La Jolla Elementary School

Posted June 10, 2008

My child attends La Jolla Elemtary after not being able to read in the 2nd grade at a private school. I hesitated to make the change because it was Nov. of 2007. La Jolla Elementary has been a breath of fresh air! I been pleasantly surprised, the teachers are much more experienced ,and the level of academics is far superior than all the other private schools my child has been (3 others). Donna Trippi, the principal is great! She is a gifted educator, a master problem solver, a great person and a true professional. She attracts and retains the best caliber of teachers. The resource educators are excellent! Mrs. Cirullo and Mrs. Zeinchner are goal oriented, they focus on achiving positive results . In just a few months my child is reading very well, eager to do homework and math, and exited about learning and school. La Jolla Ele. is excellent!

I have had my three kids in La Jolla Elementary since we arrived from another country almost four years ago. My kids and I have been really happy with the school, the teachers, the principal and the parents involvement. It is a great community.

Our son just finished Kindergarten. It has been a fantastic year, our son has thrived and we can not believe how much he has learned in 1 year! His teacher Ms. Jessica is fantastic, as well as everyone else at this school. There are so many activities and events which involve the whole family; we feel this is not just our school but also our community. I know in La Jolla there are a lot of choices of where to send your children, and we looked at them all. To those parents who are looking at private schools, we have friends who have made that choice, but I can not imagine they can have a better experience as we have in the past year.

This school academically is less than to be desired. Students seemed to be pushed through regardless of grades. Coming from a private school to this public school institution was quit an eye opener. Although, in an affluent neighborhood, I found the children wild, unruly, and worldly. I opted not to finish the year due to all the disturbing things I saw and heard. I for one cannot understand how this school obtained its reviews and rating. My experience has been a complete and utter nightmare.
