"St. John's of S.F. Orthodox Academy is a unique school for kids from Eastern Orthodox families. Our daughter came to this school in 4th grade soon after we moved to US from Russia. Family atmosphere and personal attention helped her to adjust and progress from no English to a National Merit Commended Student. While keeping tuition low they are able to provide highly skilled teachers who work hard to bring out the best in each child. Now with my son being in first grade I look forward for more years to come in this school. Thank you St. John of S.F. Orthodox Academy for giving my children the excellent education while scheduling school's life around Orthodox feast days and services."

"Although this is a small school, it's academic achievements are stellar. There is a real drive within the school to instill the importance of community service in the minds of the children. Which, I think is lacking in public schools. Also, as an Orthodox Christian school the formation of morals and ethics are held to be extremely important. This is direly needed in our society. I am surprised with the dedication of the administration, who without pay, work on a volunteer basis. The teachers show such care and concern for there pupils and due to the small class size a family atmosphere is strongly felt. These teachers are martyrs for their students, working without the benefits umbrella offered to teachers at public or other private schools. They all deserve a gold medal."

"Let the facts speak for themselves. One of the least expensive private schools, that gives a high quality education. Full time administrator that works for free! Why? For the love of it. Teachers that are retired doctors and engineers who reap excitement and success in the subjects that are 'boring' and 'hard.' A curriculum that is at least a year ahead of the norm. Standardized test scores that will amaze you. Getting into college is no problem. Hot lunches prepared from scratch. One negative-only about five percent of parents show up for meetings and participate in fund raisers."

"The teachers staff somewhat is weak. The administration is very poor. All they want is your money."
