Went here Class of 2018. Overall, the school itself in terms of facilities aren't too bad in my…read moreopinion. I happened to be someone into the arts at the time (still am). I have been in many art classes at the school such as, Ceramics, Drawing and Painting, also AP Art. I also have participated in Drama Club and happened to be the club president in my senior year. I am someone who was into music as well. However, in terms of choir classes...I've noticed during my time at the school, many students in the choir are pretty pretentious I felt. Which in turn, caused me not to join. With how the school is structure-wise, I'm not really mad at it. It's more so the actual students I've come across and how the faculty deal with issues particularly regarding mental health. I wasn't really a "popular" kid, but wasn't that much of an outcast either. I was somewhere in between. When it came to the people I was hanging out with on a daily basis, we were doing things that normally people do in high school. Chill, hang out, and joke around. If I'm being honest, in high school, I was someone who had mental issues especially with suicidal ideations. Due to issues I had outside of high school at the time. Thankfully I'm not there mentally anymore. However, I didn't really have much support outside of my friends at the time. It felt hard to talk to somebody, but one day I brought it up to my counselor... Well after I did, it made things a lot worse. Essentially it separated me from my family, and I felt alienated from the students when I told them the issues I had at the time. A particular friend I had who I considered to be my best friend, I confided in her and I was basically shamed for it. The next day, she never spoke to me again after that. I had another friend, who actually was trying to get to the bottom root of the issue and I dismissed her which I still feel bad for. There was another person who I thought was a friend, but actually secretly did not like me. She was someone known to start drama. After these events happened, I was alienated from my main circle and others. Felt embarrassed during graduation day and overall I have mainly known people who are really deep down fake. Well, it's expected from a place like California. I was happy to leave considering I didn't have to see or talk to most of the people I knew there ever again. However, it feels bittersweet because while I don't want anything to do with this school or the memories associated...it feels tough to know that looking back I didn't have a good experience. Doesn't mean the school itself is horrible, it's the social life that came with it and how I was treated that did not feel good.

Coolidge Elementary is a great elementary school in the San Gabriel School District. The parents…read moreare heavily involved in helping their children. This includes PTA meetings, fundraisers, programs that raise money for the school and overall participation in the activities of their children. I went to this school back in the day for my elementary days. A lot has changed as the classes have become more modernized and more up to date. The school has a large multipurpose field, two playgrounds, black top area, computer lab, library, basketball courts, outdoor seating and a cafeteria. There is also a separate day care center for day care as well as after school care. The teachers I had all retired from this school but they were monumental for my middle school and high school endeavors. In order to go to this school you must live in a certain radius. You can petition to go to this school if you're not in the radius. There is a drop off area to drop your kids off in front of the cafeteria but it does get busy when it is near school time. There is a crossing guard that is always looking out for children and parents so you don't have to worry about getting run over by the busy Mission Road/ Roses Road intersection. Coolidge is a CA distinguished school with high test scores year round. If you want a great elementary school and want to keep life long friends, this is the school to go to.

You know, teachers that actually taught you words in 1st grade, like "Responsibility" and how to apply them. Teachers that would become your best friend later in life, and I quote "As close as it gets to being a son". Teachers that were role models, inspirations, and best friends... And on that note, RIP Pat Roldan... I think the only complaint I could possibly have about this school is... it's too close to the wash. The balls would always fly in there if we weren't careful with our aim and strength.

But, for the past 5 months I've brought this up multiple times to the teachers and tutors and my child still has been failing 4 out of 6 classes. They don't check homeworks and when they do, it's still wrong. When brought to their attention, the blame is put on the child instead and do not own up to the inefficiencies and deficiencies in their system and their staff. If you want an after school pick up baby sitter for 3 hours, this is the place for you and kids. However, if you're looking for an after school enrichment program for your kids, please look elsewhere. If you're still considering this place, ask for a sit in and see for yourself what kind of place this is.

Both of my daughters, M and C, started their journey with Data in 1st grade and continued through 8th grade, benefiting from both their exceptional after-school program and their enriching summer camp. Looking back, I can confidently say that Data for Children laid a strong foundation that has contributed immensely to the remarkable young women they are today. As working parents, the convenience offered by Data was invaluable. Each school day, their dedicated team would pick up my daughters from school and transport them safely to the facility. Upon arrival, 90 min is dedicated to homework, with teachers and staff meticulously checking assignments and providing support. This ensured that academic responsibilities were handled efficiently, leaving evenings free for family time. After homework, the focus shifted to Data's robust math and English programs, wrapping up the day at 6 PM, with convenient parent pick-up until 6:30 PM. What truly set Data apart was their proactive approach to student safety and communication. If a child was absent or had other commitment, a phone call was all it took. More impressively, if I ever forgot to notify them (which, I admit, I did on occasion!), Data's staff would ensure the driver waited for a set time at the pick-up line. If my child didn't appear, they would promptly call me to confirm their whereabouts. This vigilance provided immense peace of mind, knowing my children were always accounted for. Data for Children truly embodies academic excellence. Their commitment to giving students an advantage is evident, particularly in their summer camp program. During the summer months, students begin training on the upcoming school year's subject levels. This forward-thinking approach provides an invaluable preview, making new material feel less foreign and boosting confidence when school resumes. However, Data's summer program is far from all work and no play. It kicks off with a fantastic "Fun Week," where students enjoy local, educational day trips - entirely play-focused, a perfect start to summer. After this, the full-day summer camp truly diversifies the learning experience. Beyond the core math and English, my daughters explored foreign languages, engaged in hands-on science experiments, expressed creativity through arts and crafts, learned practical financial literacy, honed critical thinking, practiced public speaking, and even delved into food science. This broad curriculum fosters well-rounded individuals, cultivating creativity, social-emotional skills, independence, and self-sufficiency. From early morning drop-offs to a meticulously planned daily schedule, their summer program truly is a well-oiled machine. I'm incredibly thankful I discovered Data when seeking an academic-driven, reputable, and trustworthy after-school program for my eldest. She has since graduated high school as an Eagle Scout, a member of the National Honor Society, most valued Chief Editor of her school paper, a Tournament of Roses Ambassador, and a Women of Impact Award Honoree, among numerous other citywide recognitions. I truly believe Data played a significant role in shaping the remarkable person she is today. Data for Children is a family-run business, and they extend that family warmth to every child and parent. The leadership team are not just personable and welcoming, they are exceptional listeners. Their open-door policy truly means you can drop in for a chat about any concerns or suggestions. I've offered a couple of suggestions over the years, and I was always impressed by how seriously they considered and often implemented feedback. This dedication to continuous improvement, from program enhancements to facility safety, truly sets them apart. I highly recommend Data for Children to any parent seeking an after-school and summer program that prioritizes academic growth, holistic development, safety, and a genuine sense of community. They are simply outstanding.
