Horrible experience. Would not recommend, teachers are extremely inexperienced. School is dirty and the auditorium is super small and stinky. Cafeteria staff sent my son to all day field trip with a box of cereal and warm milk. This school is disgusting and needs some serious changes!

Palomar Elementary school provides a nurturing environment and has a strong sense of family. I have worked at another local school and see the positive difference the staff and parents make at Palomar. My daughter has attended this school since kindergarten and I always felt it was a safe, caring and positive environment. I have nothing but positive experiences to share about this great little school. It reminds me of how schools used to be when I was growing up, very nurturing.

I was very disappointed with the principle and the way she handles herself professionally. I was trying to take my son there ( due to the fact I heard good things about the school) The principle denied him because of one of his family members goes there and is often late to school. I would have never found out the exact reason she denied him, but she turned around and told the principle from his current school. She never took the time to ask me or my son anything he was judged by what his cousin does
