I encourage everyone to tour Cobb and chat with Mr. Slife! You'll realize it's a hidden gem in SFUSD!My daughter started at Cobb in K with Mr. Henry. He is a fantastic teacher and was in the process of creating a custom curriculum for her when we were pulled into our wait pool school (2 blocks from our house) 3 weeks into the school year. I was reticent about Cobb (largely due to the attendance numbers), but fell in love with the school. Principal Slife is in his 2nd year and is incredibly energetic and enthusiastic. The kids and parents love him. The Family Liaison, Ms. Collier, is also fantastic. They started an attendance program this year (I saw the first award ceremony this morning and it was great -- a lot of parent participation). We switched because our wait pool school is SO much closer, but that is the ONLY reason we moved. In 3 weeks, we already felt like such a part of the Cobb community. As to the posting by "a Community Member" on March 16, your comment is incredibly misguided and ignorant. The school is small, so under the statistics principle "law of small numbers", the test scores have little statistical significance. My husband and I both have doctorate degrees and we were confident our daughter would get an excellent education there.
