I love the teachers at Hermosa View! My children have flourished academically during their time at Hermosa View because of the fantastic educators. We are so happy to be a part of this special school community. Everyone that works here truly cares for the students - from the Principal to the librarian to the front office admins to the maintenance staff! This is a campus full of kindness, learning, creativity, and joy!

My daughter went to Hermosa View/Valley for 5 years, and we couldn't imagine having a better experience with an elementary school. Her teachers were excellent, she enjoyed going to school everyday, and most importantly, she really developed a love of learning. We moved out of state last year and still miss Hermosa schools!

The Hermosa View and Vista Schools have provided an excellent learning environment for my two young children. The teachers bent over backwards during COVID-19 to keep the kids engaged online. And being back in person at a new campus (Vista) has been amazing. The kids are so happy to be back, and they are surrounded by a dedicated support system. I have found the staff and administrators (at all levels) to be professional and timely with information. They have emphasized the safety and well being of our children at all times. It’s a great community, and our public schools are full of energy, involved parents, and a tight knit group of kids. I feel so fortunate to have such a solid public school system for my kids just like the one I had when I grew up.
