The faculty and administration and very interactive with the parents. Parents contribute time and energy in the classrooms and extra curricular activity. I guess it is the people that make it a really great school.

Our school has dedicated teachers that love teaching. The community wants our school to succeed and therefore works extremely hard to make that happen. The students are enthusiastic and want to be there. With all that how could it not be a wonderful place for my children.

My children attend Calavera Hills Elementary school and they love it. They have so many programs paid for by the PTA. Most families don't know the PTA pays for so much and they need to toot their own horn a little more. There are so many activities and events for families to participate in - just read your weekly courier and you know everything that is going on during the school year - it's wonderful. This year they have a great website that also fills you in on what's going on all over campus. The parent involvement at our school is wonderful and the teaching staff couldn't be better. They really know how to teach to each child. Excellent school, excellent teachers, excellent principal and wonderful families!!

We test kids at the end of the year and beginning. Kids that don't keep up during the summer take a giant step backwards. If our kids do complain about homework, we ask them,"Do you want to work for a company, or own the company?"

No. Let the children have a break. Let their minds focus on being children. They'll have plenty of homework when they go back to school. I would not even consider enforceing summer homework for my children. They need stress free playtime.

Yes. Of course summer is for fun however they can take a brake from homework 2 weeks or so, not the whole summer. If you teach a child the importance of learing they will enjoy the homework even in the summer.
