Indian Valley is sorely lacking in its efforts to accomodate the higher performing students in K-3, before GATE is an option. They go out of their way for 'special needs' and under-performing students, while they leave the higher achievers to languish until the others 'catch up.' If you have a high achiever, plan on supplementing their early education at home to keep them inspired.

'Both our son and our daughter have gone to Indian Valley Elementary School. Indian Valley is a school where the children come first and teachers collaborate with parents. Each child is encouraged to do their personal best and differentiated learning experiences are the norm. The teachers are highly skilled and work hard to bring out the best in each child. The principal is very strong in both administration and academic excellence. She leads by example and employs kindness when dealing with the children. Children receive Art, Music and P.E. thanks to the Walnut Creek Education Foundation. In most cases, the parent organization is welcoming and lead by capable people. The after school program is well run and managed.
