My daughter has attended Palmquist for 2 years now, and we have had great luck with her teachers. I think the school gets a bad rap because of all the extra attention it has to pay the the abundance of ESL kids. Alot depends on the teacher, but so far we are two for two. The afterschool programs they offer are amazing. Lots of movie nights, fundraisers and parent participation. if they would only open Ditmar back up so our school could keep its good reputation.
Empresa is definitely one of the best schools in the Vista School District! The teachers are top notch and the music program rocks! My son has struggled academically since Kindergarten and the teachers have supported and offered ways to help him succeed. Everyone has worked together so well to offer suggestions on how to help him and when he wasn't making the progress we all had hoped, the support staff was there to identify his special needs and offer assistance. My son is now getting the help he needs all because of how proactive everyone was and how well they worked together. Thank you Empresa!
Overall, I believe that Empresa is an excellent school, but not for children who consistently struggle academically that are not diagnosed by a physician. They are not very proactive at identifying or supporting children with learning difficulties. My child has always struggled reaching grade levels, but not once was I contacted to discuss possible ways of helping her succeed. Although my concerns are heard, nothing seems to be done about them and I sense no urgency to address them. Interventions or modifications to help students catch up are not available within regular education program. I am very disappointed.
This is my daughter's first year at Empresa. I am so thrilled . She loves the school! It is a very warm environment that I feel is so necessary in Elementary Schools. There is a strong parent,teacher,and community environment. It was a difficult decision to move her and I have no regrets!
