Chatsworth Hills Academy

My wife and I had done quite a bit of searching for elementary schools across the Valley (everything from the local public school to charter schools, to private) before coming to CHA. All it took was one visit to the campus of CHA to know we had found the right fit. Not only is the campus amazingly beautiful and serene, the administration and kids themselves go out of their way to make you feel at home. Both of our children (grades 1 and pre K) are attending the school and LOVE it! We are looking forward to the next phase when the CHA campus will evolve with a new design that incorporates all the best elements of the surrounding environment while providing 21st century facilities for learning. I can't say enough about this school!

Our child has attended 2 Summer camps and preschool here - so far. We are extremely happy with the staff, curriculum, fellow students and parents at CHA. We really like the small class sizes which allow the teachers to address each child's individual style of learning. We cherish the teachers who have worked with our child as outstanding educators as well as stellar human beings. The campus is absolutely beautiful and conducive to connecting with nature. Our child LOVES going to school! We are looking forward to 8 more years here!!

The parents that stated bullying is happening at this school is SO NOT CORRECT. My daughter has been a student here for three years ago and a student was expelled right away for bullying. Unfounded claims not true. This is a beautiful school with amazing teachers. You can feel safe and know that your child can get accepted to any high school of there choice coming out of this school. My daughter is going into 7th grade and it is just AMAZING.

Our child went to CHA from Kindergarten and graduated in June 2010. She got an exceptional education. CHA provided an excellent academic program as well as addressing the whole child. It was an incredible nine years!!! We are truly grateful for the education our child received.

CHA remains the perfect choice for our family. Our kids have been there since pre-K, and our experience has been outstanding. The small class size, and direct teacher involvement just aren't available in other places at any price. When your kids would rather be in session instead of on vacation, you know you've found the right fit.

Similar events happened to one of my neighbors' kids where they were bullied by a student, and the staff and teachers looked the other way to deny it happened. This place is big on denial. they want to get rid of the good kids and keep the bullies there. The parents who speak out are silenced and outsted. There is an omnipresence and an underlying tension within the inner-sanctum of the school.

What a beautiful campus! The school itself was very good. My son's teachers were great with the exception of one. There was great variety in the subjects at all grade levels. My only problem (and the reason we left) was that my son was bullied and I felt my concern was not taken seriously.

All 3 of my kids absolutely love their school, with good reason. CHA is a truly special place. Academically it's outstanding, with small class sizes and creative teachers who ensure each child gets the individual attention and extra enrichment and/or support they need. CHA also has an incredible atmosphere due to its strong sense of community and the stunningly scenic campus. Faculty and students genuinely care about one another and parents are encouraged, but not pressured, to get involved. I couldn't ask for more and would recommend this school to anyone!

I love this school! The BEST part is that my son LOVES the school too! I really feel like they care abut the kids that go there and do everything in their power to make sure the kids succeed. The campus feels like a park, camping experience. The children become more in tune with their environment here and appreciate everything in it. The staff and children there all are so respectful and make you feel like a part of the 'family'!
