From being a huge fan of this school our experience has flipped 180 in the last couple of years. They changed the grading system on a whim and it has created havoc. This can have devastating effect on college aspirants. DEIS initiatives are non-existent. There is lot of churn in staff. Club activities are not supported - no staff support is provided. Teachers make racist and condescending comments towards students and get away with it. The math department needs to get off their high horse.

What has struck me so far are: (1) The travel/global opportuni...

I have a middle schooler and a high schooler at Athenian. Given that Athenian is one of the most expensive school in the Bay Area and next to Blackhawk and Diablo, I was concerned that my kids would be surrounded by rich brats. I was pleasantly surprise that the kids are very diverse and the school...
