Canyon High School

Anaheim Hills Montessori School is a Great foundation for little kids and an amazing place for kids to start with their first year learning. Our son has been attending Anaheim Hills Montessori school for 2 years. My husband and I both work and wanted to find a place where our son would be comfortable, learn, socialize, and be cared for while we could not be with them. That is what we have found in Anaheim Hills Montessori. Over the years we've experienced wonderful Christmas programs, elaborate art projects, creative open house themes, Halloween Trick O treats, Thanks giving Party, Field Trips, Parents Day Event and the ultimate success of seeing our child thrive. The class environments are clean, playful and instructional, and the outdoor play area is safe for children to run around, Swings and slide and climb. We LOVE everything about Anaheim hills Montessori!!! The teachers are very nice, welcoming, nurturing and kids always learn somethong new on daily basis. Thanks alot to Ms. Harshini, Ms. Ridima, Ms. Ruksana, Ms. Maggie and other staff members of Anaheim Hills Montessori school..Great teachers

I am disheartened by my experience with Vineyard Academy as a parent. The school's militant atmosphere, characterized by strict expectations and unrealistic standards, is not conducive to effective learning for many students, including my own. The teaching style, reminiscent of a taskmaster, has resulted in frustration. I believe that the lack of credentialed teachers may contribute to this approach, as they may not possess the necessary experience to engage students. When I brought my concerns to the school's attention, I was disappointed by their response, which shifted the blame to my student rather than addressing my concerns. We have since found a better fit for my student, who is now exceling in a more supportive school environment.

This review is not about the teachers, who are professional and dedicated, but about the administration’s poor communication, lack of respect, and overall negative environment. The teachers do their best with the kids, but even they seem to struggle under the management’s harsh policies. It’s an unhappy place for both parents and staff. A mistake occurred with my tuition payment, and despite multiple emails requesting a resolution, their responses were unhelpful. They ignored my calls when they saw my number, even though they provide phone contact details, and refused to let me speak with the school owners. It feels like the owners are completely disconnected, hidden in the shadows, unaware of what’s really happening. When I asked to escalate my concerns to them directly, I was flat-out denied. Why is it not okay to talk to the superiors? Parents should have a voice. I also constantly worry that if a teacher is absent, one of the harsh administrators will step in to supervise the class, which is not reassuring. Their approach lacks warmth, and everything is handled in an overly rigid, impersonal manner. After many failed attempts to resolve my concerns, I had no choice but to share my experience here. I truly hope the owners read this and take the time to call me so I can explain all the mistakes and issues firsthand.
