This family loves John Muir. The environment is inclusive for all kids and any time there is an event we see so many parent volunteers. We are a little community, and appreciate both the academic and social education our kids are experiencing at John Muir.

Overall this school has improved drastically from what it had been a few years ago. The principal and vice principal are very kind and keep in touch with the teachers and students, maintaining a healthy environment for everyone. Most of the teachers are kind, well experienced, and make learning feel pretty easy. Although every now and then as a student we'll come across a teacher all of us dislike, they usually are fired relatively quickly or go through training and seem a lot better. Personally I don't see why this school has such bad ratings. It has its flaws, like they aren't completely on top of communicating with parents and the school lunch used to taste gross. But incrementally they are handling these and as soon as people complain the staff is good at fixing whatever the issue is. I understand parents / guardians may be worried sending their students to a school with low ratings, but this school is memorable (in the positive way) and I believe whole heartedly the students that attend will meet good people, feel like they've learned topics well, and enjoy attending school. As a graduating student, I feel like I've grown a lot with the help of my supporting and caring teachers, and I've met people from classes that make me feel like I'm part of an important community.

Great school, great education school has a big feild everything it needs
