Rocklin Academy Turnstone
#2 Best Public Elementary Schools in Sacramento Area
Parent: Turnstone is a very unique school. It’s a Core Knowledge school, so my children are also receiving a solid education in social studies and science, music and art. World history and geography are taught at each grade level, in addition to American history. The curriculum spirals and my first grader was learning all about electricity at the same time as my fourth grader! The teachers work together with each other when similar units coincide. I appreciate how each unit is brought to life— hands on learning, art, and tech projects are always going on. For example, 1st grade has Egyptian Day, and 2nd had an Ellis Island day, 3rd has a Colonial Faire, and 4th does a Medieval Feast, etc! The teachers really support each child, and I always feel in the loop! Math, Lang. Arts, & writing are rigorous and there are high expectations, but also a lot of support. The principal knows each kid and family. The office is super helpful. We have had a wonderful experience at this school!
