Because the school is fairly small, the teachers are able to give attention to each students needs while maintaining an orderly classroom. The teachers enthusiasm and love for the students is evidenced in and out of the classroom. It is not just about education though. It is also about building the character of the students through godly instruction, consistent modeling of thoughtful behaviors and use of kind words. The administration has worked hard to build the school into the kind of place kids want to attend and that parents are happy to support. The administrative staff is stellar as well! The tuition is competitive and there are not nearly as many "hidden costs" as other area schools. My children have had a wonderful school experience going to Grace Academy!

Lupita is the owner of this home daycare and she's amazing! She's very loving to the children, very…read moreattentive, and communicates well with parents. My son was attending her daycare for 8 months and he loved it! My son looked forward to going to daycare everyday and made friends with everyone. Every week he'd come home with projects he made at daycare and would talk about what he learned and what he did for the day. Lupita is punctual and communicates well with me if my son isn't feeling well. She also sends photos to my cell phone to update me on how he's doing. I can honestly say I feel 100% comfortable and safe sending my son to daycare here. She recently moved her daycare to Novato so we had to find a new daycare but it didn't work out for us so my son is back with Lupita for the meantime until we find something closer to home. I live in San Rafael and work in San Rafael and now drive to Novato to drop him off to Nessa's Daycare and I'm OKAY with that. It shows you how much I trust Lupita. I'm willing to do the drive back and forth just for peace of mind. Thank you Lupita for your services! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy safe home daycare.

He's now in the Midrasha program and lives it. He has many great friends. My favorite time of the week is picking him up after class and driving home. He always makes great conversation about whatever he just learned or experienced and he's engaged and feeling positive. He loves the fire circle and would attend more often if he could. I'm so glad he's continued after bar mitzvah. My daughter is preparing for her bat mitzvah right now. She's very excited and motivated, studies on her own and looks forward to attending services since she knows all the blessings. She also has made great friends there. There are fabulous teachers at Rodef. The administrators are wonderful also and they continually introduce new programs and activities that include everyone and improve the school. Staff are always available. Our family is very pleased with the religious school program at Rodef Sholom

We live in Napa and did an open enrollment to YES! All I can say is this school is amazing! They…read moreare like a private school where they have small classes and amazing teachers, as well as the principal and Mrs. Sonia in the office, they are the cherry on top. I've asked the new parents what made them join us at YES and they reported that "in addition to all the amazing benefits of the school [they] joined because of the principal and the staff. They really are one-of-a-kind. They work with each child one-on-one, which really helped my son who can be a handful at times. My daughter came in reading at grade level and by the time she finished she was reading at college level and reading Charles dickens!!!! She even enjoyed reading, I don't know what the school did but they goodness for them. The school utilizes project-based learning just like new tech hiand they provide one on one coaching to the kids so that each kid reaches their highest potential. What I love most about the school is the parent involvement. We've got to several schools and been a part of many PTAs our last school had almost 500 kids in it and the state threatened to shut down the PTA because we only had three volunteers. The school has like 50% involvement rate! End it isn't a requirement to help out it's just happens to be such a cool environment that people naturally chip in and help out. This is also the only school that I have ever been to where the principal helps out as much as she does. She and Sonia, the office admin are the heart of the school. They know everything that's going on and they are happy to help. The other schools we have been to the secretaries are too busy that don't involve themselves in the schools activities. It really makes a difference that anytime I have a question I can go to the office and they help me find the answer. They are also at every school event, supporting everything that we do. The school is like a family! Even the PTA has called family club. You should check it out! Even if you live in Napa you're able to go to this awesome school with open enrollment.

Our son worked with Paige for several years from elementary school to high school graduation. Our son is now moving on to college and we already will miss our weekly tutoring sessions. She was instrumental in assisting our son in improving his study skills from mathematics to English literature. Engaging him in a way so he would not fear a particular problem in math or to get through a reading assignment. But mostly just building his confidence in his approach to school assignments, study skills, testing and preparing for college essays. Best decision and investment we have made in nurturing our child through grade school. Highly recommend!
