My memories of Toro Park School include playing on the playground and our Softball practices. I was on the Angels... imagine that (question mark).

This school has excellent classes and provide a great education. However, the reason for 2 stars is…read morethe fact that racism is tolerated. A student was using racial slurs toward my child, when I found out about it, I immediately called the school. I explained the situation and nothing was done about it. It's disappointing that a school with great education could be so careless about racism and even tolerate it.

I've had 3 kids go through middle school here and it's truly a great school. Now one more to go and…read moreshe can't wait. The school really prepares your child for high school and is academically superior to most of the other middle schools around here. With a new principal I have yet to see how the next 3 years will be, but I'm confident because the superintendent is great!

I have had a long relationship with the School - was a student for 5 years (8th-12th grades),…read morevolunteer there, have worked there, have friends whose kids go there now, and even chose the simple yet elegant chapel for the site of my wedding. Needless to say, I am a fan! The academics are top-notch and I use the skills and knowledge from the classes I took there to this day. Many of the teachers at York outshine the professors I had at UC Berkeley. The school setting is idyllic - on a hilltop in Monterey. And the community is welcoming and genuine. I am absolutely looking forward to the day when my kids can enroll and become "York Dorks!"

So after all these years I realized York didn't just provide me with a good education (is that…read moregrammatically correct?) but my closest friendships were made at this little day school perched atop a grassy knoll. As a class agent I have to get my act together and throw a tight 10 Year Reunion and 2008 is the year. Dios Mio. Seems like yesterday I was outside the chapel with my freshman class upset that my Mom forced me to go to York (since a good family friend sent their brilliant son here). After Freshman Overnight Orientation , I realized that my Mom picked the perfect school for me. Nice Work Mom!

If you as a parent, try to rectify the the absence, there is no one at the school that will act on the concern. This grade will effect the students GPA for college courses in High School! The principal does not follow up on emails. You will need to take time off work to go see her in person, with no success. Hopefully other reviews about the bully will be posted here.

Dear Chartwell, When I first arrived, you were perfect…read more I was learning at the perfect pace. Now I have graduated, and I can not say the same about you. If I was to describe Chartwells current state in three words, they would be the following: Racism, Sexism, Lies. These are the three most common examples of things that I witnessed while I attended your school. Your staff is underpayed, and your students as well as staff are gaslighted to believe that the school is doing good. I did not meet the necessary requirements to graduate, yet you let me walk and hand me a diploma. Thank you for my first three years Chartwell, but I will not be saying your name again until the Netflix True Crime Documentary comes out.

My daughter is thriving at Chartwell, school for kids with dyslexia. When we first went to the…read moreopen house, we were amazed by the airy, modern beautiful campus on the green lawn, small class sizes (3-8), fun classes like robotics, claymation, and we saw two 3-D printers. That means they teach CAD (So clever as kids are addicted to Minecraft)! They do hands-on, multi-sensory teaching where they might create a 3D object to measure the volume by actually measuring the length of sides. Language coding, much more explicit way of learning the language, made a lot of sense for us. However, it was the art display on the hall way and everywhere on campus that took our breath away. They are displayed in the way that you'd think this is an art school. The kids' art at all ages were so expressive, vibrant, and really intriguing. They even have a pottery studio. Art has always been my daughter's passion so we looked at each other, eyes beaming with enthusiasm. To get a taste of Chartwell, my daughter went to their summer school. Wow, what an eye opening experience it was for her! She said that the teachers made things so fun that even doing homework was fun. "It feels so good to understand everything, mom!" she said on the very first day. She was so proud of her daily mini achievements and she was sending me photos of pottery she made, video of a rocket she launched, even the photo of the white board that showed a tough math problem that she did correctly. My daughter started in the fall, and we received nothing but overwhelming support from her teachers and staff. I feel so fortunate that my daugther is at Chartwell. The next three years might be the pivotal point in her academics. She is ever so curious, happy, and proud of her learning progress. If she can approach learning in the way that she does now, I strongly feel that she is set for life, thanks to all her dedicated and passionate teachers at Chartwell.

School colors are still blue & yellow! The K-8th grade I knew has been shortened to K-5th.... And the schools gotten bigger! The playground equipment all looks decent and as safe as playground equipment can be. BIG Error of Omission on the schools part..... If you're out at the practice field (they are also home to the Toro Bulls Youth Football teams & Cheer squads) there are ZERO garbage cans OR any recycle bins to be found ANYWHERE!? Explains the large amount of garbage clinging to the fence lines around the Entire School! Sad. The kids I know enjoy attending Spreckels. They like their teachers and the teachers I've met all seem to have their act together. The auditorium still looks exactly the same. When setting up for the book fair last year, it gave mii oddly comforting chills to be up on the stage I walked across 22yrs before to get my 8th grade "diploma". Kinda nice to know that some things stay the same- stand up to the test of time! They may not be perfect but I'm proud to be a product of Spreckels Elementary! Proud to continue to support our schools!!!!
