"My child has been going to that school since they opened. It s an ok school. I think the school needs to be more proactive on teaching the kids basic stuff (neat work, no wrinkled papers, titles, dates) The school is just overcrowded 30-35 students per class. I think the principle needs to learn how to better influence the kids. She is one that is quick to pass judgment and I don t think she gives the kids a fair chance. In a way it seems she tries to let the kids set them self up for failure instead of encouraging them. Thank god she is retiring this year, hopefully they will get a much more positive principle. They have a couple of teachers there that do not need to be teaching elementary kids, maybe high school kids would be a better fit for these teachers. If the school wasnt so crowded. I think it would be a great school"

"This is my child's second year at Marina Vista. The facility is great, but we have had issues with her Teachers both years. Kindergarten was a Teacher who could not/would not control her class and didn't do enough to really teach/engage the children (this teacher is no longer there). I hoped first grade would be better but it turns out it's worse! Granted there are 4 other first grade Teachers that may be great and I have met and spoken to a couple of other Teachers at this school that seem really wonderful. The Principal appears/talks like an old school Principal which I was encouraged by, but does not run a tight ship. I don't know what other Pittsburg schools are like, but I would say that this school although beautiful on the outside is a mess in many crucial ways that affect the kids. These Teacher's need some additional training or help in managing their classrooms."

"My daughter is in Kindergarten, and she is very excited about going to school at Marina Vista. She is making good progress with reading stories to me, sounding out words, she knows her right from left, and she's even writing and telling me stories! My daughter has alot of energy, which I was initially concerned about, but her teacher seems to be very patient and resourceful for my childs needs, as well as for the other students. The staff are great and they seem to relly care aout the children and their safety. Thus far, I don't feel like I could've asked for a better teacher for my child's first year of elementary."

"This is a brand new school. And so far I think they have done a good job at organizing the structure of the school. I have no complaints so far about the staff. Lets see what to come this school year."
