It has been many years since I attended Summit Elementary, but I had a great time there. My 4th and…read more5th grade teachers (now retired) were amazing and inspirational educators. The playground has changed a lot, but it's still fun for all ages (my nice and nephew, 6 and 7, have a ball, as do I, at 24). The sign says no horses, no dogs, no fun, but people have been riding horses and walking dogs through here for as long as I can remember (when school isn't in session, obviously) and no one has ever had a problem with it. The grounds are also entirely fenced in, so as long as you check all four gates, you can let your dog run and play (supervised, of course) without fear. The playground features a soccer field surrounded by a track, but the gophers have rendered the track pretty dangers. Anything above a slow jog probably isn't safe. There is a basketball court, a handball court, tether ball, four square, a baseball diamond, swings, big toy - fun for all ages and interests. It's especially a great place to stop and have a break and a picnic if you're passing through Upper Ojai by car, bike, or horse.

As our daughter finishes up Kindergarten at Lincoln, I figured I would take some time to share my…read moreexperiences at this fantastic school. Sending a first child off to school is of course an anxious moment for any parent and I admit I was no exception. But my anxiety was quickly relieved; the staff, teachers and principal at Lincoln have been tremendously friendly and welcoming. Perhaps my favorite aspect of Lincoln is that it is a relatively small school. Within a short time after starting school, my daughter was known not only to her own teacher, but also to the other teachers on campus and even the principal greets my daughter by name as we arrive in the morning. They say it takes a village to raise a child, and Lincoln is a part of that village. It truly has a cooperative, community feel to it. I find this a refreshing contrast to larger schools where children can get lost in the crowd. Lincoln is also blessed with caring staff, a fantastic principal, and an excellent and hard working PTA. Does the PTA fund raise too frequently? Yeah, probably. I admit it got a bit tiring. But after seeing the benefits of not only ART, but also MUSIC, PE and a full time on-site nurse, I really came to appreciate the "extras" that are provided far beyond basic education. All of these extra programs come about though the tremendous efforts of the PTA. Next year I plan to be more involved in the PTA and hope that by helping out we can make the fund raising more effective and less frequent. In closing, I want to say "thanks" to all of those who clearly pour their heart and soul into the children at Lincoln. It is much appreciated.

Since governments cut education funding, things like the Lap-A-Thon are a great way to promote community-building and get extra money for school programs. Neither the PTA nor the teachers at Lincoln have demanded or even asked me to have my child participate in door-to-door fundraising. The school also places strong focus on art and does not seem to have overbearing attitudes about homework or learning in general. It has a "comfy" and "laid back" feel that kids will enjoy. I've not once had my daughter complain about anything regarding other students or teachers. And the school plays are great!

From math and science (his favorite subjects) to yoga, gardening and sports day - the school really strives to develop the whole child and their place in the world. And the camaraderie that the parents develop is great - the school board really does listen to the parents and it shows in the content of the monthly newsletters as well as some of the projects that we are asked to participate in to spruce up the school grounds. Definitely glad we are a part of this community!

Many years, the gym has also been the site of the Marketplace gift boutique. This year they moved the Marketplace to another venue, but kept the shuttle destination at the school. Parking is not that plentiful, but they had an overflow solution available. We don't live in the area, so aren't up on the school's ratings or general reputation. Judging by the Quonset hut style gym building, it's a historic campus. Situated in a largely residential neighborhood, it is away from the town's core, which makes it a good location for shuttle ride staging for special events.
