    What an amazing school and community! My husband and I did quite a bit of due diligence the past…read morefew months to find a great spot for our toddler. We looked into day cares and preschools. Many day cares just seemed like drop off places with not much structured activities while preschools really emphasized their curriculum. We chose to take the preschool route. We also wanted our son to learn a new language and French was a great choice based on his heritage and we love the French culture. We visited the school back in February and Tiphaine and the rest of the staff was fantastic. We had a lot of questions and they really spent the time to walk us through everything. We got a really nice preview of the schools's warm culture. Our son has now been in preschool for the past month and it's been amazing to see him grow, learn French, make new friends, and we can see he is happy and excited to go everyday. PROS: - small teacher to students ratio - friendly community - engaged PA with bunch of events (some virtuals for busy parents and some F2F in the evenings) - caring staff with a new head (Frederique) - designed curriculum - after school activities (sports, yoga, spanish) - early and late drop off / day care options CONS: - tuition is on the high side (monthly installments as an option). But the cost is well worth it and we are just very impressed so far with everything. So glad we have found this schooo!!

    The International School of Orange County has been so far the best decision I've made for my son's…read moreeducation. Introducing him to French at an early age from the mommy and moi program as a toddler to starting full time classes at Pre-K, he is code switching from English to French and singing songs he learns in class. We do not speak French in our household and this School gives my son French cultural and language experience. The faculty and staff have been very supportive and welcoming us to the school. I appreciate the faculty to student ratio. The teachers are very caring and nurturing. My son goes to school every morning with a smile. Great French Immersion School in Orange County accredited by French Ministry of Education.

    Fletcher's been a great school since Mrs. Cardenas took over as principal in 2023-2024. For one, in…read morea matter of months during her rookie year, Mrs. Cardenas swiftly and soundly solved all the staffing problems that had affected Fletcher for 3+ years. Also, you can tell that Mrs. Cardenas really cares about the kids. From empathizing with a first grader over chipped nail polish to agreeing to kiss a live pig to motivate the student body, she exemplifies relatable warmth. I genuinely like the teachers that have taught my daughter so far. Her kindergarten teacher is a miracle worker. In her soft-spoken way, she can calm the rowdiest room of 5- and 6-year-olds and teach them good socio-emotional skills. She devotes so much attention to helping EACH child, from researching resources for the parents to use to notifying parents about little things that affect children's social dynamics. Her observation skills are off the charts! Further, she individualizes education to children's skill levels. She had some kids learning first-grade material and writing 5+ sentence paragraphs all while in kindergarten. Her compassion, dedication, and insight will forever make a HUGE difference in our family. The first-grade teachers are similarly awesome. They exude friendly fun and nurturing sweetness. And they care so much about their students and are soooo patient with them! My daughter's teacher has even responded to my texts at 10:00 pm and over the weekend to answer my questions! They go above and beyond to make each child feel seen, heard, and oh so special, and they create a safe, enriching spot for each child to grow. One of the most veteran, knowledgeable, and caring teachers at Fletcher is a first-grade teacher there, and her classroom is consistently quiet with all kids on task. When was the last time you heard of a first-grade classroom like that?! First grade also individualizes learning as well, and they cut the fluff that comes with certain elementary school instruction. One of the first-grade teachers won Teacher of the Year this year, and the kids responded with an uproarious cheer and could not stop chanting her name. And my 4-year-old is in love with another first-grade teacher because she really took the time to interact with him when he visited the classroom for Open House. Hence, I love the academic and social environment in first grade! Lastly, I have to give a shoutout to the amazing PTSA that Fletcher has had since we've been here. They have sooo many great programs for ALL the students and enthusiastically try to get as many students involved as possible. Elaborate trunk-or-treats, dazzling carnivals, animal presentations, assemblies, reindeer runs, Reflections, various holiday celebrations, and art/music/science classes...you name it! There are also fabulous after-school clubs and extracurriculars at Fletcher including running club, esports, math and reading clubs, homework help, Mandarin competition clubs, etc. However, what I believe really separates this PTSA from many others is their willingness to listen to parents and students and make their visions a reality. For instance, one parent wanted to have a talent show, and some other parents wanted a field day. PTSA listened, snapped its fingers and funded the events, and these events all happened for the first time at Fletcher in a long time. Similarly, another parent wanted to help expose 1st to 6th graders to the higher-level problem-solving and test-taking skills that comes with math competitions. Mrs. Cardenas and PTSA, and some dedicated fifth-grade teachers, found ways to make this happen. I was so impressed! When we told our parent friends from the Placenta-Yorba Linda School District about all the offerings at Fletcher, they said, "Whoooaa! You would only get that at fancy private schools!!" All in all, Fletcher's a fabulous school. And because of Mrs. Cardenas and PTSA, you can also think of it as a school where your voice matters, a school that WILL take your ideas for change and implement them. I encourage parents who care, who want to make a difference in their child's educational environment, to send their kids to Fletcher. The Mandarin education is top-notch, but there is no difference between how the school treats its MIP students and its students who aren't in the Mandarin program (i.e., don't feel that your kids HAVE TO be in the Mandarin program if they're at Fletcher). All benefit from the unique educational opportunities that Fletcher offers, and I'm so grateful for it.

    This school finally opened after two years of administration issues. The school principal and staff…read morewere phenomenal! However, NONE are returning next year 2025/2026. The children did their best with what they had. No cafeteria, no proper playground for upper grades, no multipurpose room, and no space - classes were combined. I was part of the community engagement program to promote community in the school. It included a grant and the money was used for other purposes, because it was unallocated funds. The board members are thieves and liars. The principal took on two years of debt (nearly $3m) and because enrollment was low, it was not able to get the financial support from the state. Explore Prime Academy Board members will gaslight your questions and give you a "let's wait and see" response for what's coming next year. Mind you, Explore has its own board and has NOTHING to do with Orange Unified School District. As a parent, I was really hoping this would be the school my daughter would attend for the rest of her school age years. The expansion was slated for K-12. Unfortunately, the nepotism with board members/ former board members hiring friends and relatives to fulfill staff roles without any training or ever working in education, has left me in a lurch in trying to find a middle school for my daughter. I am angry and heartbroken with how her childhood education has been affected. And wish all the parents better fortune if they find another school. Most teachers are going to Magnolia Public Schools and I strongly recommend parents looking into alternatives to Explore Prime Academy. And, as if you need any more persuasion, here is an article about the new principal/ executive director of Explore Prime Academy. https://voiceofoc.org/2020/02/serrano-trust-facts-cecilia-iglesias-is-unfit-for-office/
