Private Schools

This school is the best for all your kids. Your kids will have the best time here because the staff and the principal are the best people in the world. I recommend this school for people who enjoys school. This school is the best because the teachers understand your problems and solves them really quick. Especially Mr. Riener, the principal, he is a kind loving guy who helps kids deal with their problems and occasionally can have a really nice talk with you. This school is the best!

Love This School...

cool

good school

I have a son in six grade at Holstrom Academy and he is thriving. He was too anxious being bulled in the public school to learn and progress. We love the principle and Rupp and the office manager Cynthia is wonderful.

This school is a great fit for my son! He is thriving at Halstrom and we are so glad to have switched from public school

hhjh

I love the fact that they have family

My daughter has been at The Berkeley School for five years and she's thriving in this vibrant, progressive school. She's happy, engaged and challenged here, and loves going to school. As parents, we're thrilled to have discovered this gem of a school with superb academic and social experiences, right in the heart of Berkeley. The class sizes are small and every classroom has two teachers, which really sets it apart from other private schools. The kids can't just sit back and fly under the radar. They're seen and supported, and challenged. Thanks to the passionate teachers and staff, we've seen our bright and curious kid overcome her struggles as a reluctant reader to being the kid who's always got a book in her hand. She's learning how to learn, in a creative, engaging place with lots of real-life immersive experiences. Her class just spent two days at Fort Ross on the Sonoma Coast where they stepped back-in-time to be real-life characters from the 1800's. One of the first things we noticed, and continue to appreciate, is the joy of learning, whether it's math, science, history, writing, music, art or Spanish. We've found the family community to be warm, inviting and friendly, (and they love to throw parties!) The Berkeley School has been around for more than 50 years and in our experience, every year it just gets better and better. It's one of Berkeley's best private schools!

I like Prospect very much, the teachers are great and support the student's learning. The teachers try to work together to avoid having large projects overlap. Prospect has great science and math programs, and Prospect is trying to become a green school, by composting, gardening, reducing waster, and encouraging carpools/bus riding/walking or biking. It is most definitely a great school.

Awesome teachers that really care about there students.

Very beautiful place and clearly built with love

The school is chill 🤭
