Rolling Ridge is an awesome place for kids to grow, learn and make friends! The parent participation is out the roof and it feels like you're visiting a group of friends when you volunteer in class or for other school outings and activities. All are very welcoming. The teachers uphold a high academic standard and instill good organization and responsibility from the start. I've put three kids through Rolling Ridge and I'm very pleased with the results in all areas. We love Rolling Ridge!!

Rolling Ridge is a great school and has been since the school opened years ago where I had the opportunity to be a parent of the school the first year of opening. Now, here I am many years later with another child attending and I am still please with the education offered at the school. The staff is friendly and supportive and best of all the teachers are interested in your child learning and will go the extra mile to help. Great school!

This is the best school ever. I have 2 children at Rolling Ridge. They started from kindergarten and are both in the GATE program. Their grades exceed my expectations. They both love going to school. The teachers and Mr. Wilson are the greatest. They make learning challenging and fun for the kids. The parents at this school are so involved, it really makes a difference. The PTA is awesome and provide so much extra for the students. I am looking forward to my 2 other children to attend Rolling Ridge.

We appreciate that are children are challenged and pushed in a positive way to go above and beyond the basic level of academics. 'The sky is the limit'.

Rolling Ridge has a high level of Parent involvement which helps the staff meet and achieve a high level of education. The administration tends to play favorites with those who provide service to the school. Overall a good school but be aware there are politics at play.

Plenty of parental/ pta support makes this a very good and engaging school for students. Teachers/ principal/ parents work together to make this one of the highly rated school in the San Bernardino county.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 California used the California Standards Tests (CSTs) to test students in English language arts in grades 2 through 11; math in grades 2 through 7; science in grades 5, 8 and 10; and history-social science in grades 8 and 11. Middle and high school students also took subject-specific CSTs in math and science, depending on the course in which they were enrolled. The CSTs are standards-based tests, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of California. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the tests.
