I was a student there and went onto a UC. I think the school serves the community well, and provides excellent services to the students. That said, currently the school is not as good as when I attended simply because some of the finer teachers that were at the school have left and due to their humble funding, they are unable to provide higher quality. I love the school because it is a beautiful idea and a selfless institution and everyone there just wants to help you as much as they can. I dislike the school because of low funding.
My name is Roujina,I can honestly say City of Knowledge is the best school I have ever attended. It has the best academics, caring teachers, and an amazing administrative team. They care about the well being of students and how to teach them right from wrong ethically and socially. They teache us how to survive and carry ourselves in the real world. C of K provides so much that public schools do not and I am speaking from experience. I went to public school for most of my life. I found that they do not provide care and love like C of K. C of K provides us with ethics courses, as well as Arabic and Qur'an. Among the school's extracurriculars are its CKS Royals soccer teams for both boys and girls. We also participated in the Pomona art contest this year and had sixteen winners out of 32 total winners for the district's private and public schools (that is 50%. At City of Knowledge we have amazing volunteers, parents, faculty, and staff, who feel like a second family to us. I feel safe and happy at City of K and I plan on graduating from it Insha Allah. I give it the highest rating possible. I love my school and am thankful every day for the opportunity to attend it.
The school has a very positive impact on our three children and is the perfect partner that is helping us raise them. I m satisfied with the school s academics as well as with the extra curriculum activities it offers. Like the high school and the junior high soccer teams; I never miss a game, three straight years my son played on the CKS Royals soccer team. I m so happy with the amount of teamwork and support the students have amongst each other as well as with their positive attitude toward other teams they played (especially when they lose). This year I m so impressed with the extra curriculum class where the high school students went to different schools and advocated anti-bullying issue in their presentations to elementary and junior high school students. Also, the Peace Art Project Contest, all students got involved and presented their pieces of art to Pomona School District. City of Knowledge School had quite a few winners; but besides that, this activity open up students eyes on tolerance, acceptance, and moral issues that are very important in helping them build their social skills.

City of Knowledge is a blessing for the community Muslims and non-Muslims. Open door policy where teachers, staff, and administration listen and accomodate so much to support families and students Amazing record f success and acheivement among the graduates at all levels. A very strong math program and a superior reading program Close students supervision even on social media and continuously give advise and bring speakers to educate the students in religion and social maters. Facility is very well maintained. Extracuricular activities and field trips. Friendly environment. I advise any parent who cares about his children to send them to City of Knowledge. On graduation all the seniors give a speech and one Saudi graduate in her speech this year said that she had been in the US only 2 years and when she entered City of Knowledge she only knew two words of english (Yes & No). This graduate after 2 years at City of Knowledge gave the most impressive, clear, and effective speech in english and she had a lot of good things to say about the school & so did the rest of the gras. Well done City of Knowledge. Keep it up. May Allah bless those who work at and support City of Knowledge.

Wonderful dedicated Pricipal, teachers, and staff. Excellent academic program. It is a blessing for the entire community. I had 2 kid graduated to college.
A great school by all measures. A blessing for the Muslim and non Muslim community. Graduates are shining stars. You see them in all the Masjeds and you ask them where do you go to school they all say UCLA, UC Berkeley, UCI, Claremonte graduate school, Doctors, Lawyers, Teachers, Engineers, and more. Their aKhlak is all Islamic and they stand out because they are involved, kind, caring, and know their religion. Thanks to City of Knowledge. Mrs. Feryal M.- A proud community member
City of knowledge is an outstanding school; my son had the chance to experience it while we were on a two month holiday. He attended the school for about a month and a half. In this short period of time he learned a lot. As Muslim parents we all wish that our children get the best education as well as live in a highly Islamic environment, and Alhamdulillah those two aspects are present in the city of knowledge. Adding to that, the principle, teachers and staff are all highly qualified and if it wasn t for them the school wouldn t have succeeded. Without doubt if I ever move to America, city of knowledge will be the school for my children. May Allah bless this school and always be a door of success inshallah.
