About Railroad Canyon Elementary School

Railroad Canyon Elementary, home of the Roadrunners, runs the only Dual Immersion Program in Lake Elsinore Unified. Spanish is the target language: students in TK through second grade learn to read and write in Spanish first, formal English reading and writing are added in third grade, and instruction shifts to both languages through fifth grade.

Our program aims for strong reading, writing, listening, and speaking in two languages, high achievement across subjects, and skills in cross-cultural communication. Students can keep building Spanish through language courses in middle and high school, which connect to Temescal High School's International Baccalaureate Program, and seniors who show proficiency may earn state biliteracy recognition. Space is limited, and families commit to the full program, including regular attendance.

Across our school, students take part in visual and performing arts, structured PE, clubs, and enrichment beyond the school day. English learner and special education services are coordinated through the district.

Lake Elsinore, CA Ages 2-5
Private school

All Aboard Preschool in Lake Elsinore gives children hands-on, multi-sensory, center-based learning environments where they can thrive. Teachers observe each student closely and customize the curriculum and individual lesson plans around instructional goals set for that child. The approach comes from a belief that God created each child unique in their needs, interests, personalities, gifts, talents, learning styles, and development, so no two children are taught from the same script.

Earl Warren Elementary School

Lake Elsinore, CA Grades PreK-5
Public school

Earl Warren Elementary School welcomes Transitional Kindergarten through fifth-grade students in Lake Elsinore Unified School District. The campus calls its children EWE Scholars and carries the message 'EWE Scholars Go To College' alongside its No Excuses University identity. That college-going theme starts early: the school asks students to see themselves as capable learners while they build the skills and habits they need for later grades. Earl Warren's mission joins a rigorous, relevant education with opportunities that prepare students to engage with a wider world. Its principal's welcome emphasizes strong instruction, positive relationships, kindness and inclusion in daily school life. Families can take part in events, volunteer and stay connected to classroom learning. Teachers and staff work with families as children grow academically and socially across the elementary years. The school sits at 41221 Rosetta Canyon Drive, Lake Elsinore, CA 92532.

Expectations Academy

Lake Elsinore, CA Grades PreK-12
Small class sizes Homeschool learning center Private school

Expectations Academy began in the fall of 2019 as a learning center for homeschool families, and in the summer of 2020 it became a private TK through 12th grade school for working families who wanted an alternative to public and charter schools. We cap every grade level at 14 students. Core classes meet Monday through Thursday. High school core classes wrap up by 1:00 p.m., with an optional extended day for electives, community service, or occupational training. Fridays are reserved for advanced academic enrichment and field trips. Annual tuition is $6,000 for TK to 5th grade, $6,250 for 6th to 8th grade, and $6,500 for 9th to 12th grade. We also run EA Learning Center for TK to 12th grade independent study students enrolled through another school of record, EA Care and Summer School for children 4.5 and older, and occupational training for ages 15 and up. Optional Beatitudes classes, grounded in our statement of faith, take place outside academic class time.
