"The principal is an experienced and award-winning educator. The staff have created a supportive learning environment. The school has a jazz music program, a outstanding literacy specialist and even has actors coming to read with (not at) the students. Simply outstanding!!"

"This school has an exceptional teaching staff. It is nearly all non-white, with scores that moved it from 'star' status to its current excellent rating. The principal is not suited to this school, typical of the administrators misaligned by the current superintendent. If the teachers can hold it together, the school will remain on track. The population tends to be hard to manage but the 3-4-5 teachers 'loop' up with their kids so provide a long-term involvement and social structure that benefits the learning environment. The school has teamed with ACE, Omega, and Excel to provide culturally congruent activities during and after school. A good school for black and brown kids, with a strong commitment to continuing bilingual education and setting high expectations for performance and behavior for all its students."

"Don't let the low API fool you... many other schools pick and choose only those children most likely to succeed, and exclude the others. John Muir takes even the hardest kids to teach. The school my grandson attended before coming to John Muir, was one of the supposedly 'good schools', however they could not deal with his disability. Since I transferred him to John Muir he is now at grade level. The fact that John Muir does not discriminate,puts them at a disadvantage in scoring, however they are actually educating children that the 'better' schools gave up on. My grandson's teacher, Mrs. Vilt, was quite competent."
