We love Ceres! The principal, the teachers, are all stellar. I have been asked would you transfer your children elsewhere? I say, why would I. My children are happy, safe, and are enriched daily intellectually, emotionally and socially.

Great school! The special education/integrated preschool is amazing! I can't say that to many schools support their special needs students as well as Ceres. Mrs Gonzalez is very friendly and approachable. I Can't express enough how important that quality is in a principal. Everytime Mrs Gonzalez encounters my child she greats him/her by their first name despite having over 300 students enrolled at Ceres. We will miss Ceres, as my child is promoted from preschool this year.

My eldest son has completed one academic school year at Ceres Elementary. May I say I was completely satisfied with his academic achievement. He had a wonderful teacher who helped him reach his full potential. He has now entered his second academic school year and I'm extremly pleased so far with the start of this new school year. My youngest son is currently enrolled in their full day kindergarten program which is exceptional. The principal is great, the teachers are well qualified and the PTA here is the best! I'm currently not enrolled in PTA but I can clearly see all the effort put into the school by them. They have plenty of fundraisers and many incentives to motivate our children to help reach their full potential and want to go to school everyday. This new school year Ceres has incorporated valet drop off service in the mornings which is awesome. The congestion has reduced significantly because of this service offered by volunteers. I'm a proud parent of Ceres Elementary.

The best interest of the student is the focal point of this school. They are so helpful and whenever we need aid in any area of study or school behavior concerns they are right on top of things. Thank you Mrs. Sanders.

My son goes to this school and started in Kindergarten with a combo class. He has excelled in all subjects. He is currently in 1st grade and on 7th level sight words and reading in the middle of school year 2nd grade level. The entire staff is so caring and enthusiastic about their children and their school. I am so proud to have my son there and feel blessed that all of my children will get to go to such a wonderful school.
