Sherman Oaks Elementary School

Posted March 27, 2008

This school offers a strong curriculum for students in both English and Spanish. Kindergarterners are taught in an emersion program that allows them to embrace learning a new language while teaching new skills in both English and Spanish. The children are given homework and books in both languages to encourage additional learning at home.

My child began kindergarten at Sherman Oaks, and I have to say (he's in first now) that this school is superb. He is learning a tremendous amount in both Spanish and English. The teachers are just wonderful, and the curriculum coordination between the English and Spanish teachers is wonderful. The school also has many wonderful student events both during and after school, as well as Science Exhibition nights for the children to demonstrate their own projects to parents.

My son attended from 2nd grade to 6th he missed out on the dual immersion program but my daughter started in kinder and is now going into the 3rd. So far with my daughter it's been fantastic, the teachers she has had for Spanish have been the best. She has become completely bilingual and really enjoys speaking Spanish. I believe she has fallen behind in english the spelling has been her biggest downfall. With a little more work she will be fine. As far as Neg. The politics are far too extreme and is causing a lot of teachers to leave! This last year was far worse then the first 2. I think if it was addressed things would be ok. Too bad the staff cant get along. The kids are the ones who suffer.Some parents form clicks like high school, but if you stay to yourself you'll be ok.
