Valley View Elementary School in Rocklin, California

“Valley View elementary has a great staff of teachers, principal and support staff. It has an effective PTC that donates money to school improvements and the arts. We have a parent-volunteer run Art Docent program, as well as an additional art program 'VAPA'. They offer music to 4th grade and up, incorporate dance into the fantastic PE program, and extracurricular sports on campus (volunteer-- but by our wonderful PE coach Mrs. Rabe). The teachers support these art and dance programs by allowing the students to participate in them during class hours. How does this effect learning? Well, just look at our state test scores!!”

“The test scores say it all! What an incredible school. It delivers the results - superior teachers who care about the kids, and the parental support that every school / student needs. The PTC has been involved with things I never thought would be in the PTC scope, and has prepared for and anticipated loss of funds thru state and district budget cuts. From top to bottom a top-notch school!”

“I think that Valley View has the most compassionate and exceptional principal, teachers, and office staff around. They work together to ensure that the students follow the disciplines of learning, community and self. There are so many additional educational and extracurricular avenues offered that enhance the elementary school experience. It is common practice to see teachers supporting and volunteering at every student and family event. Valley View provides an environment where every student can thrive to his or her potential. I LOVE THIS SCHOOL!”

“We moved from the bay area several years ago where our kindergarten child at the time was at the top of the class. When she got here, she was at the bottom! They quickly got her up toward the top again and all of our children have exceled here. This school does an excellent job.”

“The teachers are hit and miss. I can speak highly of Mrs. Schuett. Admin staff is absolutely horrible. Office clerk is in absolutely wrong position, there are so many people that would and could do 100% better. She is extremely rude and a few other words. Principle is a nice guy but a push over to his office staff. Funds need to be spent more wisely!”

“I have two children attending Valley View Elementary. We have been at Valley View for the past six years. I am very impressed with the dedication both the teachers and administrators show for the children in our school. I have personally experienced how this school takes a personal responsibility for each and every child in ensuring they have every opportunity to grow and thrive. Our school has a very active volunteer community and PTC which has spearheaded several critical improvements to our school. We are a Distinguished School of California, and my children are receiving every opportunity to succeed thanks to our Valley View family!”

“I have had a child at Valley View since it opened (2001). There has been almost no turnover in staff, and as a result, it really does feel like an extension of your family. There is a never ending list of parent volunteers. It is a great school. My children are far above their Sacramento counterparts, and I know 90% of it is due to the teachers, the school, and the programs offered. (10% is me!)”
