“I would be what most folks call, a "Problem student". In public school, I was disruptive, argumentative, and often times, absent. This wasn't because I'm a bad kid; rather, because I wasn't challenged by the public school curriculum. In 1979, my second grade year, I was placed in special education class. This was the public school's solution to students like me (Out of sight, out of mind). Here I remained until I started a new school my seventh grade year. My special education teacher immediately recognized I was out of place. He ordered the school to conduct a series of psychological, aptitude, and intelligence quotient tests be administered to me. The outcome was I was labelled "Gifted, but suffered severe ADHD". My I.Q. test came back at 148 average, but was noted that the test was likely low due to my inability to keep my attention. As a result of these tests, I was expelled from special education and mainstreamed into the seventh grade. I had not been in a 'normal' classroom for five years, and very quickly began to fail. I was still disruptive and argumentative. My mother became overwhelmed and sent me to live with my father in Half Moon Bay, CA. I enrolled in the local junior high school to finish out my eighth grade year. Thanks, in part, to a school guidance councilor, I was able to graduate to high school. Freshman year in high school started off disastrous. The end of my eight grade year, I took a placement exam, which I had no idea at the time how important it was for my upcoming curriculum. I was disinterested and applied no effort. In fact, I recall simply going through and marking any random answer to get out of that facility. My freshman year curriculum reflected my scores. I was placed in basic math and basic English. This was about the most damaging scenario imaginable to someone like me who responded to challenges. By second semester of freshman year, I simply stopped attending school entirely. By the end of the year, I was placed on probation. Unfortunately, sophomore year showed more of the same, and by the end of my first semester, sophomore year, I was expelled from the public school system. This is where Wherry Academy comes in: As fate would have it, we heard about the small, state accredited school, Wherry Academy. (At the time, located on Highway 92, Half Moon Bay/Redwood City). I was skeptical, but intrigued nonetheless. My first impression of Wherry Academy was that it was small. A schoolhouse of roughly 15 students ranging from kindergarten through 12th grade. However, I quickly found myself making friends and fitting in. I can honestly say that Wherry Academy, not only changed my life, but changed my perspective on life. I went from an unchallenged, failing student, to one who achieved highest marks, and went on to earn college credits before graduation. Wherry Academy stimulated me personally. The small classroom sizes and the one-on-one attention was perfect for what I needed for my own growth. My instructors were able to give me the personal attention I needed beyond the regular curriculum. I was challenged. I was encouraged. I grew, I succeeded, and I graduated with my class. Wherry Academy wasn't just another school. I was THE school that I needed to succeed at life. Marcus W Collins - Wherry Academy graduating class of 1990 B.S.

“These guys are professionals. I've been going here for a few years here for all of my cuts. I always leave looking super sharp. They do beards really well, too. Doesn't matter if your hair is curly, straight, or anything in between, they can do it. Danny has been doing my hair for a while. I recommend him if you can book him, great with beards too. There are a few things to make sure you do before going, they **don’t** take walk-ins, make sure to schedule in advance. I usually book with them on the Booksy app. Also, they do not take any form of card. It's cash only, so make sure to bring the cost of the cut usually around ~$60, plus tip if you feel inclined.”

“I cannot stress enough just how incredibly lucky I was to get Michelle as a dentist for my root canal. My experience getting my tooth fixed here was so incredibly counter to my expectations that I left the office with tears in my eyes; tears of joy for having such a painless, and wonderful experience. I've had a lot of fillings as well as my wisdom teeth taken out in my life and every single one of them was an incredibly painful experience that I absolutely dreaded having to get done. When I found out I needed a root canal I put it off for years half because I knew just how painful it would be. I'd say it was a miracle that there was absolutely no pain at all but then I wouldn't be giving credit where credit was due; it went so well purely because Dr. Olsen was a combination of extremely talented and, (somehow despite her having to have done this same procedure to thousands of people), amazingly compassionate. I just wanted to say thank you to Dr. Olsen and her staff for a weirdly, but pleasantly, unforgettable experience. Thank you!”

“By far the most aesthetically beautiful public library in this area in terms of location + interior design (Mill Valley, Mountain View, Los Gatos, Saratoga, Burlingame, Rinconada, Los Altos, Cupertino, and San Mateo are close contenders). The interior is lined with beautiful wood and garnished with chairs designed by established firms/designers such as Fritz Hansen and Design Within Reach. This is literally the most beautiful contemporary interior design of a library I’ve ever seen on the west coast, you have to see it to believe it. Great location, extremely friendly and helpful staff, and not a lot of people traversing through this area - ideal for peaceful studying and work for professionals who need a break from coffee shops (like myself). Thank you to all of the library staff, donors, community members, and friends of the Atherton Library for making this incredible library possible, I’m grateful for your hard work and giving spirit to make this a safe place for all of the Bay Area community to enjoy.”

“Dr Julie Is a highly qualified professional. As well, she adeptly makes one feel at ease right away. After I filled out a thorough medical history, she carefully read and affirmed even more specific details to help her treat my pain. Within 24 hours my pain was relieved and I was able to get my first uninterrupted nights sleep in quite some time. I would highly recommend Sunshine Acupuncture.”
