Golden Hill School is wonderful, the teaching staff is very helpful. But don't forget that the education begun in our family 1st. So we need pay attention in our kids.

Do not like this school. I had my child in it for only 1 year and pulled her after the Kinder year. They are too concerned about bodies in the classrom rather than actual teaching. My child was behind when advancing to the 1 st grade at the next school. Office staff is only there because it is a job not a passion for them. Stopped a fight oin the the playground and called the office with the info and they scolded me for interferring. They really do not care much.

My child is in 3rd grade and so far I have been pleased with 2 out of 3 of his teachers. He was placed in Mr. Dixon's class and I had heard that he wasn't good but I didn't request a new teacher and my child is very pleased with him and I think he is great. He has been very informative regarding my childs progress and gives suggestions when needed. The office staff is great and the PTA definitely does a good job putting activities together. The drop off area can be difficult at times but that is usally when other parents are NOT following the rules and stopping where they are not suppose to be.

If someone was moving into this area with no kowledge of Fullerton and is concerned about finding the best school for their children, then you're looking into the right school. Highly recommended +++. Parent involvement and diversity is strong and very well rounded. Great School!!

Many exceptional teachers, a few that are o.k. 3 that stink. I doubt if there are many schools with better teachers overall.

I give it a 5 out of 5. Two of my children go here and I have had nothing but a WONDERFUL experience with the teachers and staff and group of parents that I interact with. Very, very good school and good people.

I love this school. We have transfered both of our kids here, and will transfer our third as well. They put an emphasis on the arts. Principal Johnson is friendly and well respected from students as well as parents. The PTA is strong in this school providing a warm relationship between the parents.

This is a wonderful neighborhood school. My child has been here since 1st grade, and I am sad that he is moving on to junior high. The teachers did a great job of challenging him academically and supporting him socially. I was very happy with his experience at this school, and the teachers, especially his 6th grade teacher, who works so hard for the kids.

After living in Fullerton for 13 years and hearing so much about how wonderful the district is, my child attended GH for 3 1/2 years. Not very satisfied with teacher recommendations. We moved out the area, was sad at first, but now realize that the area was not all it was cracked up to be. My child struggled for a year in her new school. She was behind in everything. Very disappointing as I always thought GH was a great school. Surprise!
