Enrolling my kids in this school was the answer to a prayer I didn't even know I had yet. The community and care you get here is unlike any school I've experienced. The teachers care about the students' well- being academically, emotionally and spiritually. The elementary curriculum is rigorous and since they are accredited you can rest assured the kids are getting a quality education. There are opportunities for students to engage in extracurricular activities such as field trips, festivals and theatre. My kids have made memories they will never forget. This campus feels like a family and they take into consideration any concerns or issues you may have as if the kids were their very own. read more

This review is my experience as a parent with a child previously enrolled in the preschool program at the Brea, CA campus. She was in room 15. I want to start by saying how much I loved Ms. Rolon and Mrs. Calabrese. They were always so welcoming and genuine. My daughter started in July, feeling confident this was the right fit. However, that quickly changed. My daughter's teacher (who I will leave unnamed) right off the bat, my husband and I felt didn't like my daughter, and my daughter felt it. High-strung energy and frantic energy are not good for young ones who are nervous to start. Not welcoming, and immediately made her out to be a "BAD" kid. I think it ruined her first preschool experience. Backing up, my daughter was born 4 months before the pandemic broke out and had never been in daycare or school, which was explained when we enrolled her. I was very transparent about everything when touring and signing up. Mrs. Calabrese, who gave us a tour, and who sold us. She was absolutely wonderful & genuine. Mrs. Calabrese left shortly after my daughter started so we relied on some of the staff and teachers. Which didn't provide us with much comfort. I strongly believe if your child doesn't fit the mold of their concept of a perfect child, there will be red flags that they will not welcome you back, soon. Not every child is the same and they did nothing to help with my daughter's social integration troubles. Which by the way, is completely normal and even more so since she is a Covid baby. More and more I researched and spoke to other preschools, Covid babies are showing delays since the world stopped for 2 years. I am not making excuses for my child and will be the first one to admit she is strong-willed and determined. Those attributes are wonderful if channeled the right way. This school is not for your child if your child shows any type of out-of-the-mold behavior. The classroom was absolute chaos, my daughter's diaper was always dirty picking her up, the wrong clothing was sent home often, and never once did I hear anything positive about my daughter doing well. Furthermore, we got a week's notice that she wasn't welcome back the next month, we were told we should keep an eye on some behaviors & get her assessed as she might have something wrong with her. Since then I have gotten 2nd, 3rd, and 4th opinions from qualified individuals, and think this is ridiculous & untrue. You have no idea, how horrible this felt, and I hope was a true intention on their end but I doubt it. What really bothered me was on her last day, we walked in to put her lunch bag away in her cubby and her name was already taken down from her cubby. It broke my heart because it proved how much they wanted her gone. Luckily, my daughter isn't old enough to understand it, but if she were older that would have been really awful to explain. Now, we have found a fabulous preschool (with the same ratio btw), and my daughter has made a full 360. The teacher is patient, loves kids, and really wants them to do well. Every child is DIFFERENT! Do better Heights Christian. Run this as a school, not a business! read more

My son went here when he was 2.5-3.6yrs. The teachers make this school. We absolutely loved Teacher Jackie and Teacher Christina in rm 15. Teacher Jessica and Amanda are also wonderful and we love the Christian foundation they provided my son. This is a larger preschool and in the beginning there was a high turnover rate with preschool teachers, but for the most part they (the school) really tried to make you feel like family. The school itself is a little dated but before I left they were starting to make wonderful changes (painting/replacing the main sign/replaced the outdoor furniture/etc). I hope they plan to update the classrooms bec they definitely need it. read more

My now three-year-old started in September 2021, I went to many different preschools and toured several of them and found that Heights Christian was exactly what I was looking for. The Director Mrs. Calabrese was absolutely wonderful and made me feel comfortable bringing my son here, especially since he had been taken care of at home during the last 2 1/2 years. All of the teachers have been great and loving, and I have seen my son grow in leaps and bounds with his speech and learning so much about Jesus that it absolutely warms my heart that I picked the right school for him. He has made many friends at the school and the parents are all awesome and great! Summer has been great and my son is loving the water activities, he comes home singing a new song daily and they are even helping with potty training! This is a busier campus and has a lot of kids which is what I wanted so he can interact with more kids! They have 3 different playgrounds based in age and all the teachers are beyond sweet. My So. Cried if I pick him up too early because he loves it so much! read more

My husband and I went on a tour at this preschool for our daughter with Ms. Rolon. She was very nice and informative. On our tour we visited the classroom my daughter would be in if we decided to enroll her at this preschool. I believe first impressions are everything, and I will say the two teachers in this classroom did not provide a warm greeting and were not friendly. Although lunchtime was beginning and they were busy with the kids, it doesn't take much to put on a smile and provide a warm greeting. My observation of the classroom was that it wasn't very clean and updated. I will say these were just two of the main factors we decided not to enroll our daughter at this preschool. read more

I sent my daughter here for a week and it seemed very promising. The teachers were kind and understanding. I was thankful and I thought to myself: I found a good school for my 3 year old daughter. However, I immediately took my daughter out of this school when they called me notifying me that my daughter was not moving her arm. I took her to the hospital and her elbow was dislocated. Most often times, an elbow dislocation happens in toddlers because of sudden pulling or yanking. I don't even want to imagine what the teacher did to my toddler... read more

I went in for a tour and noticed their main gate was left open. I tried closing it but it didn't lock so anyone could come in and out. Immediately I saw some kids playing by the fence without supervision. I did see an adult far away by the playground but the kids were left alone to come near the gate. I was worried the kids could run out any second. Also administrators were not friendly at all. Probably worst service out of all Christian/private schools I have been to. read more

I sent my sons to Heights Christian and would like to add that the very best teachers my wife and I got to know were Mrs. Calabrese and Mrs. Allies. Neither are with the company any longer. I'm disgusted with the Heights Christian Administration on their treatment of their staff. Heights Christian is not a ministry. It's a business seeped in nepotism. There's so much I can elaborate on about the current and past owners and their extended family that currently work there. If you're a parent and are considering this campus, I highly recommend you look elsewhere. Save your money and home school or send to public school. I regret sending my sons to heights Christian schools. read more

Our son has been coming here since K and is now in 3rd grade. He attends their summer program and day care too. The extra curricular activities they offer are top notch (my son is currently in drama and worship team). I am always blown away by the efforts the school and staff put into the education of the students, the building of their character and faith, and the fun they genuinely have with them. They throw family festivals a couple times a year! Did I mention car line?! You literally can drop off/pick up your child without getting out of your car. The staff escort your child into your car, help buckle them, and send you on your way. We love this school, the staff, and the community of parents! read more

My children (5 and 3) both went/go here from 6 months through Kindergarten. They have a very loving staff and they truly care about your children. They do a good job of balancing academics and play. They are well-organized and do all sorts of fun activities for the kids and parents such as parades, art shows, crazy hat day, dress up days, Thanksgiving programs, Christmas programs, etc. As with all schools, the more you put in, the more you get out of it. Talk to the teachers to see how your child is doing in class, ask about their emotional maturity, get to know some of the other parents. Also make sure to follow up the lessons they teach at school are reinforced at home. The school makes it easy to work on things with your child at home to complete the learning circle. read more

My 3 year-old son goes here. At first I thought this place would be like church=friendly environment but it's not. Preschool is not ran by Friends church and it shows. From the management levels to the teachers, it seems very business like and doesn't feel so welcoming at all. You take your kids to preschool and you expect friendly welcoming but not here. Half of the time I don't even get to say hi to the teacher. These people are here for profit not for a caring... read more

Parents are charged $200 to register and then $100 every February after that. Preschool has a strong smell of pee. They keep the ratios high, very busy center, also center is on a busy road, however there is adequate parking for parents dropping off. read more

My oldest attended this school from age 2.5 to 5 years old, and my youngest has been here since he was 13 weeks old (currently 1 year old). We love this school and highly recommend it to others. I can't say enough about the teachers and staff: this school has such a caring, loving, and enthusiastic staff, and every teacher and staff member I see on campus, whether they are my child's teacher or not, knows both of my kids' names, and greets us warmly every day. You can just tell that the teachers and staff really care about the children. It's such a professional and warm environment, and this makes me feel so good about leaving my child in the care of the teachers there. Having no family in the area to help with childcare during the work-week, and having had a bad experience with an in-home daycare prior to starting here, it's been such a relief to know that I can trust that my child is well-taken care of when I leave him here every morning. The teachers here show so much respect and love to your child, and really take care of your kids like they're their own. It's really pretty wonderful, and gives me so much peace of mind. Besides all of the tender-loving care, this school also does a great job of preparing your child academically, and, most of all, teaching them lessons from the Bible. They have some really fun and creative programs, events, and projects for kids in all age groups. I'm so thankful every day that we were able to send both kids to this school - I really can't fathom sending them anywhere else. read more

The staff is warm and caring about the children. My son is always happy when I get there to pick him up from daycare.

My two children have gone to this preschool and I am very satisfied with their service. The staff has always been friendly to me, my wife, and most importantly my kids. The place is run well and they have many activities for the kids. read more

The teachers and staff are amazing. The children there are so happy. We are so blessed to have our kid attend at that school. The attention that each child receives and custom to their needs is heart warming. At first, we didn't know what to expect. But as the years go by, our child is thriving and growing more positive and more motivated. The summer fun program is also a bonus and super fun for the kids. Creates great fun memories and experiences. Thank you Christian Heights!! read more

Our daughter loves it here!!! We've had a wonderful experience with the teachers and the director. We also love the Christian aspect of this school. We are signing up our son to start later this year and we're excited for his development at this wonderful program. read more

I LOVE this school! My oldest has been going since preschool and my youngest has been attending since 13 weeks old. The entire staff is amazing! All the teachers know all the students which makes the environment very warm home-like and family friendly. Not only is their academic program amazing but they also teach the fundamentals and importance of GOD. BONUS! I couldn't be more happier with this school and feel truly blessed my kids are able to attend here. :) read more

I love this school. My 3 year old daughter goes to this school since March. She loves her school. Teachers are so friendly and they have many events that kids can enjoy. I highly recommend this school. read more

Both my children go to the pre-school at the Brea location. I can't say enough on how pleased we are. Academically, my children are doing quite well, but most importantly they teach lessons from the Bible that supplements what we teach at home. Wonderful caring teachers!!! read more

I have been attending HCS for six years. Both of my kids started there at 3 months old and now one is in the elementary school there and the other at the preschool. This program is a great program. All the teachers are wonderful with the kids. As a working parent I love that they always have care available and only close once a year around Christmas time. Both my kids love it there and look forward to attending school daily. I would definately recommend HCS. read more
