Everything is textbook based, until the teachers create a test with nothing you’ve learned on the textbook. The lectures were little to nonexistent and there isn’t anything to pay attention in class because it’s either going over your homework from the previous night or from the textbook. Had a secu
Posted by a student on 1/19/2022My daughter is a junior at HHS and she rates the school a four out of five. She tells me she feels safe there, enjoys the happy, laid back atmosphere, and feels like those who care about their grades and want to get into a good college are getting what they need, more or less. There are good and bad
Posted by a parent on 4/20/2016Run to another school. The administration is a farce.The students unruly, the security guards part of the problem and the teachers aren't getting paid enough to care. Generally speaking of course. My experience with this school is totally negative from beginning to end. I will never encourage anyone
Posted by a parent on 4/13/2013This school really needs to refresh on how to keep kids safe there. There are always fights and the new principal just doesn't seem to have a handle on things. I preferred the previous principal, things just seemed not so hectic.

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageEl Sobrante Christian School has been a wonderful experience for our family. Our child absolutely loves it here and is always excited to go to school. Mrs. Gonzalez, the kindergarten teacher, is incredible—she genuinely loves her students and goes above and beyond every day. Thanks to her dedication, our child is already reading, writing, and has developed strong math skills, all in kindergarten. The environment is warm, nurturing, and focused on helping kids grow both academically and personally. We’re so grateful to be part of this school community. Highly recommend!Parent Review1y ago - St. Joseph Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSt. Joseph’s School has truly been such a wonderful experience for both my daughter and family. From the very beginning, we felt welcomed and supported, and it quickly became more than just a school — it became a community.The staff genuinely care about each student and take the time to build meaningful relationships with families. They follow their mission and values to the fullest, teaching kindness, respect, and responsibility in ways that kids actually enjoy and understand. My daughter comes home excited to share what she learned, and it’s clear she feels safe, confident, and happy there.What I appreciate most is how they balance strong academics and faith with fun activities and memorable moments that make learning special. We’ve made great memories here, and I’m truly grateful for the positive impact St. Joseph’s has had on our family. I would absolutely recommend this school to anyone looking for a supportive and uplifting environment for their child.Parent Review3mo ago - La Casita Bilingue Montessori School
