Pomerado Elementary School

Very Very Happy with Pomerado Elementary School- Mrs. Wechler is my third graders teacher. She rocks!!! Very structured and So Smart compared to other teachers at other schools. She is very expirenced and she looks at each kid one on one and she even hugs them each and every one every day. Dee at the office helped me to get everything together before school started and helped me with my inter-district transfer. Everyone there is so helpful and loving to all the children. My Favorite though is Mr. Louie President of PTA. He made my child feel so welcomed and he helped her make friends. Seeing that she came from Felicita Elementary, they let kids call her fat and laugh her off the drama stage along with let her fall behind every one in class, when the year before she was in GATE. I really appreciate the new school at Pomerado and the Staff. My child and I both LOVE this school !!!!

I love this school!!! We have live in many different states and are very selective on schools and districts...and by far this are one of the best schools in the Poway district. Ms. Danzler the principle is very concern with each student progress she is a great idol. Also the special needs program is good but the speech therapist is a piece of work. Ms Friedrick one of the 1st grade teachers is very sensitive to each student needs and approaches her teaching strategies in that manner.

I feel so happy to have moved into Poway but also to have my children at Pomerado Elementary. I am always astounded at how involved the parents and staff are. Everyone really gets into the entire experience of educating and enriching our families lives. We are so looking forward to the construction being over as the 'new' and improved Pomerado Elementary is GORGEOUS!!!

Pomerado is a great school! It is currently being renovated, as are many Poway schools this year. There is a wonderful staff and excellent principal. There is an active parent base. There is a high quality of education as well as extracurricular activities such as mad science and boy scouts available. In short this is a great little school that your family will feel at home in!

Pomerado is great academically and has wonderful teachers. One thing I don't like about the school is that it is not very well kept. It seems dirty and old. They are really overdue for some repairs.

Pomerado has some great teachers, but also some teachers that seem to have lost focus on why they teach. I don't feel as if it is the safest school. Nobody ever checks ID and the school is open for anyone to walk around and/or in and out of classrooms. It seems to be divided pretty equally from what I have experienced. There are wonderful, loving teachers who really enjoy being there and really seem to care about your child. Then there are teachers who are unloving and seem to not have or be able to make time for you or your child. One of my kids has a teacher like that. It's sad to me.

Pomerado is a great school. The teachers are outstanding. Administration is outstanding. There is a lot of school activities and a real down home feeling at the school. Everyone is so friendly. It truly has been a happy place for my children to attend school. There is neighboring schools that have much higher income families and rate better in testing but all I have heard from my friends is that it is full of politics and snobish parents. No thank you! I love Pomerado!

This is a very good school. Teachers and support staff are outstanding. Parents are kept informed. Rules are enforced.

The quality of acedemics at Pomerado has been outstanding. We moved here from a different school district in Washington State where in Kindergarten my son was reading at a lower level. When we moved here to Poway, he had the reenforcement and attention he needed and he is now reading at one of the higher reading levels. Arts, sports and other extracurricular activities are offered after school through a program and are outstanding! The level of parent involvement is a little lacking but if you live in California it is nearly impossible for both mom and dad not to work. That makes it really hard for families to contribute 100 percent. This is a great school and I highly recommend moving to this area if you can afford it!
