My son had been very kind and helpful through out the school year until there was this horrible…read moresupervisor named Mrs. Lindsay and she was new to the school so she had got him in trouble twice for no reason. She said that he got in trouble the first time for asking for a ball back even though she denied to give it and he didn't say anything wrong but he got in trouble because she thought it was a good idea to get him in trouble and just say that he hit her. Then the second time my son had been screamed at TWICE and they were saying to take a seat because he was looking for a clean table. They then told him to sit down at a table full of trays and trash all over. They never cleaned his table so he asked for a new table and that lady said no so he asked another supervisor that was way more kind and so they moved. The first supervisor said that they weren't supposed to move even though they got permission and him and his friends got in trouble twice for no reason. And his teacher Mrs. Tanaka was really horrible because he didn't even want to go to school anymore because of the way she acted to him so she would always scream at him and he would never like it. These two shouldn't even be on this campus because of the way they both act but this school doesn't even care at all about what happens.

A teacher named Manuel grabbed a little girl by the arm, yelled at her, and snatched something from her hand, then threw it across the floor. All the children nearby looked scared and shaken. This behavior is completely unacceptable, especially from someone entrusted with the care of young children. No child should ever be treated like that in a school environment. I am sharing this because I believe in protecting all children and ensuring schools are a safe and nurturing place to learn. I hope the administration takes this seriously and investigates. Parents: Please pay attention. Teachers should be role models, not bullies.

I stand by my review because I was truly concerned about the way he yelled and grabbed that child along with my other findings.

We wanted our children to be in a safe, loving and nurturing environment. And this exceeded all of our expectations!!!! The director, Miss Lety, is a kind and loving woman. She became like family for our family. She truly loves all of her students and their families. Academics for us was secondary, but luckily the academics are great! Now that my son has finished kinder we need to find a new school and we are also moving to Orange County. The schools we have applied to in OC have asked us to get our children assessed to see where they are at academically and BOTH of them are A YEAR AHEAD! They learned so much a Children's Academy of Success but they were still allowed to be children and not forced to be little learning robots. I guess they learned having fun! My son had Miss Bianca and Miss Sinttia and LOVED them My daughter has had Miss Alma, who is an angel on Earth. Don't hesitate to enroll your kids here.

I was very concerned by what I observed during recess. I was a bystander sitting in my car eating…read morewhen I overheard a staff member repeatedly yelling at the children to be quiet. The tone felt unnecessarily harsh. I understand that supervising many kids at once can be challenging--I have six years of experience working in children's ministry--but there are respectful and effective ways to communicate with kids without raising your voice excessively. Children deserve patience, guidance, and a calm environment where they feel safe and supported, especially during unstructured times like recess. Hearing that level of yelling was upsetting and made me question the approach being used. Because of this experience, I would not feel comfortable recommending this school at this time. I encourage parents to observe and ask questions to ensure the environment aligns with how they want their children to be treated and supported. Poor children , do they really need a loud speakerphone to speak to children? I mean their ears are not even developed like ours. My voice would be enough. Whoever was yelling was also using one of those things that coaches use. I'm not sure what it's called. I will be speaking to Dr.kacou since I called the office wanting to speak to her hopefully this matter is resolved
