Schools in Richmond, CA

“This review is long overdue! Curious explorers is an amazing school!! My daughter loves it here. She’s excited about coming to school every day!! Sometimes when I come and pick her up, she tells me that she wants to stay. That’s how much she loves curious explorers. This school has been life changing for us. All the staff here are warming and welcoming and you can tell the kids feel safe. There’s also a class pet Bailey who my daughter adores ?.
Curious explorers has been a blessing to my family.
5 stars isn’t enough! 10/10”

“I like Baby Penguin’s so much. I have two boys and they all go to this daycare for four year now. Ceci is generous, loving, and kind to everyone. She is a great mom and takes very good care of the babies, Janelle takes her time to prepare the kids for kindergarten and my son, Nigel has learnt a lot from her teaching. Abuelo is always welcoming to the kids and parents. I would recommend this day care to all parents with little kids.”

“Montessori curriculum, materials and large classrooms. Very impressed with this school and the teachers. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a great start in education for their children.”

“Like many parents who do not have a primary source of reference for schools in a new neighborhood, I looked to Google, GreatSchools and even the CA DEPT of Education for online reviews and found astonishingly low ratings for Lincoln Elementary, Richmond. But We had just moved to the neighborhood and I was eager to put my kids in school and Lincoln had an available space compared to other higher review schools. After less than two months of my eldest attending Kindergarten; my volunteering for a few student AND teacher appreciation activities AND attending parent-teacher/staff meetings to address an array of issues that I felt were necessary to get a feel for the overall culture and history of this school, I found a very encouraging, supportive and refreshingly organic school family. Incredible staff of teachers (a great mix of experienced and younger teachers and aides) and office staff who (despite the usual public school obstacles- human and financial resource related) all focus on giving what we as parents strive for and look to for our children: Quality Care and Education. Yes I still have a ways to go before updating this review, but as a parent I am learning to understand it takes much more than judging from the outside (esp from the Internet) to ensure my children can stay on the right track, And I’m happy to say Lincoln Elementary is taking us off to an Excellent start!”
