I could not sue them because one of my children had to finish the Abitur. He passed it with a low GPA because favoritism was on number one. We figured it out after we did several experiments... teachers used unbelievable words you would not use it in your mind. Probably Kid with parents in the board, parents how spent a lot, or non German has the best chance to get a good GPA. But it definitely to 80 percent not the work what it is graded. I put my other kids in the independent GISSV Saturday school which was great managed until the main school of GISSV took over 2 - 3 years ago. Just recently is the most unprofessional leading of the Saturday school on email answers - no reactions, just slow in everything. Sadly I had to pull my last two kids out of the Saturday too. I heard that they had to reduce the classes from the other parents, because they kicked out the teachers or it is just a miss management. In case you think about to put your child in one of the schools of GISSV - be prepared of unprofessional miss management and cross the fingers that your child will be under the favorites.

Eventually, I had my first meeting with the principal and it sounded like she agreed with me but then after a few meetings she started being rude and seemed like she took the teachers side ( I didn't want there to be any " sides"). she started calling me in for unnessararry meetings that I didnt want to be a part of. I later felt like some of the teachers hated me... My genaral teacher, my art teacher, and the principal! ( who was super unhelpful and rude)... I coudnt have left to middle school any faster DO NOT SIGN YOUR KID UP FOR THIS SCHOOL.

My children have attended The Waldorf School of the Peninsula for the past four years. While many…read moreof the teachers are caring, dedicated, and deeply invested in their students' growth, the same cannot be said for the school's leadership and administration. Unfortunately, the administration is dysfunctional, lacks transparency, and demonstrates poor alignment in priorities and resource allocation. The school has a large population of neurodivergent students, yet the current educational support structure is alarmingly inadequate. This year, the entire "educational support team" for the Mountain View campus (grades 6-12) -- consisting of ONLY one learning specialist and one counselor -- has been stretched even further to cover the Los Altos campus (grades Kindergarten-5). The administration claims to have a "robust educational support team". However, a staff of 2 people is far from robust and is completely insufficient to serve the needs of the entire school (Kindergarten - 12th grade). Despite my repeated efforts to raise this concern with the administration, they failed to take any meaningful action. While the teaching staff genuinely care about their students, the lack of administrative competence and adequate support services significantly undermines the school's ability to meet the needs of all learners. There are many excellent public and private schools in the area that are far better equipped to support diverse students. Your child deserves that level of care and commitment.

They just give a book to read for English, and they don't give you a standardized curriculum for testing , and most topics like grammar(phrases, part of speech), reading comprehension and vocabulary is not included. They don't even have history class. Science class is just doing science experiments that don't follow a standardized course. Not only they don't have a standardized course but the experiments are usually something to learn a long time ago, eg refraction or reflection. On top of behind in most classes, they also spend too much time on arts, music, dance that are optional classes to take in high school. And they have a fundraising thing for 8th grade that took up all the time for learning and it is mandatory. So Waldorf, therefore is not a good place to spend your time and money on if you're serious about education, GPA, and getting into a good college

I've always wanted her to attend a Catholic school and after spending just one year with St. Joseph, I am positive that it is one of the best decisions I've made for her yet. St. Joseph's community is so inclusive that we feel like part of one big intertwined family, regardless of grade. Not only is my child thriving academically from extremely attentive teachers, but also, she is being guided to uphold morals and values that I truly feel are helping her grow into a kind and successful human being. School faculty are constantly looking for new ways to improve and asking for feedback from parents, truly showing they care! Mrs. Placencia, Mrs. Usis, and Mrs. Holmes have been incredibly kindhearted and attentive to all of our needs. Every morning we are greeted with warm smiles and positive energy. After school, my daughter is ecstatic to tell me about what she learned and how much she adores her friends and teacher Ms. Villagomez. Now that we are on summer vacation, my daughter is counting the days until back to school! Cannot recommend this school enough, I am confident that my child is in extremely capable and loving hands. So proud and grateful to be a part of this wholesome learning environment. Thanks, SJMV!
