- The schools is safely located right across the street from the Chino Police station. - Open campus was very well maintained. - Staff provided all the information needed without asking.Looking forward to our child attending this school year at Walnut Elementary.

I'm currently going to graduate in the year 2027. As a junior, I have to say that the only thing this school does is making you feel awful about yourself and emotionally numb nearly all the time. First, the environment, is completely competitive as many kids are taking AP Classes in and out of the school. Those that fall behind are counted as a tier lower than other people. It is feels like a rat race as many people do whatever they can to get a good grade. After all, learning didn't matter anymore when colleges came around. Second, the teachers, nearly all of them make me question how people do well in their respective classes. Most of the time, your child will need to self-study to at least get decent grades, and that is just decent, not good. Third, the costs, and there is going to be lot in time and money alike. I myself, already have tutoring for 3 classes which is outrageous itself. The costs for doing this per month is over $1000, yes $1000. Not only that, many kids already know the material, so they outcompete the other unfortunate kids easily in each assessment. Especially for AP Classes, your going to need to be at least middle to top one percent of the country to actually afford good grades. Fourth, diversity and the perfect test score claims. Unless you want to count the percentages of each race in the statistics area, majority of the school is Asian. Every AP math class or science class is going to have a nearly all or full Asian class. The perfect test scores are only from students who are insanely smart or from kids who have private tutoring. Like I said it is nearly impossible to get good grades without tutoring in this school. Students should get the credit not the teachers. Fifth, the lack of spirit and events is obvious. There is no school spirit, it is completely forced. Everyone is in the same race to get a 5 on the ap test for their college resume. The amount of people that go to any event is also extremely low because people are focusing on tests and other assignments. Sixth, the policies at this school. The policies are fair except for their bullying policy. I find it quite questionable that both the victim and bullies are suspended for any occasion, despite multiple witnesses. Overall, please reconsider other schools before choosing this one, I am sure there are healthier options then this one. Do yourself and your child a favor by avoiding this school. Your going to lose money and joy on it, trust me.

.My experience at this school has been very negative. The teachers and staff do not address issues of racism or bullying; instead, they ignore them. The academic standards at this school are below average, and there are better educational options available elsewhere. Additionally, the principal is not involved in matters related to students' emotional well-being.
