10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI wish I could write a five star review. I would only give credit to those hard-working teachers unfortunately our experience at the school has not been very positive. There is a huge problem with bullies at the school and I feel like there isn’t anything being done about it if a child has a special need and requires a combination the school will deny an aide for your childParent Review3mo ago - Park Elementary School

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI bought my home in 1993 in Mill Valley because I Heard that the Public schools in Mill Valley were fabulous. I am a single mother and have raised two beautiful daughters in this community. We chose Park school mainly because it was closest to our house however, I have to say that it was a phenomenal choice!I have nothing but fantastic things to say about the teachers and their devotion to the job!
