This isn't just a neighborhood elementary school any more. Parents drive from all over the valley so their kids can attend here. Thus, the parking is a NIGHTMARE! (over 400 children attending)

My son that was up. no parent apologize to my son Ethan and no parent apologize or try to talk to me about it. My son has a yearbook so I'm gonna ask him to go through and tell me every kid that was involved. I will not post that information, but I would like to know who these parents are that think that this is OK.

As a parent, finding a school that truly resonates with me and provides an enriching environment…read morefor my children can be daunting. However, from the moment my kids set foot on this campus it was clear the school prioritized the whole child and their well-being. The teachers and staff foster supportive relationships for students and parents in the way they collaborate and show careful attention to all they do. I feel deeply valued and most importantly, confident that the school is a safe and nurturing place for my little ones. My kids look forward to going to school and love spending time with their teachers! Whether they are exploring the farm, tending the garden, going to structured play or even learning in the kitchen, every aspect of their day is filled with discovery and joy. The curriculum at the school has a remarkable way of opening children's minds while providing practical applications for life. This balance ensures that learning is not only engaging but deeply relevant. I wholeheartedly recommend Napa Christian to any family seeking a school that prioritizes development, fosters strong relationships and encourages a true love for learning.

Napa Christian presents as if they hold those values, but it's superficial and performative. The principal is extremely unprofessional. She is charismatic on a stage, but in person she lacks compassion, empathy and respect. She cares more about herself, the performances and the school than the students in it. Please, for the wellbeing of your child, don't send them here. Our child was mistreated, bullied and humiliated not just by the students but also by the teachers. We spoke to staff and teachers about some of our experiences here at the school and we were met with unprofessionalism and disrespect.

I just moved to the area and was trying to enroll my 3rd grader into the school and Mrs. Diane was very unhelpful. She had an attitude from the moment I first calles the office. Her line to me was "I don't know what you want me to tell you" ... Doesn't make it very comfortable to feel that way when your trying to place your 7 year old in a new school. I am a front desk receptionist at my job where we deal with injured workers all day. Do you think if they walked in and I was treating them with that kind of respect, that they would ever want to return? No! The first person you come across sets the tone for the entire workplace ... I am sorry but Mrs. Diane has not set a good tone with me on multiple occasions. I understand its the beginning of school and its busy and frustrating but so is life and if you can't handle it then find a new career. Needless to say I enrolled my son in a completely different school because I would much rather that then have to deal with Mrs. Diane each time I need to deal with the school. I would think really hard Mrs. Dana about finding yourself a new candidate for the front desk....

Summer is still brewing, but the feeling of Spring lands on the minds like a freshly started brand new beginning. I dropped off the first grader first and walked the fourth grader forth. She saw her neighborhood friend at the front of the line laughing with his buddies. He glanced at us, but he was too cool to be able to pull away and say hi to us. I totally understood. Who's young enough to be able to say that their elementary school had a website? Mine did not. We had chalk boards and dittos instead of web postings and emails. I walked to school uphill sideways and everything was downhill from there. Sorry, that's a whole different story. After four years at McXXXXXXX Elementary, it's exciting to be part of a promising new curriculum. And to top it off, my daughter was interviewed about her new school in the local paper. http://napavalleyregister.com/news/local/article_f2bed938-ab50-11df-9fe0-001cc4c002e0.html It's looking to be like it's going to be a great school year.

If you can get in on the long waitlist and you are someone who is looking for more than just a school but a community I recommend this school without hesitation.

Because the school is fairly small, the teachers are able to give attention to each students needs while maintaining an orderly classroom. The teachers enthusiasm and love for the students is evidenced in and out of the classroom. It is not just about education though. It is also about building the character of the students through godly instruction, consistent modeling of thoughtful behaviors and use of kind words. The administration has worked hard to build the school into the kind of place kids want to attend and that parents are happy to support. The administrative staff is stellar as well! The tuition is competitive and there are not nearly as many "hidden costs" as other area schools. My children have had a wonderful school experience going to Grace Academy!
