    We are so grateful for the incredible experience our son has had in kindergarten this year. This…read morewas his first time in a Montessori environment, and we were so impressed by how quickly he adjusted and flourished. It has been a joy to see him become more independent and watch his love for learning grow every day. Both teachers are truly exceptional, and Ms. Soni has been particularly wonderful in helping us understand our son's strengths. She is always so approachable during pickup, taking the time to answer every question and providing the reassurance we need about his daily activities and progress. Knowing he is in such supportive hands with Ms. Soni and Mr. Christensen makes all the difference, and we feel very lucky to have such a dedicated team!

Ever since our…read moredaughter joined their class, we have seen a significant improvement in her confidence and personality. They truly helped her come out of her shell and always take wonderful care of her. Both teachers are very supportive with studies and always make sure the children feel loved, comfortable, and encouraged. Our daughter loves going to school every day and is always excited to be in their classroom. They create such a warm, positive, and caring environment where children can learn and grow with confidence. We are truly grateful for all their hard work, patience, love, and dedication toward the children. It was one of the best decisions to send our daughter to such a wonderful classroom and school.

    I've been extremely impressed with my daughter's experience at Bella Vista. It's clear that this…read moreschool truly cares about helping each child reach their full potential. The teachers and staff are wonderfully communicative and genuinely work to build strong partnerships with parents. The coursework strikes a great balance--challenging students while still ensuring they fully understand the material.

    My experience with Bella Vista Christian Academy was beyond disappointing, and I ultimately removed…read moremy children because of it. The overall environment felt negative and, at times, openly unkind. I witnessed staff speaking to students in ways that were belittling and inappropriate. In one instance, a teacher used name-calling toward students--something that should never happen in any school, especially one that claims to reflect Christian values. Administration was equally frustrating. Concerns from both parents and students were consistently dismissed rather than addressed. Instead of feeling heard, I felt brushed off and judged. During a very difficult time in my personal life, I expected neutrality and professionalism, but instead experienced what felt like bias and a lack of basic understanding. Leadership was particularly concerning. While interactions could appear polite on the surface, the follow-through told a very different story. Decisions felt inconsistent and unfair, making it hard to trust the administration at all. The front office experience made things even worse. Shannon, who is often the first point of contact, was repeatedly rude and unprofessional in my interactions. The tone was unwelcoming and dismissive, which sets a terrible example for both families and students. First impressions matter, and in this case, they reflected a much deeper problem within the school culture. To be fair, not every staff member reflects this environment--Mrs. Quilcy stands out as kind, patient, and genuinely supportive of students. She deserves recognition for the way she treats families. Unfortunately, one positive example does not outweigh the broader issues. For a school that promotes faith and character, the lack of compassion, professionalism, and willingness to listen was deeply disappointing. I cannot recommend this school to families looking for a supportive and respectful environment

    We feel very grateful to have such wonderful teachers caring for our child…read more Ms. Maria is truly amazing--she is always so warm, welcoming, and greets everyone with a happy smile. She takes great care of the children and encourages them by appreciating even the smallest things, which really helps build their confidence. Ms. Jeena is also very kind and caring. Our little one feels very comfortable with her, and she was one of the main reasons we felt confident moving our child into her class. Ms. Nomi is just as wonderful. She takes great care of our child, and it's so nice to hear our little one talk about her at home. All the teachers create a safe, loving, and positive environment for the children. We truly appreciate their patience, dedication, and the care they show every day. Thank you for everything you do!

    Highly recommend Montessori School of Tracy! Like many of us, I was so nervous to send my Covid-era…read morebaby out into the world and start his school journey, but from our first tour of the school, I started to feel like it was going to be okay. I was given very detailed information about what the program would entail and was able to see a class in session before enrolling. As my son completes pre-k in a few weeks, I have to give a shout out to Ms. Mayte and the team (especially Ms. Seena and Ms. Miriam) for all they have done for us. My son started the school year pretty shy and apprehensive and has blossomed into a bubbly and social preschooler. It's been an amazing thing to see. The school gives us regular updates throughout the week on the Brightwheel app and anytime I've had any questions or needed some time to chat, I would hear back from his teachers promptly. We get photos through the app as well that are always exciting. Sometimes it's a snap of playtime, a celebration, or completing a milestone and receiving kudos. Along with the basics of letters and numbers, my son has gotten to learn about different cultural holidays and has loved telling us what he's learned. He always seems to be doing a new activity and doing the half day program has definitely been the right choice for our family. Ms. Mayte took the time to really get to know our son and has been instrumental in all areas of his development this year. I can only hope that he will continue to have great teachers for the rest of his academic journey!

It was their mistake and instead of allowing my child to complete the full year there, they took it upon themselves to remove my child and tell me that I would not be able to get a district transfer. Please note when I viewed the TUSD elementary boundary map, my address qualifies for that school. I even came into the office during enrollment season and verified it with the staff there. I took the proper channels to ensure my child was qualified for that specific school. Not only did this stress me out, my child who was comfortable with her teacher and class, we had arrangements friends to help pick up my child is now emotional distraught to know that she has to start a brand new school that is even farther from our residence. Mind you the school we were attending was not full and had plenty of room, their reasoning to pluck my child out was to ensure all the upcoming kids in new development had a space (which i live in) The staff at TUSD is disorganized, rude and without taking responsibility of owning up to their mistake.
