GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

We have not had a teacher that we didn't like. Most teachers have great reputations. There are very few teachers that people talk poorly about or don't recommend.

We don't utilize the extracurricular activities because we have other commitments. I'm not sure of the quality of the programs.

It's a poor reflection of our school system. The facilities are awful. The emphasis is just on getting by and not creating true leaders.

Our experience at Kaiser was one of gracious and personally involved teachers along with a loving and down to earth culture on campus.

Our 6 years at Kaiser have been great, the teachers, support staff, principal, PFO and Foundation all work together to create a wonderful learning environment. Their handwork has paid off. Kaiser was just named a 2016 CA Gold Ribbon school.
