My kids are going to the 2nd grade and KG in this school. This is the best school I had ever seen. The teachers are excellent, treat the students as their own kids, encourage and applaud them all thro' the year. Also communicate with each parent regularly thro' personalized emails. The principal Mr.Burns is very very friendly, both with the parents and kids. They have great programs like Math Challenge, summer reading etc. In short, best school ever :-)
My daughter started as a Kinder when the school opened in 2007 and will now be in 4th grade. The principal, teachers and the rest of the staff are one in a million. Could not ask for anything more. Keep up the great work.
This school is absolutely amazing. Every staff member works hard to insure that all students master the grade level requirements. The new principal is easy to work with it and handles any issues promptly and professionally.
I dislike this school , if your not on the PTA they really don't care about you or your child. This is our 1st and last year at this school.
Our family recently moved to the area and my 2nd grade son began attending Lake Hills. My husband and I are especially greatful for the level of positivity that is exemplified throughout the schoolwide systems. This school celebrates EVERYTHING and finds the positive in the child over finding the negative in the child. My son absolutely loves the classroom activities and positive culture/environment of the school's structure. I am VERY pleased with Lake Hills.
I moved to Lake Hill Reverse for a year from Garden Grove, Orange County. My son was schooling 3 years in private school. I was worry about public schooling in Riverside since most of them have very slow score. However, after a year in 2nd grade, I realized Lake Hills Element school is a very good school. The principle is very hand-ons/busy "staff". I am happy with school staffs and all activities in school. Few thing I concern is big gaps among student levels in class. Some students are excellent, but some of them are too low. It will give teacher hard time to teach...Hope, the principle figures out a way to deal with this.
My kids used to go to private school, and I was going to keep it that way until we just couldn't afford it. I was blown away with the fact that public school can be so much better then private. I wish I enroled my kids in this school two years ago. Everybody from the principal to the lunch lady are amazing. My kids adore their teachers.
The principal is dynamic, the teachers are top notch, the PTA does alot to promote school spirit as well as bringing in great programs for kids and parents to enjoy. The school promotes personal growth in their CLASS motto (character, leadership, attitude, scholarship and service). I have 2nd and 4th grade children at Lake Hills and they love their teachers, principal and school.
My son is in Kinder here and he loves being here, his teacher gives each student personal attention and communicates with parents almost on a daily basis if needed. Open communication thru the whole school, valet service for drop off and every staff and facukty if friendly and compassionate.
My son is attending kinder here and we love it. The teachers/faculty/staff are great and caring people... Great school for any child.
