As a parent of three children that attend Repetto for 3 years my experiences have not been great. My child has been bullied by two individuals for over a year now. I have spoke to the principal/ vice principal and so far nothing is being done. Teachers conference are always about what your child is doing wrong and make you feel like it’s only your child that is behind. Homework is such a stress in our home my child’s 3rd grade teacher send homework home every weekend. Most staff members are only there for a paycheck and they don’t care about your children. The principal shoves everything under the rug. If you ever want to speak to the district it’s completely on lockdown you can’t enter unless you have an appointment. Good luck with this awful district if you choose to send your kids here!

I say my experience is horrible. The school is too stressful and the stuff they give us is pointless. I and my fellow classmates stay up to midnight finishing assignments. We have no break when we get home. I saw that my academic performance went down once I came to my school. It is hard to learn good stuff. The monitors on the field when it time for lunch are just bad. They're too nosy. They always watching us even in the bathroom. I feel like they want to get us in trouble. It like a prison. They took my watch away for looking at the time. It was that bad. DO NOT COME TO THIS SCHOOL

Yesterday we went to our last open house at Repetto School. Both of my kids went to this school, we've been with Repetto 11 years! Along with our younger son graduating in couple of weeks, we'll say good-bye to Repetto and Repetto teachers, Ms. Mac, Ms. Freng, Ms. Kwak, Ms. Yip.. you're the best teachers in my and my kids' memories, thank you for your hard working, God bless you all.

as a principal natalie gaither did a fine job,she was very accomodating and did her best with what was given to her.she will be missed at repetto and her new school has alot to gain.she worked hard for these kids to make sure they succeeded.if your child didn't succeed maybe the blame should be placed on your child and yourself as a parent. My only problem with the principal is that i thought she was a bit to easy on the kids when there needed to be stiff penalties for bad behavior,other than that i feel she did a fine job here at repetto

The principal Natlie Gaither is very bad. She does not care about students. All she cared was making money. She prefers to give students medicines if they are not quite enough or follow her rules. She will be moved to Brightwood elementary school. I have asked all the parents on my street and none of them would support her to stay in Repetto. A big waste of our tax money. We are the permanent residents in Monterey Park. We need a good principal!

The teachers a Repetto do an excellent job, and the office staff have been very helpful when things need to get done asap.

Repetto is an amazing school! The teachers are strict but creative and the principal works hard and has a smile all the time. Parent support is very strong.

Some staff show cleavage. You let your boys goes to school to see that? Lots of teachers wears sandal to school. Doesn't anybody sees the unprofessional clothing? Why kids have to wear uniform and they dress like street ladies? Office staffs are definitely rude and uneducated. They ask for donation all the time, act like they're so poor but upgrading on plants but parents have to buy all the supplies. What donation for? They built the great wall of china making it more difficult for parents to go in the office, other school isn't like that. This IS NOT a private school. Their eyes is in their forehead.
