I moved to Sacramento from San Jose in 2014. My daughter finished first grade in Carmichael elementary where she suffered tremendously. The teacher did not put the attention and dedication a teacher is responsible for, consequently leaving my daughter struggling even more than she was before. I was finally able to put my daughter in Deterding Elementary. Mrs. Morganstern was an Angel in disguise. She immediately recognized my daughter frustration and how behind she was in her academics. She met with me and developed a plan for my daughter success. She and other teachers organized an after school tutoring program for kids like my daughter to get that extra help they needed. I couldn't believe the dedication and care these teachers like Mrs. Morganstern genuinely give to their students. When she found out that my daughter was moving from school to school, and yet moving again to Santa Cruz, she quickly contacted me strongly concerned a

A MUST READ IF CONSIDERING SENDING A STUDENT. Worth noting-…read moreWe did lots of research prior to deciding on this school and saw the reviews good and bad on every school review site. I have to say the bad reviews are 100% accurate. Our student had no issues academically or with regards to conduct and completed primary grades in another Catholic school, we are familiar with the system. This is an honest review sharing points that I find valuable to know ahead of time as this is a huge commitment for families Let's be clear, there is no "brotherhood" here. This is a study in what politics and donations can do in EVERY aspect. If you are not donating (in addition to tuition), alumni or "legacy" you should expect nothing. We realized this a few months in and gave our child time to come to it on his own. Six months later, we left. It's a hard lesson..learn from ours. Here is what they do not tell you: *Not all families pay full tuition-so be prepared to take it on the chin subsidizing others while they continue to ask you for more. *The school is proud of how many families travel from all over the Sacramento area to attend-yet they do not respect families time. I'm not sure who can handle fluctuating start and end times each week, but it got old really quick. *Additionally, you will have additional trips to the school numerous times a year to satisfy other requirements for performing arts participation -when your child is not in performing arts. This may not sound like much, but it added up to extra HOURS for our family. *There are some really good teachers there, but a few that shared their views on racial issues too frequently. *A staff member was inclined to call and try and pick a fight to remind us that we signed and agreed to our son participating in what the school believes in when we questioned the safety of a required "volunteer" activity around homeless. A child is not a car contract , and parents never relinquish their rights by signing their kid up for school. If you are familiar with Catholic education, most schools acknowledge they are the secondary, behind parents in forming students. That is not the case here. *Be prepared that if you are not doing the extras above, your child will not see any real athletic opportunities for sports. These spots and spotlights are reserved for donors/alumni, etc. *They say they do not offer athletic scholarships. Yet, many kids are there because the school enticed them $ and openly share the details with other students. Several sleep in class and do not appear to want to be there or understand the opportunity given to them. * No surprise, drugs are on campus and the admin does a decent job addressing it. * They have no tolerance cheating policy which is great. But we lost count of how many messages we saw other students asking to copy our students' work. We thought we did our homework and jumped through every hoop-and for us it was a joke. We spent over 3 hrs a day commuting, + $ and we have no idea what it was for. Save your money for your child's college.

Being a graduate of Cordova High, Class of Eternal Youth, I remember running laps around the parks's duck pond and enjoying all the shady trees and nature during gym class. The campus is very open and sprawl. Multiple buildings housing difference class subjects , are surrounded by mature evergreens, shady leaf trees, lush green grass, and neatly paved walkways spotted with benches to relax on. It's a good size campus with lots of room for sports activities. I saw a huge base field, football stadium, track, basketball, tennis courts , and more. It's pretty fantastic that the city of Rancho Cordova has such a well maintained campus. I see it as a positive atmosphere where young minds can thrive. Various athletes and media people have graduated from Cordova and moved onto huge success. You know Lester Holt from NBC... yup successful Cordova grad. And you know there's obviously me... :)

It deserves commendation that this relatively small school has such committed staff and it was evident from the moment you walked into the ceremony. It was evident in their warm greeting as you entered through the doors, their effort to keep the focus on the kids and their families and to the plenty of security personnel present to keep an eye on things. While not a parent of a student (just an aunt) I was moved to write this review because this small staff has raised a large sum in scholarships to provide to their students. The staff is clearly bonded to the kids and it was touching. This year 8 kids rec'd scholarships including the munchkin I was supporting today. It's quite a phenomenal feat to raise these funds and this act shows genuine commitment to their students. Thank you Charter Choices for your commitment to the children.

There's another review here that explains more but being a student there is like surviving a crack apocalypse. You try not to get affected or touched, you have to think hard and watch your back 24/7.
