This is a very strange school. There is no sense of community among the parents, the kids seem disengaged and disconnected from each other. We pulled our daughter out after 6 months she was unhappy and we felt that she was getting a very mediocre education for the money. We were looking for a more well rounded experience and this school did not offer any of that. It is a beautiful setting but that is where it stops. Even the teachers and administration seem session than thrilled to be there.

As a guardian of a rising senior and his older sister, I am thrilled to share our wonderful experience at PacBay. My senior came to the US as an international student and spent his first high school year at a smaller private school in San Francisco. He decided to transfer to PacBay in his sophomore...
