My child attended Temple Heights last year and had the most wonderful teacher. I was not pleased by my child's last school so I moved him and what a big difference. Temple Heights principal is wonderful and the entire staff has been kind and very helpful.

My daughter started Kindergarten at Temple Heights in 2007. Mrs. Elliott is a gem at Temple Heights. Her sensibility towards the children was phenomenal. Her class was always vibrant and the children were excited to go to school everyday. My weekly volunteer experience with her was organized productively for her class and students. The school events were well attended, 4th of July event was terrific! Kindergarten events were adorable! Great front office staff! Amazing PTA! Very involved.

My son started Temple Heights in 3rd grade, and my daughter in Kindergarten from a small, local private school. Coming from the intimate setting, I was worried that they wouldn't adjust well. I was completely wrong, though. Both kids have had excellent experiences all around in this school. The academic level is parallel to their previous school (their old school was ranked in the 90th+ percentile in all areas) The teachers are very aware & extremely knowledgable in how to care for the kids, and the music, library, computer, office, and P.E. is absolutely wonderful! I can't rave enough about this school! Thank you!!

My daughter has been going to Temple Heights sinc4e Feb. 2007. she was diagnoise with Selective Mutism and after just a couple of weeks, she started to speak to her Karate instructor(which shehad trained under for 2 years). The Principle is Highly dedicated to her students and leads with an understanding,Yet firm and fair hand. They are #1 this year in SCIENCE in the state of CA! The security is excellent and the computer room Outstanding! The music department is offering percussion lessons and guitar this year. I also commend their PTA staff and members. GO DRAGONS!!!!!!!!

The teachers are awesome! To bad the principal does not know how to interact with the children or parents (maybe they did not teach interpersonal communications at her school)if the teachers were not so good I would have pulled my child out of this school the 1st day of Kindergarten.
