I have two children in the preschool and I am thankful that Cornerstone is close to our house. My children love going to school and enjoy their interactions with the teachers. The teachers communicate using the ClassDojo app, which allows me as a parent to stay involved and know what my children are learning in school. I also love getting pictures of what my children are doing in school! Another thing I love about Cornerstone is that it's a Christian school, which helps my children get a foundation of Christianity at a young age. They also teach Chinese which is important to me. I love seeing my children progress as they move through years of the preschool program. Hopefully, the experience will still continue to be good, and we can stay until 8th grade. read more

This school is not too good. You should try a different school, and the Chinese here is very very easy.

I went to this school from K-5 as the class of 2017. Do not send your children to this school. Cornerstone teachers are byfar the most incompetent mandated reporters to grace the earth and will humiliate your child in front of the whole class as a form of discipline. Mrs. Almira and Ms. Pamela are especially one of the worst who will emotionally and mentally traumatize your child. Mrs. Almira has left me outside of her classroom on numerous occasions unsupervised for several hours. Ms. Pamela has once dragged me by my wrist into her classroom while I was on the floor crying. These teachers are unable to recognize clear signs of adhd and abuse at home and should have their teaching licenses revoked. Punishments to children include humiliation to the whole class, being left outside the classroom unsupervised for hours, and isolating children from their classmates. -10/10 I can't believe my parents paid for this shit. read more

Tlhe school is well-organized, with clear communication to both students and parents, which makes it easy to stay informed about academic progress and school events. Teachers are caring and supportive both academically and personally. creating a nurturing learning environment. read more

Do not send your kids to this school! Teachers are like sadomasochistic towards the kids...passive aggressive..yell and verbally abuse the students without any merit. Both my kids went there for elementary/ middle school and they both learned jack shit! Teacher teach by text book with no passion, no enthusiasm, no empathy, no patience. read more

Amazing! my child has learned a lot here! the teachers are nice, the staff are friendly, and the children are well educated.

The schools food is amazing the teachers were okay all the good teachers I hate are now gone which makes the school a little sad for me but it's fine the school is pretty good the students there are funny but sometimes annoying I don't like how dusty and messy Cambridge is (the middle school) middle school /Elementary the school field trips were fun and I enjoyed it but we had to go to the science academy every year which was boring I have been there for 5 in a half years and my experience was good but the amount of homework and laps around the school we had todo. read more

I was in this school for 4 years and always hated it since 4th grade started. Ms.Judy rudely yelled if students did bad she would yell at them saying they should learn better and didn't let them join in their activities for the rest of the day. When it was zoom me and some other students were doing poorly but she never even helped or encouraged us what's worse is that when we cried and our parents was scolding us she grinned and showed a smile while we were crying. She should get fired and should really act more kind to students who need help. Kchay M showed their true colors and if you see this what was your teacher in 4th and 5th grade if you ever stayed there for those grades. read more

My son went there for Junior preschool year and adores all 3 of his teachers. They genuinely love the kids and it's like a second home to him. He even loves the front desk lady very much and insists on visiting her office to say goodbye every day after school. We had to leave cornerstone due to family reason now, but his pre-k teacher already become his "favorite teacher" after spending just a very short period of time in her class. He learnt and grow so much at cornerstone and we will sure miss everyone in there. read more

I had to do an essay on an experience I had in oppression and resistance for high school. I go into detail about the oppression and (lack of) resistance on the last part of it, but for the sake of the review and for personal reasons, I omitted that last part. I feel I could just use that as my review: I got bullied at school, by school. It wasn't just one person or a small group of people bullying me. Rather, the entire school. Everybody and their pet dogs started picking on me. Even my so-called friends and classmates I didn't even know started to pick on me. I know I sound like I'm exaggerating when I say something as large as "the whole school was picking on me", but considering the ratio of people bullying me to the total amount of people in the school, which was a small number, how else do think I should say it? I was in 6th grade when this all went down. I was just like any other prepubescent boy just trying to make it through school, trying to fit in. I was already at the point where it felt like all the teachers were making it hard for me, and the way they said it, I was only making it hard for myself. All seemed fine at first. And then, it happened. It was lunch time, and the 8th graders at the time were selling cookies to fundraise. I forgot most of the details of what happened, with is being 3-4 years ago and all, so here's what I remember: I was going to send a cookie to myself for no reason other than "because I want to". Some kid who would always pick on me made me send a cookie to this one girl. It was all a joke, he said. You won't do it, he said. I naively complied out of fear of that kid calling me a "pussy" and that "I had no balls". To prove that I indeed had balls, I did it...was what I said. My plan was to just stuff it into my pocket and just say I did it. They actually thought I did it. I told them it was all "just a joke" and that I was just "screwing around with them", but they didn't listen. And what did the school do after I tried to complain to them? Basically nothing. One teacher in particular just encouraged me to go confess to her, even though I knew I didn't like her, telling me to "man up" or some shit like that. Pretty soon, rumors had spread that I liked this girl that I myself had no affection towards. I tried to ignore the crap they said, but the rumor was about as subtle as a sledgehammer vasectomy done by an Apache helicopter. And with that, my life was now ruined. I have committed "pineapple on pizza". And that should've been it for me. My living hell should've ended with that. But nope, they kept coming and they didn;t stop coming. Same school, same deal with me getting in trouble for seemingly no reason. Somewhere within the first half of my 7th grade year, I got in trouble for breaking some kid's phone. No biggie, right? Nope. Massive, larger than Neo-Zeong biggie. You see, it all started with me and my friends just chilling out in the far corners of the schoolyard on our phones...well, everybody except for me. It was around 4:25, if memory serves me right. School had already ended, and I was just in the courtyard waiting for my grandma to come pick me up. I was just watching my friends play Clash Royale or whatever was cool at the time. This one kid who hung out with us decided to take some photos of me. At least, that's what it looked like from my perspective. Nothing bothersome, just some non-consensual photography, nothing too worrisome. I did not ask for or want my photo taken without my permission, of course. I hesitated, out of fear that I might break something I did what anyone would do when a phone is pointed at them. I tried to block the camera on his phone with as little force as possible. The phone slipped out of his hands and fell to the ground for some reason. The screen cracked, of course.!My fears were correct. I tried to apologize, but he wasn't having that shit. He blamed me for breaking his screen, even though he said he had a tight grip on his phone. I accused him for trying to take a photo of me, even though he claimed he didn't, or was even trying to. He told me that I had to pay him back for the broken screen, and that he wouldn't take no for an answer. "God is good all the time, and all the time God is good" my ass. No point in praying if God knew this was gonna happen. Was this "God's plan" for me? It's a real shitty plan, if that's what I'm wondering. read more

I went to this school 19 years ago when I first moved to the United States at the age of 6. Just keep in mind that when I first went there I didn't know any english and by the time I left I knew couple words here and there. I'll just share with you a couple experiences and keep this as short as possible. One time, during the summer program, we went on a little field trip to some local park. There were activities, picnics, and so on. Right before we were getting ready to head back from the park, they told everyone to go use the bathroom so I did. After a few minutes I had to use the bathroom again because I had been drinking a lot of water and juice and I was 6 years old so I had the bladder control of a 6 year old. The bathroom was really close by so I asked a teacher if I could use the bathroom. They said no because we were just told to go use the restroom and I wasn't listening. I told them I did go but I need to go again but still they wouldn't let me. I knew that I wouldn't be able to hold it until we got back to the school so I bolted for the bathroom but some teacher caught me grabbed me by the arm and yanked me off the floor and started yanking me and pushing me towards the school bus that everyone was now lining up for. I was really embarrassed and didn't know what to do except.... laugh? It's hard enough to communicate knowing maybe a few basic words but to be yanked, pushed, and dragged in front of other students like that, you really don't know how to react to that kind of situation as a 6 year old kid. Anyways, we're on the way back on the school bus and we are almost at the school and I absolutely can't hold it anymore. I told a teacher and they said we're almost back at the school and for me to hold it. I was desperate at this point so I tried really really hard to communicate to them that I'm literally about to piss myself like right now. They got the hint I guess and ended up finding a black trash bag for me to piss in...... in front of all the other students. I guess its better than wetting myself???? When my mother dearest came to pick me up that day, one of the teachers talked to her for a bit and I ended up finding out that they told her that I was misbehaving really bad and wouldn't follow directions. They told my mom that I needed spankings and for my mom to "discipline" me more. Second story, summer's over and school has started. One time we were making some kind of paperweight thing with a weird kind of dough like material. Each table had couple kids and a box of the dough on top of the little piece of dough we were already given. I didn't understand the instructions on what we're supposed to do because.... well, no engrishy but I just watched what the other kids did and followed along. When they reached into the little plastic container with the dough in the middle of the table for more dough, I followed along. Then the teacher came and reprimanded me because I didn't ask for permission to get more. I tried to explain that I was only doing what I saw everyone else did and she got upset with me and told me that I'm arguing and she only saw me take more dough from the container. Mind you that this container was placed in the middle of each group of 5 or so kids. She ended up putting me on time out and took away my little dough sculpture from me. After time out was over I had to write a note to her to apologize to her for not following directions. 3rd story. This was in kindergarten as well. One time the class was really loud and some of the kids just wouldn't shut up. The teacher got mad, screamed at us to shut up, and put the whole class on time out. She turned off the lights, left the door open, and went to the classroom next doors to chat with the teacher. Having said all that, I'm giving this school 2 stars because they had a teacher take me outside of class once or twice a week for like an hour or so just to converse with me and help me with my english. read more

why waste your money and time in this school? you're practically making your child suffer mentally and physically. the staff here, pick favorites and play a game of i like you and i hate you, they're all so bitchy in the worst ways possible. Ms. Almira was one of the worst ones, always gave attitude like she owned the whole damn school. I remember she said that, when she was growing up in The Philippines, she had to wipe her azz with dry leaves and to me, that explains why she's so butthurt everyday. Their way of disciplining kids is just humiliating them. In elementary, one of the teachers made me frickin face the wall in the hallway , literally everybody was watching me, like a psycho. read more

This school is not equally fair to the kids attending. Punishment is not handled correctly. His 5th grade Teacher Pamela punished my son without prior notice to me. I was completely astounded that there was no prior communication with me. Pamela is not someone I would want to teach my kids. When Pamela can't fixed kids problem just told you take your kids to see a doctor 、she is very bad teacher,That is terrible experience for me. People be careful to think about it before you put you kids to the5th grade read more

The only thing I regret in my life, because I sent my daughter to Cornerstone academy. Teachers are favored some students, low quality teaching strategies and systems. Students are treat unfairly, and the teachers only yell to students and make students depressed. My daughter had a painful time with Cornerstone academy. read more

My kids are excited about going to school everyday. I have three enrolled. They sometimes complain about the amount of homework they receive, but I think it helps them to be responsible for their study habits. They enjoy the dance and sports program they are in. I feel that they are learning and growing as indivuals. I'm happy that as a parent I don't have to worry about sending them to an outside after school program. They have a before and after school program that is all included in the monthy tuition. I am extremly happy that I do not have to volunteer for fund raisers! read more

The teachers are always posting homework at the last second so students have to spend day and night to work on the assignment.

because of miss pamela she has kept my child from the students and was treating my son like my son was never even included in things. h e sends my son to different places for no apparent reason read more

My son started attending 2nd grade here and he has never been happier. He attended 2 other Christian schools prior and was bullied at both the other schools. Both other schools only favored kids of certain ethnicity. He never had chances to sing solo at performances or participate in citing verses because he wasn't a certain ethnic group. He now has the most encouraging and loving teacher and it motivates him to work harder at school. We feel truly blessed to have found this school read more

One of the best elementary schools. No bullies is tolerated there. It is safe! Teachers are spiritually mature. Most of the teachers are bilingual (English is their mother language). Free Chinese language class daily. School opens at 7:15 a.m. and close at 6:00 p.m. No need to pay extra for after school programs. We will have our kids here until 12th grade. read more

Over all school has been great and I love the teachers, but whenever there is a performance , parents come in 2 hrs early to get the best sit available but how can the staff let one or two ppl save a row of ten sits for friends family, Many parents are do that,think the staff needs to took into this read more

This is the worst school I have ever see. How could a teacher, Vivian, straight up tell a mom that, "your son is not normal, he is not normal..." Has she thought of a mom's feeling? So rude and bloodcurdling... The administrative, Nancy, kicked my son out of school without any notices. We asked for 30 days time period before my son got kicked out so that we could find another school for my son, but the answer was NO. So cold-blood. How could two adults treat a child like this? I will never stop complaining these two people and will write a letter to the educational board to complain. read more

This is not a place you want to send your kids. Chances are that if you do send your kid here, your kid will end up bullying other kids or will be bullied by other kids. If you send your kids here, they will be scarred for life emotionally. Furthermore, this school's academics are not as superb they make it seem to be. After leaving Cornerstone and attending public school, I've noticed many of my classmates who had attended public school previously were smarter and achieving higher scores on standardized tests than me. read more

if your kids are well trained at home, then it may be a good school for them. But if your kids require a little bit more patient from them, don't even think about it. they would direct or indirect to tell you to change to another school or withdraw. personally, i think they just have no patient. i am happy that i pulled my kid out early. my kid is doing much better in the new school. i wouldn't recommended this school to others. read more
