Van Avery was a lot like our extended family; as a working mother it was very important for me to have my children somewhere where I knew they were cared for and somewhere that understood our needs as a family. My children excelled in High School academically and socially because of the strong base they developed while at Van Avery, they were both challenged and encouraged. They developed confidence in speaking in front of people ( lots of practice) and they develop the skills to communicate effectively, essentially they became equipped to enter High School and take advantage of all it has to offer. My children have all graduated from college now and I do give credit in part to Van Avery for their accomplishments. My children and I built long life friendships with our Van Avery contemporaries and continue to share our lives with them. Enrolling my children at Van Avery Prep was hands down the best decision I made regarding my children's education.

It has been a pleasure to help support my granddaughter's attendance at Linfield Christina School and celebrate her senior year activities as I look forward to her graduation.

Don't send your child here, especially if they're a girl or any other race other than white. I went…read morehere for my entire life and while a lot of the teachers were nice, it wasn't enough to overshadow the sexism and racism. Not every teacher had the same views, but at the same time we would have substitute teachers spend an entire class period talking about how women's role is to be at home and listen to their husband, or them unfairly calling security on kids who weren't doing anything just because of their race. Almost every kid who was any other race other than white would have stories of a teacher being micro aggressive, blatantly racist, or ignorant. A lot of the students were similar. Bullying was rampant here and no teachers stepped in to truly fix the problem, with some even joining in on it. Some of the boys especially would spend class making crude jokes right in the girls ears about them, and teachers wouldn't do anything about it. They preached about how you could come to teachers for help and that teachers cared about you, but rarely did I see that actually in practice. Even at the mountain retreat that they forced everyone to go to for chapel 24/7 and 'community,' my friend and I were put in a side room and yelled at for sobbing until another teacher came to help us. Some of the teachers also seemed to prefer their male students over the others, getting the girls in trouble for something that the boys were doing. All of that aside, the science and math teaching was also subpar. I barely learned anything in math and had around 5 math teachers within one year. I had to get a tutor and teach myself everything again in college, starting from the basics. The foreign language and English classes were fine, but that was also a subject I didn't necessarily struggle in. The teachers in elementary were fine, but with the higher level teaching and management that comes with middle and high school they struggled immensely. The teachers weren't remotely paid enough to deal with I don't think this school is worth it if you care about your kids math and science education and don't want your kids to be brainwashed.

Who knew applying to preschool and elementary gives the same pressure and stress as finding a…read morecollege? I'm not saying we are a Rancho Christian lifer, but I will say our experience in both the preschool and elementary school have been positive. After researching, talking to parents, and finally touring a couple of the Temecula schools, we enjoyed the fact that Rancho provided an environment that felt safe, enrichment classes that we felt were important (such as the arts), and also included a space for our kids to grow academically and spiritually. *PRESCHOOL REVIEW* We initially toured the preschool, since my daughter was not yet potty trained (and in order for her to proceed in her age level preschool, she would need to be fully potty trained). This wasn't entirely alarming since most preschools in the area have a "mandatory" deadline, which honestly can be stressful on parents. Both my kids "eased" into it; I've always believed that potty training should be a gentle transition and encouraged, not pushed. What set Rancho apart was the partnership that the admission team provided with us, recommending she start in the summer enrolled in the "Little Tots" program, which would provide her in a 3 month setting that eased her into the routine. Ms. Annalise was an amazing summer school teacher. She was in tune with what our daughter needed (especially since she was switching childcare). During the fall, she switched to Ms. Faith - another amazing teacher who also provided a safe potty environment. Soon enough, she was transitioned over to her grade level class with Ms. Jem and Ms. Shilpi. Three smooth transitions over the course of a year speaks volumes of the staff. She loved all of her teachers, and the app that the school uses - Brightwheel, provided a snapshot of their potty, eating and pix/videos for the day. The only thing I wish is that preschool and elementary somehow used the same platform to streamline communication and forms. Apps I had to download for the school are: -Blackbaud: for all application school forms, tuition/billing schedules, etc -Brightwheel: preschool only app for updates/communication -Band: Elementary school app for updates and communication Pros and Cons: Pros: -Rancho is an excellent communicator via Brightwheel/IG/FB/Email. It's easy to get a hold of someone via phone/Brightwheel, they are responsive which is important as a parent! -After a certain time in the morning, the entrance on the side of the school (closest to the preschool is closed), you will need to go to the front of the school and pass the guard check-in gate. I personally love this since there are measures in place to check any guest that comes in after a certain time. -Each parent/guardian is provided with a check in code. This is used to sign in and out of preschool at the front office. -Great school events and staff -Love that our daughter gets to see her brother (who attends elementary) at some of the school events! -Chapel: our daughter looks forward to chapel Wednesdays. Every preschooler has a blue chapel shirt; the service is age appropriate, while providing them with a spiritual baseline. Cons: -The exit gate isn't always closely monitored. There typically is staff around the area to keep an eye on anyone exiting (along with any kids trying to get out), but this could be better. -Summer school logistics was a little chaotic. And this comes from being a first time Rancho parent. We were unsure of where to go for early drop-off or late pickup. -Preschool feels siloed, I wish there was more cohesion between Preschool, Elementary and High School. Overall, we love the fact that our daughter has had a good experience with both the staff and her classmates. We feel that our voices are heard if there is ever an issue, and that for the most part administration is also visible and pleasant to communicate with! Will post our experience with elementary soon!
