Halecrest Elementary School

Posted August 2, 2009

I have 2 daughters that attended Halecrest for the past 2 years, we are a military family, and sadly had to move. The PTA is very active, the teachers welcome parent participation in the classrooms, and keep you in the loop instead of just at conference time. This school has many different programs available, girl scouts, GATE programs, art, music, and p.e. as well. The principal is very available, friendly with all the kids and parents, and knows everyone by their first name. Overall if you live in Chula Vista it's worth transferring to, if this school is not your neighborhood school, it's the best in the district!

Great school, staff, and principal. I drive from the westside of Chula Vista so my son can attend this fantastic school.

As the Principal of Halecrest Elementary, I confidently give this school the highest possible rating. Halecrest is a great place to learn, and not just because of the solid test scores. Teachers and staff are dedicated professionals who design instruction and activities to bring out the best in children in a challenging and supportive environment. Besides our high academic expectations our students enjoy rich learning experiences including our Arts, Drama/Music, and PE programs, memorable PTA activities, and partnerships with Sea World and the Reuben H. Fleet Science Center to enhance our science curriculum to name just a few. Do I really believe what I think about this school? Well, I'm transferring over my son to Halecrest this fall to join my daughter who attended there last year. Check out our website as I'll be posting the top 10 reasons to put your child at Halecrest and I welcome all inquiries.

My child was a transfer from another school... at first I was hesitant placing her in a school I didn't know much about... fortunately for us that was the best thing that could have happened. It is now three years later and we couldn't be any more happy with this school. The principal far exceeds any expectiations and knows that communication is important. The PTA is one of best I've ever seen, they care about the children. You are bound to see a board memeber volunteering on campus almost everyday of the school year. The teachers work together in a way that makes the children learn and be happy. The support staff is great and the programs are just as wonderful. This school provides a great education and is a school very much worth bragging about. Any issue I've had has been resolved and we are lucky to have this school.
