    This school has mean teacher assistants. They will treat us parents like garbage and always fast to brush us off.

It's great that it includes both middle and high school with a relatively small number of students, so everyone knows each other. There is no bullying, and there is a real sense of safety and responsibility. The teaching staff is excellent, and parents are actively involved in the life of the school and support its events and activities. I truly hope that Mr. Rosenthal remains the principal and that the school continues to thrive.

The program is highly rigorous and challenging (all students in the program are studying at highly advanced levels for science and math). The homework load can be overwhelming at times but there is a terrific support network to ensure that students stay on track. Our son has made great friends and loves his teachers. The academics are top notch. For the second consecutive year, The Science Academy was the number one school in the state of California with the highest scores among grades 6 through 8 in English, math and the English and math combination. For kids who love math and science and are up for the challenge, this is one of the best school options in LA.

In any case, it's pretty unsettling, especially from a K-8 school. This isn't boilerplate language -- many of the bullet points feel disturbingly specific. Wesley made headlines a few years ago when they arranged for their staff to cut the line and get Covid vaccines in 2021 before they were eligible.

Yesterday, my husband and I were lucky enough to attend their prospective parent open house and to say I was impressed would be an understatement. The morning began by having us sit in on their twice weekly school assembly (called "Community"). It hit to the heart of what it means to be in a community! It was inspiring. Completely led by the students themselves, yesterday's assembly was entirely run by the second graders! What a joy! It really set the stage for what proved to be a very enjoyable morning. Everyone we met made us feel instantly at home...the staff, the parents, the security team who helped us find a parking spot and especially the two 6th graders who gave my husband and I our own special "VIP" tour! Their engagement and passion for sharing their experiences truly warmed our hearts. We appreciated hearing from so many staff members who are clearly committed to providing the most nurturing educational experience for the students. We know the students at Wesley are in very capable hands.

    We honestly couldn't be happier with our experience at Laurel Hall. This school is truly a gem…read more Valley families, don't sleep on it! The community here is warm, welcoming, and tight-knit. You feel it the minute you walk on campus. The principal sets such a positive tone, and it trickles down through every part of the school. Teachers and staff know every child by name, and that kind of connection really sets Laurel Hall apart. Class sizes are small, which means our child gets personalized attention and are really seen not just another face in the crowd. It offers that classic, traditional school experience you might expect in a small town, but it's right here in the heart of the Valley. Yes, it's a private school and tuition isn't nothing- but compared to others in LA, it's very reasonable for what you get. We also weren't sure how we'd feel about the church affiliation going in, but honestly, it's light and sweet. Think Christmas songs and mostly the focus on kindness and compassion (with a little Jesus sprinkled in). Nothing heavy-handed at all. We feel so lucky to have found Laurel Hall. Our kids are thriving, and we genuinely love being part of this school community.

I suspected…read morethe principal would do such a thing seeing as he wrote fake positive reviews. through a friend I learned that the school is shutting down thankfully. Mrs. Allagh should have been the first teacher to go and maybe this school would be running longer. The worst "teacher" (not sure if she's even qualified highly doubt it) and human I have had the displeasure of being around. I cannot fathom how she got hired. Truly an awful person not just to the kids but parents as well! This school deserves what's coming to it and I do not feel bad for the teachers or principal. I never interacted with other staff but they seemed bearable. If you enroll your child in a school and see "Mrs. Allagh" as their teacher RUN and find another school. Any place willing to hire someone like that is not a place you want to be involved in. I changed my child's school 3 months ago and is flying through the roof. Doing so much better! Best decision I have ever made. I hope their staff sees this since they never felt the need to contact me back after multiple attempts of me trying to reach out to them. I don't want to categorize all the staff into the few negligent and disgusting ones I have witnessed within the school so I will leave it at that. AVOID THE PRINCIPAL AND MRS. ALLAGH AT ALL COSTS!

    This school is a masterclass in how not to run an educational institution. The schedules are a…read morecomplete mess--classes overlap, students are shuffled around like afterthoughts, and no one seems to know where they're supposed to be or when. Organization clearly isn't a priority here. The leadership is even worse. The principal appears totally disconnected from students and staff, showing zero interest in whether anyone is actually learning or even comfortable. Rumors of bizarre behavior aside, the overall vibe is wildly unprofessional. When students feel more confused, stressed, and ignored after interacting with administration, that's a massive failure of leadership. The environment is unpleasant, morale is low, and basic standards of professionalism seem optional. Instead of focusing on student success, the administration seems wrapped up in its own strange priorities. It's hard to learn in a place where students don't feel respected or taken seriously. If you care about education, structure, or basic competence, I'd strongly recommend looking literally anywhere else.

But the community of teachers, who are all very qualified professionals, deserve the highest praises. The IHP program rocks. However, there has been some increase in the number of reported "almost incidents" outside the school. These "almost incidents" imply some safety concerns - e.g. almost had a child interact with a suspicious character, almost had a suspicious person pick-up a child...almost this, almost that. Lately, it seems to happen once a week. Which is why the police presence in the area helps a lot. Everywhere you go, there will always be suspicious and crazy people. Maybe the school lets parents know about "everything" for transparency and out of an abundance of caution. I still love this school and would recommend it to everyone. Reed produces responsible students. Great school, awesome parent/ teacher community. Go Wolves!

    The teachers here are wonderful and truly seem to care about the children. Unfortunately, my…read moreexperience with the office staff and administration was very disappointing. It often felt like the teachers had little say and were expected to simply follow direction from the office, even when concerns were raised. What concerned me most was the lack of communication surrounding emergency situations. There was little to no follow-up with parents, and it felt like the school tried to minimize or quietly move past serious incidents instead of being transparent. Because of those experiences, I personally would not feel comfortable bringing my child back here.

But as a Black family, our list was more layered with the awakening that the world witnessed. The pandemic added additional complexity to our anxiety, but Oakwood has been a dream come true for our family in alleviating all worries we had. The community of families is kind and down-to-earth. The teachers are responsive and committed. This school is well-run and culturally in tune, and everyone goes above and beyond. My son needed to be picked up one day early from school and was unhappy about leaving friends mid-morning. That evening, I got a call from his teacher offering to come to our house (pretty far away) to bring him his items to ensure he was okay (Completely Unnecessary, but the offer meant the world and demonstrated how much she cared.) Honestly, the only complaint is that our son wants to stay at school way too long and has asked us to "fall back." This week, the only tears were when we picked him up ON TIME instead of allowing him to go to after-care! His maturity and growth spurt are selfishly bittersweet, but I am proud to have a front-row seat in watching his love of learning cemented on these grounds. It is a magical, empowering place that has already been the fabric of countless unforgettable memories.
