We have been treated like family over the years - our children feel safe and known by their teachers and any questions or requests to the administration or teachers have been promptly and thoughtfully addressed. Our oldest child and middle school graduate, who now attends public high school, feels like she was well prepared academically and personally by teachers who challenged her to think critically and by expectations to be kind and respectful. There is obviously no perfect school and we are grateful to have found a school that aligns with our values!

I would highly recommend RHCDS to any parent in the South Bay…read more The admin and teachers are dedicated and passionate about their students and their roles as educators. They instill the importance of independence and accountability at an early age. I have three very different students attending RHCDS and each one is thriving in their own way - a true testament to the school. The teachers are approachable and accessible and operate with a purpose to inspire and push students while also maintaining a fun and warm atmosphere. My children feel respected, comfortable and confident in the classroom which is a culture that cultivates growth across all facets of the child's development.

We are truly blessed to have found such a safe, loving environment for our children. The campus is beautiful and the equipment is new. Kids can really be just kids. They run around and play. We love watching our kids actually moving their bodies and working out. They plead to go to afterschool camp every day. The class sizes are amazing. There are assistant teachers in each classroom. If a student needs more assistance they can easily get it, instead of struggling alone. Dr. Chun is an amazing Principal and runs the school like a well oiled machine. The character values they instill Caring Attitude Respect Gratitude Perseverance Self Control are amazing. I wish they had a high school too.

This school is probably best for people who have artistic children (think of theater or drama kids)…read moreor kids who have special needs (developmental impediments which require them to need an aide physically with them or need smaller group sizes). This school does not focus on academic rigor. There is no homework or grades until 4th grade. The amount of regression in education we witnessed was sad, anger inducing, and extremely upsetting. We wasted a year of tuition and our child's time and would NEVER recommend this school for children who are not special needs or have other socialization issues.

The office lady's would say that the next school district would see how much of a "horrible' parent i am when in reality I'm a great parent. This school needs true meaningful understanding staff and leadership. As a single parent they looked down to me a lot and my kids. Yet we are doing great since we left that discriminating school. Everyone else was friendly besides certain people including a teacher. This was back in 2022 yet my kids describe this place as being in a school they didn't like as much for the first time ever. Coming from LUSD to PLUSD expecting it to be better then LUSD was definitely shocking. so far Long Beach USD and Lynwood USD is by far the best experience. We cant wait to purchase in Santa Clarita.

Blessed to Have Found This School Family!…read more Although we've only been at the school since November, it feels like we've found a second home. Transitioning from Peninsula Montessori can be a big change for a little one, but the staff--especially my daughter's phenomenal PreK teacher, Mrs. Patti--made it seamless and positive. What stands out is the school's genuine dedication to each student and family. Their mission to foster a love of learning and compassion for others, centered in faith, is evident everywhere. Academically, we have seen our daughter thrive and progress by leaps and bounds in this nurturing environment. The leadership is inspiring; it's an all-woman admin team, and the principal makes a point to connect personally, looking every child in the eye during morning greetings. We are profoundly grateful and blessed to have found a community we trust wholeheartedly with our child.

First, we were impressed by the responsiveness of the staff and the clear focus on academics. While we moved to Palos Verdes for the schools, of which I am an alum, we have been so much happier at SJF. We found that the teachers are truly devoted to their students, and they pay attention to whole child development. Teachers go above and beyond responding to parents' concerns. Not only does the school foster intellectual development, but they also have community service requirements as well as service to each other and various athletic programs. And check out those drama productions - they are entertaining even if you do not have a child participating! Both of my daughters have been at their happiest at SJF. They both have smaller classes where everyone is a friend. I love coming to volunteer and seeing all of the grades interacting, and all students helping each other out. My oldest has even developed such an affinity for Mass that she goes during the week in the summer. It is a special place.
