John O. Tynes Elementary School

I want to send my kids to another school next year. Not satisfied.

We are so glad to be a part of this school for the last 7 years. Tynes is a very diverse school with great teachers & an amazing principal. We love it here!

I am very pleased with this school. I moved from South Orange County back to Placentia and frankly, had lower expectations for any schools in the area. In contrast, I am more happy about Tynes than I could have imagined. The principal is fantastic. She met my needs and assisted me with a small issue I had. She has a wonderful attitude as do all of the teachers and staff. I have never seen such a devoted PTA either. My only complaint is that more parents are not involved, but that has nothing to do with what this school offers. I recommend to anyone from special needs to GATE, this school has it all. Also, a really nice campus.

I agree 100% with Tynes having so much to offer the community! Not only does it have wonderful programs, including a GATE magnet program taught by outstanding GATE certified teachers, but the staff as a whole works hard to see that every child learns. Teachers collaborate in order to create structured yet engaging lessons meant to yield high student achievement and learning. The principal is also incredible! She has created a positive school climate as well as listens to the community's concerns and values their input. All in all, the programs, teachers, and leadership at Tynes is first class! Amazing school!
