"My daughter goes to Alice Birney Elementary School. She loves her school. I really think this school's principal is excellent. She recognizes all students and their parents. She is so friendly and attentive to all her students and parents. This school offers IB program ( International Baccalaureate primary year), which teaches students for globalization, inquiring, and knowledgeable. I also need to mention that our PTA has been doing great job!! Although San Diego schools have budgets cut problems, Our PTA manages a lot of fun raisers to get funds for Birney school. Finally, I am glad for my dauther to go to this school."

"My son will be going into first grade this year. His kinder experience was excellent. He has ADHD and is on medication. They were very good about understanding his issues, adjusting the expectations and meeting his needs as an individual. Miss Amanda- the principal- is fantastic. She's strong, caring, direct and dedicated. I highly recommend the school. We need to be more involved ourselves, but the overall parent participation seems to be growing."

"Birney's principal is top-notch. She and the teachers show incredible enthusiasm and dedication for their school and students. There is a trickle-down effect and students test scores are rising year after year. The IB curriculum is fantastic! With classes like PE, theatre, music, dance, Spanish, computers, library, and even a beautiful and bountiful garden, it's no wonder the kids have smiles on their faces!"
