Malcolm X Elementary School

My daughter attended Malcom X Academy a couple of years ago before we moved to the east bay and it was a great school. The teachers and staff at the school are very attentive and caring. The children were also provided extra help by school volunteers and classroom assistants. The after-​school program ran by Mr. Wilson is the best. It was well structured and provided my daughter with homework help and extra-​curricular activities that she enjoyed. The after-​school staff worked together with the teachers to better assist the students during the after-​school program. They have several events that families can participate in with their children that are fun for everyone. Even though the school is located in a rough part of town the teachers and staff create a safe, family oriented environment for the children. If this school and staff was located in a better part of town there would be waiting lists for this school, I would highly recommend it.

Malcolm X Academy has a great staff, dedicated to the improvement of every student. My young student attending has seen great improvement in various areas not necessarily taught in schools due to the attentiveness of the staff here. It’s not a huge school which seems to allow for a more neighborly feel. (The teacher-​student ratio here is excellent)
The functions and programs offered here are impressive as well, specifically the after school program directed by Mr. Wilson which allows for student’s homework support as well as extra curricular activities such as those in the arts. (The Lights On Spaghetti Night was lots of fun!)
My student’s teacher, Ms. Hall, has kept me well informed of new developments in the school and my child’s detailed education plan. She shows great care and respect for every child under her wing. Malcolm X is very recommended.
