Private Schools

I have friends there and soulmates

These two sisters who own the school are SO far detached to a real congenial education system that it is sad. As a parent, if you'd like to communicate ANYTHING to the director or sub-director...forget it! They will never sit down with you or they will never even answer you. They insist that you buy THEIR books, instead of finding them in another place to try to meet you family budget and make things work for your family economically. Also, amongst various mothers that were creative during the year finding deals on books, materials & uniforms sharing shipping charges to save the family's money, the 2 owners of the school NOW insist that you buy the books directly from them at $1,500 pesos for each book. JUST TO MAKE MONEY...They do not care about anyone's well being. They will insist on you buying uniforms for the students, EVEN WHEN THE CHILDREN DO NOT PHISICALY GO TO SCHOOL. I always "was" proud to say the my kids went to Metropolitan Academy. NOT NOW!

This is a wonderful place for children ALL children. I have had the benefit first hand of watching and listening to the staff work with the children. Autism included is there name and action.

I was very disappointed. IMO, better preschools in the area.

I go there

It's a great place to learn, i'm a student there and it's fun! The teachers are nice and know what they're doing. We have lots a field trips, in a few months, 6-8th graders are going to the east coast for a week. Now, if you're looking for a big school, I don't suggest this school, it's got a population of 60 people. But nevertheless, it's still a good school. 5 stars

#1 rip off

My son is one year ahead thanks to Victory Academy (formerly Pilgrim Lutheran). Public school would not accept him into kinder because he didn't meet the birth date cut off. Well Victory accepted him and he now reads, adds, and has all the facts! It it also $300 cheaper each month than day care. This is a really close knit environment. All of the children know eachother. I love the team approach with the 5th graders and kinder children. Now it's time for 1st grade; and although I can move him to a public school for 1st grade, I cannot see my son leaving this school and being thrown out to the wolves. This school is WASC accredited as well. Thank you to all who have contributed to this wonderful school.

One of the best places in the world. God truly works through CEM. You will be blessed if you go here.
