Cranbrook School

My daughter currently is a kindergarten student at Quarton. So far, at least, I have only positive things to say about the teachers and principal, as well as the parents and community, and recommend the school unequivocally. In fact, my wife and I based our decision to move from San Francisco, California, to our Quarton Lake Estates residence specifically because of its close proximity to the well-regarded Quarton elementary school. Having said that, I do have one issue with this school, which is its poor management of the car pickup and drop off line process. For example, certain parents feel entitled to cut in line for afternoon pickup, showing up at the last minute and cutting in front of all of the other cars who have waited patiently in line for 10-45 minutes to get their kids. The school needs to implement some system to penalize these offenders because it is totally unacceptable. No one should be entitled to cut in line for pickup; we all have jobs to do and have places to go, after all. That said, I love the school and recommend it highly.

I want to put in a good word for an aide who works there. Her name is Aleka and it's very clear she has a love for what she's doing - helping and encouraging young children. It's truly a delight to see her in action!

I absolutely love the school. Coming from a private Catholic school, which was a complete nightmare, Bloomfield Christian school has made my kids absolutely happy. We are happy to be there and we love the curriculum. My kids have thrived and I will continue to send my kids to the school. I wish more families knew about it.

Am amazing educational community connected to the Network of Sacred Heart schools. My daughter was given leadership experiences and opportunities that don’t exist at the other private schools in our area. Not to mention the opportunity to participate in multiple sports while having fun!

IT'S ALL FOR SHOW AND TOXIC ENVIRONMENT.... Seriously consider and ask about qualifications and teaching methods when considering this school. This school has changed drastically in the past five years and has very concerning teacher retention or teachers that basically are fresh out of college then usually leave. It lacks compassion and is not a warm environment for children to learn. The school no longer is exclusively a parish school and is about 75% Chaldean leaving no diversity. Last spring it came out that multiple children were being asked to kneel at length for punishment. Admin blamed one teacher, but all my children said it was used in their classrooms at one point or another. There was a wonderful priest at the church but the one who now overseas is strictly concerned about money and has cut all services and extras. This is not the sophisticated catholic school you knew growing up.
