Hacienda Environmental Science Magnet, K-5

The Hacienda Environmental Science Magnet, a California Distinguished School, is dedicated to teaching students to explore the natural world around them. We have a unique one-acre outdoor classroom site featuring California native plants and pond communities. All students study science with a resource teacher as well as with the classroom teachers. The staff emphasizes academic achievement in the classroom through specialized instruction in science, including scheduled indoor and outdoor laboratory lessons and a computer-training center. An outstanding balanced music program accommodates the extended day. We are working to achieve our goal of having students reading at grade level by the end of the third grade. Hacienda has a strong literacy program that encompasses the Accelerated Reading Program, 1st through 5th grades and a Cross-Age Tutoring program to help struggling readers in grades K-2. We also have in grades 3-5 an Academic Interventionist for students needing some extra help in targeted areas.  In addition, we will have an after-school tutorial operating on the same premise for grades 1-5. Our Homework Center is available to students in the morning and after school to support regular homework completion. We incorporate Accelerated Math in grades three and five.
