Ever since I finished 8th grad this school district has gone through some major revamping. By the time I got to De Anza college they even beat out Cupertino and Palo Alto school districts. Mind blown. They did a good job of retraining teachers that have bad reviews from students and parents. Some of the bad teachers were even let go. After looking around and going around every school for an inspection, they did a good job of keeping their curriculum up to date. So much better than the antiquated stuff I had to see when I was a student here. For teachers that work here, they are highly appreciated especially during their retirement year. Your kids will get a quality education here.

Quite possibly one of the worst schools around. Poor math and science teachers, two exceptionally…read morehorrible teachers are Killoran and Verbrugge. Teachers like these two are a detriment to education and students. Grading happens so infrequently for assignments, weeks to months can go by after turned in. As a parent it is impossible to be proactive and actually assist your student prepare when assignment are never reported until final grades are reported. None of the teachers can even give a course summary of topics covered prior to the starting semester and act as if the curriculum is a national secret. Schoolwork is never sent home so you cannot even see what your child is learning, assist or even get a tutor because the teachers keep all work internal. It appears that the majority of work is now computer generated so the teacher can sit on their asses all day long and pump out AI generated assessments with out actually doing anything. The principals are equally derelict and will make every excuse under the sun to avoid making any real changes. If your child has to attend this school and you are concerned about their education, or college... run, don't walk to the exit. Good teacher are worth their weight in gold, unfortunately Moreland Middle School educators are worth their weight in crap. Both of my children have suffered from this pathetic excuse for education.

I am a Homestead High alumni from back in the day (way back to the 80s) and I am very proud to say…read moreI graduated from such a terrific school!! I had some wonderful teachers from Ms. Ybarra for Spanish to Mr. Pelton for English. Ms. Ybarra was a powerhouse - she was probably no taller then 5 ft. but had so much spunk and energy. She was tough, but she cared so much about her students. For the most part my teachers were wonderful, dedicated and truly cared about their kids. I knew even then that I was lucky to be there - it just felt right! I was involved in drama and Mrs Clarke was amazing directing our plays and musicals. She gave me a chance in The Diary of Anne Frank, even though I stuttered and had trouble during rehearsals. Once I got onstage I came through with a strong performance and it's all because of her belief in me. The fact that Homestead students have robotics competitions and computer classes is wonderful. It might seem common nowadays - but actually not all public schools are so lucky. I would go to Homestead High School all over again - my memories are wonderful. It is one of the best public high schools in the state and we are very lucky to have Homestead for our kids and our community!!

We couldn't be happier with our choice. Although it is located in Santa Clara, Eisenhower School belongs to the famous sought-after Cupertino School District. Recently, Eisenhower has received the title of California Distinguished School. This school has EXCELLENT teachers, and STAR test results speak for themselves! It has an active PTA and involved parents. My daughter LOVES this school. She truly enjoys learning here! She has friends and she feels in a safe caring environment. Homework and projects are in reasonable amount. She also loves the fun events that this school organizes, like Ice Cream social, Reading Under the Stars and so on. HIGHLY RECOMMEND Eisenhower School!!!

I would give it 5 stars to the school because they do have other great staff and programs but this teacher I would definitely not recommend her for your child's 5th grade teacher!!!!!! Highly disappointed in the way she acts as a teacher my self I know how a student should feel and how a teacher should be she is a big mistake I tried to switch my child but other classrooms were full if your child gets this teacher go directly to the principal and switch beginning of the year one month she was organized and nice after that you will see the difference!!!!

But if you are a parent at this school and have spoken/met with Eric Lewis, you would have never suspected that Eric would involve himself with such illegal activities. Whatever! My perception of this school will not be tarnished by this minor incident. This school is great. Two of my kids have or is currently attending this school. For the most part, the staff is friendly. The teachers that my kids have had were all exceptional teachers. I'm pretty sure that my third kid will also attend this school.

I can say that I'm writing this because we are so lucky that we MOVED away from Montague and soooo…read morethankful that my kindergarten student DOES NOT HAVE TO go there. Especially the fact that he got away from being in Ms Stuart's Kindergarten class. I swear if you don't want you kid to be BULLIED by a teacher , don't go there. She is so mean and so rude to the parents it's so crazy how long she has gotten away with it but we all know why, Mrs Goldberg. The principle everyone praises, but really she is the most fake person I'll ever meet. If you don't want your kid to be yelled at or to have them cry, don't go there. Ms Stuart and Mr Orozco really do put fear in your children. Mr Orozco made my son cry but then emailed me to make it seem that he was sooo great in math and he is a "wizard" but yet only not to have me get upset of why he is a "wizard" Geez I don't know maybe not yelling at my kid or others to get a damn answer right! They are 4th and 5th graders, relax!!! You can't talk to these supposedly educated people because once you leave, you kid gets the worst of it. Since they eat their lunches outside in the heat and cold I spoke up on it. After that my son was bullied by Mrs Goldenberg about where to sit. Is that really necessary? Like why couldn't she say all that to me, his parent. And let's not talk about the secretary who wears very inappropriate clothing and flirts with most of all the dads. Go ahead because some moms have gone to the office to let her know it's not ok. I Duno maybe after having her own baby she will understand. Anyways other questions, please don't hesitate cuz I will be honest unlike those people. Good written Montage

We immediately enrolled our kindergartener and haven't looked back since. He's already speaking in conversational Spanish now, after only 1 year! He also loves his teachers and learning. That says a lot. Traffic in and out of the school pickup can get hectic but, I think that's true with any school. I just park at a distance and walk up.

Had I known it was going to be this bad or if I had a choice of sending my child to another school I would have done so. So happy not to be returning next year.

I mean, there was no one dressed up as Michael Jackson, Madonna, George Michael or Mary Katherine Gallagher leading cheers at our rallies. Thinking back now, it was a good way to build up self-esteem in little kids. We were all treated as superstars and we learned to constantly give each other praises. It's scary to think how quickly time has gone by. Like it was just yesterday, I can still remember the little boy who used to chase me around our room during nap time in kindergarten, my 2nd grade crush, my 3rd grade pen pal in Portland, my 4th grade county book faire win, my entire 5th grade year devoted to living like ship crew on the CA Thayer, and my awesome win in the 5th/6th grade Class President race. Oh yes, I had dreams of being the first female President. I had so many fond memories of going to school here. I made wonderful friends, and amazingly still keep in touch with a few of them. My teachers were all fantastic. They always encouraged my passion for art, and I had so many opportunities to express myself creatively. Come to think of it, I don't think I'd ever been entered into so many county competitions and gotten so many awards for my art. My creative juices have definitely decreased over the years. Now, I have friends who have children who are in elementary school. I have 2 friends who are now teachers at Ponderosa. If you live in Sunnyvale near Ponderosa and have children, you can count on your children building a great foundation in education here. Make sure you cherish your time with your kids, because I can only imagine how quickly they grow up.
