Traditional schooling was just not an option for our family and we feel so SO SO grateful that the staff here has worked diligently to provide a school that offers a more tailored and down-to-earth educational approach. What we really appreciate is how many instruction options WT offers, you can choose from 4 days a week full day, or 4 half days, or 2 full or half days. But what we love the best is the overall knowing that our child is well looked after and generally loved as an individual all the while receiving an education that values the environment and the overall well-being of children and connecting to the two through meaningful and relevant activities in the classroom. If you are looking for an alternative to traditional schooling please know your child will be well cared for here and will actually love learning!! We LOVE Willow tree!!!!

My daughter graduated last year and has been well prepared to head into high school. My son has been a student since the first grade and has been completely held and nurtured as a learner and a child. The teachers are well trained, the curriculum is rich and diverse, and the leadership team is responsive and caring. It really says a lot about the community that it has stayed cohesive through many challenges over the years with their location and the pandemic. Bethany and her staff are true beacons of strength and care.

    Stay far away from this school!!! I received appalling, disrespectful treatment from the moment I…read moreenrolled my son. Everyone from the receptionist Mrs. Magaña to the principal Mrs. Taitano acts like they're above you and won't give you -- a paying customer -- the time of day. The receptionist was bilingual and since I also was fluent in Spanish, I chose to speak to her in Spanish. She promptly race-shamed me to insist I only speak in English. I'm an American citizen and I didn't appreciate the rude and racist treatment. However, I tolerated the treatment for the sake of my son. Next, my son missed a few assignments and I hired a tutor to help him get caught up. I asked the teacher, Linda Hayek, for his missed assignments via email and she never responded to me. We later asked again for the assignments, involving the principal and she nastily retorted that I was "making up stories" and that I had not asked for the assignments and not received them. I have an electronic paper trail to prove I did ask the teacher for them. My husband was upset at how they were treating me so he responded to the principal in an assertive but respectful tone and we received the most unprofessional reply from the principal. Rather than supporting our son and helping us create a plan to help him succeed, they kicked him out of the school. At some point during this exchange, they said we could leave and receive a full refund, but after they kicked us out they only refunded us our security deposit and said they would give us the rest "later" (yeah, right...). I insisted they keep their word which was also expressed in written form. These people do not care about children's education. They only care about money and a hypocritical form of piety that was absolutely disgraceful. I am a catholic, but I am ashamed to have served at, donated to, and enrolled my son in a school with such ungodly leadership. This was not a one off case either. My friends enrolled her kids here and also received the same rude stuck up attitudes and lack of support. Stay FAR AWAY!

    I enrolled my son in the Preschool class half days, a few days a week, to test the waters. My son…read moreloved it so much he was asking to go to school ALL the time so I changed his enrollment to all five days since he was enjoying it so much. My family and I are so pleased at his development and his love and affection for his classmates, teachers and staff. Everyone at the school is so inviting and takes an honest, pure interest in each child and family. We have felt welcomed since the day we took an initial tour to now several months later. We have enjoyed the school and church activities immensely. We hope to be able to keep him enrolled as long as possible. I highly recommend St. Peter's The Apostle Catholic School.

    I was pleasantly surprised when I got Hunter into the Charter school he has attended since the…read morebeginning of the school year. Less than a month after he started to Martin Luther Kind Jr. Middle school; I realized the repetition from my older son's trepidation during middle school. It goes from 6,7, and 8th grades, and it's so bland and overcrowded that it's a miracle now student s aren't falling through the cracks. Between the standardized esta after standardized tests; there's hardly any time for our kids to actually LEARN; and the amount the want you to know to show proficiency in a grade is at least a C-... I remember the minty taste of our class' mint flavored finger paste. Good times...im surprised I never got myself sick! Speaking of sick...we've had so many emergencies come up since moving that what little savings I have is gone. My slumlord landlord charged me for the ENTIRE cleaning and paint/mail patch/etc: fee even though I'm pretty sure I replaced all of the screens in the house myself, did drywall work and patching; perimeter all of the walls and whatnot, paid for installation of services, AND I have receipts from less than a year ago stating all of the items I would fix because they kept dragging their feet. This is somewhat remarkable, considering the fact that the husband who is the owner told us not to worry about doing anything except for sweeping out the house and making sure that things were dusted off because they were planning on doing a whole bunch of demo. However, they did do quite a bit of demo, to the point where I went into the back to make sure I hadn't forgot anything and I had to take pictures because it was so filthy and covered in dust and debris and drywall and chunks of things and the floors were halfway ripped out everywhere and they just left their machinery.. However, the floor was coated in thick white sawdust from the pieces of her got a ring put in and the house itself looks fine except for when the shower started draining again and it would have a very bad drip all night long so I finally decided to call the warranty company but it also run by them the fact that these people have not been keeping up on their warranty and have us let things slide in the house that could've been fixed for a $60 calling fee wind up spending $150 just trying to figure out what was wrong with our pipe out here so it's been a painful move and bills keep popping up but I don't expect them to but I'm hoping nothing else goes wrong until i can see for myself. There is a big piece of flooring in the curve of the house that is weighing down on itself - and the screens I replaced just months ago are now looking like they made need to be replaced again. I kept a detailed list when they came back after not doing a single thing they claimed her husband would do "at his earliest convenience." Instead I had to hire their own under the table maintenance man to help he fix all the random things that needed to be done. But it's a house, right,? It's hard to reconcile that such a huge item it's not worth its weight in shelter and happiness! It certainly is, but I do know there are better deals out there!

    I've been working at La Paloma as an Educational Assistant in the IBI department for the past 4…read moremonths and it's been an incredible experience. The school is so welcoming and the staff is warm and friendly. Most of the teachers here appear to all be friends or related in some form, so there's a lot of camaraderie. I guess this is a benefit of working in such a small community. In my experience, the staff genuinely care about the education of the students and try their best to accomplish this task, despite the difficulties with the current CORE exams and expectations. It appeared to me that a lot of investment is made in the materials and equipment that the students have access too. I've seen iPads, laptops, computers and the use of Smartboards in the classrooms. Overall, I've honestly enjoyed the atmosphere and the team spirit displayed here at La Paloma Elementary.

    OK, so as many well know, I'm not living in my hometown anymore. Bailed for the Bay Area, and when…read moreI was down to my last few days in San Diego County, I started to get very nostalgic. Between going away parties and work responsibilities, I spent time visiting the places I'd encountered along my life's path that made ol' Ruggy the man he is today. Some of those places include: -My little league baseball field -The Tubs in La Mesa -The house in O.B. where I lost my virginity -The original 91X studio location on Pacific Highway (well, maybe the TJ studio was the real OG) -My first apartment after moving away from home in Bankers Hill -Lips -Fallbrook High School So, essentially, hot tub parties, 17-second one night stands, smacking baseballs and high school has helped shape me into the Ruggeford H. Joesten that (some of) you love so dearly. Well, at least the Ruggeford H. Joesten that my parents love, I suppose.... After visiting my grandparents in Fallbrook, I couldn't help but remember my high school days. I grew up about 1/2 mile from the school, and after being home schooled for my entire life, I decided that high school was the time to spread my wings. So, really, my first experience with public schooling was 9th grade. Talk about a complete nightmare, huh? It's easy to bag on our small avocado laden town, but I really can't imagine growing up anywhere else. The stoners, burnouts and bums I've kept in contact with hated Fallbrook High, but they all turned out to be weed salesmen, tow truck drivers and squeegee supervisors at Ten's in North Park. The people I know that really appreciated Fallbrook turned out pretty well, though. It's really like a small, Midwest farming town that happens to be 25 minutes away from the beach. A pretty cool mix, if you ask me. After walking through the closed campus like a total chester last Friday, I can't help but remember playing baseball on the bitchin' baseball field, smoking cigs by the handball courts, parking illegally in the teachers parking area (sorry) when nothing else was available, rolling into school 45 minutes late, then cooking myself breakfast with Mr. Koch in cooking class every first and second period in my senior year, and more. It sounds like I was a complete asshole, but I considered some of the school's enforcement officers and teachers friends, so somehow, I always got away with those shenanigans unscathed. The teachers at Fallbrook were classic. I strolled past Mr. Port's classroom, Mrs. Hellams old digs, Mr. Rupp's room (even though I despised that dude), Mr. Howard's room, and a few others. I've actually kept in touch with a few teachers from my high school days, which has to tell you something about the individuals making this school what it is. I even remember Lolo, the gangster security guard that kept shits on lock. He was quite the character. When you're 17 or 18 years old, it's pretty standard to ask your parents why the hell they decided to move to Fallbrook. But after almost a decade of being away, I can't tell you how much I'd love to return someday. There's literally nothing going on in that town... and when I've gotten sick of the hustle and bustle of city life, that's exactly how I'll like it.

    save yo kids, there's other high schools out there....there are some REALLY awesome schools that…read morethey can go to, some of the teachers are high-key mean. my teacher got mad at me for breathing and made me move to a different desk.
