Alvarado (Juan Bautista) Elementary School Reviews

 
We switched from a private school to this public school. The school work is a year behind at 2nd grade. - It is nice that public school is free but I would like to have vouchers to choose where my kids go to school. I like the WRAP after school program for our 2nd grader. It is a bit difficult that our Kindergartner gets out at 1pm and the 2nd grader at such a later time.

My daughter has attended Alvarado for 2 years. The academics focus on the struggling students and kids who are at or above grade level have little to do. Homework is minimal and extremely repetitive, the after school program is disorganized and ran by college kids who do not supervise the kids well during field trips, there is very little social studies and science taught and the assemblies tend to focus on one culture instead of all of the cultures that attend the school. My daughter arrived at Alvarado with a love for learning and very curious. I am checking her out because she is bored and has progressed very little. She has received good reports, but has not been challenged. Not the school for me.

Alvarado Elementary has just been designated as a California Distinguished School. Congratulations!

As a parent, I am very pleased to have Dr. Sima Shahidi as the new principal of Alvarado Elementary. She is incredibly smart, kind, and active in the school community. Every morning, she is out with the kids showing them flash cards (to practice their math facts) and hugging them telling them to have a great day at school. The teachers are great! No matter what grade your child is in, there is a great teacher waiting to teach her. I am so very pleased to have my daughter at Alvarado.

I am so pleased with the staff at Alvarado! My kindergarten daughter has learned how to read, do math equations and problem solving skills like you wouldn't believe! And all in one short year. The year round schedule is wonderful and gives an excellent balance to school and family time. I couldn't ask for a better teacher than Mrs. Javier! She is phenomenal with the students and keeps a weekly report card coming home...this way we always know exactly how our child is doing. I had no idea that this school received an 8 out of a 1-10 scale in academics...but I'm not surprised! Alvarado is Wonderful and Highly acknowledged!
