It's such a friendly environment here and it truly feels like a family here. The office Manager Edie, is so friendly and informative and is always so helpful. I'm sad I didn't know about this school sooner to have started my daughter here in TK. I did for my middle son and he is now here too, in TK. There are service hours and fundraising required, like all private, Catholic schools. The best part about this school is that the fundraising is "per family." For example, the fundraising at St. Chris doesn't change in amount if you have one child or three. It's also less than some surrounding schools. Other surrounding schools I checked prior to choosing St. Christopher have their set amount "per child." Most were $1,000 so if you have three kids, you have to fundraise $3,000 per school year. At St. Chris, the fundraising is $700 and whether you have one child, two, or more...it stays the same. The service hours are 40 per school year and there are so many opportunities to get them done, or you can pay them up front if you do not have time for this. If you're from a single parent home the hours are less than 40. The school has morning and after school program for those parents that work early or late. They offer a per session or a monthly option. They have a carline for parents who find it convenient to drop off their kids, or you have the option to also walk them to class. The afternoon pickup is carline where the kids hop into the car and the little ones, TK and kinder get picked up at the gate. They have events like father daughter dance, field trips, family picnics, jog a thon, family bbq, movie night, Halloween haunted house, Halloween trunk or treat, fiesta, Christmas performances with dinner, and other awesome get togethers that make the school even closer. The TK and kinder class have "buddies" from 7th and 8th grade which they love. They sit with them during mass on Wednesdays and they also do little gift exchanges during Christmas and form great relationships with the bigger kids. They have music class with Mr. George who the kids absolutely love! He is also so good with the kids and teaches them all the great songs for their performances. He runs the choir so your child will get to know him if they're in choir. Recently there was a change and two grades got integrated into one class. It was a bit scary to think of this but like many schools that have thrived doing this, the kids here are thriving and because of smaller class sizes the kids are doing great! Many parents were worried and left, and that's understandable. For us that stayed, we are realizing that it has no negative effect on their school performance and in fact, there is more time available for extra instruction. Our principal also formed a marketing committee group with the parents to help us brainstorm ideas on how to help the school. She has been open to our ideas and has made some positive changes. The integration of two grades in a class has also made my children get closer with the next class up. The school feels closer than ever as we are helping in every way to keep it going as it has a rich history here in the city of West Covina. I love this school! Once a charger, always a charger! Go chargers!

Seeing my child grow academically and spiritually for the last four years has been very rewarding, to say the least. As a Teacher myself, I can confidently leave my child with a peace of mind. Knowing my child is taken care of and is receiving the personalized education needed to be successful is very valuable to us. Another reason why I recommend this place is because of the student to teacher ratio. This is part of the reason why our children are successful. Lastly, I want to commend the teachers and specially the Principal/Teacher here at Grace. She goes above and beyond for our students and the ministry alone at Grace Christian School; her mission and vision are truly admirable. And her leadership is remarkable. She takes her service to this community to another level. A great example of what a great servant of God looks like, trying to make a difference in this world. She is adamant to offer the best education possible to our children and leads her teachers to high standards. If you are looking for a passionate leader, that strives her best to take care of your children with love, respect, fairness and compassion, in a safe environment, this is the right place.

My daughter has an IEP and the administrative staff and teachers all work with her to meet her needs. I'm a so blessed that God has directed us to this school. I'm looking forward to my son starting this new upcoming semester. I would definitely recommend this school to anyone one desires for their child to be at an affordable faith based school.

I feel relieved that my children can attend such a school. He not only learned a lot of knowledge, but also learned correct values, various musical instruments, drumming, football, dancing and painting. If my children have to take classes outside and learn so many things, I have no way of doing it. This school has a very good educational team. They love my children very much. They know their needs and give them enough help. In addition, I never have to worry about my children's lunch. They eat a very rich lunch every day. My children tell me that the school meals are delicious every day when they come home. I hope you can also come and learn about this school, please don't miss it.

This is a newer school but the individuals who run the show here came from Little Seed in Walnut…read more Little seed is highly rated and hard to get in and this is their second location but located in Diamond Bar. They had a few bumps on the road when they first opened but they are open to recommendations and suggestions which is what I really appreciate. I think it says a lot when they can take suggestions and implement rather quickly. Also Miss Lizzy whom was at Little Seed is now here at KSA. She is really attentive and very thorough with school. If on a field trip-Miss Lizzy is active and always with the children watching their every step. If at school, Miss Lizzy is thorough with her teachings and makes sure you know the areas where a student might need additional help. She's really quite great at what she does. Other honorable mentions are Miss Angel and Mr Williams both great teachers. Miss Melody whom was helping for the summer has been Teddys teacher for over a year and she's a wonderful leader as well.

The school…read moreis wonderful and full of teachers who have a passion and desire to see our children succeed academically and spiritually. Jubilee provides a clean, safe and Christ centered environment and I have never questioned the safety of our children. The office communicates regularly about campus events. I have always been able to get ahold of staff and the principal is visible daily. There is a close knit community of families which is fostered through campus events such as sports, field trips, paint nights, movie nights, and invitations to attend weekly chapel. In addition Jubilee holds parent workshops to help us understand what our students are learning and offers us tools to help them at home. At the elementary level my daughters have done well academically performing above grade level standards in both math and language arts. In addition I have seen them grow spiritually in their prayer life and bible knowledge. The elementary teachers are just as wonderful as preschool teachers. They send pictures of our daughters during the day, respond quickly to messages and partner with us in our daughters' education. The greatest sight is seeing a school full of kids praying and worshiping Jesus during chapel. When my daughters have been sick, I have been messaged by administration or teachers with prayers for their healing. Jubilee provides extracurricular activities, my daughters participate in cheer. They have competitions and perform in community events. They get Spanish and Technology classes, so our girls are provided with a plethora of opportunities to grow in the arts. Socially they are thriving, at ages 7 and 6 my daughters are confident and know their is nothing they cannot do. They have never experienced any type of bullying at school. We love this school and would recommend it to anyone looking to invest in their children's education.

My daughter has been harassed multiple times by the dean and they have consistently made her feel shameful of her body, even though she is a star athlete that represents the school and has helped them win multiple times. I was originally told by one of their big alumni that they do not like children of color. As a mom with a black daughter, I did not believe it originally however, after my daughter now being at the school for two years, I realize she has been treated differently and she has been harassed because of the way she looks from teachers and the deans. They do not work with you, the school counselors don't get the schedules right, they don't return phone calls, they don't ensure your child is getting the right classes. It's almost like they don't even do work at this school, several are the teachers are extremely underqualified and they're just somebody's friend and they do not care what happens to your child. If your child forgets a lunch, they do not even allow you to leave the child's lunch. You are forced to buy a lunch from them. It just seems like all they care about is payments. The Catholic Church needs to stop funding them. This school is nothing but about taking your money and not doing right by your kids. They are not treating black kids right and they barely treat everybody else decent. I am so sorry that I even had my daughter come here. Now we are stuck here or she goes to multiple high schools, which is something I never wanted to do. Hopefully I can save another parent from this heartbreaking experience that I have been going through with this school. I am incredibly disappointed in the administration, the school and the Catholic practices that they instill. And I have no problem with religion, my oldest graduated from Mater dei and Bishop Amat is not even a 10th of what they are. I just live so far now but I wish I would have never went here. Hopefully this helps someone. Don't go here especially if you're black because they don't like us and harass all the black kids.
