Been at JA for the last 3 years. Amazing teachers, principal, staff, families, kids. Best school I have seen. Private school education without the tuition !!! A+ to all. Mr. Munier (Principal) is outstanding.
We attended Jefferson Academy until the end of the 07/08 school year, when we moved to the San Francisco area. We did not realize, at least to the extent we do now, how lucky we were to be a part of this wonderful school. In comparison to what we are finding in public schools in California, Jefferson Academy was superior in every way. The Core Knowledge Curriculum is excellent, and only available in California in a private school setting. Teachers at JA are communicative and supportive, and the the principal was second-to-none. Wonderful school. We miss you JA!

This is an amazing school. My child is an advanced reader for her grade. They have identified this and have continued to challenge her. Great community feeling at the school. Parent involvment is outstanding. Principal is visible and available.

We have been part of the JA family for five years. The Core Knowledge curriculum methodology of teaching is effective, concise and complete, and far ahead of the regular grade level skills of their neighborhood friends. A real plus to this school (as well as most charter schools) is that being a choice situation, the majority parents are so much more involved than what we experienced when we attended the nearby home school elementary. The parents all know and communicate with each other, the kids are well aware that it isn t just mom, dad and the teachers looking out for them. This dynamic leads to a close JA community spirit that encourages the kids and supports them, come what may. Elementary principal Michael Munier is professional, and a most visible and likeable leader. He participates openly in student activities and genuinely enjoys his job. The teachers/staff are open and friendly.
