Wonderful school set back among the redwoods, excellent committed teachers, dedicated hardworking parent club, new fully accessible playground for kids with disabilities, 2 computer labs, teachers using smart boards & more technology to come, arts education, and site improvement in the works! Valencia is a great public school option.

I agree that the principal & teachers at Valencia are very caring and everyone knows my child. But I have been disappointed in the curriculum. My daughter has spent K and 1st grade there and it is a bare-bones education - reading & math only. Important, of course! - but there is no science, history, or music! dksljdflj taught to these little ones! Not only In both K and 1st grade there are entire afternoons spent watching TV cartoon videos and reading cartoon storybooks. I find this very disappointing since there is so much great material out there for kids. I have been supplementing her education at home so much that I'm considering private school or homeschooling now.
