I am a college professor and both of my kids have gone to this school, my daughter is in 4th grade now. It is the best, I really cant think of anything that could improve it. The principle, teachers and staff are really helpful and do a fantastic job. I think this is one of the best in the city of san diego.....really, you cant go wrong here. Just go visit the campus, you will see quickly what the vibe is like, its really nice. The principle is awesome, you basically can just walk into her office at anytime, she really helped my daughter out a few times. Way above and beyond there normal job. I feel lucky to have my kids there.
I think Aviara Oaks is the best a school can get. They have amazing teachers, great music and p.e. programs, a great princapal, and forget a promising staff. I think it's a school where every child can find the intellagence they need. Unlike other people I don't think Aviara Oaks is overcrowded and if it is it's only because all the children like it there and they want to stay. I'm not just saying because I want to support my school it's because it's all true.
RE: Parent involvement = excellent. Why are tasks done by parents, not positions funded by school district? IE: admin assistance for office freeing parents to help in classrooms. RE: Special Ed Program lacking. Teacher is nurturing, innovative, but time spread thinly. With 14 years experience, it is lack of an assistant / lack of equipment holding her students from benefits of sufficiently individualized standard education. SpecEd needs enrichment material, more muscle strengthening equipment IE: swings for physically challenged. Computers added 9/07, with unfamiliar machines and unusual programs. More teachers needed. New paid teacher 9/07 with no assistant. Many kids in program. RE: Ms.Husing, much improvement, enthusiasm and involvement over last year. Previous Principal displayed distant attitude, passed buck, and did not follow through on her word. RE: After school program: Chess,Camp Imagine Art, Jazz Dance ... expensive ... please lower with PTA / District subsidy? Need more paid teacers and TA's soon
This school is awful! It is overcrowded and under funded. The kids get only get the basics and nothing more. Extracurricular activities cost money and are run by third party providers and are pathetic. I am so glad my daughter only had to attend for four months. I was so glad to get her out of the school and us out of the state. Avoid at all costs!
