I have three kids at Arroyo Seco and am generally pleased with this school. The teachers really make it all work-- dedicated, experienced, sincere. The parent involvement is high and any extra-curriculars come from parent-run programs now, due to state budget cuts. I really wish the PTA were more focused on learning programs and educational needs rather than parties and special events though. And please, please update our useless website! Any child who is willing to work and whose family is supportive at home can do well at this school. If anything, I would say the economically underprivileged and the English learners receive an disproportionate amount of attention and funds. I like the diversity and believe it is good for my kids. A very good school all around.
We moved across the country recently from a school that was ranked a 10 on GreatSchools, so I was worried about finding a comparable one. I am glad that my child and our family landed at Seco. The principal is phenomenal; he has incredible energy, is at every single event and is available during school days as well, and the kids really respond to him. We've only had one teacher so far, but she is one of those all-too-rare people who seems to committed to meeting each child's individual needs both socially and educationally. Best of all is that the parents seem to be very involved, even more than at our old school. The enrichment opportunities for the kids are so diverse: running club, Spanish classes, book club, chess, knitting, and many more. Great experience so far.
Great teachers, parents and community. Things are tough for public schools in California & the Arroyo Seco community really works hard to make it a great place for the kids.
Our school has a wonderful community feel to it with lots of smiling faces to greet us everyday. Between the hardworking teachers and the parents who volunteer tirelessly, we have the best school in the USA!
