Rosemary Elementary School

The MAC community became a second home for my daughter right from the start. Over the past three-plus years, we have watched her grow from a curious toddler into a confident, joyful, and capable child ready to take on the next chapter. Every day was filled with learning, kindness, patience, and encouragement, and those moments shaped who she is becoming.We are deeply thankful for the opportunity she had to learn, explore, make friends, and feel truly seen and valued. Being part of this community during such important early years has meant more to our family than words can express. These years will always hold a special place in our hearts, and we carry forward immense gratitude for the love, guidance, and foundation you gave our child.Thank you for being such an important part of her journey.

I love Casa however, this honest review is for the sake of the current or new parents & kids for Primary programs only. - Always have both Parent's & Teacher's meeting together in person or emails, do not just talk to teachers after school by yourself or drop off & pick up line. Keep in mind that there is only 1 assigned main teacher for your kid, not three teachers. In order to get any other Teacher's feedback or prospective, you will need to request a meeting all together in person including the Primary Director. Otherwise, you can only talk to one main teacher for 3 years. - If you see or hear your child is frustrated at school for any reason, request a Teacher and Parent's meeting asap. You can also request multiple class observation(s) for yourself & your spouse for a specific class sessions or recess observations 30 min each. Talk to your kid and see how your kid might be struggling to ask for help or help them describe how they feel. Listen to your child and try to address any behavior concerns asap, not weeks later.- If you happen to get all good feedbacks on the conference reports twice year, make sure you arrange many playdates for your kid outside the school. This way you can see how your kid interact with the peers socially. Talk to other Parents and see how other kids are doing at school. Do not just rely on the conference reports. If you see any behavior concerns, let the teachers know so they can also pay closer look especially during the recess time. - You can see the academic curriculum progress report on the Transparent conference reports from the Kindergarten year only. There is absolutely nothing for the first 2 Primary years progress, unless you request them from the teachers. Do not just take Teacher's word for it and follow up to see what was done, things your child is good at or not good at see if there is anything you can do to help. - Finally, feel free to give Parent's feedback to Primary Director and Head of the school assistant or Head of the school. Especially if you're having any communication issues with the teachers. They will at least try to help communicate better for the sake of your child. I hope this review is helpful where Casa can improve the lake of communication issues in Primary program in the future. Hopefully we can have better experience soon and I will follow up with the review within the next 3 months.

My son recently graduated after attending Old Orchard from K-8th grade. He and his classmates benefitted from teachers who challenged them, a culture of excellence, and a diverse, tight-knit community where students felt comfortable bringing their whole self to school. Very different than what I remember from my large, public middle school experience! He and his classmates were all accepted to their top choice high schools with placement in honors and advanced classes, and I have no doubt that they're all very well prepared to succeed in high school and beyond. We loved everything about the Old Orchard experience from the school's seamless response to Covid, the inclusive sports program, investment in arts and language, and diligent preparation for high school admissions process.

Little Tree Montessori in Campbell is a fantastic find. The dedicated teachers, with consistent English and Chinese instructors in each classroom, create a supportive environment for both children and parents. Even the youngest students (starting at 18 months) learn foundational skills like sharing and social interaction, alongside early literacy and numeracy. The school also emphasizes performance, which builds valuable public speaking skills. We were impressed by how well the preschoolers thrive with the Montessori approach. The optional daily hot lunch, featuring both Chinese and American options, is a convenient bonus for busy families. Compared to other local programs, Little Tree offers excellent value. Both of my sons have thoroughly enjoyed their time at the school, benefiting from the curriculum and the caring teachers.

This is long overdue review. I would like to express my gratitude to Sage Academy for the significant transformation that they have brought about in my daughter's personality. Initially, I was apprehensive about how quickly she would adapt to the new environment, but I was pleasantly surprised when she came back home excited on the very first day. Years later this excitement continued to grow each day and has had a positive impact on her confidence level.I am delighted to see that my daughter has developed a newfound love for reading, which was not there earlier despite my constant reminders. Additionally, she has become more self-motivated, and this change is remarkable. I also appreciate the school's policy of allowing kids to interact with other students from different grade levels. This has been a valuable experience for my daughter.I am thankful to the school's teaching style and Jerry, my daughter's dedicated homeroom teacher, for making this transformation possible. The school has provided an environment that fosters growth and development, and I am grateful for their efforts in helping my daughter become a more confident and motivated individual.I strongly recommend Sage Academy to any family who is looking for an alternative to the traditional education system. In my opinion, Sage Academy is a hidden gem that offers an unique approach to education that is tailored to each student's needs. I am confident that other families can also benefit from this wonderful educational institution.
