love and welcome outside of this school than in it. While you will not see much in the way of physical violence in this school, the discrimination and bullying from staff and administrators is echoed in the favored students. If your children complain of bullying from staff believe them and move on.Parent Review8mo ago
