We had one daughter start middle of second grade and one begin in kindergarten and there was no looking back. We were genuinely welcomed by an outstanding community of parents and educators that, for many years now, have had nothing but the best interests of our children in their hearts. For eight years we've seen our two daughters grow both scholastically and socially and we attribute much of that to the hard working teachers and administrators. One thing that truly stands out is the involvement of parents, grandparents, siblings, aunties and uncles. It's very unique in that so many volunteer their time and have a heartfelt interest in seeing everyone's children do well. We love Good Shepherd, and most importantly, our children love it too.

The unique part about this school is the kids constantly want to be there for any activity they host. Whether it's afterschool child care or a school sports event. The kids of all ages interact and are friends. You can tell that this community is strong and the parents / staff care. Sending my son and daughter to this school has made a huge difference in their lives. My wife and I are all in on Good shepherd Pacifica. Best catholic school / private school in the Bay Area because it excels in academics 100 percent but also in raising confident kind smart children. If you are lucky enough to get in due to limited class size and one per grade. Definitely sign up quickly!

It's a little better than a few schools in Santa Clara county because back when I was here as a civilian, there was a very low dropout rate. Students I worked with here were very studious and have high achievement levels. Those who are taking advanced classes usually do well without outside help which never happens at schools in my county of residence. Extracurriculars are hassle free. Back when I worked in Millbrae, I could tell kids here enjoy being a student athlete here. Drawback: If you are a visitor on the weekend and need to use the field, please register for a permit. This school is closely monitored

We were disappointed as my son who has anxiety and ADHD had already made a connection with the teacher and made new friends, which is really difficult for him. We felt defeated and discriminated against, but we had no other choice. We scrambled to get set-up with the school assigned to our new address which is sunnybrae and although I admit I was a little apprehensive because of the scores the school has compared to Hillsborough, i now feel it's the best thing that could've happened to us. I feel so extremely lucky to be able to send my son to this school. We're moving back to Hillsborough in the fall and I'm choosing to keep my son at Sunnybrae because of how amazing and supportive they have been with us. All the staff is so kind, knowledgeable and most importantly, welcoming. There's a lot of diversity, acceptance and everyone is treated equally. My sons class was actually at a higher level than Hillsborough, so don't judge a book by it's cover. I highly recommend Sunnybrae.

It's been 5 years since my review and I now have an 8th grader and a 4th grader at St. Dunstan's…read more We have been at the school since 2015 and still love it. The principal, faculty, and staff truly care about each student and it shows. If you are considering private high school, I highly recommend St. Dunstan's to lay the academic foundation. My daughter loves her teachers and said that the high school entrance exam was relatively easy compared to what they are learning at St. Dunstan's. I've spoken to many parents who transferred their kids in for middle school who've said they wished they had started at St. Dunstan's sooner because it is such a welcoming and warm environment. They have a ton of extracurriculars and events. Sports intramurals for K-3 and competitive sports for 4-8th. We have musical theater classes and performances. As well as Spanish classes and technology. Every month there are family friendly events- from family movie night, Casino Night, Lobster Feed, the father/daughter dance, family bingo night, lady knights and men clubs events, and so many fun events. We have the spring festival and middle school dances. Fun Day with games and an end of year school wide picnic. The kids are kind, respectful, and inclusive. The parent community is amazing and we have made lifelong friendships with other families. Choosing St. Dunstan's for our kids is probably one of the best decisions we have made for their academic, emotional, and social well being. We are grateful to Dr. Sandoval and her team for creating an environment where our children are thriving!

We originally were very worried about his transition and leaving all his friends and his known environment. It has been smooth transition so far. The Families in St Dunstan are very welcoming to our family. My son doesn't normally play team sports that involved balls, he made an exception with the baseball team in St Dunstan. He has thrived so much over the last few months we transitioned. Not only his grades are excellent but also his mental wellbeing has improved so much. He was encouraged to participate more in the class and he did, which he didn't do in the previous school. He participated in the class Spelling Bee that required him to speak and spell in front of everyone which was impossible for him to do before. The school staffs are very nice. They are very attentive of my son and our families. The teachers that he has, have been so accommodating and supportive in making him thrive in school. The school has Science, technology, Spanish, Art in Action and Creative Art. I was allowed to teach how to plant tulips and vegetables in their school plots that the Science teacher incorporated it to his lesson. There are many Non Catholic families as well and you wouldn't feel that they weren't part of the community. In terms of education, I observe that some of the teachers are willing to give extra help to those that need help which they do outside of the school hours. They also have resource teachers for reading and mental health. I also see that there will be accelerated Math for those who are advanced in Math. This will start in 5th grade.
