We are extremely pleased with the whole-child education our children are receiving at The Presentation School. We drop them off in the morning knowing that they are in the best hands, and the school’s mission of Love, Learn, Lead is truly in alignment with how the school is run. If you want an “above and beyond” approach, TPS certainly provides this, committing to growth and excellence in all they do.

We have had nothing short of a phenomenal experience at the Presentation School. The education has been top-notch, and the caring and compassion that all the teachers and staff show make this school a welcoming, safe and fun environment for kids. Moreover, the school community is quite tight-knit, friendly and supportive. The community at TPS is easily the MOST welcoming and openly supportive school community I’ve ever encountered! With the school’s focus on both education and social emotional learning, we are convinced that there is no better school in this county.

We love this school!! There is something truly different about a Presentation student. They are polite, playful & confident. The faculty, parents and students are compassionate and welcoming. Our son came to TPS in 6th grade and has grown spiritually, physically, emotionally and academically by leaps and bounds. Can't say enough great things about this school!

We have been satisfied with our choice to send our child here. There is a welcoming community and I feel like the teachers and staff are very caring and responsive.

Underwhelmed. We look at it as the price we have to pay to get all the things that budget cuts have removed from our public schools. Nothing special about curriculum, head of school can be dismissive and combative with some parents. Not clear on school vision. If there were a better option in town we would take it. Not confident my child will be able to attend a truly competitive high school coming from here.

My experience at this school was scaring to both me and my friends. I have been two three middle/elementary schools and The Presentation School was the most academically lousy out of the three. I have never seen students set to lower standards. The service project this year was completely botched. With no communication between the administrator of the project and the students, I found my peers and I completely lost. I have participated in school functions and within the school community even winning public speaking awards, 2x science fair distinguished youth awards, and 4x writers fair winner yet my achievements have not been celebrated or shared with the class. I am extremely dismayed with the academics here and I found myself taking classes through Northwestern online over the summer to prepare myself for the SSAT.

We have a child in the second grade and Presentation School has been a wonderful choice for us. The are focused on math and language in a small classroom environment. The teachers are very experienced and dedicated. My son took violin lessons weekly last year and the school has hired two full time spanish teachers for language arts.

This school is amazing. There is hardly any of the "drama" associated with most schools, and the kids are taught living skills and values, beyond just pleasantries and etiquette. They are taught to be good people. The Presentation School is worth commuting 25 minutes to. We love it and our daughter is about to go into 8th grade here. We are sooo happy and relieved that we can trust her to the wonderful teachers and faculty that are here.

All three of our children have attended The Presentation School. I appreciate the academic rigor balanced with an emphasis on the arts. The kids have learned public speaking, presentation skills, and participated in the school musicals. The teachers are innovated and love their students. The small class sizes allow each child to have their individual needs met and the school has an inclusive and welcoming feel. I can't imagine surviving middle school with out The Presentation School!

We commute twenty minutes to get to Presentation School where my children love to go. The teachers and administration are all excellent. Academic standards are high and I know my children are being prepared for greater challenges to come. Our entire family has developed friendships within the school community and we enjoy all that Sonoma has to offer. I couldn't ask for a better school.

My family and I are exceedingly impressed with The Presentation School. The school s academics are progressively rigorous with the student s individual needs in mind and it s staff focused on providing a top tier quality education. The school community has been very gracious and welcoming with new families. Presentation provides an array of enrichment programs that range from Rock Climbing to Drama and each experience has proven to be absolutely first rate. My daughter is surrounded by academic faculty that inspire kids to learn in meaningful ways. The school also manages to create an environment that inspires children to keep their moral character in check and it s evident by the large number of exceptionally friendly, well behaved student body.

We moved from London a year ago after exploring school options all over. We picked Presentation in Sonoma. The combination of solid academics, stable values, an eclectic community and surprisingly world-class extracurriculars in and around school ranging from ballet to music to climbing to drama to soccer makes Presenation an extraordinary value for those who don't have to be in a city every day.

We've had a great experience at Presentation. Really strong academics and what seem to be by far the highest standardized test scores in the area. Our kids compete on b ball, vball, golf, rock climbing, track and cross country teams. We have a great arts, music and drama program and at a time when class sizes around Sonoma approach 25-30 in elementary school, an average class size of 16.
