Michelson has been a great place for my kids. They have thrived in this caring environment. The teachers and staff work very to make it a fun place to work and play. The support for our new community garden, the arts and community activities help keep Michelson and Murphys a great place to grow in!

My daughter has spent K-5 at michelson, this being her last year. I have been 100% amazed with the results of this school and they could never have found a better staff. The staff knows every childs name, who there parents are and they truly care about our children's future and education. when my daughter was in 3rd grade she was reading at a 5th grade level.Michelson has a wonderful PTA.I am so honored to have been a part of the Michelson family and I am beyond proud of our teachers,parents and all other staff that makes it all happen. We really do have the best school in California. Our students are safe and loved by the whole community. Thank you Michelson for helping me raise my child into the strong and intelligent young lady she has become.

My son is in Terry Sepulveda's special ed class. The special ed at Michelson has been excellent. Terry Sepulveda is an incredible teacher. Her many years of expertise are evident - she is dedicated, patient and caring, as are all the experts that have come in to work on their individual areas. I have been very happy with my son's education, the school 'family' and acceptance by other kids. The principal is a real nurturer - very hands on and obviously loves kids.

If you truly mean a shy kid who wants to be outgoing, then I would help them interact with one child at a time. If you are talking about an introverted child, refer to http://www.carlkingdom.com/10-myths-about-introverts

Find something you are good at or enjoy doing a lot, just one thing. You'll gain confidence and meet other kids that enjoy that activity too. Mine was singing in choir. I wasn't good at anything else but that built my confidence for other things... More »
