This school has be absolutely wonderful and an amazing transition into kindergarten for our daughter and our family. The principal is outstanding and very actively involved, we love our daughter's teacher - she comes home with stories and pride in what she's absorbed each day. Everything from the garden, wonderful Coach Mary, Ms. Wong, Ms. Wanda, Ms. Tam, Nori caring for our kids on the play structure - the library, inviting PTA and absolute sense of community, we truly feel blessed to be a part of this school.

A wonderful place to work. Parent and staff working together to make a joyful and educational environment. The curriculum goes above and beyond the california standards with amazing ties to the arts and sciences.

When we started at George Peabody two years ago, I was a little concerned because it was such a small school. I wondered if it would have the resources to be a truly great school. The PTA president at the time told me the size is actually an asset. It is much easier to turn a small boat than an ocean liner. In just 2 years we have seen remarkable additions to the school: a new play structure, a new learning garden, and unique after school enrichment offerings (from drama, to Tree Frog Treks to lion dancing). The teachers and the principal are fantastic. The parent participation and enthusiasm put added shine on this gem.
