I wish there was a Lizzy's Schoolhouse when we were younger!…read more My opinion, from an educator who has seen too many things: Not every child is meant for a mainstream classroom. Unfortunately, there aren't many alternatives for families. I'm so glad you have built this brand , and your company is providing an option for families, especially the CHILD! Now more than ever, we are seeing the traditional school system fall short. Children thrive when given consistent opportunities for social and emotional growth in small-group settings that prioritize emotional intelligence and genuine connection!! Exactly what you are doing through close, small-group connections. So proud of the work being done to prioritize the 'whole child' over standardized tests that are completely outdated and ridiculous! Way to go!!!

We began searching for a tutor that would be the "right fit" for our daughter, Vyla, some time ago…read more During the 2020-2021 year (4th grade), our daughter was lucky enough to be in-school learning, as COVID prevented many from not being in-school. However, Vyla had been struggling since the beginning of her 3rd grade year, when COVID first hit. Her studies took a nosedive and we had been playing catch-up since. Although being in school was incredibly valuable, she continued to fall behind. As Vyla entered the 5th grade, we were determined to get her caught up as quickly as possible. We considered a few other services, which all looked great, but there was something very warm and positive about Marsha when we discussed Vyla and our determination to get her back to grade level. Marsha reviewed Vyla's background, listened to all of our concerns, reviewed an academic evaluation we had Vyla complete, and discussed an education plan moving forward .When Vyla began the 5th grade, we then reevaluated what Vyla should be doing, based on what was going on in her class. Marsha focused on Vyla's gaps, and with each session, Vyla became more confident, and more focused! When we started, Vyla was hesitate, as Marsha was "new" and she was not sure if she would work well due to having to complete her schoolwork; she was worried about being over-worked. But with each new session, Marsha showed Vyla that studies could be fun! Marsha challenged her with quiz's, facts, flash cards, and Vyla could feel the improvement in her studies. As the school year has progressed, Marsha was quick to utilize the areas Vyla was working on in school, as well as testing her on her spelling, math, and reading. Marsha is kind, patient, and very accommodating. She is willing to work with your schedule, and is flexible provided you keep in communication with her. She wants to work with children, and you can tell she cares - she cares about their wellbeing, education and self-esteem, which is very refreshing. We are very happy we found Marsha, and intend to keep working with her for the rest of the school year, and hopefully next year as well! We completely recommend and appreciate Marsha, who is truly a friendly, experienced and professional tutor. Thank you!

Since she doesn't start TK until fall of 2027, EPCC is the perfect in between place. Their program is scheduled more like an elementary school while still being flexible enough to allow the children room to be their age. All the teachers and staff are so lovely and knowledgeable. My daughter loves going every day and can't wait to go back the next! I also feel extremely safe with their security system and how often they let me know what's going on. Not to mention all the fun activities, shows, and events. It's a wonderful place and so much fun. I have no doubts my daughter will be 100% ready for elementary school when the time comes!

We could not have found a better school!!!! EPCC is incredible and offers a really kind, wonderfully supportive school for the kiddos. I think what makes this school stand out is their kindergarten program which I cannot stress enough is THE BEST kinder. My daughter came out of it comfortable with spelling tests, reading short books, and a general confidence in taking risks and chances in math and spelling. The kids are pushed and expected to be challenged. They end up rising to the challenge and leave kinder with such a wealth of information. BEWARE though that once you leave this kindergarten you will constantly be comparing how much your child learned in kinder to where they go next! lol They will be WELL prepared for first grade and truly leave with such a strong foundation feeling so capable. Shout out to Ms. Lori, Ms. Danielle, Ms. Kim, and all the teachers that make this place INCREDIBLE.

As an alum of Curtis and now a parent, I can see the incredible impact Meera has had on the Curtis community. Not only is she personally invested in the school, as a parent, but also as a head of school. She is warm and is one of the most involved heads of school I have ever seen. She makes a point to get to know every student on campus and has an open door policy for ALL families on campus. She has turned Curtis into one of the top schools that feeds into every elite LA high school. Curtis students are well rounded, well behaved, adaptable, and more than prepared for middle/ high school. I feel so fortunate to have the opportunity to send my kids to Curtis and I hope Meera continues to lead the school for many years to come. Curtis is such a special space and you are lucky if you are able to experience it firsthand!
