GreatSchools Rating
Parent Rating Average
We transferred our two children into Washington to be part of the DLI program. We were allowed to visit the school before committing, and my oldest admitted that this was a better school within only 30 minutes of being on campus. We absolutely love everything that the school does for the students, the PTA is absolutely incredible and super active. Both of our children love it here. Sadly, the new principal is leaving this year, and those are big shoes to fill, but hopefully the next principal will be as proactive and engaged as Mr. Alvarado has been. I wish the academics were more rigorous, however, I do understand the argument for not pushing the academics as high as they could be, as many students would not be able to handle the work load. I do feel like my student has allowed himself to be distracted a bit , but socially and culturally, this school is doing so much that makes me praise this school and recommend it 100%.

"Amazing small town of two coffee shops, 8 restaurants, 3 bars, two grocers, plenty of hair salons, a dog park, a playground, a huge indoor historic swimming pool, and 5 min walk through the tunnel to beach and parks. It’s amazing and a hidden gem/bubble of the Bay Area most don’t know about. You cannot see it from the highway. Lower crime because the highway basically is a massive wall sectioning off the town and only two ways in/out."

"Great area - much safer on average than most of the surrounding areas. When moving to the Bay Area last year, we looked in Berkeley, Albany, Oakland, Richmond, Pinole, etc. In terms of price, safety, and activities, we felt confident choosing Point Richmond. It's an easy walk into the little historic downtown with shops and good restaurants, and nice hiking paths are also within easy reach for daily runs. It's also close to the bridge and an easy commute to the rest of the East Bay or north just across the bridge to Marin. "

"I have lived in the area for 2.5 years. There are car thefts, burgularies, abandoned vehicles, prostitution, and half way houses in this really small community. I have never ever lived in such a high crime area. At least 5 neighbors on my block and the next had their homes robbed. It is basically Richmond not Point Richmond."
