I am thrilled to share our experience with Coach Kelly, my son's swimming instructor. From the very…read morefirst lesson, her patience and professionalism stood out, creating a nurturing environment where my son felt comfortable to learn and grow. Her teaching style is incredibly effective, blending fun with structured lessons that keep my son engaged and motivated. I've watched him progress remarkably under her guidance, overcoming challenges and building confidence in the water. Moreover, it's evident how much my son loves her as an instructor; he looks forward to each lesson with excitement. It's not just about technique for her; she fosters a genuine love for swimming that will last a lifetime. I cannot recommend Coach Kelly highly enough! She has truly made a positive impact on my son's swimming journey, and we are so grateful for her dedication and expertise.

Had a math teacher who claimed his name was Vargnez, said he was a rapper, talked to the boys the whole time, and never taught us any math. This was pre-algebra; we needed that math to go on to high school. He didn't teach a shit Had a very old, very British cat lady for a vice principal. She would show us her many fostered kittens, and also, didn't you say about the bullying I received I was called a snitch by several boys because I snitched on them to the principal, who proceeded to do nothing And every single website, including Google, was blocked on the school Chromebooks so ya, it was pretty bad

Four years ago I was faced with a decision....where do I put my daughter for 6th grade? My…read moredaughter has ADHD accompanied with an auditory processing disorder. At that time she was attending a small public school in West Hollywood in a class of 36 children with no teachers assistants. She was completely lost in all subjects, which also led to low self esteem. She was limited to 45 minutes of resources per day, which was really the only help/ teaching she received, the rest of the days were a loss. Through a friend, we were referred to Summit View West. I scheduled an appointment to take a tour of the school (four years ago)and brought my daughter along. That day, my daughter made her decision...she said, "this is the school that I need. I don't want any other school but here! Do what you have to do to get me into this school!"....and I did. Today, my daughter will be entering her third year at Summit View West, and every day that goes by we feel blessed that we are part of this amazing school. Since my daughter started, she has only become more confident in all subjects, and she embraces learning new concepts. The teachers make sure all students are on the same page and, with an understanding of the material before they move on. The administration is always welcoming and hypersensitive to any concerns a parent or student might have. The school is a loving community that looks out of one another. I feel that if anyone leaves a negative yelp comment about Summit View West, it is only out of frustration of not having their child funded by their school's district, or the Help Group does not think the school is the right fit for the child in question. The administration is highly educated, qualified and familiar with making the right decisions that would best fit the students needs.

Finding Park Century School (we are currently finishing up our first year there) has been one of…read morethe best things to happen to our family. The staff, the teachers - all incredible and everyone is focused on the same goal - our daughter's academic success. She was starting to disengage at her previous school because it simply wasn't set up to meet her needs. Since joining Park Century, she has transformed. She is thriving, happy, and settling into middle school with a confidence we weren't sure we'd ever see. Middle school is a hard transition for any kid, and even harder when you learn differently. Park Century makes it feel manageable -- because they have a plan, decades of experience and a proven method. We are so grateful to have found a community that sees our child for who she is and gives her the tools, on her timeline, for independence and success. We can't recommend Park Century highly enough.

This school is horrible I went there for 2nd through 8th and if it wasn't for family conflict I…read morewould have loved to have left after the 3rd grade after the extra help I needed was reached. The school is called park century and yet no park we were promised a park the entire time I was there and I think to my knowledge they still don't have a park. There where good teachers at points but after Doug Phelps was hired he kind of did away with anything positive and made it into a helicopter parents dream it was ridiculous honestly how fast it got so bad and I had to stick around through all of it so I might just be a little extra angry quite honestly. As well i remember by the science room it would always smell bad and the majority of the school would honestly smell sort of bad which was always strange also the fact I still remember this has got to mean something as I left 6ish years ago. As well I remember the art teacher we had was horrible (Christina) and a bore that was far from insightful on anything and I mean anything artistic she would just show slides then make us make copy's of Mondrian or whatever artist she chose that week. I think this is kind of indicative of how the entire school operates, a lot of saying they encourage hands on learning but then only actually allowing a very small amount of actual hands on learning and having just endless lectures on what felt like nothing. They treated the kids as if left alone we went be able to survive for 30 minutes alone which is just silly and it's just far too much cuddling to actually allow any real experience or learning. Also everything said by other reviewers about allowing the children of wealthier families preferential treatment is entirely true. Also there was a bullying problem but that's a completely different story. Also they where just incredible ridged the entire time and made it feel like you couldn't be a kid or have any natural experience unless it went with their very very strict rules that I imagine cater to some parents with more sway over the schools wishes. At the end of the day just Dont send your children there even though there where some positive it's like so heavily outweighed by the amount of bad like a grain of rice versus the sun on a scale and if your kids are there already pull them out and demand a refund. In short the school is a joke and horrible dont send your children there unless you want to ruin their futures it's a horrible farce of place and there is nothing more to say about it really.

Thank You Jaime for such a down to earth and informative class. My husband and I initially went to…read morethe free Kaiser classes and were not as happy with the impersonal feeling we got from a group class with close to 75 people. We looked around online and came across Ask A Mama which seemed more up our alley with a hands on and small group approach. Jamie is very knowledgeable about all things infant and in addition to lecture/instruction time, she presented information in a very open forum type of manner which easily lended itself for questions from the participants. As many know, when you take that trip into motherhood, people will offer you their opinions regardless if you ask for them or not. Jamie's personality was easy going and non-judgmental which I think is perfect for first time moms. It was refreshing to take part in such a great class. And a bonus? She came with snacks for the group! What a tremendous resource this class was!

Being first time parents, we're anxious/scared/terrified/excited, etc and Jamie really put our nerves to rest! She came fully prepared, provided us a thorough handout and walked us step by step through: swaddling, changing diapers and clothes, sponge baths and umbilical stump care. She showed us a few tricks of the trade and told us what products we still needed to get. Having Jamie come in to our home and really set us up was definitely worth it. She was patient, non- judgmental and very kind. 100% recommend her! I've already emailed her with a few follow up questions ;) Now if she could just induce labor, we'd be set!!

We were concerned at first that he would struggle learning Spanish because we are an English-speaking household, but we're partway through the semester now and already he's excited and confident to practice his language skills. The teachers at this school are fantastic. They care about the academic success and emotional well-being of their students, and I am so impressed by the differentiated learning that happens. My son has been challenged in the areas where he excels and given extra help where he struggles. They also have so many extras: gardening, cooking, library, art, and more. The parent community is very passionate and there are many opportunities to be involved if that's what you're looking for. Basically, I can't say enough good things about this school! We left a highly competitive charter to come here and I'm so glad we made that choice.
