perfect elementary schoolto go to if you want the teachers and principal to hate your kid. and the principal will always be rude to your kid by putting on a fake smile and then act all nice when other counselors are around.

Posted by a parent on 9/19/2024Overall it's a good school with quality teachers that are a little strict which can be good for lot of kids. The staff was great in the office before now they are extremely strict y the books I.e. kid is 1 second late gets stopped and called into office for a tardy slip. There aren't alot of bullies
Posted by a parent on 1/31/2018John Adams is a safe school. It is clean and well maintained. There are cliques; it seems based on racial identity. It's not mean but it's obvious. It's an average school, if your child performs in the median you will be pleased. My daughter thrived academically and was not encouraged by teachers bu
Posted by a parent on 11/19/2016The teachers are really responsive and care for every kid. The principal stays well involved in school activities. The parents frequently and happily volunteer in the classes. Having YMCA in the same campus is a huge blessing. A nice cultural blend will surely help in the development of young minds.

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageCoastal Academy is a homeschool ISP. They provide excellent support, activities and community for homeschool families. I've been a part of this community for 7 years now. I've graduated two of my children from here and my 8th grader still attends. Coastal Academy gives us the support, we need yet the freedom to homeschool the way that is best for our family. I highly recommend them.Parent Review6y ago - Pacific Explorer Montessori
