We have been a member of this wonderful community for almost 3 years now. I've been asked many…read moretimes "why did we leave our public school (which is an amazing school) to come here"? There are many reasons why we made the change. The art and music programs, the fact that the children are free to be just that, children (tree climbing here is a must!) and this wonderful and giving community but if I had to give you the most important reason why we love Cedar Springs it's our amazing class teacher along with the other adults that teach my daughter. Not only can I say without hesitation that her teacher loves and cares for her but so do all of the other teachers that instruct her during her school day. Now it's not because my daughter is their favorite student but it's because that's how they feel about all of their students here. That's pretty special to be able to honestly claim that. So if you want more for your child than what you are receiving now I suggest scheduling a tour so that you can see for yourself the magic of Cedar Springs.

I just moved here from Bay Area and we have been remote for almost a full year- so we were more…read morethen excited schools are open here. I was nervous at first to send our kids back thinking it would be less fun with all the new rules in place and I worried my kid would hate wearing a mask all day (They do hate it but wear it with no complaints). Anyway, the school has got it together. It's been such a different experience from the schools we came from (also 9/10 schools east bay). I felt confident they were well taken care of and was always assured of it given the constant communication and updates of schools happenings. Aside from being well organized and having excellent communication, the staff is SUPER friendly. From the office to the home teachers to security and to the building maintenance that sanitizes the school down - EVERYONE was so nice! Anyway, this week they went back to school full time (HOORAY!) my kids home teacher was literally in tears seeing all her students together and that really moved me. This school genuinely cares about your children and their well being. Also plus that the campus is nice clean and has that nice Lake view - hence the name.

They have a horrible special needs program. Horrible!…read more Their excuse is "door to door" service, but they need to do more to offer HeadStart and special needs programs. I actually think they should be sued, so that they provide decent special needs programs, for kids.

I love Pinewood!…read more They are amazing with students they make them all feel welcome. The teachers care about their jobs you can tell because they go above and beyond for their students. They challenge the students who need it and help the other students if they may be struggling. You can tell they want every student to succeed! I love how they have security cameras. Makes me feel better with my children going there.

All have played sports at Pondo and been involved in clubs and other groups which both strengthened their bond to their classmates and to the school. We found teachers and coaches to genuinely care about our kids and their friends. Most of the students live in less densely populated neighborhoods and correspondingly you'll see more pickups than BMWs in the parking lot each morning. We enjoyed the lower level of pretense that exists here versus the other choices down the hill and believe our kids benefitted from it.
