Iowa Street School

I love this school, my daughter starts two weeks before Thanksgiving and they were very welcoming. The principal is very nice and willing to help. He is very involved and knows the student. He is also very approachable. The teachers are good too. The 8th graders had a difficult year but the school was able to handle it successfully.

My daughter is now in the 7th grade, my son graduated from this school last year and has now gone on to high school. The skills he learned at this school have put him ahead of his peers, especially in writing. The school has a great community of parents and teachers working WITH each other to give their kids the best education. It has the standards of a private school with the benefits of homeschooling and public school all combined. I've seen at this school that ALL children are met at their level and given the attention and resources needed to be their best.

Iowa Street School is really two schools. One is the regular "classic" home school program, the other is called the "Core" program which consists of 2 days home schooling and 3 days in a classroom. I have used both schools and highly recommend both programs. If you would like to home school, the support, encouragement and resources of the classic program are invaluable. If you would like a mixture of a traditional classroom and home school, Core is for you! I must say that Mrs. Turley and Mrs. Fieri really know how to take a child from their current level and push them to excellence. I am amazed working closely with both how much time, energy, and love they both exhibit. They are both master teachers and your child would do well to work with them!!!! I have had a less then stellar experience with several of the other teachers, but feel I can help propel my children to excellence with the days they are home. If you feel you have the time and patience to try a home school or partial home school environment, you could not get a better support staff then either of these schools!

This school has some great teachers. All parents are involved with homeschooling their own children and some even volunteer for school events. Many children are welcome at Iowa Street School. Maybe yours will be among them!

I love,love,love this school. My son is challenged and learning and improving daily from his previous school. The teachers and staff are extremely accessible and it is a great enviroment for learning. Next year we will grow into Maie Elllis and it will be great. We have the best of both worlds, home school 2 days a week and regular school 3. A great concept that works.

We are thrilled with Iowa Street School! My fourth grader is in the CORE program and he is thriving academically. At his old school he often wanted to stay home and didn't like school, but now he's very excited about learning and never wants to miss a day. We're so glad to have found this program and plan to keep him enrolled through the eighth grade.

I adore this school. The teachers are friendly, the classes are good and the principal leadership is excellent. If you are looking for a good school and you live in or near Fallbrook this is the schoolto come to.

This school is amazing! I have seen a dramatic change since my children started attending here. Good students have become gifted students. I also love that this school offers foreign language classes to all ages.

Iowa Street offers an amazing support to those interested in the individualized schooling that homeschooling offers. The teachers and staff are top rate and work hard to provide an environment that is supportive to the parents as well as the students! We've been here for 5 years and only wish they'd continue past 8th grade.
