I have two children that have attended Sierra since kindergarten. The office staff, teachers and principal are all amazing! They are all caring, dedicated individuals whose priority is to see that all of their children feel safe, confident and have the tools that they need to become successful adults!

This is our first year at this school. I have two boys and they were a little nervous starting a new school. They started school a week ago and love it. Both really like their teachers, the school offers a lot of things for the kids to do, as where the last school we came from didn't offer anything. A+++ for Sierra!

My oldest daughter goes to Sierra Elementary. This has been a great learning environment for her. The teachers really seem to love their jobs. I cannot wait for my youngest to be old enough to start at Sierra

I had to move my child from here. The reading program was weak and math was not consistent between teachers. I understand the school recently has gone through some changes. Hopefully they can work this out.
