The teachers are really dedicated to the school. The only thing I wish for is that more parents get involved not just here but in California as a whole. Teachers can't do it alone.

The assigned teacher for my childs class has not been in and a long string of substitutes have been filling in. My son is WAY behind due to this, he needs consistancy, this is not it. The school says they can't hire a new teacher and they can't keep a substitute for more than 21 days - both very poorly thought out rules, kids need consistency.

My son just transferred from the Hayward School district. My child is bored this school. The teacher tested him and he is scoring above grade level. She even tested him on a subject she haven't even started teaching her class and he scored above grade level. My child use to love school and now doesn't want to go because it is so boring. Antioch school district need to bring their lessons up to par. I don't know what to do?

Although scores this year are not #1 in Antioch, John Muir has been on the right track. The staff is committed to providing the children with a quality education. Greater parental involvement is needed for some students to restore John Muir to its former number one position in Antioch.

John Muir is an excellent school. Everything about it is top notch. My children feel safe. There is a large amount of parent involvement. The academics are superior!

John Muir has been a very good school for our two children. Both our 5th grader and 2nd grader have been there since kindergarten and have benefited from the level of experience the teachers bring. The principal is one of the best we've encountered and encourages family involvement in almost everything from fund raisers, to helping out in classrooms, to just supporting your kids.
