    "The safety profile of this school needs a total overhaul. When a girl in kindergarten last year can be sent home with concussion and the parents were not even informed of any incident until the child exhibited symptoms that night and had to go to CHOMP, how does the school resolve this? By further not telling other parents when incidences happen to their children. Scary? You do not want to know what happens behind those giant juniper trees on the playground. And, what does the principal do? Nothing."

    "I am a student at River School and this is my 2nd year here after moving from another city. I came here at the beginning of 3rd grade. The education is great and people are very welcoming. Overall the school is great but WAY to much homework. In my experience some of the homework assignments are more difficult than what we do in school."

    "We have traveled all over the U.S./overseas, due to my job, and found Carmel River Elementary School to be top-notch in every aspect. The school truly focuses on building fundamental skill and provides an atmosphere of learning and enrichment. Excellent support from the community and PTA to enable students to experience extracurricular activities, which are truly out-of-this world! By far, one of the best elementary school in California and the U.S."

    "This school is fantastic it thoroughly deserves the great reputation. The principal is very fair and approachable. The teachers are extremely good. However, the parents are very disappointing, to borrow a phrase from a previous review "the club-like, cliquish social atmosphere" makes this school a very difficult environment to be in."
