Being a military family, my children have attended several schools. Evergreen is the best so far! The previous principal was always present and interacted with the students, parents and staff regularly. The current principal I am sure will do just as amazing since she was an amazing teacher. My son said the " the best teacher" he's had yet. He explained that she constantly challenged him to reach his potential, which he didn't always like but obviously appreciates now. There is no bullying at this school, no violence and plenty of room to be yourself. !

My brother and I both attended this school and now I am happy to say I have three young children one of which is beginning pre-school this year and one of which is entering kindergarten. I have been very pleased with their preschool program. This is truly a great school with great teaching staff. I wouldn't let my kids go to any other school

I think this school is great!! The Principal is there for all the kids in all manners that are needed. He is very kind and helpful and more than willing to help wherever or whenever the help is needed. My daughter has been in a couple different schools due to moving around and the principal at this one is very awesome and the kids respect him because he respects them..

My 6th and 8th graders started attending this school and have been so pleased with the caring staff and student body. No bullying at this school! Everyone is kind. I'm amazed and thrilled. They have a great curiculum that allows students to work at their own level. My son's grades have improved with the added help he is getting here. I feel like my kids are allowed to be themselves, not pushed into the fast lane. The staff is always willing to talk to you about anything and even encourages it.

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.

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.

The different student groups are identified by the California Department of Education; if there are fewer than 10 students in a particular group in a school, the state doesn't report data for that group.
