SCVi saved my son's school career. This is a truly remarkable place, where the instructors WANT to…read morebe there and the kids come first - not faculty. Students and their families are treated with respect and kindness and, above all, with trust. Such a refreshing, reaffirming environment that allows young people to develop and thrive - not crush their natural curiosity and imagination with relentless messages on conformity. And, amazingly, this public charter school with an incredible curriculum is free! Transferring from a nightmare experience in 7th grade at Rio Norte - where everything is structured to the teacher's benefit, the volume of 'busy work' worksheets assigned daily is mind-numbing, and the default attitude is one of distrust - to the amazing project-based learning and integrated curriculum of SCVi was truly the answer to my prayers for my thoughtful, intelligent son. He had left elementary school as a confident, straight A student who benefited from the school's GATE program for 3 years, but after 1 year at Rio Norte Jr High, being brow-beaten and told by his teachers he was just lazy and not as smart as he thought, his spirit was crushed and he had become hopeless about school. SCVi turned all that around. The transition was a little rocky for him, as he was leaving his friends behind, but the staff and fellow students at SCVi worked hard at making him feel welcome and his contributions were once again valued. By the end of 8th grade, his confidence had returned, as well as his grades, and he'd even stepped into a leadership role in the epic Civil War Re-Enactment capstone project that is a tradition at SCVi. Without SCVi, the path for my gifted 13 year old son could have turned out very badly indeed. He's continued to develop and thrive there through high school, benefited from IB classes and theater, and will graduate next month as a poised, confident young man with broad knowledge and critical life skills. What parent could ask for more for their child? From the bottom of my heart, thank you SCVi!

Horrible school if you want to learn and socialize. Most people already have friend groups, and…read moredon't socialize with new students. Also, the school has a major bullying problem that they have covered up for a while now and only did the bare minimum if pushed to do. If you are not in the main popular friend group, you most likely cant talk to anyone. You'll also most likely be bullied if you don't like whatever the popular kids like, and people always beat each other up, and they do the most minimal punishments. I heard someone who caused a ton of people to bully someone else only got 1 day of ISS for doing that. So yea, i totally recommend not going here

The teachers are masters in their craft, never failing to properly educate every student that passes through. As a current Riverhawk, I can proudly say that Rio Norte is the place to be!

If you're looking for a place that cares about both a Christ-centered and academically rigorous…read moreeducation, there is no other place in Santa Clarita, or nearby areas, like Trinity that balances both as well as they do! We've been here for more than 7 years and have seen both the highs and lows of being a private school community like this. Even when challenges arise, the best thing I can say is that they actually care and try to respond in such a way that they remain committed to Christ (first and foremost) and also do the best they can to care for their students. Even if we don't always (personally) love or agree with every decision that has been made, I know it's always been done with much thought, care, and prayer in order to stay committed to the school's mission and vision--not bending to just one person's (or family's) thoughts or feelings about things. This, I'm sure, has been hard at times, but I'm grateful the school has stayed faithful in this regard over the years and even through many challenging situations! We are grateful for the unique place Trinity holds in the Santa Clarita Valley for our family!

The Theater was large, comfy seats too! Great sound and every seat had a clear view of the stage- First Class! The musical event: "The Beatles at 60" was a fantastic musical tribute blues, jazz, big band... and such great performances by students and professionals too. We loved the vocals of Steve Lively. The trumpets, trombones, saxophones an rhythm section blew the roof off with solos and skillful arrangement of the Beatles songs we love! price $100... no actually just $10.

I can only speak about the football stadium, as I didn't see the rest of the campus. Apparently,…read morethis is a large high school, judging by the sprawl of facilities. The way that Google Maps directed us, we came around the perimeter of the sports facilities, not knowing where the parking for the stadium would be, but following the light standards until we found it. The parking lot in that area is large, with solar carport-type covers. Given how hot and sunny it gets there, this is a great idea. It was 100 degrees at 4:00 for game time. In an interesting arrangement, West Ranch High School's Wildcats use the stadium as their "home" venue, as their own field doesn't have light stanchions. Wish we'd realized that before driving to West Ranch first. By the time we got over to Valencia High, I was feeling frazzled about missing the start of the game. The parent boosters selling / taking tickets were very friendly and gracious. As we made our way to the visitors side we passed the snack bar. Though the game was underway, they weren't ready to sell anything. Even a frozen lemonade wasn't happening. Later, at halftime, dear hubby went over and scored $5 cheeseburgers for us that weren't half bad. The venue has a gorgeous setting, up on a rise so that the view beyond is of the mountains separating the Santa Clarita Valley from the San Fernando Valley. There was a suggestion of a vista of Mt. Diablo in Contra Costa County up north that had me nostalgic for my original hometown. I'd say the visitors side has the best view, actually.

Oak Hills Elementary is an amazing school academically wise, can be somewhat better, but one thing…read morethat caught my eye is the school staff. My children always come home informing me that the safety supervisors can definitely be nicer. To demonstrate what I'm trying to say, my daughter complains to me that this one particular staff member who works during recess and lunch yells a lot at children and can say unnecessary things. Along with taking away specific privileges, which for an elementary school doesn't make sense if you barley did anything wrong. Mrs KK I think that's the name. I don't mean to be disrespectful, but the staff can be really disappointing, and should definitely improve.
