"My daughter was well prepared for high school honors classes - she enjoyed going to James Lick My son is in 7th grade and is challenged and enjoys school - both my kids are high achieving GATE students and they were well served at James Lick - I feel that the differentiation really worked better than segregated tracks. Strong art program, lots of community building with the student and family community"

"We've been thrilled with James Lick. My daughter is thriving academically and socially. The teachers are talented and dedicated. They give 150 percent to the kids. My daughter is doing great in all her academic subjects--even math, which hasn't been her favorite subject in the past. She also loves all the arts that are available, including chorus, dance, and studio art electives and a musical theater production of 'Bye Bye Birdie' as an after-school activity."

"This is the hidden 'gem' of middle schools in SF. The arts focus keeps kids involved and motivated while the academic program is rigorous. The diverse population reflects the San Francisco community and it's values. Go Bulldogs!"

"There is considerable writing across the academic core classes and in my view this is an indicator of high expectations, teacher quality and leadership. Though my child is in General Education, she benefits from the presence of the Immersion program because this leads to more discussion of academic subjects across the board. The music program has expanded to include 2, the art instruction is not only high quality but motivates those students who do not think they are 'art' oriented. Recently the 6th graders began a 'wheel system' where each 6th grader gets to experience the selection of Arts offerings and Peer Leadership. Parent involvement is high and consistent."
