My experience at Mission San Jose Elementary (MSJE) was amazing! I had a great overall learning experience and ultimately, had a really fun time there. Most of the teachers are really nice and kind, and they help you whenever you need it. The school counselor also hosts regular activities where students can meet each other and participate in fun and engaging events. In the five years that i've been a student here, I've never had a problem with any person /teacher and everything here is so nice. There are also lots of school activities, such as a Halloween Parade, Science Camp, going to Ohlone College to see a play, and Movie Nights. The field trips are also really fun and exciting, and we always learn a lot from these experiences.

Niles Elementary is a great school in overall academics and other extra curricular activities

Even if other people are so mad about the API scores being high, I see nothing wrong with it. The teachers don't 'drill and fill' us, but carefully go through the practice books with us. As for the dress code, even if the teachers DO wear inappropriate stuff, at least they teach properly, with the correct respect towards both students and parents.

I agree with the othe parent about a K teacher dressing inappropriately. On Halloween, her costume had a skirt that barely covered her behind (and she's not young). It was disgusting and a poor reflection on the school. Don't get me started about the fishnet stockings...

The school got good academic scores. The office staffs are not supportive and their attitudes are really bad though.
