Stone Avenue Elementary School

Ursuline is a wonderful place. My daughter has excelled here due to the tremendous teaching staff. The teachers work together across disciplines to provide a very rich experience for the girls. The girls are eager to learn more. The leadership at the school is fabulous -- the principal and faculty are very engaged with the students and the parents - they listen and respond. All of the students are encouraged to have a voice and to be heard.

This is a great school. My kids want to go to school every day!! The teachers we have had are wonderful. There are rules that must be followed, but these rules apply to everyone. The family is encouraged to be involved with many activities. The principal and staff do a great job and really know the children.

I think this is a great school. The teachers are obviously top-notch. They teach a very difficult population, and get a lot out of most of them. Students are bussed in from out of the area, so the school does not reflect the neighborhood. High expectations, good help for all.

I have attended Stone Ave. since I was in kindergarten (I am now in seventh grade). Most of the teachers that I know and had are pretty awesome. The students do learn a lot from the teachers.My sixth grade teacher is one of the best teachers at the school. His name is Mr.Payne. If you didn't get right away, he kept teaching the lesson over again until you got it right.Take it from someone who knows that school is pretty awesome thanks to the students,parents,and the wonderful teachers.

Stone avenue is a very well planned school. the teachers are very 'student oriented'. If they see that the child is having issues (iether with school curiculum or personal , they notify the parents right away so that they can fix/resolve the issue early and not making the matter worse when parent/teacher confrences take place, this way there are no surprises for the parents. They are very 'safety' concience and it really shows that the teachers and faculty care alot about the students' wellbeing and safety.

I am a retired teacher (30 ys.) who has been subbing in all three Riverside districts for the past 2 yrs. Stone Ave. is one of the finest schools I have ever been involved with as a teacher or as a parent. Mr. Olguin is #1

I have one child in his second year at Stone Ave. I attend most activities at the school. All personnel at this campus have proven to be very polite, helpful and focused on the children. The Principal Ms. Winston is a very strong role model. So far all of the teachers I have met also appear to be excellent mentors for the children. I believe with continued teacher involvement and parental support, we will develop responsible young adults. Consider yourself a fortunate parent, if your child starts with Ms. Hammack.
