Bahia Vista is a wonderful neighborhood school that is very well organized and creates a positive community and learning experience for all students. The teachers and staff are incredibly dedicated, and work hard to make sure students educational and emotional needs are being met.

We were a little hesitant sending our kids to such a big, diverse school. We had heard all the rumors of its problems. We sent 2 kids through Davidson. We could have gone private school but, ultimately, our kids wanted Davidson. We have been so happy with the school, the teachers, the community and the friendships my kids have developed. The diversity has been an advantage for them. It’s made them empathetic and fearless. This school has taught my kids more about the world than any middle school in Marin.

principal lacks leadership and communication skills. Lots of behavioral issues including violence on campus, littering all over the community shopping centers and local neighborhoods, doing drugs in cars before and after school. The TL High School principal personally goes out herself to check on traffic control, safety, and construction. Joe D the SRHS principal is rarely seen - he might consider shadowing TL’s principal for a few days to see how a high functioning administration works and how to also work well with your community and neighbors and how to keep your students safe. There are SR students literally jumping over metal fences at construction sites and running for cross country class in the middle of a high traffic road — running in the middle of the road against traffic up a blind curve. It’s complete chaos.

Wonderful school! Both of my kids got into the college of their choice. Great teachers!
