So in the years that I went here I saw lots of special needs who had help but the principal made one kid stand out and gave us words to ignore him and act like hes a bad person now it sounds like they are trying to teach that special needs kids are the same as any other kid but it also seemed as if they were trying to exclude them and make him seem like an outsider but thats not all I got in a few fights not a single teacher intervened one of my fights was in 6th grade and I was stopping a 7th grader from strangling another 6th grader not one called to me or the 7th grader thats all I got hope this tells you where to send your kid I would recommend Truman but my friend went there said fights are common I honestly dont know where to go I hope for the parents out there reading this find the best school and always make sure they dont have depression or suicidal thoughts

We love this school and moved to the area to make sure my son could attend. The teachers are experienced and there are many incredible opportunities for students. A group of 8th graders even traveled to China this year.

Our neighborhood in Oakland has many families that go to Hunt too and we love being part of the community.

This school is amazing the teachers and students are so friendly and open to new ideas, being a student I have seen this in other kids shoes, I love this school and recommend it to all parents and kids that are thinking about it this school had a perfect fit for special needs kids as well with private teachers to help them learn, the sports and after school programs are out of this world while they go out there way. I went skiing with a bunch of kids from my grade it was so fun and I got to connect with new people.
