This review pertains solely to a band competition in which my daughter's high school band…read moreparticipated at this school. This school is very nice, clean, and the school students and parents were extremely welcoming, friendly, and helpful. The event itself was well-organized, and each school band performed on the school's impressive football field. Thank you, San Clemente High School, for being such gracious hosts and sponsoring a very successful event.

Foggy clouds filled the air as our bus pulled into the school, while just moments ago there had…read morebeen sun pooling in from the windows. For once we felt that our uniforms were not enough protection to manage this cold environment. It was a kind of sign showing how this school would be, described as "nothing special" by many pro performers. This fog loomed over our efforts towards climbing the ranks towards first place. Although I expect us to be pronounced the most excellent of all of these bands during our awards ceremony, there were many aspects that we did not enjoy at all about this high school. "A lot of poles," describes just one element of this school's design which we found puzzling. Bathrooms were difficult to navigate to and with the bitter cold around us, we were left with more time shivering, wandering through halls hoping to find a glint of warm light around each corner. Next, the situation during our beautiful show which we have spent countless hours and, some would say years, perfecting. The field was slippery. It seemed as though we were ice skaters on a rink, but with a lack of our skates. The ice was melting and attempting to ruin the whole of our performance. Odd houses set on high dark hills in the dark seemed to always be watching us. We could all imagine the creepy faces of masked serial killers holding axes, staring out their windows plotting. Of course, as you can imagine, this added to our discomforts. Love, marching band performers (El Toro High-school)

We transferred to OLF from another local private school and it has been a breath of fresh air. The…read moresmall class sizes and family feel amongst the parents and staff is something we very much love. The biggest thing we notice at OLF is that the teachers are energized and not burned out like other schools. Our kids enjoy going to school here and love everything about it. It has made our transfer very seamless. The beautiful campus overlooking the ocean is a nice treat as well.

We couldn't be happier with our daughter's experience at this small private Catholic school. What…read moretruly sets it apart is the sense of community. Because of its size, every teacher genuinely knows each student--not just academically, but personally--and it's clear how deeply they care about each child's growth and well-being. The academic standards are excellent, and students are consistently challenged and supported. Beyond academics, there is a strong emphasis on moral character, faith, and being a kind, responsible citizen within the community. Those values are woven into everyday learning, not just taught as a separate lesson. The administrative staff greet every student by name each morning, creating a warm and welcoming environment that makes children feel seen and valued from the moment they walk through the door. Parent involvement is encouraged and truly appreciated, which further strengthens the school community. We feel grateful to be part of a school where education, faith, and character are so thoughtfully balanced. It has been a wonderful place for our daughter to learn, grow, and thrive.

The AP physics quiz was tragic. All of my hopes and dreams were crushed after losing a single point…read moreto a roller coaster problem. At long last, after 1 1/2 hours, I finally could eat some food. I arrived to the lunch line which resembled a sardine can, packed full with students pushing and shoving to get their hands on some scraps. On my way to the front of the lunch line, three students were pushed aside, and I watched as students climbed atop of the heads of other students, reaching for the number pad to enter their school ID for the day. At long last, after pushing and shoving, it was finally my turn to get food. All the good food was gone - if there was any to begin with. Then, I saw it. A cheese pizza! I thought, how could you possibly mess up a cheese pizza...? After grabbing my pizza, I pushed my way out of the circus fest that was the lunch line students still fighting for their lunch. The seating was limited, so I had to scavenge far and wide for a place to sit and enjoy my meager meal. I sat down outside, then took a bite. While I was chewing, I begin to think - was what I bit into even a pizza? Or did I miss and accidentally take a bite out of the carboard tray? I looked down and saw that I had indeed bitten into the dry, tragic, sauceless, atrocity of a pizza. The overcooked crust and the plastic cheese combined to make a taste resembling the Mattel packaging box for a Barbie doll, rather than a pizza. Devastated, I let tears fall from my eyes. How could a pizza be so impossibly horrid? How was it possible? Perhaps it just wasn't meant to be. 1 additional star for the pizza sticks tho... mmmmmmmm.

The play "Guys And Dolls" performed in December 2024 was excellent. The professionalism and talent…read morewas a credit to the performers and instructors. The city is lucky to have such a great school.

We've been here since third grade , both of my kids are having a good experience, Kapil the founder care so much he just added a program from tillys organization helping kids communicate and learn how to handle stress I was so impressed and I really appreciate it so much .

After writing a 2 star review on this school based on my true and honest experience, I get a very…read moredisturbing phone call from their director Kapil M. He wanted me take down my review. He accused me of bullying his school with my Yelp Review. I am just telling the truth. Please look at my previous reviews where I gave them 4 star. I had all the excitement and hopes at this school and was shattered after realizing the lies that were fed to us. Right now I am enrolled at our school district. My intention for coming her and our attraction for attending this school is because my son loves science!!! After seeing how he replied on my review, it is a lie that they hired staff. They state that they hired staff...Nope staff was not hired and that's the reason why they couldn't give me an exact start date. When they sent their psychologist to my transitional IEP meeting, their representative flatly told my IEP team at my district that they will not be able to provide services at the level they are providing. My IEP is also recorded and was disclosed before the meeting started. All members in that meeting is 100% aware that they are being recorded. When a public charter school makes promises that they will fulfill services like a public school district, and at a recorded IEP meeting they say they will not??? It really questions the accountability and the process for kids with IEP. Sounds like they cherry pick, which special kids they will have enrolled. Or maybe we are sounding like a business.... Because Mr.Kapil told me take my review down because it is ruining his school reputation. Sir, it's a public school and this is my experience with the admission process... Yes, they have all the field trips to make their school look great and all the extra activities. How about accountability? Teacher experience? Ask the how they deal or prevent with bullying? You will notice they tend to dodge the question. When I asked about the teachers, I am told that they had alot of applicants that applied so therefore they have teachers that want to teach and they highlight that they get county retirement and benefits. But they don't tell you the experiences of their teachers. They look really young, which is fun and great but I think having experienced teachers at a school is also very important. Bullying question... They answer by telling us they hired private investigators and no bullying was done. So how about the prevention? If you go to other review sites, you will see accusations of bullying in this school. Overall the idea presented at this school is amazing! STEM based. Lots of activities. Large member of the PTA, which alot of them are their own employees. ;) Alot of attraction to come to this school and that is why we applied. Go to your local school district. Ask the question of STEM and activities before jumping to come here. There are many charter schools to choose from here in South OC such as Journey, Community Roots, Oxford. How are they run? How are they accounted for financially? Money laundering is very common for people who run charter schools. Do your homework? See what best fits your family. Unfortunately this school wasn't a good fit. And sadly we had promises that were made but on the record during the transitional IEP meeting with the school district, it was very clear, they will not provide the services....

I have had my daughter in this school since November 2016... I'd like to say that the experience…read morehas been as good as it has been at our previous school in the Newhall School District. I'd like to say that, but I can't. This school is over-crowded, the valet is an absolute nightmare before and after school, the communication is incomplete (at best because I have also had communications that NEVER made it to my email), but yet I get numerous weekly automated calls from the district & principal that would be better communicated via email than a 3 minute spoken message. And I can't speak for every teacher, but my daughter's teacher last year had one foot in the retirement ring, which made for a less than pleasant year for both students & parents. I dread attending functions at this school because of the traffic and crowds, which is sad because we've always been so active at our children's school. Now that my twins are in kindergarten, I am seriously reconsidering ALL of my children's enrollment in this monster-sized school. WAY over-crowded, a bit too clique-y and too little space or parking.

The middle school side has teachers that are not even trying. They hate kids generally speaking…read more There is not enough eating area during lunch, so my kid often skips lunches because there is nowhere to eat. If you are not in a big group you don't get to seat at the table. All other areas like walls are taken over also. I bet teachers have plenty of room in their cozy lunch room. When kids need help teachers are not even willing to answer e-mails back. English teacher Mrs. Velez doesn't grade all the work, so grades are lower than they would if all the work would be graded. Teachers like Dubel and Amon are friends so they spend literally half of the time talking to each other, going to each other classrooms, leaving the kids alone playing computer games or do nothing. Some teachers simply don't explain material well. Do I need to say more? It's endless.
