Nothing is perfect. Learning is a journey. My hope as a parent is that my child values learning. At this school the value of learning is exceptional in English, Math, Foreign Language, Visual Arts and Cultural Studies. At other schools those may be in Science, Athletics, Music, etc. For Armenian Community School, I would say our experience is very good because we value the items where they are exceptional and we don't value the areas where they don't excel. There is a family-like culture on campus that also is teaching our students about basic human skills like care, compassion and love. That also is a rare characteristic in a public school setting.

My daughter has been going there since Pre-K. I love that she's learning so much of her fundamentals in numbers, letters, etc, but also culturally learning famous poems, songs. She's grown tremendously because of the way the teachers nurture and educate. It's a great community to be a part of.

My daughter has completed her first year in Pre-school and has an AMAZING experience. The culture, community and support of the school is something unique that cannot be obtained anywhere else. We love it at CKACS..

My daughter has been attending this school since preschool. It is a great learning environment and she has become an outstanding bilingual citizen in the Central Valley. Her teachers have always treated her like family and she is friends with all the students at the school! It’s a great and SAFE place to be!

excellent program. high educational attainment among alumni of this school - around 1.25 degrees per student. high test scores and high functioning students while there are in the program. the bi-lingual education probably helps stimulate the child's mind more in the formative K-6 years. to top it all off, kids are warm, compassionate and good people who thrive as american citizens who understand, value and preserve the armenian culture.

Poor...It has potential but the current board will not be able to provide adequate leadership.

We are so lucky to have this school in our community. The teachers are excellent and the kids love going to school. They get a fantastic education in small classes, music lessons, poetry reading, sports, drama and more........ they have it all.
