7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy son attended kindergarten at Skyline for a year. We had a great experience. The teachers and principal are great communicators. He left kindergarten reading, writing full complete sentences, and his math was at first grade level.Parent Review3y ago - Washington Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI'm so sad that this school is no longer open. My 3 year old is going to need a preschool next school year and I have no idea where I'll find a comparable school to Arcadia. My daughter loved it there and it was great for her to socialize and learn in a positive place with such great teachers.Other Review2y ago - St. Patrick Catholic School
