Maybe on the few occasions that I dealt with them they were having "bad days", maybe they are a bit judgmental on what type of people they will be courteous to but; that doesn't excuse rudeness. Be professional people! Dealing with the public that is part of your job. I am not an overly sensitive person, I've worked in a similar capacity as they do, so I understand how dealing with the public should and could be; please treat all people as you would like to be treated. Each time I walked in a good mood and walked out feeling disrespected. Rude, Rude, Rude

ASSAULT ON SCHOOL GROUNDS ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL COVERS IT UP AND THE PRINCIPAL WONT TALK TO ME!…read morePlease be warned if your kids attend this school. I have continuously reported staff for abuse against my child. The principal Mrs. Walker will not allow me to speak with the staff members who have physically harmed my child as I would definitely cause them harm. New story, my son was assaulted at the school on their last day before winter break, it was reported, and somehow got around to me. I called the school and requested information as I was at work and my husband out of town. I received a call back from the assistant principal, who said that my son and I were lying. When I asked why he had a long scratch on his face, the assistant principal said she had didn't know what I was talking about and asked how I knew this information. I told her my son had a big red cut along the side of his face and was bleeding, which is why he was sent to the nurses office. She said she didn't see anything, then said it could've happened elsewhere. All in all, I got no answers. I will continue to push this forward and hopefully the district finally listens. I have photos and emails of the reports as I always keep receipts.

I am writing this review on behalf of my Grandsons and my family…read more My daughter attended this school back in 1996- 1999. She is now raising her own kids, and I have the pleasure in assisting her. From the day my first Grandson, was in Transitional Kindergarten, to present, has been a positive experience. He is now 3rd grade. He has had the fortune to have had Mrs. Faye, Mrs. Hansen, Mrs. Rain, (sp) Mrs Esquival, and now Mrs. Skeens. I have only positive things to say about this Murrieta school. My second Grandson, has Mrs. Airebear. Every body loves Mrs. Airebear!!! Especially my Grandson! I would especially like to Thank Leslie and Jaqui in the office for every single time we walk through their doors. They are helpful and very professional in all they do for our kids. Whether I call them on the phone, or present myself in person, great staff in the office holding this school together! Last but not least, I haven't met him in person, but, I have watched this man from the drive up lanes, from the parking lot, walking through the halls, at award ceremonies, flag days, jogathons, picking up and dropping off day to day, and he just stuns the life out of me. He is genuine and sincere about keeping our kids safe. He is Alta's Principal. Mr. Cooley, I hope I spelled your name correctly. You rock! My Grandsons and my family, say Thank You, for keeping them safe. Greatest school in Murrieta! You will not be disappointed. I am shocked that more parents have not reviewed this school. After all, our children spend over half their lives here. 20 million stars for ALTA Murrieta Elementary!

Ms. Caldwell and Mr. Coley have always gone above and beyond, with all the students they see on a daily basis they somehow manage to personally greet my kiddo and the fact that they are so invested in the kids here really shows. This school is safe, fun, and staffed with amazing teachers. We are so grateful for all the staff here who make this school the great place that it is.

Honestly, Murrieta Ranch Preschool is the best preschool we could have asked for! It's low turnover…read morerate among staff is a great sign of its nurturing and stable environment, perfect for kids to learn and grow. The teachers, like Ms. Doona and Ms. Lauren, are beyond wonderful - they're patient and caring. The place is a kid's dream school. Not only do they have four playgrounds that keep things exciting, but the kids also get to ride ponies, brush goats, and pet piglets! They also have some sandpits. You might find your child's clothes a bit messy at pickup, but the joy and laughter on their faces are so worth it! What's really cool is the monthly photo thing they do. I was told that by the time your kiddo graduates, you get this adorable album of all their preschool memories. My kid loves this place. Sometimes she even wants to stay longer when I pick her up early.

She felt included and cared about. She has always been pretty independent, but was still really scared about her first day. She has thrived there this year with her teacher and classmates. They have a wonderful Principal, VP, and Counselor who really try to bring the kids together with wonderful after school programs, band, and 4th&5th grade student leadership. My daughter is not on an IEP, so I can't speak to that, but they do have a great system in place if your child falls behind in grade level. I really like this school, I wish my daughter went to this school for all of elementary. I know she will miss it when she moves on to middle school this year. Keep doing great things Tovashal!

I convinced a homeschooling teacher friend to send her child too.
