Proud of the District for continuing to innovate! It should never just be the students who are learning....we all need to be learning, challenging and striving for excellence. Delighted to see Eric hitting the ground running (though I never expected anything less).

Innovation and being on the cutting edge sets Menlo Park School District apart from others. However, Altschool is an unfortunate choice for a partnership. They have many internal issues including dissatisfied and unhappy families leaving their schools, high teacher turnover and poor academics (their students are way behind peers in public schools). The district needs to do their homework!
