The heart of Glenmoor Elementary is the amazingly gifted, talented, caring educators who focus their energy and resources on our most valuable asset, our children. When it comes to parent involvement this school is unparalleled and the PTA has a strong presence at the school. Although this school offers chess, basketball, chorus, band, student council, art, after-school intervention and so on, the annual play/musical is by far the shining star and so are all the students, teachers and parents that spend countless hours practicing and preparing for it. Under positive leadership inciting change where needed, the potential for Glenmoor to further excel would be even greater.

Many good teachers have left Glenmoor because of the principal's lack of support and her disrespectful attitude toward them. The principal is an ineffective administator with a hostility against anyone who may disagree with her and will retaliate against them. The reputation of this school will continue to decline under the leadership of this principal.

I love Glenmoor Elementary School because the teachers really care about each and every student. The teachers go above and beyond to make sure that every child lives up to their highest potential. Also, the annual school musical is a highlight of the school year which many children audition for and, even though some plays call for only a certain number of parts, every child is given a part so as not to disappoint any one child. Glenmoor Elementary School is truly one of the best elementary, if not THE best elementary school in Fremont!

We were not sure how good the school was before our daughter started at this school. But are happy now that she's there. She loves her school and her teacher, Mrs Smith is the best! There is a good mix of all ethnicities and skill levels of the kids. Parents take a very active role in the school PTA and activites at the class, which is nice. This is not among the top API school in Fremont, but we believe the teacher and school lay emphasis on the over-all development of the child. As always parental involvement in the school and in the activities of the child is very essential to the child's progress.

Both my kids go to Glenmoor. I am so amazed by so many different activities they both can get involved: Band, Music, Chorus, Play, Sports. Parent involvement is 100%. From the way they pick up the kids from drop zone, to arranging numerous different activities in the school year, this is an awesome place for the kids to be. I am so proud that my kids go to Glenmoor. All teachers are well experienced, dedicated and fully involved in kids development.

My son is currently in 1st grade in R-23, Ms. Yen's class. Her commitment and dedication is phenomenal. She has taken the time to get to know how my child 'ticks' and she has been able to bring out the best in him. She is truly a gift! All schools should have more teachers as exemplary as Ms.Yen.

I have been extremely happy with Glenmoor elementary. The teachers are very involved and treat children on a 1:1 basis, recognizing each child's strengths and improving on their other areas. The scores have increased consistently and it is very close to 900 now and hence in a very competitive position with the other top rated schools in the Fremont school district. Highly recommend Glenmoor elementary for a well rounded program. I am impressed with the different activities and efforts to improve technology - i.e science lab, computers in class, etc..
