Miramar Ranch is an excellent school. The staff members are caring and encouraging. Parents are welcomed and able to approach teachers, the principal, etc. The amount of parental involvement is amazing. There are programs offered (science, music, art, etc) that other schools unfortunately aren't able to offer because of budget cuts. I am confident that my son is getting the best education possible at Miramar Ranch.
MIramar Ranch Elementary is a great school employed with smart and encouraging teachers. I am confident that my daughter will graduate from this school prepared for all the challeges she will face in life! The princepal is very commited in helping the students reach new heights. You should enroll your son/daughter in this excellent school so they can suceed in life. As a child, i went to Miramar Ranch Elementary school and they helped me achieve a great goal in my life, i am now a sucessful surgeon. Their campus is full of greenery and smiles of the students that attend this amazing school. The educators have a true love for teaching children what they will need to be great in life. So be smart and enroll your child/children in Miramar Ranch Elementary School.
I have 2 children at this school and it's our 5th year at MRE. Our principal is very approachable and well received by parents and students. The teaching staff is filled with many individuals who truly love to teach. Despite ongoing budget problems statewide, our parents really pitch in physically, financially and at home to help these students succeed. I haven't heard of or experienced anything like the negative review from Nov. 2010. We've got terrific school spirit and the school has a very warm, welcoming feel to it.
I've had 2 children go thru the school--approximately 9 years! Before my first child went there, I was apprehensive. However, friends enlightened me and it turned out to be a great school. The teachers are great--some of the best in the district, in my opinion. They really care about the children. Can't say enough about the Principal! She is wonderful with the children. She sits in each classroom to observe. She is totally hands on. It's going to be hard when my children are out of the school. Miramar Ranch has a great Science Lab, PE Department, Running Club, Computer Lab, and has several family oriented events--Ice Cream Social, Science Nights, JogAThon, H'ween Carnival, Book Fairs and much more!
Beware this school is not a friendly or family oriented school. Teachers are mean and the principal does not care. Teachers yell at kids in public. Kindergarten teachers are just baby sitters. They don't teach. Attending this school, your child will only suffer emotional trauma like my son.
A decent school however, my child has special medical needs and they only have a nurse on grounds once a week!! Not good at an elementary school...other than that I think it is a pretty good school
I had 2 children attend MMRE from K-6 and K-5 and I feel very fortunate that they had the great opportunity to attend this school. My son was well prepared for Middle School and remained a 4.0 student throughout 9th Grade (in advanced classes). The seminar program at MMRE is outstanding in particular at the 5th grade level where my daughter has the privilege to be taught by the best teacher one can wish for. All in all, I am forever thankful for the wonderful expereince MMRE has provided for my children. The Principal is great and her leadership and focus is outstanding. The campus is beautiful as well.
This is a Great School. From its Principal to teachers they care and encourage parental involvement. Beautiful campus. Highly recommended.
We moved here recently and have been very impressed by both teachers and staff members. The parent community is also very involved and there is a great number of activities. This year they got traffic patrol of the year for all of San Diego Unified School District. I highly recommend checking out their web site: http://www.miramarranch.org
We have had two wonderful teachers and one not so great. I feel in public school that it's hard to catch the ones that should be pushed further ahead. It's also hard to pick out the ones that need more help due to the class size and work overload. I find the principal and staff very nice and helpful, but I need to point things out most of the time.
