My daughter has an IEP and absolutely loves the sensory play, staff, and friends here. Our daughter has made so much progress since starting special education preschool and now has an IEP in a general education classroom we love that and that she is included with kids of all backgrounds, learning styles, and ethnic diversity. We love every teacher as they are so positive and encouraging making school a really fun place to be at drop off and pick up. They also do fun theme days and incorporate a lot of play into Preschool and Pre K. We love that they involve parents in Read to Your Child Fridays every few weeks! Keep it up the positivity and momentum can be really felt by everyone.

In my experience very effective, otherwise my soon could have given up going to school with different language as his native languages. In this case the teacher play a very important role.

I think the amount is enough, it lets the student to practice what he or she see in the class but at the same time, it gives the student free time to play as every child should do.

This is Actually San Marcos School District not Vista.
But we removed our TK 4 1/2 year old who has an IEP due to the lack how our daughter was treated!!! would never recommend this school and this is in our school district this is our school shouldn't rate is high enough to God is not based on compassion and care of your child because they went right this high.

I have one child attending this school for 2 years now. Pros: Outstanding teachers!!! Fairly new school grounds. Cons: Horrible parking. Somewhat diverse population. Mediocre parent involvement.

My daughter has been attending this school for 4 years now. As a fifth grader, she is doing well in school. I have showed and consistently talk to my child about how hard working will get her into her dream university. As a parent, I chose to volunteer one full day at school, and I see how what the teachers have done for the children. As many parents don't know, this school is made up of many ivy league teachers. Ranging from, Columbia, Yale, Cornell, UCLA, Harvard and more. Plus this school has Smart boards equipped in every class, and lap tops, and 6 desk tops available in every classroom, this is like a dream school for many. The teachers works together as a team to educate the children in this school. The last years, I have had the honor to serve some wonderful teachers, and learned how they truly care for their students. This school might not be in the best district, but it is a school where teacher really teaches. Parents, I just want to note, that in a good school there are bad teachers, and in a bad school there are good teachers. Most important is how we raise our kids to challenge themselves, and how to make a difference in the environment they are in.
