Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
As good as it gets for public schools, even better than some private schools, as well. I say this because I transferred my child from private to public and the difference was ZERO tuition, AWESOME teachers and GREAT administration at Peyton. I have two kids at this school and they have had only good experiences here. Also, the principle is WONDERFUL...she cares about the students and has taken this school from a 600 API score to almost 800! I wouldn't doubt that the school can achieve an 800+ API score this 2011-2012 school year.
—Submitted by a parent
This school has amazing, dedicated teachers. This school also has a wonderful principal. I am happy to have chosen this school for my children.
—Submitted by a parent
Disgusting. My 7 year old twins and 13 year old daughter attend this school. What a mistake. I am now looking for another school for them. The principal actually hung up on me when I complained and then sent me to voice mail the remainder of the day. They don't handle issues well and the element of kids that attend this school, well, if you want your kids happy and safe, DO NOT send them there. Unfortunately, I made the mistake of assuming a newer school must have excellent students, academics and staff, sorely mistaken.

In 2011-2012 California used the California Standards Tests (CSTs) to test students in English language arts in grades 2 through 11; math in grades 2 through 7; science in grades 5, 8 and 10; and history-social science in grades 8 and 11. Middle and high school students also took subject-specific CSTs in math and science, depending on the course in which they were enrolled. The CSTs are standards-based tests, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of California. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the tests.
The different student groups are identified by the California Department of Education; if there are fewer than 10 students in a particular group in a school, the state doesn't report data for that group.
