Excellent teachers and office staff. Many afterschool activities and teams for kids to join. I am very happy with the school.

The instruction is fairly good, and the Chinese Immersion program does a great job of integrating Chinese in the curriculum. However, the homework situation is way out of hand. A couple hours per night in the lower grades is the norm. (In spite of a school policy that says otherwise.) And to make it worse, it is usually filled with repetitive 'busy-work' tasks. It is clearly geared towards families that like Chinese-style rote learning who want lots of homework to occupy their kids at Kumon.

My daughter is in kindergarted in the Chinese Language Immersion Program at Meyerholz. I have found the school to be a wonderful place for children to learn. The teachers are great - warm and dedicated. The parent community has been much stronger than I had expected in a public school, and I have really enjoyed getting to know the other parents even with my busy work schedule. The principal is very good. She does a fantastic job of pulling together the two communities at Meyerholz (the neighborhood and chinese immersion programs). Public education is desperately underfunded in California, and I think Meyerholz does a great job of educating our daughter despite the challenging budgetary situation.

This school is great in academics as well as the environment. The teachers are excellent in making learning fun. There is Chinese Immersion program in this school and it is great to learn second language.
