Glendale Prep

My children are fortunate to have been some of the first students enrolled at GP, and were able to see their campus being built. I can't say enough positive things about Glendale Preparatory Academy! Starting with the amazing office staff, the Headmaster, teaching staff, support staff and athletic staff, each have been nothing but caring, professional and invested in the students as a whole! We are grateful to be a part of such an amazing community and know that our children have the tools needed to succeed in higher education.

One of my biggest regret was sending my kids to that school! The only thing I liked about that school is the front office staff, but the entire staff/ teachers/ coaches are corrupt, and are on power trip,s these poor kids are constantly Punished/detention for absolutely no reason. And as far as sports is concerned they will only pay attention to those kids that come from money there’s definite favoritism only if you have money they will like you.

As a student at Glendale Prep, I feel obliged to provide a review on my experience. Glendale Prep not only prepares their students for life as an adult, but the rigorous curriculum builds necessary skills such as problem solving, reading, and formal writing while enforcing a study of the liberal arts that expands your mind to the endless possibilities of philosophy, art, music, and drama. Every students is required to take college-level classes, including a two-period long class called Humane Letters where students dive into classics and seminar on different topics in the book that can be applied to real-life situations. The curriculum also includes the college-level courses that cover the large spectrum of sciences and maths, while also providing in-depth history classes. Middle schoolers are required to take Latin, and high schoolers are given the option between Spanish, French, and Latin/Greek as their language of choice. The community built by the teachers, staff, and students is encouraging and makes everyone feel like they belong to one big family, and, although uniforms are required, individuality is encouraged through the study of art, drama, and music, through numerous extra curricular clubs, and through numerous high-level competing sports teams for both guys and girls. Overall, I feel lucky to have the opportunity of studying at GP. I’m prepared for my life as an adult and don’t regret a second of my time spent here. Glendale Prep is amazing, and I strongly encourage families to put their students in this school.

Do not let your kids go to this school! Big mistake ! I don’t know how they all play the lottery system. But my child has been in lottery for 3 years with Great Hearts. Finally a Better public charter school that’s in competition and is also in the ranks accepted him immediately . Other students also say that Great Hearts curriculum is outdated. They are missing the boat in today’s fast paced technology.

We are extremely grateful to Great Hearts. After attending Rancho Solano Private school, we were a bit scared of entering into a quasi-public school. Their approach to education and citizenship is stricter than many kids are used to, especially after coming from public schools. However, they are molding our children into great people that care about the material that they are discovering. I would liken the students to the kids from the movie, Dead Poets Society, where kids are self-motivated and anxious to understand the nuances of different thought. I would, however, warn that if you are looking for them to be a babysitter for your misbehaved manner-less child, then you are looking in the wrong place. It is a school where it is \cool\ to want to learn and excel. The truth is that not every kid is \Great Hearts\ material, nor are all parents. It takes involvement and dedication on all parts. But, what I would say is most impressive about the Great Hearts Schools in General, and Glendale Prep in Particular, is that when you see them at a sports event, the kids are respectful, polite, and extremely engaging. Thank You GP for all that you have done for my kids and family!
