Private Schools

There’s no other Catholic school to which I’d rather send my children than Sacred Heart Covina. The education here is top-notch and the school regularly updates its safety & emergency policies as new threats emerge. I feel very secure sending my kids here and take pride in the fact that they are receiving the best education possible.

This school is the best!!!! We wouldn't send our girls anywhere else.

Hi um what even is this place I always drive by this place and I went to school right next door please help me; what is this place for??

I've been with BASIS for 3 years, and here is my opinion: The curriculum is far more advanced or intensive than any other school I have seen or known. The teachers try their best to help out struggling students, and their specialization in their subjects allows them to easily ease any confusing areas. Especially recently, BASIS has started getting rid of some lower quality teachers and replacing them with higher qualities ones, something which just about all students can support. The only problems I really have with BASIS are non-curriculum/teaching based, i.e. the building... those are minor anyways. But we really only come to BASIS only for the curriculum. Note: There are so many people at BASIS who complain about “stress,” which I fail to see a reason to. The main source of homework problems is not that there is too much, but rather people just don’t do it until right before they sleep. As far as I know, the majority of people who complain about homework just stay up till 1 browsing Snapchat or watching TV. If people choose to put no effort into their work, they can leave. Everyone else is perfectly fine with that. But it gives them no justification to complain about homework loads. -Salty Minty

Best school

The best experience! This was a great program for me! Thank you Parkridge!

So far this school offers exactly what s advertised on the website. Small class Skilled educated teachers. Strong parent presence. My daughter is so happy to have joined this school after 4 years attending another private school close by, where the teachers were lacking teaching experience. The kids are happy friendly and the school principle has many years of experience. field trips and hands on learning. A lot to offer

My experience, with Basis as my new school for my daughter, has been very positive. My daughter comes home bursting with new information and new things she wants to learn. She has created a set of very nice friends there, who share similar values as my family. Her love for learning is alive and well and I really have Basis to thank for bringing that back into my daughter's school life. It isn't about memorization and test scores, it is about stimulating children's minds and making them so eager to learn that the test scores are high but very secondary to the purpose of the education. I am glad we made the shift. A few standout things: 1) They are not just a zero tolerance on bullying in words, but in action. They have bully experts as part of their staff. 2) Their teachers teach from just the subject matter in which the teacher loves and is passionate about and has in depth knowledge about. Long gone are the days of asking one single teacher to teach all topics. I love the method of a subject matter expert teaching. Those teachers teach from the heart and soul about what they love. 3) The administration is easy to reach. There is no barrier to reach them. Call and see. It is really that easy. 4) The 2nd report card: The school does an academic report card and a social report card that looks at the student's whole being, not just academically. This helps identify things like stress factors, behavioral norms, and gives the parent(s) an opportunity to see the child's emotional well being too. Every school has things that aren't what you want exactly, Basis has those but they are all so minor like busing schedule that it seems petty to even mention them. I am so glad to be a member of the Basis community.

My daughter started pre-kinder last year and we've had a great experience. Can't wait to start Kinder this year. Teachers are great, small class sizes, affordable and care until 6:30pm.

Talk about innovative creative learning. Those kids are the leaders of the future. Not the “text book structured” followers…

The music teacher Mrs. No is the best teacher I've ever had, she's amazing!

I think this school is the best. I was having trouble with GG. School District and didn't know what to ,we came across page by accident went in spoke with the director she was very helpful. I am a single mother on a fixed income she works with me but the most important I have seen such improvement in my son he now loves going to school and is enjoying reading he doesn't fight me on doing his homework

Beautiful school, would reccomend it!
