The Alamos Elementary School opened in 2004, keeping the name of a one-room schoolhouse that served children in rural French Valley for many years. Now it's the home of the Alamos Owls. Each morning on Owl TV, students broadcasters lead the school in the Pledge of Allegiance and give announcements, awards and birthday greetings. The Owl Education Foundation, a nonprofit organization formed by teachers and parents, has been instrumental in keeping music, arts and in technology in the school.
While located in Murrieta, Alamos Elementary is one of 17 elementary schools in the Temecula Valley Unified School District. The schools serves student in kindergarten through fifth grades. A child care center is also located on campus.
