We bought in the East Sac area so we could attend Caleb Greenwood. We have been dissapointed both years we have been there. If you have an above average student then Caleb is a great school. Your child will get the best teacher with the best students. My child struggles but does not qualify for extra help. He is getting the short end of the stick and I feel is getting lost. The principal is lacking respect for the students and parents. Her best interest is test scores. We are looking for a new school this coming Fall. I do love the community feeling that Caleb has and just wish that things were done better to give EVERY child a fair chance.

Once this school gets a principle that strives to include the who community of the school, not just certain families, is consistent with supporting teaching staff and is actually friendly to parents on campus, this school will be great again.

Our child requires an "IEP" (Individualized Educational Plan) and that is the reason we are choosing a public school. We have been incredibly impressed with the level of expertise of the Resource Dept. I have also appreciated the front office staff --they are very busy, get repeatedly interrupted and are still gracious.

They gave our son a wonderful start to his education which will be a lifelong adventure for him.

I applied to this school because it has the best teachers in the neighborhood (4th & 1st now attending). They have been wonderful at noticing each child's developmental needs. Socially and intellectually my children have thrived. I am impressed with the extreme parent involvement. The field trips are amazing. Extra school programs include art, music, science, dance, theatre, running club, etc. I have been very pleased.

Overall, we are very happy with this school. I think they could find ways to get parents more involved and they have a poor PE program for jr. high students, but overall, we are happy that the school is a close part of its community, the teachers are great and my kids are thriving well in the environment.

I have three kids at Caleb and have been very pleased with our experience there. There is active parent and community involvement in the school which really adds to the programs and opportunities at the school. No school is perfect, but overall we have been very happy at Caleb.

I have been nothing but pleased with Caleb Greenwood. My son has been at this school since kindergarten, and is now in 3rd grade. The teachers have been supportive and have challenged him academically.We just attended the winter concert and realized that not many other schools have music programs. There are also great afterschool programs as well.The staff has been helpful and always there to lend a hand, and I am so lucky that Caleb has such great parents,too, that participate in the class as well as around campus.Caleb has always had a great reputation and continues to grow and evolve despite tough economic times. We are lucky to have this jewel in our neighborhood!

I went to Caleb Greenwood for 7th and 8th grade. I loved the school and the activities we got to do. For our 8th grade trip we got to go to San Francisco. The only two things I did not like is that Caleb is a very small school so going into a big High School was a shock, and the other thing is I didn't feel like the teachers were that involved, but if I had to recommend one it would be Mrs. Carey. [Middle school english teaher] she was the teacher that helped me the most.
