    "We have been at this school for many years and I am really disappointed with the education my children have received. It may be all CA schools, or just IB schools, but instead of teaching the basics, this school wastes so much time teaching about things that are way over the heads of most 8 year olds. Why have a child present a report on Anne Frank when children haven't even learned about the history of the war or even where Germany is? And last year my children sat through several hours of presentations about how t save our oceans. Really? The school day is short enough as it is. I don't think a 6 year old needs to suffer through 5 hours of "don't litter." This school has some good teachers, but under the current leadership, the focus on IB has prevented the children from learning basic facts needed to excel at school. Also, there is a huge push for the teachers to teach what is on the CSAT test, so don't be fooled by this schools high ranking. In San Diego, we all have a choice on where are children go to school. I am choosing elsewhere next year."

    "Getting more frustrated by the day having my children at this school. The principal has been one of the most difficult people to work with I have ever met. Unless it involves the IB Program, she doesn't seem interested. She wasted money on sending teachers to Hawaii for IB training this year and now the district is not even going to be funding the IB program. All that money wasted, and we parents are suppose to believe she didn't see the budget cuts coming? Selfish, just selfish!"

    "The experience at the school was overall good. I seem to have a little problem with the experience of some of the teachers. I am a little concern of how well prepare is my child for middle school."

    "This school has been great for my two kids. The teachers have been outstanding, but it does appear that they are truly overworked. Also, 'special needs' children are placed in classrooms with 'normal learners.' This does distract most children and impedes the learning process. I feel that I do have to supplement my kids' education at home to keep them up to speed. The principal is nice, but is too wrapped up in the IB program and not focused on what is important...education."

    "We have a child with special needs and we had a very hard time dealing with this school. The school made no attempt to deal with special needs concern and focused thier efforts on transferring our child to a 'special needs school.' The prinicple and teacher were difficult to deal with and it seemed like they had a general distaste for the hassle of dealing with special needs concerns."
