Bubb Elementary is a fantastic school that provides a supportive and engaging learning environment for students. The data is clear: ON AVERAGE, the students here are about 2.5 grades above the average kid their age. So they're doing just fine. The facilities are modern and clean—just recently, the district spent $50 million upgrading most buildings. Every window has been replaced, security locks have been added, and the HVAC system is brand new. It’s basically a new school now, and it really shows. Even the tarmac was resurfaced and repainted. As for the bathrooms, I’ve never seen an issue, other than the occasional wet paper towels on the ceiling (which, let’s be honest, is just kids being kids). The custodial staff does a great job keeping things clean.On the topic of bullying, I haven’t experienced any issues with my son or his classmates. The staff seems proactive and genuinely invested in making sure all kids feel safe. At least in my son's class, he can't even point to a bully. I’ve heard there’s a mean kid in fourth grade, but nothing systemic or out of control.The school lunches are hit or miss, but overall, they’re fresh and made in-house. The pizza is made from scratch, and they even bake all the muffins themselves! They could do a bit more for vegetarians, but it’s clear they put effort into providing quality meals.Homework expectations feel completely reasonable. My son and the families I know have never felt overwhelmed—no one seems buried in work. In fact, there’s no homework at all in kindergarten and first grade, which I appreciate.Bubb Elementary is a warm, well-run school where kids feel safe, supported, and challenged in the right ways. If you're looking for a school with strong academics, a great community, Bubb is a great choice!

My kids have been attending Landels for the last couple of years and I’m delighted to say that we have had such a positive experience with Landels School. As we experienced the teachers and staff are highly dedicated and incredibly caring. They create a nurturing environment for all the kids to foster their academic and personal growth. We found the curriculum well-balanced. This engaging curriculum has a good emphasis on academic growth (Math, writing, reading, ELD) which results in high test scores school-wide. Also, all classes, K-5, have extracurricular activities like STEAM, Art, and Music classes throughout the school year. Moreover, we observed that the Landels school system is fostering character development alongside academic growth which is crucial for creating well-rounded individuals.What we love the most is a strong sense of community in our school. As one engaging Mom, I truly can say that our school has a welcoming and nurturing place for all its students. With a number of events, meetings, playdates, and gatherings throughout the year all families come together frequently which has a big positive impact on our school community. This sense of belonging and shared experiences is essential not just for students but also for their families.

Just no not a good school at all

My heart is so full being an Almond parent. Watching my kid grow as a citizen, student, and friend has been a true joy fueled by Almond's excellence. Thank you Almond teachers and staff, especially the 4th grade teacher crew!

We came to know about Canterbury Christian School through one of our church friends, and we immediately scheduled a visit. During our tour, we were warmly welcomed by the headmaster, Rev. Macias, and from that moment on, there was no turning back.We enrolled our daughter without hesitation, and we’ve witnessed her grow remarkably — both spiritually and academically. The school fosters a wonderful Christ-centered culture and provides an atmosphere that is nurturing, disciplined, and uplifting.One of the standout features is their use of the ABEKA curriculum, a strong and structured academic program that not only challenges students but also equips them to face the world with confidence and conviction.We are truly grateful for the positive influence Canterbury Christian School has had on our daughter, and we highly recommend it to families seeking a solid Christian foundation and academic excellence for their children.
