School Reviews

My children are greeted with a smile and a happy staff every morning. My children attended another private school in Simi Valley and had the worst experience you could imagine. The change to Phoenix was a dream; the staff is friendly, positive and actually cares about the kids. The ENO boards are a technical blessing but the fact that the school uses Singapore Math puts them on the top. We spoke with many private high schools and the skills they are gaining at Phoenix Ranch will actually prepare them for admittance. Our family could not be happier with the school!
