What can I say about Old River Elementary? My daughter has been attending this school since 2nd…read moregrade. I have never had any issues with the teachers. I enjoy the functions this school throws. The school always seems clean, and I love how they include kids. For example, they have kids working the drive thru, opening doors, and saying have a nice day to parents. It's adorable. The only bad things I have to say are the traffic, parking and where the cross guards are. I can't explain it, but if you're a parent or guardian attending, then you know what I'm talking about. But all schools traffic is nowhere near to perfect. So we just gotta deal with it!

They bus kids in from all over the place for the Magnet, but the wait list is long, so sign up early (like seriously at birth) to ensure your kid a spot. My daughter did Transitional kinder here with Mrs. Furr, and this year tested at 2nd grade level in reading and 1st grade level in math. Last year I would pick her up from Magnet and she would teach me all about bats, snakes, the water cycle, insects, you name it. It was wonderful to pick her up everyday and see the happiness on her face. The teachers and staff really love the kids and care about their education and development. I can't say enough good things about the school. It is a wonderful and safe place to educate your child and I recommend it highly.

Not sure…read morewhat the lady's problem is but she needs to learn how to communicate with parents and people in a way that isn't sarcastic and belittling. It's a shame because she's essentially the face of the school but until she either fixes her attitude or they get someone with actual people skills in her place the image she gives the school won't be good. It also concerns me as a parent that if she talks like that to parents how does she treat or talk to the kids? Crazy that her attitude would be tolerated in an elementary setting.

My little girl chose culinary and gardening at Whitley Elementary. Yesterday was her first day, and there were staff at the front of the school with badges to assist kids and to answer parents' questions, which I appreciated. I am choosing to drop off my little girl every day, but they do have busses that will pick up the kids from their home school and take them to their designated schools, which again I appreciate. My little girl said her teachers were nice and the school served breakfast, lunch, and a snack. The summer camp program runs until July 26th, 8 am, till 5 pm, but kids are able to be picked up early, which I appreciate. I'm excited for her to have this experience, and I appreciate this school as all schools involved in these programs!

It's clear that student success comes first, both academically and socially. One of the school's greatest strengths is its outstanding staff. Lakeside has a great mix of experienced veteran teachers and enthusiastic newer educators who bring fresh ideas and energy to the classroom. Together, they are committed to helping every student succeed and reach their full potential. Lakeside offers students outstanding opportunities with facilities that are unique for a TK-8 school. The campus includes a beautiful auditorium, a gymnasium for athletics and activities, and a swimming pool that provides additional opportunities for students, families, and the community. These spaces help create a well-rounded educational experience beyond the classroom. The campus is well maintained, communication with families is excellent, and there are many opportunities for students to get involved through academics, athletics, extracurricular activities, and special events. The school has a strong sense of community, and you can tell that the staff takes pride in building positive relationships with students and parents. Lakeside is also known for its incredible community support. If you have the chance, don't miss the annual Lakeside Deep Pit BBQ, held on the first Sunday of May each year. It's a long-standing community tradition that brings together students, families, alumni, staff, and local residents for great food, fun, and fellowship. It's one of the many things that makes Lakeside feel like more than just a school--it's a true community. If you're looking for a TK-8 school in Bakersfield that values high expectations, caring educators, strong academics, and a family atmosphere, Lakeside School is an excellent choice. I highly recommend it to any family looking for a quality education and a supportive school community.
