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.

This is a great little neighborhood school. I went here since I was five years old. The academics are wonderful. It does not prepare you for college but it does help for middle school. The sports are okay but its a elementary school so there isn't really a rational expectation for it. I didn't have one bad teachers out of the seven years of going to this school. I can't say anything bad about it because there is nothing bad about it I just hope that the kids who now go here do not have to experience the stress of the SFPS threatening every five or so years being either shut down or joined with another school but it happens although this school is wonderful.

My daughter is only in Kindergarten but she attended Pre-K at El Dorado as well and has loved school since the minute she walked through the doors. The teaching staff is skilled and responsive. There is a wonderful sense of community. The leadership is excellent and the PTA is very active.
