Best Preparatory School Long Beach Near Me

Joyce Haywood: just to see if people hang around campus etc. and to my surprise I was greeted by Coach Josh Jones, how professional and what an inspiration, he seemed to care for the students and reassured me of the changes at the school and advised it was not a "big riot" and it happened off campus years ago. Mr. Jones was very passionate and professional, I left feeling, if this is a example of the staff here I am excited to enroll my son for the upcoming semester, then I went back on another day and met Coach Box more confirmation both of these young men with no problem assisted me and answered any questions I had regarding the school.I will share more once my son has actually begun the school year. But I am now willing to give it a chance as long as I do my part as a parent andthe school does theirs this should work out!!!! My first impression 4 stars!!! Based on those two.

Tony Zuniga: Thank you RDPS STAFF For all your Support,and Great Job in Keeping Our School Safe..I Really Appreciate all you guys Do.

Flynn Anderson: i loved this school!!!!!!!

Everett Roth: I graduated in 2011. I have many memories that I wish I could experience once again. Good times. Great School!

Minh Nguyen: The small student to teach ratio allows for individual attention and development. There about about 20 or less students per class with a full time teacher and an aide.Moreover, the faculty is fantastic. They care and invest their energy and time to each student. There is an open door policy from the Head of the School down to the administration and teachers. There is clear communication with regards to what is being taught, how it is being taught, and what is going on campus. Further, the campus is clean, safe, and modern. Parents' involvement is high. Heck, even before school started, the parents got together for a summer bbq to meet and know each other and have continued to do so with holiday parties.Presently, both our children attend Westerly. Yes, the tuition is high but if you can afford it, it is worth every penny. The children will gain the confidence and skills that they'll need to be successful in high school, college, and eventually life outside of the academic world.Each year, each member of the 8th grade graduating class gives a speech at Graduation.The level of confidence, skills, maturity, honesty, and rawness of those speeches literally bring tears to parents and the audience. I am looking forward to the day when my children give that speech.That said, Westerly is not for everyone. There is a rigorous screening process during which the kids are assessed and the parents are interviewed.The school prizes itself on bringing in families who care about their children education and who will be actively involved. It is an independent school in which children with behavioral problems will be asked to leave. However, it is not an elitist school. The school offers generous scholarships to families who need assistance. Its student population is reflective of the diverse community of Long Beach.If you are considering Westerly, the best way to obtain information is simply visit the campus and talk to other Westerly parents.
