We have NEVER had a teacher we did not appreciate. As for the posts regarding bullying. . .I wonder if they are reaching out? Is the school aware of what is going on? I have had bullying issues with my child being on both ends and the school has not only contacted me immediately but helped resolve the issues, whether is be a meeting with teacher/principal, a phone call, or a sit down with other parents. They do have high turn over for principals but it has never really caused us any issues. And they do stress attendance but I cannot imagine any school not. Regular attendance helps the teacher & student build a relationship. Attendance is important!!

The TK she's attending is a lot bigger with a lot of kids and I could only imagine it would have been overwhelming if it was her first school experience. Instead I have an extremely happy 4 year old excited for school every day. LSOTW prepared her for the full time school structure. I would have enrolled her earlier if I knew it would have made such an impact. The staff is extremely friendly and attentive The school is clean and I loved their safety protocols. I looked at other schools around the area when I was looking for a preschool and LSOTW was by far the best. We will miss LSOTW!

Circling back to discuss the "lack of rigor" from another poster. I am a public school educator…read more Many of the teachers here previously taught in the public school system, such as one who taught for 20 years in LAUSD. The rigor is there. The staff emails all the time and answers emails quickly without needing to set up appointments--that's a HUGE difference than public school. What GCS does better than public schools is give grace--late work is accepted, retesting is often offered, and more. The funny thing is, this is an equity issue that many public districts are just now doing--LBUSD and LAUSD both offer these now. GCS has been doing this for YEARS because it's part of the praxis of Christianity--if you can have a second chance, they'll give it to you. So thankful to be part of the GCS community. I never thought we'd be private school people, but Covid changed that. Now I see the huge difference between public and private education--and I teach in a public school.

The school provides healthy lunches and snacks, makes students wash their hands at least 5 times a day and makes them drink water throughout the day. They even brush their hair when they wake up from a nap and put sun block on the kids if it's hot out. That is love. The academic program has well-prepared my son who is now in Kindergarten. My youngest son now attends, and if he cries when I drop him off, the owner or teacher will even text me with pictures saying that he's stopped crying and is playing with his friends. This extra step of them going out of their way to give me peace of mind means so much. In addition, they teach students to be kind, rooted in prayer and patriotic as well! Both my little ones put their hand over the heart for the Pledge and sing and love patriotic songs now. Overall, I can not recommend this place enough. The kids are happy, healthy and cared for. They love their students and it shows!
