I have to agree with many of the comments made. I think Sagebrush is a wonderful school, However it has been quite the challenge since Kindergarten. My daughter is in first grade and is behind in reading, writing and arithmetic. I believe the expectation is that children know all of the basics before starting kindergarten. We now find ourselves trying to play catch up. While that is not necessarily a bad thing, it does put a lot of pressure on the children and the parents to excel at a very fast pace.

Very disatesfied with the way teachers treat the children. Also the way the principal promises things she does not plan to follow thru with.

I can't say enough how wonderful Sagebrush is. I have a son who had a speech impediment and Victoria, the speech specialist, has help him overcome all his obstacles. Both of my children attend the Before and After School Program and that entire staff is awesome. When we move further away from the school and I was willing to commute to the school in order for my kids to be happy because they have great friends and super staff that cares for their well being.

I agree with most comments here, Sagebrush is an excellent school. They do teach all the basics, as well as challenge the children to achieve. The principal is very involved and always out front to speak with the children and parents alike. My son likes his school and when we move, I will do my best to stay within the Sagebrush boundaries! By the way, excellent rated per CSAP scores and is 'traditional calendar' (not track).

2 of my 3 children attended this school from kindergarten through the 5th grade and the 3rd until we moved. The teachers in this school are very motivated to teach which in turn builds excitement in the kids to participated in class work and extracurricular activities. I was extremely happy with the school, teachers and staff.

Sagebrush has exceeded my hopes for a great school. The Staff which whom I had the pleasure to deal with were outstanding people and very helpfull. My son has enjoyed it more than any other school he has attended. The programs they offer are very precise to a childs need. The teachers really seem to care and give alot to each child. Sagebrush is a school that my child will attend until he moves on. The only down side is that it is very expensive for daycare which is offered at the school, and some of the extra curricular activities that the school gets involved in is also expensive.

Sagebrush is an excellent school for higher ability kids. Unlike many elementary schools today, they start ability grouping in math, reading and writing even in kindergarten. My 2nd GT daughter is now in the 4th grade and both girls have been challenged at Sagebrush. For extra curricular activities there are choirs, chime band, PE intermurals, chess club, and others. Lastly, the teachers are excellent and the principal keeps a pretty tight rein on the school so behavior is pretty good.

I have to laugh at the parent who said the principal was never around. I pick my children up every day and Ms Johnson is out there every afternoon as a crossing guard. She is at every single event that the school sponsors as well.Sagebrush has a wonderful math program. Both my children excelled at Sagebrush and ended up in GT. The volunteer parents are to be commended as well. Sagebrush is a great school.

I had a kindergartener and 2nd grader there in 2003-4 year. Kindergarten seemed weak. We had to teach my daughter the basics of reading, the school did not do much. 2nd grade seemed strong on many subjects, but not math. Again, we had to teach my son the basics of arithmetic. We even got a note from the school asking us to teach the kids how to do basic addition and subtraction, apparently the basics were not included in the math program they use. Good social studies program. The leadership from the principal seemed weak, never seen here outside with the students or parents before or after school.
