Going to Point Vicnete was very well. I started in 1st grade and had the amazing principal Becky Cash. Although she unfortunately left in 3rd grade, our new principal Beth Hadley wasn't all bad. Although she will never be as good as Ms Cash. 4th grade will most likely be the worst year because Mrs Soto is very rude. I do not know about Mrs Wang because she recently got the job. 1st 2nd and 3rd grade was AMAZING with some of the best teachers I have seen (I'm a sophomore at Peninsula) 5th grade was okay, as Outdoor Science School was amazing. Hope I helped make up your mind on a elementary school :)

3 children at this school. Principal is helpful and stern but knowledgeable. Teachers are fantastic! School activities are offered to students during and after school. Parents for the most part are easy going and great to volunteer with. My kids are happy.

There is a lot of parent participation, and the school has a warm and friendly atmosphere in my experience. It is also qu...

The office admin at the school is terrible. she is always making assumptions and comments that are inappropriate. She is rude and pushy. The principal should spend more time developing leaders in the school and not directing the traffic.
