Introducing him to French at an early age from the mommy and moi program as a toddler to starting full time classes at Pre-K, he is code switching from English to French and singing songs he learns in class. We do not speak French in our household and this School gives my son French cultural and language experience. The faculty and staff have been very supportive and welcoming us to the school. I appreciate the faculty to student ratio. The teachers are very caring and nurturing. My son goes to school every morning with a smile. Great French Immersion School in Orange County accredited by French Ministry of Education.

Many day cares just seemed like drop off places with not much structured activities while preschools really emphasized their curriculum. We chose to take the preschool route. We also wanted our son to learn a new language and French was a great choice based on his heritage and we love the French culture. We visited the school back in February and Tiphaine and the rest of the staff was fantastic. We had a lot of questions and they really spent the time to walk us through everything. We got a really nice preview of the schools's warm culture. Our son has now been in preschool for the past month and it's been amazing to see him grow, learn French, make new friends, and we can see he is happy and excited to go everyday. PROS: - small teacher to students ratio - friendly community - engaged PA with bunch of events (some virtuals for busy parents and some F2F in the evenings) - caring staff with a new head (Frederique) - designed curriculum - after school activities (sports, yoga, spanish) - early and late drop off / day care options CONS: - tuition is on the high side (monthly installments as an option). But the cost is well worth it and we are just very impressed so far with everything. So glad we have found this schooo!!

My son has been attending Edgewood Preprimary Academy for almost a year, and he is always so happy…read moreevery day! His teacher, Mrs. Barajas, is incredibly patient and energetic. My son loves her very much. Even though English is not his first language, she always finds great ways to communicate with him and has helped him tremendously in learning English. The Director, Mrs. Mauro, is very responsible and caring. She knows every single child well and takes time with parents to discuss each child's growth and needs. With the cooperation between the school and parents, children truly get the best support to grow. Edgewood also offers a variety of fun activities and even field trips, which both we and our child really enjoy. Before choosing Edgewood, I toured many daycares and preschools in Irvine and Tustin. What impressed me the most about Edgewood is the amazing student-teacher ratio. Their teachers are always energetic, passionate, and have been working here for many years -- the turnover rate is very low. If you are looking for a school with small class sizes where teachers can give more attention to each child and really get to know them, Edgewood is the best choice. The teachers here truly love every child. And beyond all that, the school offers excellent value for the quality of education provided in this area -- something that makes us appreciate our choice even more.

I want to especially highlight Mrs. Mauro, the Director, and Mrs. Barajas, my son's classroom teacher. Mrs. Mauro is a very responsible and attentive leader. She knows every child well and communicates with parents in a smooth and timely way. Whenever there's a question or concern, she addresses it right away, which gives me so much peace of mind. Mrs. Barajas is incredibly gentle and patient. My son is quite energetic and not the easiest little one to guide, but she always takes the time to teach him with kindness and understanding. I'm truly grateful for her dedication. As a parent, it makes me feel very fortunate to have such supportive and caring educators helping me on the journey of raising my child. Edgewood is truly a wonderful place for young children to learn and grow.

We've been at Fairmont North Tustin campus for 3 years. I thought it had a health office and health…read morestaff (I'm not even asking for an RN, just a health staff member), just like other schools. All Irvine public schools have health rooms and health staff on campus. Stupid me -- I assumed that at the very least this so-called private school would have such a fundamental facility and staff. But no. Today I found out there's no health office and no sick room where a child can at least lie down for a while until a parent arrives. I'm in shock. What kind of risky, scammy school have I put my child into for the past 3 years? This campus just spent a lot of money on expansion and also raised tuition fees. It's ridiculous to find out that behind all those price increases and fancy upgrades, no one seems to care about students' health -- and none of that money appears to have gone toward improving health support for the kids. No health office. Not even one health staff member. Not even a sick room for students to rest. -- In response to your reply: Thank you for reminding me -- although your non-medical staff determined (since there is no health clerk or school nurse on campus) that "it's better to remain in an upright position in a chair, while ensuring attentive care and comfort," when I arrived, my pale six-year-old child was kneeling on the ground, coloring on a piece of paper and using a wooden bench next to the reception desk as a flat surface. There is no health clerk. The temporary reception teacher was busy with her own duties. I did not see any "assured attentive care and comfort." Instead, I observed teachers who appeared reluctant to be involved, likely because without a designated health staff member, temporarily caring for a sick child simply adds to their already full workload. Where is the "bed" or the "attentive care and comfort" you mentioned? All I saw was a small, cold wooden bench near the reception area, with people walking around. Considering the level of tuition families pay, our children deserve more than this. Three different staff members confirmed to me yesterday that there is no bed available for a sick student. Therefore, the only way I was able to learn that such an option supposedly exists was through a Yelp review. Reality is reality. Parents, please do your research before sending your child to a so-called private school: * Is there a health room or a designated sick resting area -- like those available in Orange County public schools? * Is there a school health clerk available on campus -- as in Orange County public schools? * Do teachers even know whether the so-called "bed for sick students" actually exists? Despite the amount of money families invest in a private school that lacks even fundamental health support, it is worth considering whether the absence of a basic health office or a health clerk could place students at greater risk in certain situations.

My 4-year-old daughter started TK at Vibrant Minds Charter School in Anaheim about four months ago,…read moreand I can't express how grateful I am that we found this school. They use a play-based approach for TK and Kindergarten, which has truly been a gift for my daughter. Her classroom is warm and joyful, filled with Montessori-style materials that spark curiosity, including a wooden kitchen, building blocks, art stations, and community tables where the kids learn to work together. She also gets tons of outdoor time every day, which has made a huge difference in her mood and energy. At her previous preschool/daycare, there were days she didn't want to go because she said there was "too much learning," and she just wanted to play. I assume she meant too many worksheets. At Vibrant Minds, the learning happens through play, and the difference has been amazing. Even with all the play, she's learned so much. In just four months, she has come home counting to 10, rhyming words, and starting to read by sounding out letters. One of the biggest changes I noticed was after school. At her old preschool/daycare, I often had to take her to the playground because she still had so much energy. Now, when I pick her up, she tells me she's already played outside a lot and just wants to go home and relax. To me, that's a sign that her needs are truly being met during the school day. Even better, she genuinely looks forward to going to school each morning. There's no rush, no resistance, just excitement. As a parent, that feeling is everything. She loves her teacher and her classmates. I also appreciate that Vibrant Minds is a charter school, which means it's free and publicly funded but has more flexibility in how it designs its programs. You can really feel that thoughtfulness in the way the school is run. Even something as simple as pick-up and traffic flow shows how much the staff cares. During the first week at the new location, they were out there every day adjusting the system, trying different approaches, and making changes until everything ran smoothly. We've had such a positive experience so far, and I'm so thankful my daughter gets to start her school journey here. It really feels like a place where she's seen, supported, and able to thrive.
