All of my friends and family have tswitch their kids from other schools over to GG. I even had friends driving from Long Beach to take theirs. This is a high quality education with a high level of care for a very affordable price.

I highly recommend this school to parents who value education and quality care for their kids. Our…read moredaughter had been going there since preschool and she just finished Kindergarten. She LOVES all of her teachers: Ms. Sam and Ms. Tina. We noticed a huge improvement during the first couple of months after transferring her here from another pre-school. She barely knew her Alphabets at the time, but after only a few months, she was able to read a few simple words. Mrs. Lee, the principal, told us when we enrolled our daughter that she would be able to read and write by the time she finishes her Pre-K and honestly I was a little skeptical then. However, she was right! By the time our daughter graduated from Kindergarten, she was able to read at a 2nd grade level and pretty much done with her 1st grade math curriculum. Besides focusing on academia, the teachers and the principal gave their students many opportunities to play, do their arts and crafts, dance and perform on stage. Their tuition even included weekly Taekwondo lessons. The school also organized additional fun activities with outside vendors such as mobile petting zoo, field trips etc. All the kids got to perform on stage twice a year (at Christmas and graduation ceremony) and we enjoyed watching all of them so much. It was incredible to see how the little ones were able to learn and do so much more than we thought . Ms. Sam is the sweetest, most energetic and effective teacher we have ever known. She is definitely loved by all of her students. We are glad that we have decided to keep her there for her Kindergarten year as I was tempted to put her in a tuition-free public school. In our opinion, it was worth it to pay for the additional year due to the invaluable lessons and experiences the school offered. Now we wish this school offered higher grade levels so we can keep sending her there. This is a Christian-based school. Even though we are not Christians, we are glad that they teach the kids to be grateful, kind, loving and be aware of God's presence. They learn to be thankful to all the blessed things they have. They learn The Pledge of Allegiance and national anthems of the U.S. which are all great things to help building a child's ethical and moral values. Garden Grove 1st Preschool and Kindergarten has really exceeded our family's expectations. We truly can't thank the teachers, Mrs. Lee and the staffs enough! We are forever grateful for their hard-work and support.

I graduated from Padre Pio Academy in 2017. I can honestly say that Padre Pio Academy is my second…read morehome. The teachers here are so dedicated. My classmates became my family. My teachers became second parents. The faith is taught every day, in every classroom. We would pray the rosary every day, and every Friday the whole school goes to mass. During my first semester at college, I had an A+ in college level mathematics, and an A in college writing. I know that my education at PPA prepared me very well for college. I love this school. I can't wait to send my own children here someday.

DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD HERE! This school is filled with nothing but bullies. I went here from…read morekindergarten to high school and was treated terrible by not only other students but the teachers as well. The principle is not a nice person. The education is terrible considering what you are paying. This school teaches you your faith while giving examples of how a catholic should not be behave. The teachers constantly would make fun or scream at the students in front of the whole school (it's extremely small) instead of nicely taking them aside and confronting them about the personal issue. I cried at least once a week after school and had such bad anxiety before class because of how mean the teachers were. There is also a very bad favoritism problem. Your grade is solely based on how favorited you are and if the teachers don't like you than you're screwed. Instead of detention, like a normal school, the make you do yard work for a week during your recess and lunch ( that whole week you don't get recess or lunch because you raking leaves in the front). When I transferred to my other high school in 2019 I was embarrassed on how little I knew and I had to be held back. the pandemic hit after I transferred and I am so mad that my only school memories are from this shit school. Overall you'd be better off at Public school or homeschooled because you learn nothing here besides exactly opposite of what God would want.

He knows friends from different grades. He would not want to go to a different school. Parents are very caring and supportive of the school and the students.

I admire their energy and the parents who have been supporting the school. I can trust the sisters to provide religious education to my child. I appreciate all the parents' work fundraising for the school projects and the school staff for keeping the environment safe and caring for the students.

I absolutely love OC Montessori Academy! If you're looking for childcare or a school for your…read morechild, I highly recommend this program. I want to acknowledge all of the wonderful teachers, staff, and especially the Director, Mrs. Karen, for their dedication and care. The Montessori approach, combined with the academic and extracurricular programs, truly supports children in developing their academic, emotional, social, and communication skills. My son, who is now 17, attended OC Montessori Academy years ago, and now my daughter is enrolled. One of the most meaningful parts of our experience is that my son's preschool teacher, Ms. Teama, is now my daughter's teacher -- which speaks volumes about the consistency and long-term commitment of the staff. I was amazed to see how quickly my daughter began reading and writing in kindergarten. She has advanced tremendously, and the confidence she carries in her learning has been incredible to witness. I was especially impressed when she volunteered to recite a poem for her Kindergarten graduation. This moment showed how OC Montessori Academy empowers children with confidence, independence, and public communication skills that will benefit them for life. I'm so grateful for the foundation OC Montessori and incredible staff has given both of my children. This school is truly a gem!

Our son has a speech delay and can become frustrated when he's unable to express his needs, but his teacher, Ms. Cecile, has been incredibly patient, supportive, and motivating in helping him communicate more. We've already seen such positive growth in his confidence and willingness to talk. The director, Ms. Kiran, is also very kind, accommodating, and genuinely caring. It's clear that everyone here truly cares about the children and creates a warm, loving environment for them to grow and learn in. As a parent, it means so much to know your child is in good hands. Highly recommend this preschool to any family looking for a nurturing and supportive place for their child.
