Both of my children have attended Cubberly since they started preschool and my oldest is now in 5th grade. The school has community feel and has some amazing parents that help promote programs for the kids. The staff has changed over the years but they have all been amazing with my children. My oldest has an IEP and they all work so hard to make sure my concerns are addressed. They make sure to try to change what may not be working. The principal works tirelessly for the kids even if the other reviews say differently. This really is an amazing school and I feel blessed to have found it. It is small and there is a real sense of community.

Run away. Your child is not safe here. Seriously, it is unsafe. My child was assaulted there in PE and now has a potential fractured growth plate in his arm, wearing a cast. Their backpack was slashed with a knife. All n the first two months. Is it worth the risk seeing what happens next? NOPE!! RUN AWAY FROM THIS SCHOOL! It’s for bullies. Don’t let your child be hurt next. They can’t keep your kids safe.

Horrible. It offers two honors classes, so students applying to good colleges can't compete unless they have a super high SAT score, because of the lack of rigor. When you complain or file a legitimate grievance, they blacklist you and take it out on your child including not nominating them for scholarships, not completing forms for college applications, etc. They are absolutely horrible. The teachers are decent. The principal is the worst I've ever seen. She cares more about herself and how she looks than the students. I had a student with a 4.0 that was denied admission by several colleges just because the school never submitted the documents needed, in spite of being request months in advance. If you want your child to go to college, don't go here. The student that said they had a 4.5 - that is a lie - with only the 2 honors courses, a 4.5 GPA is absolutely impossible.

I’m an early graduating senior, an opportunity open to anyone willing to stay on track and work hard. I’m currently participating in one of the school’s unique experiences - by graduation, I will be a certified emergency medical technician (EMT), a unique program offered by the school. I also have a friend in the certified nurses assistant program, and they will be a CNA by graduation. Incredible opportunities not available elsewhere as far as I know. Many of us have also graduated with about a year of college already done, thanks to the dual enrollment program with mesa college up the road. Thanks for a great four years, Kearny BST.

The school was decent mediocre teachers that just want the paycheck. I remember taking biology here and getting this crazy teacher named Horowitz that to this day I don't know if she was bipolar or hated life or both. So, advice is to just switch out if she even still teaches there, and make sure to follow the very strict dress code.
