Agua Caliente Elementary is an excellent school for children to attend. The class sizes are the perfect size. There's just enough kids to make everything work. Parents are always volunteering for various activities. The students are just as great. They are always lending a hand to the other students and to the land. The principal, Dr. Yopp, is wonderful. She's always doing the quirkiest things to help the school raise money. This is her second year of teaching and there are certainly more years to come. Everyone's waiting to see what zany thing she'll plan to do next year.
The principal of this school tries to hard to please everyone. She tells students one thing, staff another, and parents yet another. She keeps her focus on things like a student newscast using new AV copmpuers, yet there are classrooms without working computers or power outlets. Vandals have cause major damage on campus over the past two years and there have been no security changes. She is very nice, but there is such a thing as too nice.
We started at this school this fall and have been so pleased. The new principal is proving to be a great leader and very accessible to the parents. Both of my sons teachers are motivated, enthusiastic and caring. My boys are enthusiastic about the extracurricular activities. The PTG is all about raising funds (as stated in another review) and I am glad for them and all that the group does to improve the facilities (A Big Shout Out to the chairpersons of this years Fall Festival! Great Job!) All in all, a great education for my children and a great community to be a part of.
My daughter and son were always happy going to this school for 6 years. With any school there are good and bad teachers. This school has some that should retire. There are some teachers that are very, very motivating. The PTG is about making money, but has no discipline on where they spend it. Some of the things are very worthwhile, while others are a waste. The parent involvement holds this school and it's extracaricular activities together. The parents support the teachers and the teachers teach our children, a great circle of education.
