I have some of my fondest memories from this school. Cloverly is an elementary school for 4th-6th grade. It is one of the 3 elementary schools for the Temple City School District for this age level. It has been a California Distinguished School long before I had attended in 1997. Cloverly has excellent teachers and I can still remember some of my fondest childhood memories at this school. I can still remember my homeroom teachers' names - Mrs. Jarvis, Ms. Felsinger, and Mr. Lee - all wonderful teachers.

Since my husband and I are both working parents, we were looking for a school closer to my office…read more Through my research and recommendations from friends, we chose Pearl Preparatory initially because: 1) Affordability 2) Close proximity to my work 3) Before and after school care (Dolphin Club) 4) Small class sizes 5) K-5th grade In hindsight, I am very happy that we were able to be a part of the school for 6 years. The principal and staff were fantastic. Both of my kids went to Pearl from 2007-2013 and this school fit our needs academically and through extracurricular activities. We probably would have completed the entire program with my second child had we not moved to the Inland Empire. Kindergarten was a great transition for my kids from pre-school. Mrs. Fullerton is the best, she still teaches kids to read based on the fundamentals (phonics based). Our kids enjoyed her program tremendously. We have fond memories from scrapbooks that she made to capture all of the fun things they do at school. The reason I single her out is because I think she has the hardest job, most of these kids (age 4 or 5) have never been in a school setting. They do not know the classroom rules or even where the restroom or principal's office is located. Mrs. Fullerton is very patient and understands getting them prepared for school begins with those basic things. It seems small, but critical and important from the beginning. Other teachers, Mrs. Johnson, Ms. Prest, Mr. Chang, and Mrs. Bolinger want nothing more than your child to succeed. These teachers use various learning methods (visual, auditory, reading/writing and kinesthetic). Examples: Memorizing presidents through song, projects, spelling bees, reading and accelerated math programs in the summer, etc. I even learned that some children, if accelerated in certain subjects, could move onto higher math and reading levels, Pearl was able to facilitate to help them to learn beyond their grade level. In my opinion, this is forward thinking and meeting the needs of gifted children. These customized things about Pearl show they really care about the needs of the child. My kids have maintained A's throughout elementary and continue to do so in Jr. High and High School because of the strong foundation created by Pearl teachers. Remember this is our journey, every parent has to do their portion and just because you pay for private school tuition that doesn't guarantee that your child will succeed. Having a child at Pearl is a blessing because it fulfills the needs for the child and is very forgiving to a working parent. Not every school is right for every student. The purpose of raising children is to participate and help them along so that they are prepared for their future, a teacher can't do it all. Teachers can only do so much and as a parent you have to reinforce their teachings, study habits and organization. I have read other reviews and honestly, no school is perfect, but Pearl does an amazing job at incorporating hands on learning through the classroom and practical application through their many field trips each year. One of the trips that children enjoy is science camp. In 4th and 5th grade, they are able to spend a couple of nights learning about science and gaining the independence to be away from home. Lastly, within Pearl is their music and theatre program, they are teaching our kids not just the basics of Math and Science, but incorporating fine arts. Not a lot of schools still focus on this and it is a complete shame. Pearl has done a yearly Christmas program and Spring Music Festival. Pearl does it all with their talented band, music and theatre teachers. My kids loved being in the school play; acting and singing and performing in front of all of the families. Thank you Pearl Preparatory!

I love this school. My daughter is special needs and started here in kindergarten December 2021…read moreafter realizing that she could not cope with regular kids at a private school with limited resources. Her first day was rough because of the new environment, but after that, she loved this school. She gained confidence, her speech and vocabulary skyrocketed and her social skills improved tremendously. I'm so proud of her and am very grateful for the thoughtful and loving care all the teachers and staff show all the students. From the office manager, Luz, to the lunch team, to the nurse...everyone shows such empathy and care to all the kids. The principal, Erin Fish, is amazing! She really gets it! She very much understands and empathizes with all families who have special needs children and the challenges we face. She is a champion for all the students, whether in special ed or not. I applaud this school for being so exemplary in the way they have shaped the culture of the school and how they support all the students to strive to do their best and to learn from their mistakes and failures. This school is a hidden gem. Any child would be lucky to be here.

They are responsible, professional, and instrumental in the kids' learning progress. They have regular after school programs, summer/winter camps and all the holiday camps with breakfast, lunch and snack provided, which is a huge help for busy parents. They pick up students from Arcadia, Temple City, El Monte, Alhambra, Rosemead, San Gabriel, etc. So the teachers have great resources of what their learning objectives are. The school is at great location and has very big parking lot, which I personally prefer a lot. And they have very clean and well-organized classrooms. Highly recommended!!! 我儿子很喜欢Connected Academy。Mr. Kendrick和所有老师都特别棒，很专业很负责。孩子能进步这么大，真的很感谢他们。 学校有课后班、夏令营冬令营、还有各种节假日的托管，关键是管早饭、午饭和点心！对家长来说太省心省力了。 他们从亚凯迪亚、天普市、艾尔蒙地、阿汉布拉、柔似蜜、圣盖博好多学区接送学生。老师的教学资源非常丰富。 学校位置很好，而且停车场超大----这点我个人很喜欢！每个教室都很干净，而且都是老师们精心布置的，让孩子在这里很放心。 强烈推荐！
