A lot of the teachers here have been with Canyon Rim since I went there and it opened in 2003, I really think that speaks volumes!! The principal, Mr Lopat, is fabulous. He's at the drop off and pickup car line everyday and loves getting to know the kids and parents. Canyon rim offers a traditional vs conventional classroom options so kids can learn the best way for them. I love this school and would recommend it any day!

This school refuses to accept kids who have mental health issues impacting their attendance. This school does not go through the proper policies to inves bullying.

The teachers break HIPPA violations and are not trained in how to handle a student who is special needs they are a very passive aggressive organization.

I honestly cannot say enough great things about this school! From the front office staff to the…read moreprincipal, everyone has gone above and beyond to make my children and our family feel welcomed, supported, and cared for. It truly feels like a community and a family, not just a school. This is the first year the school has combined two locations into one, so of course there are going to be things they are learning and working through along the way. I would encourage anyone considering the school not to believe everything you may read or hear without experiencing it for yourself. Like any new transition, there are growing pains, but what stands out to me is that the staff genuinely listens, works hard to improve, and never fails to show up for the students and families. The front office and principal have been incredibly supportive and have always made me feel like my children matter. I feel comfortable knowing that my children are in great hands, and that they are surrounded by people who truly care about their education, their well-being, and their future. I would absolutely recommend this school to other families. No school is going to be perfect, especially during a year of such a big transition, but what matters is having a team that cares enough to keep learning, improving, and going above and beyond for their students. This school has shown me that, and I'm grateful my children are here!

Absolutely love LLA my boys have done so much better in school. Staff is very caring!read more

My kids have been at St. John Bosco for two years now (currently grades 3 and K), and I only wish…read morewe had landed here sooner. Compared to other schools we've been at (a mix of private and public), SJB feels so much more like a community. In a perfect world I would love for my kids to have an old fashioned school experience - riding their bikes to school with all the neighborhood kids, everyone knowing everyone. But living in deep Ahwatukee, far from walking distance to any school, and in a neighborhood where kids go to at least 5 different public/charter/private elementary schools, that just wasn't going to happen. But the way SJB operates, it feels like the next best thing. If you're considering SJB, my best advice is to take a tour during the school day. Bonus if you can be there to witness a pickup/drop off, when all the parents and students are chatting and catching up in the courtyard like one big family. Once the school day starts you'll see such respectful kids and caring teachers working together in the classrooms as well as in the outdoor spaces. The academic standards are high, but the vibe is warm and welcoming. And because it's on the smaller side (50 kids per grade, max), the staff is able to work with students individually as needed, something that has been a huge benefit for my family. I'm so happy to have found the right school for us, especially knowing that my kids can thrive there all the way through 8th grade!

We had a really good experience with the Kyrene District elementary program but found their middle…read moreschool system lacking in many areas. That is when after much research I choose Chandler Preparatory Academy for my children to attend both middle school and high school. We have been a CPA family for over 4 years. Both children transitioned very well from public school to the Great Hearts culture. It only took about a week for them to get used to the uniforms! I feel that the stricter dress code and restrictions on personal electronics help my children to focus in the classroom and develop better relationships with their teachers and peers. Both children quickly found very positive and encouraging friend groups. We have had no issues with bulling or harassment. Attending CPA through COVID was a godsend as the entire Great Hearts operation was dedicated to getting children safely back into the classroom. Where last year my children were able to attend school in person for 90% of the school year, my neighborhood high school was online for three quarters. I am very satisfied on how CPA mitigated COVID and continues to provide in person education in a post pandemic world. I find the student body to be diverse and vibrant with students from all different backgrounds. There is a high participation of parent involvement. School pride is evident by the cleanliness and orderly nature of the school grounds. Teachers are highly assessable to both students and parents. Each teacher/class offers weekly tutoring hours. Students also have time after lunch to study, attend tutoring, or get some fresh air on the field. There is a robust mentoring program for new students as well as student lead tutoring programs for math and science above what the teachers offer. My children have very different learning styles where school comes easy for one while the other struggles. Through the CPA ESS program, my youngest gets additional support that helps her be successful with the more rigorous curriculum. I do feel that she would have "gotten lost in the shuffle" at Kyrene Middle School but at CPA she gets the support and encouragement she needs to make learning a positive experience. This school focuses on a classical liberal arts curriculum that not only cultivates the hearts and minds of students in the pursuit of Truth, Beauty and Goodness, but also graduates student leaders that are prepared for success at the college level. The school produces a very well rounded student and encourages, through CPA programs, to participate in athletics, music, art, mentorship, and community service. The Great Hearts school system offers transparency on their budgets, fundraising, and operations, which goes to show that the school motto of Truth, Beauty, and Goodness starts at the very top of the organization. You owe it to your children to consider CPA for their secondary education. Feel free to DM me if you have any questions about CPA.

Chandler prep is an awful school if you're anything other than a straight white cisgender person…read more I've seen people get bullied and the staff did nothing. I got threatened to be killed by another student and the assistant headmaster said "that's just how he is". There also aren't any additional options for what you want to explore such as agriculture, mining, engineering, medicine, and other things that are beneficial for going to college. There is no helpful support if you are struggling, and the administration did nothing but harm and ignore the students and push their ideology upon them. There are some incredible teachers still there. Mr. and Mrs. Myers, Ms. Dupee, Dr. Carpenter, Mr. Allen, Mrs. Amorose. But a lot of the best teachers have left the school. It's not worth sending your children here. They don't gain an education that truly prepares them for college and it is not worth your child's mental health and safety to send them here. CPA is not a good school in the long run, even if their test scores are good.
