Dapplegray Elementary School 3011 Palos Verdes Drive North, Rolling Hills Estates, CA 90274

"My son has done well at Dapplegray and I think the focus on education, community and developing full skill sets as complete individuals at the school are excellent. The Art At Your Fingertips program is amazing! (My kid could identify Picasso, Matisse, Georgia O’keefe, Van Gough, etc at age 5). We also love the enrichment opportunities they offer after school at the school. I would recommend this school to others."

"I have a lot of great things to say about this school, but I'll just sum it up. Dapplegray was the BEST school ever and i wouldn't regret going there. Shout out to Ms. Kidd for being the best teacher!"

"I went to elementary school here in 1951 - the first through the sixth grades. We chose the colors for the school: maroon and gray. The teachers were fine. I had Mr Bowen for third grade. Good man. I learned how to ballroom dance in the auditorium. I still love to dance. And I still love to learn."

"If you're a sour person, your experience here will be sour. Both my children attend the school, and we've had nothing but a wonderful experience here. Just like any school (or situation in life), there will be some bumps in the road, but the teachers, staff, fellow parents and families have been wonderful. And yes, the traffic in the morning is tough, but again, make the best of it and time your flow. We leave the house a bit earlier, and arrive to school in 10 minutes, with no stress. The resources and curriculum that they provide for the children are unbeatable. My 2nd grader is doing math problems that I don't remember doing until almost 4th/5th grade. There are smart boards and iPads in every classroom, and a real focus to make sure that our digital natives are provided the technology (and curriculum tailored to it) to be able to compete in today's world. The principal is definitely straight to business with no fluff, but I'm fine with that, as he accomplishes what needs to be done and ensures that everyone's keeping the kids' safety and best interests always top of mind. I can only hope that all future principals are just as focused on our kids' best interests. Thanks to all of the teachers and staff at Dapplegray. There are plenty of us out here that appreciate all that you do and are constantly amazed by how lucky our children and we are to be part of this amazing family at Dapplegray."
