value your child's education, I would warn you to NOT send your child to this school. I have an autistic, severely delayed son who is on an IEP and is supposed to be in special classroom setting however they placed him in a general education class. The TA and teacher allow my son to do whatever he wants with no supervision. I was constantly getting phone calls that he was getting hurt at school. They do not call me anymore because of the amount of times I have complained to the principal. I have even went to the actual school district office to raise hell for my son and nothing was done. Whatever you hear about this school is true. They place so many students with a teacher that they cannot adequately supervise their own students. I believe since the school is in a lower income area, they do not want to provide (or don't have) resources. I was so weary on even sending my son to this school and my suspicions were correct!!! They do not care about your child's education and are just there for a paycheck which is really sad. Thankfully I am moving to a way better area with a way better school district and my son will get the help he actually needs.

Not everyone recognizes the outstanding support and attention this school gives to their students. Aside from one of the reviews above, my child was in the wiseburn school district, and I was unhappy with the respect the staff lacked. The wiseburn schools only develop the children who are already advanced. They do not pay attention to the children that need educational support, they don't recognize the children who challenge themselves. My child has recently been enrolled here and he LOVES it. He says the principal and the staff are very kind and always offer to help. What I love is that this school district doesn't discriminate you based on your race. That is something wiseburn should work on.

I was extremely unhappy the class size ratio was horrible 38 students with one teacher. The environment was extremely negative no support for the kids who actually wanted to learn. The teacher was focused on the bad behavior of the students he was never able to teach and the children showed that in their testing because 52% class was failing math. The principal and assistant principal were always willing to listen anytime I had a concern which was great but for my child it was a horrible experience. I think it's unfair that our children have to suffer because our school district cares more about how much money they can get for each student that is enrolled instead of perfecting a better education. That's why most parent want to put their kids in wiseburn school district.

This is my son's second year at Eucalyptus Elementary. I was hesitant to enroll my child into this school but my son's school experience and educational achievements demosntrate that he is doing very well at this school. This school actually made a great improvement in their API growth target. The staff and teachers are envolved in the child's progress. There is a new principal, Mrs. Janson. She is very nice and seems to have many projects for the school's continual progress.
