Paradise Charter Middle School

I am a father of 2 children who attend Paradise Elementary School. We've been living in Paradise since September 2013. My daughter has attended Paradise Elementary for 3rd and 4th Grades so far and my son is in Kindergarten. I've been very impressed with the quality of teachers and staff there so far. I have learned that the years in elementary school are both critical and special in developing children. I think Paradise Elementary provides a well rounded curriculum which meets the kids' scholastic and social needs. The extra curricular activities such as field trips, child performances, school fairs and open house nights are enjoyable for both the children and parents. My wife and I have also enjoyed the opportunities to participate in our kids' education by volunteering in the classroom to help the teachers with anything they need. Some people prefer not to help in the classroom, I personally believe it is beneficial for everyone because it helps the parents stay connected with their children, the teacher as well as the curriculum.

Excellent staff starting with the principal. We came from a nearby charter school and found the excellect education for our children here at a public school. Absolutly the best kindergarten teachers around (we have 4 kids). There is a positive feeling at this school, teachers and parents are friendly and positive. It's great that people still greet each other with "Good Morning" and how are you! Great school for special needs also...again, starting with the principal and carried out by every teacher on this campus. Great Job Ponderosa!

My child is doing extremely well. The small class sizes allow him to focus, and really connect to what the lesson is about. It is great to pick him up from school and hear all about what he learned that day.

I am an educator at CCCS and have been their for ten years now. It is my favorite place in the world to be each day.
