Red Bridge

This used to be a good school but it has quickly gone downhill. When I drop my kids off in the morning, I always see students fighting with other students and when a teacher tells them to stop, they start yelling at the teachers and a few times I've seen them hit the teachers or the vice principal. I was shocked to see them back at school the next day! It seems like the principal has no control over these kids. My child has come home asking what certain words mean like the N word, s word and f word. I was shocked that kids would speak like that. If you are lucky enough to get into the Filipino classes, you're lucky. Otherwise, I'd stay away.

Bryant is a caring community of teaching and learning.It truly is a community school that focuses on every child so they can reach their potential. A great place to learn and have fun!

We want to share our experience to help other parents considering Daniel Webster Elementary. Our child was exposed to hostile comments from multiple staff members, and peer bullying happens frequently. The school took very little action to address these problems, and our concerns were often dismissed or ignored.Many staff, including teachers and noon monitors, frequently raise their voices at students, creating a tense and intimidating environment. Teachers appear disengaged, and there is little communication or accountability when problems occur. The new principal does not show the same level of care or leadership that we’ve seen at other schools—she rarely checks in or follows up on student issues. The overall environment feels unstructured and poorly managed, almost as if no one is truly in charge. Our child often felt anxious and unsafe while at school.Although the school advertises a “wellness center,” it seems to exist mainly to take funding from parents to pay staff, rather than providing meaningful support for students’ emotional well-being.

Moscone is an amazing school. The kids feel safe and excited. The kids, teachers and parents all work together to create a safe community environment.

Our family has had two kids go through Starr King Elementary School. They both enjoyed learning and making friends here. The teachers are dedicated, caring, and do well at their job. I’m impressed with the principal and her leadership in improving all areas of the school. There is great attention to improving the GE program and balancing out inequities. The YMCA-run afterschool program is great.

Great community. Loving teachers. Has been for many generations.
