This is a great school with a tight knit community of all students, faculty and parents. It is half the price we were paying for another school with the same great education along with closer attention to each student! Our previous school did not permit 4 year olds to move up to TK where this school does with no fuss or problems; this was a great selling point to our family along with the incredibly kind and loving staff as soon as you walk in!

Love this school! My oldest son has been attending St Christopher since he was kindergarten and is now currently in 7th grade. The school has caring teachers and faculty, affordable tuition and smaller class sizes. Other private schools have 30+ students which doesn't give the students the attention they need. My son and his classmates have been friends since kindergarten and soon they will be graduating 8th grade together! We have made life long friendships here because of this school. He's grown up in this school, feeling safe and a family environment. Wouldn't trade his experience here in the world! Thank you St Christopher. Here is a picture of my oldest son and his basketball teammates representing St Christopher. My youngest son is currently in 2nd grade and loves it here. He will be having his communion this year and is looking forward to it.

St. Christopher Parish School is a fantastic school that ranges from TK-8th grade. The faculty, facilities, and Church are all top notch. I am so happy that my kids are able to go to such a fine institution of learning. Moreover, I am even happier that we are treated as family every time that we are there.

The teachers and other staff are amazing! The families of the other students have become our family. My children have never felt uncomfortable or uneasy about going to school, they love it!

I love our school. My son is so happy here. The new Principal is great. I love her interaction with the students and families before and after school. She has made some wonderful changes. Office staff is very friendly. Teachers and staff truly care about their students. Love to see my son so happy and comfortable. I had the blessing to go to St Chris and glad my son is here now.

This school is a hidden gem, I found this school 5 years ago by researching online and I'm glad I did. Student teacher ratio is great, communication with teachers and principal is great, everyone one of our teachers has something different to offer and they are all outstanding. The parent involvement lacks a bit, it is usually the same people involved but with time things are changing for the good here. I would recommend this school.

The school has a great student formation based on discipline, respect and motivation. The moral values are part of the education emphasizing the importance of service. My wife and I we are really proud and happy to see how our kids are growing in a healthy environment and challenging boys and girls to be better in life and as students. Parents participation is a vital part of the boys and girls success. In my opinion, St. Christopher it is a really great school that prepares the students to continue their education for success.

This school is a hidden gem! I attended many years ago and my children attend today. It is as wonderful now as it was then. It is a loving and caring atmosphere with people who care about the best interests of our children. The class sizes are small. The children get plenty of attention and are taught at or above grade level. I LOVE the smaller school size.

Our school is small, but that is part of the beauty. we are an extremely tight community, from the administration, to the parents, all the way down to the students. i always appreciate, how the older kids acknowledge my kids, eventhough they are much younger. we have built some great relationships, with other families, throughout the years. most importantly, we are extremely happy with the administration. unfortunately, there is a negative. as far as parent involvement, it seems like it is always the same families, putting in work.

I went to St. Christopher School as a child and feel awesome about sending my two sons here. The school is very strong on academics. St. Christopher is also helping my children grow into boys of strong character. It is important to me that the boys are educated in our Catholic faith and daily my sons offer me a "refresher course." I love the parents at St. Chris. In my sons' classes I have met a lot of quality parents who are dedicated to the school. They have a strong Parent Teacher Group who works hard to make sure our kids have fun events to participate in while also working hard to raise money for our school. Our teachers are amazing and highly qualified. If I am not mistaken, almost all have their Master's degree. The principal is really sharp and easy to talk to. I just feel really good about the direction of our school. We are up for accreditation again this year and I know that we will show our "Goodness and Excellence through Service." Go Chargers : )

St. Christopher's is an excellent school. Their delivery of education meets and exceeds CA standards. My daughter moved from a local "recognized" charter school where teachers are on FB during class, discuss openly how it is ok to be single and pregnant, and get drunk at school functions. St. Christopher's teachers are professional, educated, and experienced. They are role models for all the students (on and off campus). Supportive staff and the families. An excellent school for educating your child.

Our school is a small school but extremely big in heart and love. We all work hard together to try achieve goals to keep our school running. Our teachers go above and beyond for the kids. I love this school and try and do what I can to help them succeed. The school has a great teacher to student ratio and the students truly benefit from this. It is a catholic school so not only do they benefit from academics but they also get the religious education also. We are trying to raise funds to help improve our athletic department and need funds to update our classroom tools and such. Thank you in advance for your help and time. We as a community appreciate it and myself as a parent.

St. Chris is a great school. Our son has been here for 7 years. This already very good school has continued to improve during our stay here. I say 'our' because we are a community. The teachers are highly educated and dedicated to our children. They are committed to both our students academic and Christian spiritual advancement. We have a very active PTG with dedicated parents. We have seen continuous advancement in the STEM curriculum (science, tech, math) since our son has been here. We will be sad in 2014 that he will be graduating but we are comfortable in knowing that he has received both a strong academic and a moral foundation to pursue his future goals. We got a new principal last year who has a positive learning attitude. We are so happy with her. With her energy and ideas we see only good things for St. Chris future. We are committed to St. Chris and even though our child is moving on we will continue to actively support the school in the future. Go Chargers!!
