"Pretty good. Strong PTA. PTA seems to be driven by "select few" families. Environment is clean. Professional staff."

"With high test scores and an API of more than 900, I am worried that our students are performing too high. Do you think I am kidding? High test scores and a highly stressful academic environment go hand=-in-hand. We don't want our kids throwing themselves on the train tracks like five Palo Alto students did these last 8 months, do we? Be happy. Take your children for weekend car trips. Enjoy family life."

"Sandpiper teachers are excellent, (especially my daughter's second grade teacher!)..some better and more committed to challenging the kids than the others. I would prefer though that the teachers not always cater to the lowest common denominator and try to break kids into groups, such that they are challenged and do better in the company of their peers. I would also like to echo another parent's sentiments..in this they lack a good enrichment program like spelling bee, mathletics, drama or choir club. This would not only be a great way for PTA or school force to raise money in this time of recession, but would also make our kids smarter and well-rounded in preparation for middle school."

"Sandpiper is a great school with a very involved PTA. Since parents here couch kids out of school extensively, for your kid to keep up you need to do the same, or you will be left out!"
