    "I deeply regret choosing Marshall Lane for 5th grade. The used to have an excellent 5th grade teacher, but this year they chose to boot him down to the 3rd grade. So far this year there has been no homework with the exception of a tiny heritage report. The children are learning no history. Math is being taught at the 3rd grade level as they are still in review mode. There is no music and no art. My child is constantly being sent to PE, but is given zero challenging academics. The school is setting the kids up to fail in middle school."

    "My son went to Marshall Lane K-4th but we chose Rolling Hills Middle School for 5th. We made the right choice. Rolling Hills offers band and several after school sports programs, gives regular homework and tests, & offers online Power School where you can see all grades on all tests and homework daily. Rolling Hills also offers several field trips to 5th graders. My son found 5th grade math too easy so Rolling Hills principal worked hard to get him into 6th grade PreAlgebra and it's a good fit for him. Marshall Lane has a caring, smart and diplomatic principal and fantastic community events run by the PTA volunteers and hard working teachers, but little focus on academics especially 3rd grade and higher."

    "Marshall lane is a 5-star school for younger kids, K-3, because the staff is so warm and caring. However, for the older grades (4-5), the academics need to be more rigorous, and they are not. If possible, I would recommend parents choose a different school for older grades. (There is 1 teacher who challenged the kids academically, but he is inexplicably assigned to 3rd grade this year.) For instance, my daughter has math 4 times a week, with hardly any homework. However, she has P.E. 6 times a week. What the ??? The cluster math class does not work out very well either, because her math teacher is not her "regular" teacher. There is also little education outside of the STAR test topics. Hardly any art and no music at all. The younger kids have Music for Minors, which is singing, but at the 5th grade level, there is absolutely nothing. I have been extremely disappointed in the 5th grade program."

    "ML is a typical public school, with its emphasis on maximizing STAR (standardized testing) scores. With a few exceptions, there is not much exposure to subjects like Social Studies, art, music, science, etc because proficiency in those subjects don't affect funding, and it seems that even the cursory attention paid to music/art has dwindled even more over the past couple of years. Because ML is a public school, the teachers generally cater to the lowest common denominator, which leaves the brighter kids bored. The school tried to fix this issue with differentiated math classes, but IMHO, with mixed results. Usually the assigned math teacher is not your child's regular teachers, so there is no accountability. There is very little homework assigned, and nobody checks it anyway. If your child has issues with math, then your regular teacher has no knowledge of it and therefore no advice during school conferences. You can try to schedule a conference with the assigned math teacher, but good luck with that. She is already overwhelmed with her "regular" kids. The education for the young grades is excellent, however, because of the very high parental involvement at that age"

    "My children have attended the school for years. I welcome the new principal, but withhold judgment. She has not been at the school a sufficient amount of time. I do believe that she is taking control of the school. Too long has there been a hands-off approach to the PTA and the staff. The new Principal has been assertive in making the lunch healthy and instituting playground restrictions of what otherwise might be child behavoir that risks injury to children. The academics are by and large above-average across for the country and for California this school is stellar far exceeding what is provided by most school districts. CUSD, on the other hand, is a problematic district with its strange politics and questionable decisions to build undesirable structures. I suspect that scrutiny is warranted to determine if an unnatural nexus between local contractors and the district exists."
