This school is remarkable! From its teachers to its support staff to the office, every department cares for the kids like no other school. They consistently look for ways to support the students academically, emotionally and socially. It's one of a kind!

This school cares more about their reputation then the well-being of their students. They rather turn a blind eye to the issues rather than try to solve them, and then act like it’s all okay when it’s not. PTA is extremely prejudiced and most of the staff is VERY unprofessional. Me and several of my friends have taken out our kids from this school because of how unprofessional it is. By far one of the worst schools I’ve ever enrolled my kids to. My children have never had such terrible mental health until they came to this school. Every single day they come home because of how emotionally drained they are from how they are treated by the staff.

The school used to be amazing. The class sizes are too big. Kids aren’t getting the proper education because staff is emotional short. All my kids are struggling and are behind from the last couple years. The school cuts corners on staff and it’s a huge safety issue as well as education. I’ve always preached how amazing this school is and am sad that it’s not the same. I hope to see changes soon because it needs it.

Student to teacher ratios are very low, rarely over 20:1. Parents are involved and students are all well mannered and polite. The peer buddy program lets the older kids build their self confidence while they help the younger kids. The younger kids in turn feel more accepted and confident.

Millville School is a terrific small school. Nestled between ranchlands and pastures, it offers kids and parents a friendly, welcoming and warm environment. The setting only enhances the beauty of this school where education comes first, but so does the well-being of each child. A great school!

Millville Elementary School is in the small town of MIllville, CA. We may be a small school, but we are big in academics. We have API scores of over 900 and has earned the honor of being a California Distinguished School. Our principal Mrs. DeSantis is very hands on, she works tireless hours for the good of our children. There is not a student in the school whose name she does not know and she greets them everyday. The teaching staff is outstanding as well, they strive to help the students reach their full potential. My son has attended Millville since he was 3 years old, starting with 2 years in preschool and he is in the second grade now. I am very pleased with how his education is progressing. I am a proud Millville Parent!

Millville School is an educationally sophisticated school wrapped in small school charm. It has everything a child needs for a solid and successful education: excellent teachers, great support staff, terrific parents, loads of extracurriculars and the ability to answer to the needs of all variety of learners. Millville maintained its arts and music programs even through the budget crisis! I love this school!

Millville Elementary School is small school with a big sense of community. Our family has been privileged to have three children attend Millville. Two of our children attended kindergarten through eighth grade and we currently have another in the second grade. Each of our children have different academic strengths, and sometimes, academic weaknesses. Those academic strengths have been fostered at Millville and my children were encouraged to attain even higher academic success. When my children struggled, they were given the personal instruction necessary to help them overcome the obstacle and I received the support I needed from the teaching staff to assist them at home. Along with measurable academic achievement, Millville provides many opportunities for leadership and character development, promotes appreciation for art and music, embraces technology and supports a plethora of sports opportunities. But Millville's greatest strength, in my opinion, is the sense of community. The administration, teachers and staff work in partnership with parents and families to provide the best educational experience possible for each and every student. We truly are a team!

Millville School is a fantastic little school. So friendly and welcoming. My kids all attended Millville; each received the challenge or the support he/she needed. Children are treated as individuals and their education is personalized. The teachers are the finest around and always practice the school's creed that "Kids Come First."
