San Rafael Elementary School

Waverly provides a wonderful and supportive environment for learning. It truly is "progressive" education. As kids mature though each grade, they return to subject matter, delving more deeply into each topic to facilitate a depth of understanding and a life long love for learning. The school itself is wonderfully diverse (in all ways!) and respectful. The Head of School is inspiring, compassionate and committed, and his leadership has had a profoundly positive impact on the students, teachers and Waverly's wider community. The Farm is a fantastic part of the school, giving kids an amazing and vital greenspace in which to learn and play. The teachers and staff share a passion for the school and its approach to education and this is evident in everything from the ways they come to truly "know" each student to the detailed narrative reports created each semester. We love Waverly and our kids are very happy at the school.
