I have my daugther in Kindergarden at CVLCC I truly believe that is a great school. What makes a great school? well great principle, office staff, and amazing teachers. I love the fact that the school is dual immersion (English/Spanish) and I like the fact that they are multicultural. Like almost everything else there can be room for improvement like more online accessibility to students homework, assignments, etc.

I actually graduated from CVLCC in 2003 and I can only say great things about this school. I had such a wonderful experience and I owe all of my achievements to the wonderful programs that were offered while I was there. I have known the principal all of my life and there is no doubt in my mind that he works day and night to see his students succeed in all they do. I am now a college Sophomore in Los Angeles, CA and I am succeeding both as a student and professional. CVLCC is a wonderful school that I would love for my future children to attend.

It has the friendliest and nicest staff I ever met. You can tell the difference as soon as you come in. You really feel welcomed. CVLCC is a also a high performing school and embraces biliteracy.

I am a parent of a kinder student. CVLCC is an incredible school! The principal is visionary and has created a learning community that consistently challenges and inspires students. The teachers are dedicated to providing the best learning environment for the students. It is great to see the family members and community so supportive of and involved in the learning process.

I am a parent of a 1st grade student at CVLCC. I truly believe this school is the right fit for my daughter. The math and social studies curriculum is very strong. I love that the school has a Micro- Society! I love listening to my daughter speak about what she believes the work force to be. Parent involvement is a requirement and my daughter loves seeing me take part in her education. The principal takes pride in his school community. I am very pleased with CVLCC!

After being pressure by sister, who is a 1st grade teacher, to enrolled by daughter at CVLCC. I was not sure if it would be the correct school for my daughter. I truly believe the correct decision was made. CVLCC is a great school. From the staff to the parents and of course the students. Besides the sense of community felt at CVLCC, academically the school ranks one of the tops in the district. I am very proud to say my daughter attends CVLCC

I'm probably being a little bit bias, but I truly believe that C.V.L.C.C. Is one of the best schools is San Diego. Their bilingual immersion program is very impressive. I know that parents that only speak english are proud to see their sons and daughters speak fluent Spanish by the time these students reach 5th or sixth grade. Another especial program that this wonderful school offer is their micro-society program, it teaches students as young as kindergarden to deal with real world decisions and activities. I'm also proud of their excellent body of teachers and school staff. It really doeas take a total goup effort but it really is worth it.

My sons (twins) attend CVLCC; we have nothing, only good things to say about our school. All teachers and all the staff are excellent. The principal is an extraordinary man with great ideas for the community, staff and his students. The parents are treated with respect and strongly participation with their children, and become more involved in the school. The teachers have very high credentials and are all bilingual! I am great fool with the principal, teachers and all the staff of CVLCC.

My two children attend CVLCC and we have nothing but good things to say about our little school. The teachers and staff are just the most caring people; you feel the warmth of the environment as soon as you enter the premises. The principal is a visionary man with nothing but great ideas for the community and what is most important: what he does for the children. One of the aspects that I admire the most about him is the empowerment he gives to children to make a difference in the world There is very strong parent participation at CVLCC, ideal for all of those parents who like my self, feel they need to be a part of their child s education. I only wish we had an extension to Middle school. 1st & 4th Grade Parent

Our daughter entered kindergarten this year at CVLCC. We have been ecstatic about her progress so far in language arts. She is already reading both in English and Spanish. Lots of parent participation is required but is great for the children. We love the focus on the world and dual language acquisition. There are plenty of opportunities for child leadership and interaction with other childen of other grade levels through Micro Society.

Excelent school. CVLCC not only teaches our children academically but they also teach them the core values of life. All teachers and all the staff at CVLCC are excelent. They have resources to help them achive their goals and they involve parents 100% they make us aware of what is going on with our children and what we need to do in order to help them, we are always too bussy in our daily activities but all the teachers make that extra effort to talk to us and give us any feedback. Keep up the great work you are doing CVLCC. Linda Palomino

The school has a very involved and passionate staff. The curriculum is split equally between spanish and english. The students participate in many extra curricular activities and my son has enjoyed the school. There is a community service requirement. Under the existing Charter, the School can overrule the district on decisions regarding curriculum and academic standards. We have been happy with the school after 1 year.

My son has been at this school since kindergarten and has loved every moment of it. He is now in the 4th grade and doing wonderful. The teachers here are both creative and energetic in teaching our children. The parents are treated with respect and strongly encouraged to participate with their children and become more involved in the school. He has been given the space and tools needed to excel at his levels and pushed to do so in his own way. Giving my son the opportunity to learn another language is the best gift any parent can give. My second child was very excited and couldn't wait to begin Kindergarten at CVLCC and now his journey will also begin. CVLCC rocks!

I have pulled my children out of this school. Many of my friends have also. We realized that in 4th & 5th grade, the students were far behind in their English academics which is required in middle school.

I been a volunter since my older daughter Monica started Kindergarten in 1998, now she is in 5th grade. I have Alejandro in 3rd grade, Erik in 2nd grade and Cristina in Kindergarten. They have very committed teachers and high expectations. The school focus is reading comprehension and math. They have thematic curriculum and the school teaches the same reading, writing and math strategies from kinder thru 6th grade. They have a 50/50 dual immersion program (English-Spanish) and the MicroSociety program from K-6th. One thing that I like about the school is that because of MicroSociety, all the children knows each others name and their brothers and sisters. They also have Music, Fine Arts, P.E. and Technology. My children love the school and their teachers. They are very happy and grateful to be part of this school.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 California used the California Standards Tests (CSTs) to test students in English language arts in grades 2 through 11; math in grades 2 through 7; science in grades 5, 8 and 10; and history-social science in grades 8 and 11. Middle and high school students also took subject-specific CSTs in math and science, depending on the course in which they were enrolled. The CSTs are standards-based tests, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of California. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the tests.

The different student groups are identified by the California Department of Education; if there are fewer than 10 students in a particular group in a school, the state doesn't report data for that group.
