"Great school with amazing teachers and the best principal out there. They really care about helping kids learn and use creative approaches for all levels of learning. Does have an active GATE cluster group. Student Council and PAL for kids to be apart of. C.V. has smartboards in all classrooms, and new computers in the computer lab with excellent teachers in the computer lab who are a source of knowledge on educational, fun websites for kids. PTA supports Meet the Masters art program and funds for the librarians. Accelerated Reader program and Study Island are great programs the school uses. Upper grades do an amazing job preparing the kids for jr. high (check w/ RSM intermediate school to see their take on the different elementary schools and how their kids come prepared for jr. high). The Principal is very friendly and cares for the students. Don't write off C.V. because of it being a Title 1 school. Look into how the extra fund are being used to impact all students attending C.V. Again Great school!"

"Cielo Vista is an excellent elementary school. All three of my children attended this school and were more than prepared for junior high. The staff is top notch, the children are dedicated and our current principal, Dr. Peterson is very hands-on and making positive improvements to Cielo Vista every day! I encourage you to check out this school and even make an appointment to speak with Dr. Peterson about your child's future at Cielo Vista. You will be impressed!"

"We are new to the city of Rancho Santa Margarita since summer of 08'. I found the ladies in the front office more than helpful with registering my three children, 6th,1st and a kindergartener for school. All 3 of my childrens teachers are excellent! They are friendly, knowledgeable, and great with their classes. Anytime I need to speak with any of them they are always available. On a daily basis you see and greet the principal and vice principal, and they have lots of staff on hand for the children before and after school, and during recess & lunch times. My children love this school, and I couldn't have moved into a better area with a great school!!!"
