My daughter is in Kindergarten, she also did TK program last year. Teachers are enthusiastic, and experienced. Kids and parents are nice and kind. I feel like facilities have a way more room to be developed, I am mostly satisfied with every feature of this school.

We came from Fremont which has a good reputation for great schools but coming here it's light years better than over there. All the parents are so eager to helping any way possible. The faculty and staff are super friendly and very accommodating. They spot weaknesses in our children and then spend extra time on those areas to make them better. Their Anti-Bullying program is very good too. Our kids love going there and never miss a day.

We were on the fence about if we should home-school or go into the public school system, and we eventually decided to enroll her at Twin Creeks. I can say that was one of our best decisions. Evan Ono is a fantastic teacher and he has really helped our daughter along. You can tell he has a sincere interest in his student's progress and even takes time to add comments on their daily assignments. We are ecstatic about her growth so far into the program and really hopeful for the rest of the year.

Twin Creeks is a wonderful school! Very involved, parents and nice families. Wonderful principal and amazing teachers. It is our little home away from home! Our teacher last year was the Gate teacher and we were very impressed as always.

Great diversity. My daughter starts K in Twin creeks last year and she loves it. Her teacher is the best teach I have ever seen. How much my daugher loves her K teacher? She cries and said she does not want to leave Teacher Beth on the last day of school. Lots of project and I knew the teacher did lots of extra work. We are lucky.

My son made a huge progress after Mr. Ono's Kindergarten class. The teacher is so devoted and professional. My son became a great reader and writer. My son became outgoing, talkative and cheerful after attending Twin Creek. Other teachers according to other parents are also excellent. The staffs and principle are so friendly and they always address any issues quickly. We love Twin Creek Elementary.

Excellent school, teachers are very involved, as are the parents. The school, along with the District, are very concerned about exceeding the educational goals and technology in today's fast-paced society.

The best year ever for our 5th grader. New leadership at the school is taking it back to previously held positions. The school is getting back the drive from the past and will soon become the best one of the San Ramon Valley School District.

Barb Mallon - Twin Creeks new principal has made a tremendous difference! She is an expert on helping gifted children programs and gave our boys challenges that previous leadership was unwilling to consider. I think Twin Creeks will be a 10 this year (still waiting for test scores to be posted) but either way the school is on its way to becoming a top rung performer in the San Ramon Valley School District. Also some of the teachers are amazing - especially in the lower grades.

The school is making a positive change after the change of the principal. There are also more involvement from the parents after this change. My 5th grader loves her classroom and taking classes on a laptop. My K grader likes the attention from her teachers. This is definitely a good school!

I like the community. I have a kindergarden. The teachers are so sweet. My daughter is so happy with the school's environment. We are glad to be at Twin Creeks.

I'm happy my girls are there. Since the change of the principal, the school is improving a lot!!

It makes me sick to know my son attends a school that has such lower API performance. Yes, teachers are friendly but do not have the high standard for academic achievement in mind. There are some kids behaving really bad in the school and teachers do not seem able to discipline them. I am surprised to see some parents and students demeanor seem matches with those in lower socioeconomic school district. We paid such a high price for the house in SR hoping my son would get good education, but the school makes me feel being in Oakland.

This is our last year here, and I am glad it's on to Iron Horse! We've been in this community a long time, and have definitely experienced an overall decline at this school. Have to agree with some of the other parents about the ineffective principal. Things weren't so bad when my older kid was at Twin Creeks 7 years ago. I feel bad for the families who still have kids here.

No complaints whatsoever about the principal, test scores or anything else for that matter. My child is doing very well and is quite happy. Overall performance and happiness are far more important to us than test scores.

My children have been at this school for a few years now. The teachers and principle have been great. The office staff is wonderful with the kids. My boys are learning and actually like going to school. Sure some good teachers have left in the past. In the past few years teachers have left due to pregnancy, moving out of state, and left to find work closer to home. However, with these great teachers leaving we have gained some other great teachers too.
