I am a new parent to public schools and I am very satisfied with PVIS. The teachers and staff are very qualified and helpful. I also came from a private school and I am surprised at the high level of education my children are getting at PVIS.

The new principal Frank Califano is excellent. We have a new assistant principal as well. We did not lose any teachers 2009-2010 from the budger cut. Mrs. O is a the best music teacher with more that 270 kids in band/orchestra. The school is safe overlooking the ocean. There is a Chinese program for second language. The math club is wonderful volunteered by Mrs. Thom with award winning students. The honors and accelerated classes are challenging. I cannot believe this is a public school. I moved my kids from a private school nearby to this public middle school because it is so close to home. I cannot believe they are getting the same education and better without the huge price tag. I have to pinch myself sometimes. My kids love the school and look forwared to go everyday.

I go to this school, and it provides so much education for children in 6th - 8th grade. I moved from Rancho Palos Verdes to Palos Verdes Estates just to go to this school! If you are coming from a different country, they help ESL (English as a Second Language) as well. The teachers are well chosen. I hope many more people will enjoy the thrill of PVIS like I have!!! (currently in 6th grade)
