Mckinley Avenue Elementary School

I am giving this school 5 stars because of the quality of education that was given to my daughter while she attended. My daughter is classified as a gifted student. She has been since the second grade and now she is in the sixth grade. Gifted children at this school are grouped together by grade and they all move along to the same teachers the following years. The Gifted / GATE teachers at this school have to be some of the best teachers that I have ever met. Throughout her years at this school, my daughter has constantly scored into the 90% on all California Standardized tests. This speaks tremendously of the teachers that my daughter has had. Most of the other students in her class also achieve these high scores. The teachers make learning fun and have always been to challenge their students. One thing that I love is that these students are always polite friendly and very well spoken for their ages. You don't hear too much slang or "ghetto" talk from these kids. These students are more like family members than just a bunch of kids to their teachers. Have your child tested for participation in the Gifted/GATE classes. It is the best choice for your children.

The staff at this school are all dedicated to educating children, in a loving supportive environent. Parents are not only welcome but encourage to get involved.
