"I think this school is awesome. My kids both went to Bellair and now my granddaughter is going there. Some of the same teachers are still there which leads me to still believe the school is the best. I have had interaction with both the teachers and principal along with some of the students and the atmosphere is always refreshing. The students all appear to be happy and the staff and principal have always had nothing but positive ways to inprove the campus and are always willing to go the extra mile to make sure it happens. I cannot say enough positive things about the school. I know you would feel the same way if it was your child attending."

"This school has been great for our student. She started in kindergarten last year, is now in first grade. The staff and teachers care a lot about not only teaching but also about the overall welfare of the students. The new principal has a great attitude and is working hard to bring the community together with the school and encourage parental involvement. There is a very positive feeling that is being conveyed, and everyone is working towards excelling in everything about the school. The whole experience has been very good and is getting better. Nice school, great teachers, strong curriculum, positive direction from fresh new leadership."

"This school got a B from the ADE, but it's just barely a B and I can explain why. The teachers are poor and the discipline in the school is non-existent. This school does not attract top level teaching talent and your children will suffer as mine have because of this. On top of that, the previous principal was a organizational disaster. That trickled down through the entire school in terms of discipline and curriculum. The new principal is not off to a great start, either. This will be my kids' last year at the school as I'll be variancing them to either Sierra Verde or Legend Springs. Honestly I'd take just about any school in the district at this point. The only slight hat-tip I can give the school is to the longevity of their kindergarten teacher. She is a good teacher, but is given a sad excuse for a curriculum to get our kids through. My kid left kindergarten unable to add or subtract because they learned shapes for the first 4 months of the school year! When a 5 year old is bored in kindergarten you're doing it wrong!"

"This school has problems! The principal (The new Sue Clark, the last principal had the same name ironically) is horrible. She is just as big a bully as the others. She takes up for the bully's on campus and says they do it because they are being picked on. She doesn't take the time to get to know her students or parents on campus. She is a retired principal from the DVUSD and being paid through another company to come back and be the principal again. Double-dipping so to speak. The school has great kids, great staff, brand new PTA, great parent volunteers, and a great curriculum ( Core Knowledge) but their leader is poor! Beware..."

"I have had my 3 kids go there. They love it so much they will do extra things on off days so they can go back. They HATE missing any day, even if they are sick. I would love it if they would go to year round, my kids love it that much."
