- Reviewed by Parent/Guardian on September 26, 2010
- Rating:
(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - This school outperforms all other k-8 programs in the valley at this time! These scores do not reflect this fact. We have many k-8 choices in Sonoma. This is one of the most sought after programs in the valley. The scores for the past three years put Charter above Prestwood, again a fine school, but facts are facts. I'm glad I am lucky enough to debate who is actually first. So many schools in our country are trying to get into the top 100 in some cases. :|
