What parents say
We moved to Berkeley from London for a short-term stay (Fall semester) and were delighted to find Netivot Shalom. It was an excellent choice for our family. The school has a high carer-to-child ratio, exceptional communication, and a wonderful pedagogy following the Reggio Emilia approach. We absolutely loved it!. Despite our short time there, we felt a deep connection to the staff. Our little boy still sings…
