Del Mar High School

SJCS is a school that supports its students, staff, and families. As a Christian school for Christian families, SJCS administration leads with grace and love. The teachers and staff care deeply about the students and their well-being. Additionally, school leadership holds high expectations for strong teaching as well as for student behavior and academics. Administration works hard to lead the students to walk in the way of the Lord and holds them accountable for their actions. With rigorous academic, non-cut sports, and a variety of extra-curricular activities, SJCS sets students up for success in high school and beyond. I would wholeheartedly recommend this school for students preschool through middle school.

This is a very good school for Chinese and Japanese speaking families. Our son goes here and still is attending. Teachers and kids are great here. Since it's bilingual, the kids dont pick up English as in other schools maybe until 3rd grade. Math is way ahead of the other schools. It may need some work on other subjects, but its a small school with limited resources. The principal (the owner) is too busy on all the matters related to the school. If he is not responding, communicating via the teachers usually works. He and his wife do care about the students. We talked to the principal many times in person before sending our kid there. Bullying is NOT tolerated at this school. During our time here, one student was kicked out due to bullying and abusive language to the teachers. And other bullying activities were disciplined and corrected right away. This may be good or bad depending on how your kids will adapt to the real world. Overall, it's a pretty good school. If parents like the Japanese style teaching and environment, this is definitely the right school for you.
