Esin Restaurant & Bar
Esin and Curtis deCarion are a culinary match made in heaven. Well, make that Johnson & Wales University in Charleston which seemed like paradise to them. As their friendship bloomed at culinary school, they discovered a mutual passion for reading cookbooks, crafting recipes, and talking incessantly about food.
Married with two sons, Esin and Curtis have served up American food with Mediterranean flare since 1998. Before they opened Esin Restaurant in Danville's Rose Garden center in 2008, they ran the popular Café Esin a few miles away in San Ramon.
Curious, adventurous, and caring, the deCarions meticulously oversee each meal for their guests. They are fussy about everything at the restaurant from the pristine dining room to the freshness of each ingredient. The couple also takes extra care to mentor and train their staff. Curtis and Esin attract food-loving servers who instinctively understand guests' needs. They nurture a spirit of teamwork and independent thinking. And keep a keen eye on the environment by recycling and using many local purveyors.
Esin and Curtis opened Revel Kitchen & Bar in historic downtown Danville in 2014. Located in the heart of Lafayette, Social Bird is the third restaurant venture from the couple. They are both highly popular upscale taverns offering local, natural, sustainable ingredients, craft beers and cocktails.

Millennium School
We believe that the Middle School years are the springtime of human development. A uniquely rich opportunity to plant seeds of awareness and insight. We flip the lights on, brightly, in these most formative years because our world needs fully engaged human beings.
We are not a school; we are a learning lab. Making sense of the unknown is where we discover who we are. We help young minds find their passion for learning, to build a flywheel for perpetual curiosity. We embrace failure, paradox and complexity with playfulness.
We are unapologetically audacious in our mission and define success as feeling fully alive and consciously engaged in the world. Anyone, and we mean anyone, can go to our school, as long as they bring their uniqueness, courage and beauty.
Our staff is gifted - they love their jobs and would go to Millennium if they were adolescents again. They lead forums, quests and expeditions that immerse our children in the world outside of school. They are guides more than teachers.
Curiosity, creativity and compassion are the most complex subjects to score high on at Millennium. We teach these relentlessly. Our kids leave school inspired.
We believe that happiness and achievement are only meaningful in tango. One without the other is crippled. Peace in our hearts is our first goal. Knowing things follows naturally.
Our kids will go to any school and do well…will know how to fall in love and love unconditionally…will cry and never feel less for it…will never fear to be who they are, because they see joy and power in being themselves.

PARENT TESTIMONIALS: LORI'S PRESCHOOL
"I was thrilled when I attended my daughter's kindergarten conference. The teacher asked which preschool my daughter attended, and after I told her "Lori's Preschool," she told me how impressed she was with you, Lori. She said that my daughter and another boy in her class, who also attended your preschool, showed a genuine joy of learning, exhibited behavioral management skills, and had the best penmanship due to the many fine motor activities that you provided in your class. She then told me how all the students who came from your school had similar characteristics and were near the top of the class academically. I am so happy that my younger daughter is now attending your school. She loves going to school and asks to go every day. I love the small class size and how calm, creative, and organized you are. Thank you so much for all you do." Deana
"Once again, words can't express how truly grateful we are for everything you do! When Mia started there 2 years ago, I never thought she would have the same experience as Gianna. But in fact this time, it far exceeded my expectations. She has not only learned her letters, sounds, numbers, etc., but it is all the nonacademic things that are impressive...her patience, her confidence, her leadership, all the things you taught her just through conversation. Her experience is a true testament to the gift you have as an educator. Thank you for preparing her for a journey of lifelong learning. You have laid the strongest foundation. We will miss you. Love, Chara "(Reading Specialist and Literacy Coach for the SRVUSD)
