Horrible school. I would give negative stars if I was allowed to. Let me explain why:…read more First of all, somebody I know has been bullied here and has been called fat, ugly etc. Also, these harmful words resulted into making her harm herself and attempt suicide. Second, most of the kids here are not real friends to others and gossip about other students to each other. I highly DON'T recommend this school because of the harmful words and actions of other students.

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.

As a former student at Antelope Hills Elementary, I can say that some of the staff can be cruel…read more I have two incidents I can recall while I was here. The first one was when I was in kindergarten, literally everyone was going behind the building, so I followed as a 5 year old child. The aide at the time yelled at only certain people and told us to put our clips down to red. In kindergarten, this is a big deal. Another incident I can recall was in 3rd grade at the library. I didn't know books at the time had built in bookmarks and I politely asked for the librarian to cut it off because I thought someone placed it there. She says to me rudely, "No!" and gave me a nasty look as she walked away. My brother also got bullied here for a while and they barely did anything. Other than those incidents and some more minor ones, school here was pretty fun and nice. Though, I heard one of the teachers here was a pedophile.

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.

Our experience at this school has been amazing!! My daughter came for her 5th grade year only, but…read moreimmediately she fell in love with the school, its teachers and staff. 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!

The lesson plans are clear and easy to follow. There is a lot of flexibility on when and how you do the homeschool work. The teachers are ready to walk you through anything. I convinced a homeschooling teacher friend to send her child too.

I have attended this school before and it isn't the best, why?…read more First of all, not to be rude, but many of the kids at this school are special needs. There is no problem with that, but if I'm being honest, they should make other classrooms for that. Second, I witnessed a fight happening at this school during my time here. One girl threw a punch and the other girl that got punched started bawling her eyes out. Another reason why I don't recommend this school is because there was the kid in my class who used to kick my legs under the table and spit on me. When I mentioned my classmate spitting on me to the aide in the classroom at the time, she just told me to wash it off in the bathroom. Another incident I can recall is that there was this group of boys in my class and they were extremely racist to me because I'm asian. They started mocking me in Chinese when I'm not even Chinese. They also were rude to me on my first day of school for no reason. I had fake friends here and some of the staff would you give you nasty looks just for staring at them. I DO NOT recommend this school.

All year last year I actually thought the VP was the Principal because he is the only person I saw all the time doing the duties of the Principal, having contact with the kids and parents. Don't even get me started on the lady in the front office. I just don't understand why people are so unhappy working when there are so many people unemployed looking for work. Many people would love to have her job and would enjoy coming to work everyday, why can't they find someone like this. All the other schools I've been too, the people working there are very happy and helpful, they are excited to have a job and get out early and have every Holiday and Fur-low day off. A major grip I have is that it seems that there is a lot of favoritism going on with the kids and their performing arts. For example when they do shows on/off campus, they have some kids singing a set of songs or one song by themselves when NO other kids where given an equal opportunity to audition for that spot. The teachers that are running the performances are putting their kids, or kids they know or like in the show with out giving every child at that school the opportunity to try out for it, it is not fair to the other kids; every one should have a chance to try out for these opportunities as well, and the best kid should get the chance? After all, I thought this was a performing arts type school, all these kids should have equal opportunities, regardless of who their parents are or who they know at the school.
