The mission of Cullen Elementary School is to provide each student with opportunities to reach his/her full potential as a lifelong learner through implementation of high academic standards, providing differentiated instruction to all students, in a safe and nurturing learning environment while maintaining strong home-school-community connections and promoting individual responsibility.

The elementary schools are amazing, the middle schools are OK. However, the high school is horrible considering what you would expect in a great community like Glendora. Most teachers have been amazing, with the exception of a few. But, that is probably true at any school. However, the communication to parents is lacking in so many ways. There is so much to learn and know to help your kids take the right classes and prepare them for college, but hardly any information is given to parents. Also, a lot of the events that take place at school are not clearly communicated. There aren't many opportunities for parent/family involvement, and if there are they are not communicated clearly. Hence, the poor lack of communication that I see as a serious problem. Also, there is a scholarship program available for students called CSF, but never any clear communication about it. And, they make students wait in a long line during their lunch to turn in their application - with NO exceptions. Most other schools let students turn it in online or some other way that is more convenient and fair to students. Many students are losing out on this opportunity due to lack of clear communication and INADEQUATE practices in turning in the application. Also, there is so much nepotism in the athletics department and courses due to the high amount of staff that have family members (kids) at the school. I know of at least 3 students who left the school for other opportunities in sports because of the obvious nepotism. If you are deciding between nearby public high schools, I would say that they are all better than Glendora High (Bonita, San Dimas, Claremont) if you want your kid to have a better chance of being accepted into some good colleges.

They don't gaf about the students ther so many kids tried taking their lives
