Falcon Pass Elementary School

The teachers generally seem nice and caring, but some teachers use antiquated negative reinforcement techniques such as clip charts and they take away recess time from children as punishment. The kids also generally don't seem to be able to socialize with each other much throughout the day. In kinder, the focus seems to be on learning by rote memorization, when perhaps learning through play might be more fitting for that age. It also doesn't appear that there is much differentiated learning for kids who excel. There is a GT program, but the students only spend a very limited time in the GT class.

I love love love this school, the staff, the environment, the family engagement, everything! We are planning on moving to a home that's unfortunately out of the district and we are 100% going to be transferring our kids back into this school. The teachers are all amazing and well trained to work with more "challenging" students. They hold tons of events that keep parents and the community engaged. We love this school and I am not looking forward to our kids having to leave after 5th. 10/10

Sometimes this school and be frustrated because slot of kids bulky other kids so there should be a chance of kids filling a application of they get bullied or racism.

St. Clare is a hidden gem in the Clear Lake area. They are family center and encourage parents to be involved in their child's education. I love the school events and how we can be active members in the school community.

I have two children who have attended Bay Area Montessori House for going on three years now, and I could not be more grateful for this school. One of my children spent two years in public school and was so miserable, just trying to get through basic homework created endless arguments and frustrations that wore our whole family down. When we found BAMH, everything changed.My other child started here from the beginning, and both of them are flourishing. Their strengths are celebrated, and at the same time, they are given the time and support to grow in the areas where they need it. The learning environment is calm, joyful, and respectful, and the sense of community is truly wonderful.The head of school is amazing, she is a true AMI-certified Montessori guide, which makes all the difference. As a side note, Dr. Montessori never trademarked the word “Montessori,” so any school can use it in their name whether or not they follow authentic Montessori practices. If you are looking for the real Montessori experience, make sure you choose a school like BAMH that is AMI-certified.This school has been such a gift to our family, and I can’t recommend it enough.
