Blue Oaks Elementary School

Posted September 9, 2008

This is a very good school, my child has done well there. My only complaint is they are micro-managers and overly srict. They don't allow children to be children. No digging in the playground, no picking up acorn shells, all the harmless things kids should be able to do, they control and typically do not allow. They could also do better with parent/teacher communication. My child was/has been 'benched' in the past, and I was never notified by the teacher. How can I correct a behavior if I don't know about it? They are strict when it comes to behavior and the activities of the kids are highly controlled. It's pretty much a get your education school, with minimal fun. However, the teachers seem to be very good and we have always been pleased with the education my child receives.

I like this school very much. They do seem to care about the kids and it has a nice atmosphere there. My one criticism is that they seem to have a very ultilitarian attitude regarding the kids education. There never seems to be much fun stuff going on there, compared to Gates, where our other child goes. In fact, sharing birthday treats for kids in class is prohibited.

My son has attended Blue Oaks School since the first day it was opened, and will finish his 5th grade year at Blue Oaks. I am so impressed with this school that I travel 14 miles each way (from Sacramento) to make sure he stays at the school he loves! His 5th grade teacher is phenomenal and should be given an award for his integral part in the students' development. I would recommend this school to anyone new to the 95747 area.
