I couldn't have chosen a more magical place for my children.The staff is amazing and creative. They have inspired and instilled a love of learning within my children.HSH has a well balanced curriculum that truly follows its mission statement.
I have been a teacher at the Hollywood Schoolhouse for 18 years. I find it quite funny that some parents feel the teachers are droppping like wild flies. I can assure anyone who reads this that 95 % of the teachers who are here have been here between 10 to 18 years. Why so long? Because we love this school and are passionate about what it believes in. Not only do we have one of the top fine arts programs, we have a teaching staff that puts 110% into the curriculm he or she teaches. It shows with the amazing projects, assembilies, field trips to Sacramento and Washington DC, and strong test scores. As for the administration, they couldn't be more supportive and go out of their way to help families with needs. Our strong community is felt throughout the school. I would not want to work anywhere else!
The Hollywood Schoolhouse is an incredible place to send your child. This is a place where children live and learn. The staff is inspiring and the environment is wonderful. My children are thriving there and we love the parents.
I had the unique experience of working at this school. It became apparent early on that the parents ran the school. It also became clear that the emphasis was on creating a 'fun and funky' (actual quote) school that was more akin to a day care center. Academics were present but were not stressed. Big deal made about a sense of 'community,' but I never felt it. Lots of cliques amongst parents and teachers made it feel like high school. Finally left and am now happily ensconced in a real school where academics are emphasized and all are valued and appreciated. My vote? Stay away.
