Valle Verde Elementary School

Posted August 25, 2009

Valle Verde is one of the great schools located in Walnut Creek. The PTA is a huge asset to the school! The teachers are very involved in maintaining the high level of academics in the school. Go Vikings!

While test scores remain high, PTA involvement continues to decline. Teachers need the return of more aides in the classroom so they can have more one-on-one time with students. Funding has to go to this very important issue so teachers aren't stretched to the limits.

The teachers are fabulous. Families that attend this school tend to be middle to uppre middle class with high socioeconomic standards. Parents are educated and children are brought up in an intellectual atmosphere lending to high test scores. Many after school activites which include a carnival, parent dinner/dance/auction fun-raiser, 4th and 5th grade musical and more. The principal supports neither the teachers nor the students/families in general. I would like to see a more energetic and hands-on administration that did not defer to outspoken parents but looks to enhance the elementary experience. If your child is affiliated with GATE, 4th-5th science camp is one of the best experiences. There is no real differenciation of eduication on a daily basis for GATE vs. non-GATE students. This may be due in part to the high educational standards of the community.

School's awesome. Principal doesn't follow through with discipline. Weak leadership. Other than that, school is fantastic and my son did well.
