Eastvale Elementary School

My daughter will be a new Kinder student in the 2013-2014 school year. I am an over-preparer so I was looking at the school website for information on how to prepare my child and get an idea of how the Kinder program works. I emailed the AP and she actually called me back. This was a delightful surprise. She gave me all the information I needed and invited us to attend the next open house to meet the teachers and tour the school. This school is ranked the highest in the district and their scores certainly proove this to be true. The AP, Mrs. Derus was very helpful, and informative. She went out of her way to contact me by phone, introducing herself and commending my preparedness. I look forward to being an involved parent at this school and the quality education she will receive there. :)

I had called this school for kindergarden admission inquiry for my daughter and the school administrative had a very bad tone and rude response. The administrative staff does not spend any time explaining the procedure. They can be good to prospective students/parents. Also they do not entertain any out of home school students et all even though we are residents from Eastvale and a mile from this school.

We have been at this school since it has opened, with my one of my children being part of the class that will have gone K-6 at this school. I do agree with the parent that says there is a parent that handles the gate in the am that sometimes is loud and very rude to the kids. The office staff is temperamental like a cat, so to speak at times and the principal needs to do more with appreciating the parents who help consistently. Academically, we are satisfied but all the school focuses on is the STAR testing and my older 2 were so stressed out from the pressure the teachers put on them. It's not always about the schools test score!!

There is one parent who is "guarding" the entrance to prevent kids from entering the gate in a safe process. She has kids going to this school, too. She will do personal chores in front of gate, which is inappropriate. She combed her daughter's hair and she will shout. This is not appropriate even though she might not be paid. But it is not fair that she allows her daughter to loiter around the gate!

I have two sons at Eastvale and I couldn't be more pleased with the Principal and teachers. The school is amazing academically and is top notch.

I called to inquire about availability and how to transfer my child there but little did I know that the office manager had a major attitude. I understand every district has different protocols and handles things accordingly and so I called to find out. Needless to say, I was appalled and shocked to be treated horribly and assume I knew answers. Instead of assisting me, I was given short and rude responses. I was amazed at how unprofessional this school handle inquiries. Sad to say, I heard wonderful things about this school but the staff sets the tone . I've lost respect for the corona-norco district and am looking into transferring my child to CVUSD.

I have two daughters and they both attended Eastvale Elementary from the date they opened the school. My oldest daughter has moved onto Raney Intermediates IB program and has been very successful in her scholastics. My youngest daughter still attends Eastvale and is currently in the 5th grade and she is doing amazing. I attribute their success to the teachers and staff at Eastvale. They truly care about their students and encourage them to be all they can be. I LOVE THE SCHOOL AND I KNOW MY KIDS WILL BE SUCCESSFUL BECAUSE OF THE TEACHERS AND STAFF THAT SET THE STANDARDS FOR THEM.
