The school is really dated though and very uninspiring to look at. Whoever designed this campus should not be an architect. It's boxy buildings with dark wood siding and concrete columns. It's a fairly large campus and they have lots of space for their sports fields.

Why Does NUSD Own Land Off San Andreas?…read more You know that big lot on San Andreas, off San Marin Drive (near San Ramon Elementary)? The gynormous empty lot with the "No Trespassing" sign? NUSD owns all that land. It's one of their closely guarded secrets. They've owned it for over 20 years. Why? And why haven't they done anything with it? They give good (young) teachers pink slips at the end of the years and ask parents to pony up money "to save our schools," yet they're sitting on a piece of property that must be worth $15M. So... why not donate that land to the city and create a nice park over there? There are no parks on that side of town, just an elemntary school with Hell's Own Gophers creating holes that kids trip in constantly. Or create a Little Theater there that all the schools could use for various functions and performances. There are lots of things that could be done with it. But the first thing someone at NUSD needs to do is own up to the fact that they own that property. (Or just sell it and then ditch Common Core, which is ruining our kids.) Someone do something resembling anything, please.

Let's put it this way: I got all A's at NHS... but I went to college, worked 10x harder, and earned B's and C's during the first year. I wasn't prepared. Teachers were just OK. I graduated 10 years ago, and I can't really remember any teachers that stood out and made a huge impact on my life. I met some great friends, though... and created some great memories. Go Hornets!

My son is now in 1st grade: He loves his school and looks forward to hearing about God and reading his bible. His reading and math skills have caught up as last year he was behind when we started at Marin Christian. We are so grateful to see how great he is doing and my son is so proud of his achievements here. My daughter was only at Marin Christian for Jan 2024 to June 2024, then transitioned to high school. She says what she learned in those few months have stayed with her and that she is much closer to God and this has helped her find her way at high school. She also was behind as she was home schooled over covid. In these few months this school was able to help with confidences and taught her what she was missing to do great in high school. She loved the middle school and we wished that we find this school sooner. Thank you Brenda

Any teacher worth their weight in salt knows that not all methods work for all children, and that instruction should be differentiated. Not here. He was monitored and mainly reprimanded, but not taught . The school was adamant that this child had a developmental delay, when in actuality his behavior was due to being overwhelmed in a class of 25, give or take.. He was evaluated, and the only remarkable results were that he is very intelligent. Happily, he is thriving at another school where he is shown praise , warmth, & attention
