Presidio Middle School

Not pleased with the school expected much more from it teachers communication with kids and parents doens't exist. Noone cares about your child at this school just asking for money every Wednesday. Will be looking to change the school next year. Very dissapointed.

I was nervous about sending my daughter to such a big school but we're been pleasantly surprised. Mostly excellent teachers challenging work a reasonable level of homework good drama PE sports chorus jazz band orchestra and outdoor education options like trips to Yosemite. It probably helps if your child comes in knowing some classmates and can learn well in a fairly traditional classroom setting.

I think that Presidio Middle school is a excellent school our Principal is a smart and energetic woman she is always doing her tireless work with all the teachers and all the personal at school. Teacher are excellent kind and care about the students education.The programs are very good specially Math programs Art and music Computer P.E their sport team are great the Outdoor Education trip are excellent for the kids there that complement the education that Presidio gives to them. The parents work all together to help our school and support them through PTA and Fundraiser activities. I think Presidio has all in one its just a great well coordinate public school.

The parent who gave Presidio one star I wonder about his/her child. Howevr one can't completely blame a system. Could it be his child has challenges and need special attention? Only this parent and field expert would be able to answer but for my child she is excelling at Presidio in her AP classes. She has several amazing teachers who work tirelessly; I'm really impressed especially when there is so much cut-backs in the public schools. So for the parent with the kid that has been 'damaged' by his/hers experience at Presidio Middle I'm very sorry to hear and hope you find the perfect environment for your kid.

My son stated to attend this great school. My experience is the best so far teacher are nice and care about the students and recognize their work the staff is nice . Their elective are many they have a strong math program that my son likes. I think is just a great school.

This is not a perfect school and the teachers are not that great. It is a very "public education" school and they let you know they can do so much...in so many ways. Yes there are a couple of good teachers that care but mostly in the 35 plus student classroom who is really benefitting? I think these reviews are not accurate. My child was getting A's and B+ until they attended this school. The cracks are so big and apparent that any child that is looking to make new friends at a new school are almost given the thumbs up to fall straight down them. There is no social schooling as far as how to behave or handle responsibility ie.extreme homework communication...! Now we have to deal with therapy counsellling tutoring and a new school. What a waste of a childs time.

Presidio is a great middle school offering a wide variety of electives from homemaking to jazz band to orchestra. Most teachers are supportive of different learners and are willing accomodate their needs in the classroom. Fortunately the few teachers who are not on board are leaving the school this year!

The teachers are fantastic and really care about hte kids. They go the extra mile to work with the parents.

I LOVE the music program and the music teacher Ms. Gomez. I had always thought that my child was nonmusical and was astonished when Ms. Gomez awakened a real interest (and talent) in her. My child is really excited about learning her instrument and looks forward to band class each day.

Presidio provides a great variety of courses and its music teachers are very dedicated.

Presidio is an wonderful school. The school is safe and my student is challenged and learning a lot. The teachers make themselves available at lunchtime to help and work with the students! My older son attended Presidio and is now attending an independent high school. He finds that he is completely able to keep up with his classmates who attended other independent schools!

It's a great feeling as a parent to enter Presidio Middle School at the end of the day and be greeted by the principal with a smile and even stopping a second to chat. This personal connection is pervasive among the teachers and associates as well. It is no wonder my son remains enthusiastic about going to school and talking about his teachers schoolwork and the after-school program. Thumbs up!

The school is well run with dedicated staff and principal and assistant principals. Teachers are pretty cool too. The best of all is the after school program run by Beacon.

Despite a tight budget Presidio offers an array of electives and extra curricular activities. BEST BAND! Love the staff and teachers and parental involvement!

I have a two daughters at presidio (6th and 8th) and am continually impressed with the staff teachers and the principal. Everybody is available for questions/concerns the teachers really care about their students and there is lots of extracurricular activity. Great sports music and arts programs. Super after-school program by the Richmond Beacon.

Ok so did you see the building beautiful. The teachers are great and dedicated the admistration is very responsive and the kids are super happy there. At list my 2 kids are. Also this is the only school with an outdoor education trip to either Yosemite or Olympic Parc in the spring. One classroom also takes the kids to Washington DC for 10 days. You know a school is good when you child wants to be drop off early and picked up as late as possible. The after school program is a lot of fun with lots of activities - never mind it's free . The music program wow. Ok sorry I could not find anything wrong.

It's a great school with a great staff and it's a really fine stepping stone to get our children from the nest of Elementary School into the freedom of High School and beyond.

Amazing administration...great teachers and a music/school band program department that is completely off the charts!

I love presidio! the teachers keep everything fun and exciting and with a wonderful arts program. outdoor ed is so unique and a wonderful experience.

My child loves school so much. The wonderful and excited outdoor ed program is her favorite.
