We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Whenever I have dealt with this school I have gotten a warm and welcoming vibe. Unfortunately my kids did not attend Heights but, like all the schools in Oakland it has a high standard of education.

I am a former student of Heights school and I have suffered six years at this school. My worst complaint is the principal, she is the worst principal imaginable. The only thing that I really liked about Heights was my fourth grade teacher. She was an awesome teacher!
