School Reviews
4   6/9/2020
San Elijo Elementary School is a great learning environment, but there are a TON of kids. So much, in fact, students that may need help in a certain area, but an adult may not even notice it. Overall, it is a great place to learn, but the amount of kids is horrendous and may even affect the learning ability of students.
