- Principal leadership
- Parent involvement
The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.
In spite of the recent write-in campaign, I have to echo the parent who said: Santa Lucia '... tends to teach kids what to think rather than how to think, and trumpets acceptance and holistic education but within a rather narrow range. In short, you either love the sheltered approach or will find it constraining.'
Santa Lucia teaches its students how to think critically, how to care globally and how to act responsibly. Its holistic curriculum incorporates peace education, a love for nature as well as the arts, and a respect for all in the world. I love this school and its tight community!
Santa Lucia School has been an important part of our family for 12 years. The teachers truly honor and love the students and encourage them to use critical thinking as well as how to treat others respectfully while maintaining their own sense of justice. The students are exposed to a wide variety of art forms and expressions of creativity, a love of nature and many cultural experiences. Most of all the students love to learn and have self confidence to be out in the world. We love Santa Lucia School.
