moving to Marin... lots of questions!

Forums:

hey all.  been a minute since I made my way over here to say anything.  Saw Fitzman last night at Grateful Shread, he sends his regards...

So... it looks like I am moving to San Rafael.  Can someone give me an impression of the Glenwood Elementary School in San Rafael?  I have a 6 yr old and where she goes to public school is as important to us as where we end up living... 

Also, we are looking at a home on Bayview Dr.  I am pretty certain the neighborhood is strong... but I am open to local opinions of both Glenwood Elementary and the hood up on Bayview Dr.

thanks all... Lance, I am sure you cant wait to see me in your playpen down at the crossroads....haha!

Jon, I've asked a friend who teaches at San Rafael High about Glenwood Elementary - she's only been in the district for 2 years so she'll ask around. I hear the neighborhood is as it's been for years. I've been visiting my mom in Marin and trying to get a little time for a side trip to look at Bayview (looking for something new to see) but haven't made it.

I'll let you know what I hear.

Congratulations.

Thanks all.  We actually settled in Novato and the Pleasant Valley Elementary School.  Better rents then San Rafael for what appears to be a nicer property.  We arrive 8/10 or there abouts.  Rented a home in what appears to be a nice neighborhood.  

 

If anyone is familiar with Novato, I would be grateful to hear back on this thread.  I have never been there myself but very excited to become a part of the community.
