A rare experience to have AMI certified staff through middle school. As a parent who had questions about the efficacy and process, PCS has delivered on every single metric.Tons of support. Child centered and communicative. Lots of parental involvement and supportive sessions throughout each individual stage.As a parent we started at PCS in elementary and are now nearing the end of middle school and we are more confident by the day in our child's progress, ability to handle the world at large and grow into a fully realized, compassionate and motivated individual.

We plan to stay from 3.5 y through Middle School based on the exceptional community of students, parents and teachers and the impact they collectively are having on our children.

Absolutely stellar. Surpassed all expectations as a school and community.

There are three problems here that make this school unacceptable. One is that they are too rigid in the traditional Montessori tradition. Children aren't allowed to explore their creativity through play and make believe. Another problem - they don't have a playground! When the children play, they must go to a nearby park (that's on a busy street...and the play area isn't fenced). The final straw for us is not only the lack of diversity among the students, but the director's total lack of interest in that aspect. It would be very helpful for the director to take some continuing education classes regarding issues of diversity. She seems to have been educated in the distant past, and her thinking has remained in that era.

I feel that Pacific Crest School is a respectful school that allows a child to overcome any fear of expanding their friendship to peers and adults and increasing their knowledge of different subjects. My daugther who is in 7th grade (going in to eighth) has recently told me that no matter who joins the community they are always welcomed like family; she personally has been at that school her whole life and the teachers and children alike are like a family to her. The principal is always very pleasent and easy to talk to, she has been very helpfull to my children. My son and two daughters have found at least 2 things in that school that could very well help them in the future. This school is very amazing and welcoming to anyone, we will definatly stay in touch with them.

We sent out son to Pacific Crest Middle School. He did very well in high school and college, for which Pacific Crest deserves much of the credit.
