Private Schools

It's a great school, and I'm glad that my children have the privilege of coming here. All the great staff and The mission trips . 🙏🏻

Their holistic approach is great! We have two going through their toddler program, and another in their kindergarten program. They keep us in the loop, and the natural environment and teaching methods are fantastic. Go take a tour, one visit, and I was hooked! We've never looked back, happy with what our kids are learning. :)

First, I would like to say how thankful I am for the amazing school and program that I have had the opportunity to allow my daughter to be a part of. Sending your only child off to Kindergarten can be overwhelming, sad and exciting all at once, at least for me it was. The choice for my daughter to attend Little Stars Academy for kindergarten was the easiest part of it all and more than half way through the school year proves to be the best choice I could have made for her. Mrs. Anderson and Mrs. Atchison have provided my daughter with an exceptional education and truly amazing experiences that unfortunately can’t exist in public school education. Being that the class size is small she has created bonds and friendships with the other children that I know will last a lifetime. My daughter comes home with the neatest projects, stories, and knowledge and fills my evenings with fun. She has the opportunity to have lessons that are truly tailored specifically to her and challenge her in the ways she needs to be challenged. I have found that with my friends’ children who attend public schools, unfortunately this is lacking. I see my parent friends who get frustrated because either their child is not being challenged enough or they are not getting the help they need. With the continued frustration of school district budget cuts I don’t see this getting better for teacher or students. I couldn’t imagine my daughter being 1 of 35 when she has the opportunity to be 1 of 10 as she is at Little Stars Academy. I am so grateful for Mrs. Anderson and her absolute care for the education and success of my child. Not only does my daughter receive an outstanding education beyond anything I could have imagined but she has a great time in the classroom; climbing the rock wall, playing in the firehouse, reading books from the library, and she is even responsible for watering some plants. She wows me every day with her ability to read, write, and the logic she comes up with as a 5 year old. As a full time working mom, I know this would not be possible without the support of a great education organization like Little Stars Academy and great teachers!

My daughter has learned to read in less than 5 months... She loves it and the staff is absolutely wonderful. Every child receives the attention they need individually. I would recommend this private school to any parent concerned about their childs education..

The staff here is amazing and everyone is friendly. I'm sorry to hear of a previous reviewer's negative experience - because that is not indicative of the daily interaction my family had at Discovery Isle in Murrieta, where our son attended for a year. At first, I'll admit I was hesitant to check out a facility in a shopping center, but once I visited Discovery Isle my fears were put to rest. It is tucked in the back of the shopping complex, and there is plenty of outdoor space for the children to play. The classrooms are clean, and the building is secure. Every morning we were greeting in a cheerful manner by Ms. Jennifer or Ms. Renee (or whomever was covering the front desk). The curriculum is age-appropriate and I appreciated the monthly and daily updates we received on our son's activities and progress. During our son's time there, he was moved up a class based on his age. Teachers in both classrooms kept us apprised of how our son was doing, and welcomed the opportunity to speak with us when we had questions or wanted to give updates. Ms. Leanna is amazing! She has so much patience and gave great ideas for helping our son develop a joy for learning and respect for others. I cannot say enough good things about this early childhood education center. I would highly recommend Discovery Isle to anyone looking for preschool/care for their child.

I was a substitute teacher here. The faculty, families and students were wonderful. The campus is beautiful overlooking the wine vineyards.

The pastor is a disgrace to the catholic church. He has the audacity to beg for money and mention it during the mass everytime. He makes jokes that are NOT appropriate and are very offensive. HE IS DISGUSTING AND UTTERLY RUDE.

This school provides a high income education for low income families. The education is based in classic liberal arts. While the school is working on accreditation it by no means lessens it's value. The teachers are amazing and my children are being taught to use reason but also are in a safe environment.

Our daughter goes to Montessori American School and we are so happy with the experience she is having there. All the staff and teachers are so attentive to the needs of the students and helped my daughter settle in at her own pace and in her own way. She absolutely loves school and I have seen such positive changes in her independence and confidence since she started. You can tell the staff are so passionate and really care for the kids and allow them to learn and grow at their own pace. Between the nurturing environment and the high quality curriculum we could not be happier with our choice!
