“I am a parent of two students at Bert Corona. I have a child that will become a 7th grader this September and my other child will be a new 6 grader. I would like to thank all the 6 grade teachers for all the great work. They have really showed me that they really care about my child. When ever they see that your child is falling behind they will make sure you know and they give them the opportunity to improve the grade. I would like to thank the school principal for giving my children the opportunity to be part of this school and for all the great work that he has done, including making sure the campus is secure and safe. The after school staff has done a great job too. It has all been a great experience, I am really looking toward the next school year.”

The teachers work before school, on their breaks, and afterschool with the students to help them with work they don ot understand They have hired a parent coordinator that is always available and runs weekly parent trainings for parents. They even have computer classes for parents. Bert Corona is a great place for students and thier parents.”

“Bert Corona Charter has a lot to offer with good teacher and administrators.”

“Bert Corona Charter is by far one of the worst schools in the San Fernando Valley. You would think a charter school with such a small campus would emphasize in academics and teacher involvement. Don t be fooled! The school staff makes no effort to return parent phone calls or notifying of up coming events. Test scores alone do not make a school worthy of recognition.”

“This charter school is a typically start up school with a immense lack of resources and administrative leadership. Students at the school are better off attending neighboring middle schools where they might receive more academic attention. The resources avaliable to students with learning disabilities are very inadequate. This is an prime example of why cooperate non-profits should not develop charter schools.”

“Bert Corona Charter is a excellent school in the San Fernando Valley. They teach the children to be strong leader in academics and in the community. The staff and teachers put so much time and effort into the children's education.You would think they live on campus. The principle has improved the campus 100 %,and this is his first year there. They have a good after school program that provides several activities; sign language, dance, basketball, and tutoring. The program coordinator truly cares for the children and there family members. The only one thing the school lack is parent involvement!”

“I do believe this school needs better leadership and security.”

“This is a FANTASTIC school. We were a bit taken back when we first brought our song there, but once we got to meet the staff & the teachers - we were impressed! This year, the school has a new principal and he is AMAZING! Our son has improved 110% and that is thanks to those amazing teachers. You can have a beautiful school campus - but with worthless teachers & staff - the school means NOTHING. This school does not have all the bells and whistles when it comes to appearances, but it totally makes up in their teachers and staff. BRAVO Bert Corona!!! I am proud to have my son in that school and it tears me apart that he has to graduate from their next year. You can't find teachers & staff like that who cares about our kids. THANK YOU!!!”

“Ok school, needs improving though. Pretty clean, could be a bit cleaner. Good teachers and staff. Overall I'll give it an ok.”
