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.

These kids have plenty of time for movement throughout their day with class engagement both in and outside classroom . The kids do lots of hands on learning with science experiments, gardening, woodworking, knitting, painting and lots of language literacy through theater plays and class engagement. The school teaching methods are based on Rudolph Steiner's pedagogy which focuses on the needs of the child. A big focus is teaching the whole child following human developmental studies. The parent involvment and community of this school is terrific and every school event has been filled with so much fun and is very family friendly. I love this school. I would highly recommend it to many.

This church is an amazing haven of traditional Catholicism in Orange County. Every time I visit…read morethis church, I am amazed at the vibrant Christian community that exists here. They have a school and many groups and organizations, including a Catholic Men's Group which meets every Sunday at 11:30 am. The Mass celebrated here is the old Latin Mass which the Catholic Church used for almost 2000 years before the 1970s. If you live in Orange county and you want to see how Catholics worshipped historically, visit this church!

They welcome all Evangelical Christians with the understanding that the classroom and Biblical instruction is taught from the perspective of the Westminster Standards and Reformed Confessions of Faith. In addition, the Administrators, School Board (with multiple parents serving) and Teachers really value parent involvement. My spouse and I are involved and our input is appreciated. If you are looking for a co-op-like school that you can be involved with -- CCA is for you! My child's Kindergarten teacher was very receptive to working with me. Last year my child learned to read, write (handwrite and cursive), was doing addition and subtraction. He grew tremendously in confidence and sense of self. My child also memorized multiple poems and Bible verses during the year in addition to 60+ questions and answers of the Catechism for Young Children. The staff creates an environment where all of the children, grades K-8, encourage and support one another. When my son comes to school, the other kids run up to the gate jumping up and down to welcome him. He loves school! The teachers helped to fuel my child's interests as well. All of the students presented in their Science Fair last year, including the Kinders, and my child LOVED it because he is really excited about science. The school sets aside specific days for the arts and PE and the students perform (music and drama!) each year. We are going to start our second year with CCA. We are so excited to have some new teachers this year too! Check it out :)

Spelling Bees, art fair, fall festival and even drill team or basketball- this is what school is supposed to be about and Bethany is doing it right every single day. Everyone is beyond nice and helpful to parents. It is also refreshing that as a parent we are welcomed to join the kids at chapel. Good for kids and even myself to start the week right plus i am able to connect more with my kids! I feel blessed our kids are able to attend school at Bethany. Your kid will thank you as well.

I had made an oath and felt genuinely called to go pray. When I arrived, Mass was already in progress, but I only intended to quietly join for a few minutes. As I walked in, an older woman at the front stopped me. I was wearing a hat, which I planned to remove once I sat down, but before I could do that, she told me I wasn't allowed to enter. I asked why, explaining that I just wanted to pray and be part of the service. She refused and told me I couldn't come in. Then, she went as far as to physically hit my hat and told me I was being disrespectful. I asked again if she was seriously denying me access to join the Mass and pray, and she said yes. She told me to go to the chapel instead if I wanted to pray. I've never experienced anything like this before especially in a place that's supposed to be open to anyone seeking God. It felt wrong to be turned away like that when all I wanted was to pray and express gratitude.
