Chaminade College Prep is one of the best Catholic Middle Schools & High Schools in Los Angeles…read moreCounty. There are personal statements, short essays, 2 letters-if-rec (1 from current teacher & 1 from school principal), STAR test, transcripts, & interviews that are part of the entrance requirements process. In 2025, the middle school instituted an HONORS math placement testing option. The middle school does have honors algebra and geometry until the 8th grade. Mrs Mary Guerra is the head admissions person and she's absolutely amazing and wonderful. Mrs Lotta is also extremely helpful and resourceful. The head of the math department is Mrs Cheek. She's very strict, tough, & extremely helpful to students. Mrs. Sipping who teaches history and religion is both relatable & kind. It can be said that Chaminade isn't without bad teachers, as most schools will have plenty of those. Sports at Chaminade is a big thing because this is how the school and the students attract college & university scholarships. SJE school is one of the biggest feeder school to Chaminade. Just this year we sent 12 fifth graders & 4 eighth graders to Chaminade. So of course the students will know each other and hang out with each other. Chaminade middle school has an 8 House System, like Harry Potter, & this is where kids have a chance to make friends at all levels of the school. I can see and understand that if you start at the Chaminade high school level that it can be tough to adjust. However, if your kids start at the middle school, they will have adjusted and created a pattern of learning and achieving which will propel them in high school. I do recommend Chaminade without any reservations. There's so much to do here, starting at their middle school, that you can't even believe!!

How we wish Egremont offered 6th grade. Our second son continues to attend Egremont School and will continue to do so until he graduates. With this review we aim to express our heartfelt appreciation to Tina Struve - Egremont's Principal. Ms. Struve not only leads with exceptional skill but also with compassion and dedication. We are forever grateful to Ms. Struve, faculty, security, and assistive personnel for creating a nurturing and secure environment where my sons have thrived academically and socially. Throughout the years we have formed lasting friendships that go beyond the school setting. We confidently recommend Egremont School to anyone seeking excellent elementary education for their children. Egremont's specialty classes are wonderful, my sons especially like technology, art, music, and musical theater. Egremont welcomes you as parents and families to be extremely involved in your children's elementary school years. As a family we can't wait to join the festivities: Camping Under the Stars, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Holiday Celebrations. We look forward to school productions such as the Winter Musical, Spring Productions and the Talent Show to name a few. The memories we have created as a family in Egremont will forever live in our hearts. We are familiar with surrounding schools and can guarantee you there is no school that can compare. At Egremont I have peace in mind that my sons are safe and well looked after. Egremont staff welcomes children by their name and ensure school grounds are beautifully maintained, the classrooms are bright, well - organized, and decorated with students' classwork, showcasing the children's learning journey. I asked my older son to share a few words, this is what he had to say: Thank you Ms. Struve and Egremont for everything you have taught me and done for me. I appreciate your kindness and for creating a welcoming feeling every day I walked into school. I felt appreciated and wanted. Almost everything I need to know about middle school was taught there. I hope that its amazing staff will be loved forever and that everything there stays as magical as it was when I went there. I don't think any school can match what Egremont has done for me. Egremont is a place where I can be happy.

Obviously, the disgruntled are more likely to review a school on Yelp. My kid is happy to go to school everyday. He's thriving, learning reading, math, etc. I appreciate that he will be able to stay through middle school (TK-8). True the academics are not rigorous, but I don't believe young students should have copious amounts of HW. Students will be able to adapt to more rigorous academics when the time calls, starting at TK will just burn them out. They focus on socioemotional learning. We have met a lot of great families. The principal is excellent, diplomatic, curious, and competent.

As a new mom, I don't know what I would have done without Ms. Becky in the Panda room. She not only cared for my boys so well, but also answered all my silly "new mom" questions because she is so knowledgeable about what she does. As my kids have gown I have gotten to know so many more of the teachers because they truly live out their motto of being "in partnership with parents". I am amazed each day at what my 3 year old comes home having learned. He is starting to write his letters, counting to 30, improving his social skills, and most importantly, he knows that Jesus loves him dearly. As a teacher myself, it is important to me that my kids get an education that focuses on the whole child, and that is apparent at Monarch. When searching for preschools, I visited and toured over 10 different schools. I found Monarch to be head and shoulders above the others. Some things that stood out to me were... there is a very clear curriculum and learning goals for each day (even for my 1 year old), not only is there daily communication about how my child is doing, but also a more formal meeting twice a year to discuss present levels and goals to help them continue learning in the areas specific to their needs, teachers are constantly learning through staff development opportunities, and teachers not only teach Christian values, but they live them out each day in their classrooms. I love being part of the Monarch family and my kids look forward to going to school each day!

He had someone from the upper campus named Barbara emailed me which is so unprofessional.

My students are high learners, high achievers and don't miss school straight A's. They know Spanish their givers their bright they listen they are wonderful children, but they did not get accepted. No, I'm not rich but education should be for all. It shouldn't be because you don't have millions of dollars that your child cannot be accepted. The school is a great I believe learning foundation for the children. Everyone seems to grow in prosper at the school and that's one of the reasons why I wanted my children to attend such a lovely prestigious school like Ciara, but I'm going to tell you if you are not rich, they will not accept your children. It's $150-175 application fee. If you wanna apply for financial aid is also extra $60 on top of that they will take your money but not accept you.
