CornerStone Christian Academy & Tykes Preschool

The 2 teachers from pre- kinder wanted to put my child on a year behind. Especially I paid for one year of tuition for my child, it was confusion I almost agreed with that. Certainly I took my child to another private school to get tested obviously and he passed the test for kindergarten. And one of their assistants was not kind talking to me, she was disrespectful her speech. It happened one time she harassed me at the office and I didn't like her offensive approach.

Honestly, all of the positive reviews and comments about this awful school is all lies. Its basically advertisement of a money-seeking school. The staff does not care of your needs and doesnt take attention to any matter, if its important or minimal. They constantly fundraise for money but not using it for the students needs. They buy unnecessary things like stage props and not for educational purposes. The tuition is extremely high and tremendously needless, which is $800 a month. Thats $8,000 a year for one child resulting repulsive learning. I recommend not going to this school and taking advice from this statement.

My middle school students had such a terrible experience at this school this year. I truly hope others have a better experience than we did because middle school years are so fragile. There are so many things I want to say but I just want to move on

In November 2020, I scheduled a tour over the phone with Cornerstone to check out their Elementary school program. My daughter was due to begin kindergarten in the Fall of 2021 and my husband and I knew that we wanted our daughter to be in a private school. Prior to my tour appointment for CCA, I had already toured St. Christopher's Catholic (virtually), Merryhill Elementary School (virtually), Challenger School Los Prados (in person) and St. Anne Catholic School (in person). The school does not look much from the outside but upon entering, I was greeted by a very welcoming front office staff. My tour guide (can't remember her name at the moment) is in charge of the curriculum selection for the school. She gave me a very thorough and detailed tour. She showed me all the areas (apart from the preschool since I was there for the elementary school). She gave me an insight as to what they were doing to keep the children and staff safe during the pandemic in order to be able to stay open all school year. Unlike CCSD schools and charters, CCA was still doing in person learning and stayed open all 2020-2021school year. The school has an impressive dance studio, beautiful chapel, playgrounds to accommodate all ages and more. When our tour concluded I knew that I wanted my daughter to go to school there. I was that impressed not only with the work they do with the children but with the overall feeling that I had throughout my tour. It was at this time that my tour guide advised me that when the time came near for kindergarten open enrollment, my child would have to be tested to see if their rigorous curriculum would be a good fit for my child. The children in their PreK program had an automatic reserved spot but if I wanted her to go there, she'd have to be tested. She handed me a packet with all the things she would be tested on for me to work on with her at home. My daughter was no where near ready, so I asked for information about the PreK program. The Preschool Director, Ms. Benson (ahhhmazing lady), gave me a quick tour of the preschool side. She brought my daughter and I to one of the preK classrooms and it was one of the best classrooms I have ever been in. My shy girl was completely engaged with the whole room and the teachers and the students were so kind to her. Needless to say, I signed her up for their PreK program that day! My daughter is currently in their Kindergarten program and she is thriving and getting a great education. We look forward to many years with CCA. As long as we are stationed here, my daughter will be going to CCA. ---Lillian W.
