She didn't take it seriously so she had me removed from her classroom even though I didn't do anything wrong I was doing student teaching, and she tried to cover this up so I went to the police.

I am writing this review on behalf of my Grandsons and my family…read more My daughter attended this school back in 1996- 1999. She is now raising her own kids, and I have the pleasure in assisting her. From the day my first Grandson, was in Transitional Kindergarten, to present, has been a positive experience. He is now 3rd grade. He has had the fortune to have had Mrs. Faye, Mrs. Hansen, Mrs. Rain, (sp) Mrs Esquival, and now Mrs. Skeens. I have only positive things to say about this Murrieta school. My second Grandson, has Mrs. Airebear. Every body loves Mrs. Airebear!!! Especially my Grandson! I would especially like to Thank Leslie and Jaqui in the office for every single time we walk through their doors. They are helpful and very professional in all they do for our kids. Whether I call them on the phone, or present myself in person, great staff in the office holding this school together! Last but not least, I haven't met him in person, but, I have watched this man from the drive up lanes, from the parking lot, walking through the halls, at award ceremonies, flag days, jogathons, picking up and dropping off day to day, and he just stuns the life out of me. He is genuine and sincere about keeping our kids safe. He is Alta's Principal. Mr. Cooley, I hope I spelled your name correctly. You rock! My Grandsons and my family, say Thank You, for keeping them safe. Greatest school in Murrieta! You will not be disappointed. I am shocked that more parents have not reviewed this school. After all, our children spend over half their lives here. 20 million stars for ALTA Murrieta Elementary!

My older son grew up going to Oceanside and Fallbrook schools, so after seeing the quality of…read moreeducation one child received versus what my younger child receives here at Alta, I am so EXTRA appreciative now that I have a baseline for comparison. Ms. Caldwell and Mr. Coley have always gone above and beyond, with all the students they see on a daily basis they somehow manage to personally greet my kiddo and the fact that they are so invested in the kids here really shows. This school is safe, fun, and staffed with amazing teachers. We are so grateful for all the staff here who make this school the great place that it is.

They need to dress more appropriately for teachers as they are setting a bad example. Also why odd they need to wear stilettos? Weird and uncomfortable not to mention how you going to run after the stragglers and kids that don't listen. Two stars minus due to the children have to eat outdoors with the cold/hot weather and bugs. No indoor cafeteria really strange. Second star is due to pick up rules...can't pick up at main gate need to park illegally and walk over, not safe. They lock the gate! Strange system.

Our experience at Warm Springs Middle School has been deeply concerning, especially when it comes…read moreto student safety. Bullying is a serious issue here and doesn't seem to be taken as seriously as it should be. My child has witnessed--and unfortunately been affected by--multiple incidents of physical fights on campus, some of which were barely addressed by staff. It's alarming how common these altercations are, and how little follow-up there seems to be. We expected a safe and supportive environment for learning, but instead found ourselves constantly worried about our child's well-being. When we brought up concerns to administration, the response felt dismissive and reactive rather than proactive. This school desperately needs stronger leadership when it comes to campus safety, clear policies around bullying, and more supervision during breaks and passing periods. Students should feel protected and valued, not scared to go to school. If I could give 0 stars I absolutely would.

I have had the opportunity to attend regularly as interpreter for special needs student and has been a wonderful experience. The staff at Tony Tobin is very professional and welcoming. I like their checking system to make sure everyone gets their tag either if a parent or visitor and divide visitor by categories. I don't see the same at other schools where I go for similar reasons. I met a lady from my country that works in the health service and I could tell how caring she was with the kids. Everyone is amazing. Also, the garden is so nice and impressive. Overall a school I would like to go if I were a kid again!
