Three of our four children have attended WNS, and our youngest is now an 8th grader preparing to matriculate out. What stands out most about WNS is the strong sense of community and the school's genuine commitment to diversity in the student population, administration, and faculty/staff. Our children have been surrounded by classmates and educators from a wide range of backgrounds, which has enriched their learning experience and helped them develop empathy, curiosity, and confidence. The teachers are deeply dedicated and truly know their students, balancing academic rigor with emotional and social growth. Communication with families is excellent, and we've always felt supported and included in our children's educational journey. After a decade at WNS, we can confidently say it has provided our kids with an exceptional foundation both academically and personally. We're so grateful for the warm, inclusive environment and the lifelong friendships our family has built here. If you're considering WNS, we can't recommend it highly enough! It's a wonderful place for children to learn, grow, and thrive.

It was our first choice, and the last few months of her enrollment have only reinforced our decision to enroll her. I was familiar with the rigors of the French academic system as well as the IB program, and this was something we really wanted for our child. It's a very different and richer experience than most American schools. "Diversity" has become narrowly defined. But the international diversity of the students' families is unmatched at other SoCal schools. Yes, many French and Western European family's, as might be expected. But we have families in our class from Asia, Africa and the Middle East, for example. My five year old is already correcting my French (which is admittedly terrible!) and she loves the school and it's the emphasis on language and expression. The teachers are patient and supportive and providing a good balance between structure and flexibility.

As he goes off to college, I have no doubt that the knowledge, curiosity, persistence and leadership he has finessed during his time here, will not only push him to higher heights but will be the tools that he will continue to use to change his world & those he encounters for better. The Head of School leads with wisdom, compassion, empathy, purpose and strength which trickles down to the entire administration. The school has been very instrumental not only in my son's academic journey but in his overall life, tremendously shaping him into the fantastic man he has become. The school truly cares about the students mental health. Although we have completed our academic journey, Geffen Academy will always be the fabric we wear daily. We will forever be a part of this amazing top notch school & community. Once a bruin always a bruin! GO BRUINS

Yes, there…read moreis a lot of money at this school and some of the parents and students remind everyone of the whole who-has-what mentality but my kiddo who is on financial aid has had no problem finding like minded classmates to bond and form relationships with. I can't speak about drop off or pick up lanes because my kid takes a bus, but i will say they do have sunscreen dispensers by the soccer field and they seemed to have been there through out the school year and into summer. The campus is small and they have multiple security staff located at both gates, which is a big relief with all the violence that has happened on campuses all over the country. Everyone is friendly and professional. The girls on the volleyball team are on campus usually pretty late so we've met a lot of the supporting staff who are also very approachable and genuine. Over all I would recommend this school to friends. She's the youngest of six, so this experience has been a total game changer and I understand the desire for private schools who can provide the support and guidance that Marlborough has. The good news is they offer opportunities for students who may not all have the same means. They have uniform swap day where girls can donate their gently used skirts to be donated to new students and students who just do not feel the need or have the finances to buy new. Over all, we have found a wonderful home here. Our youngest is thriving and we couldn't be more grateful!

Great lunch and garden program (ESY), fabulous art teacher (Jamie), and many strong teachers. Families from Hollygrove speak highly of their school as well. Volunteers are appreciated. However, Selma is not recommended and LFP merely a pointless drain on the budget as another review mentioned. Fully 1/2 of students don't make if from elementary to 7-12 class and the school still isn't addressing the primary reasons (poor academics). Selma is literally a revolving door. Many, many administrators and the academics are less challenging than the elementary schools. However if you want edutainment, needs tons of support, etc. it will probably work. Tons of teachers shifted from position to position, very poor reviews, and yet they never leave. Poor treatment and value of volunteers. Zero stars.

I am a former student now in high school, but I still wish I went to Elysian Heights…read more I had a really good time at this little arts magnet! When I was in kindergarten about a decade ago, this school was small, and I mean SMALL. The magnet program was just starting, so I was lucky to have arrived when I did. I believe that art is the number one thing that should be inputted into a student's curriculum, and Elysian is the perfect place for that. If you're planning to send your kid there, expect them to come home with art projects and wanting to be lead of the school's annual play. Expect attending every event the school has: the harvest festival, multicultural fest (if that still happens), holiday shows, spring shows, arts fest...etc! I'm not surprised that Elysian has become a competitive school recently...it's a really great place!! I still go to the harvest and arts festivals every year, and I'm still close friends with people I've known since kinder. Hear this from a former student: this is a really good little arts magnet.
