Schools in Chino, CA

“We’ve had a great experience with Fern Academy. The teachers are patient, caring, and truly attentive to each child’s needs.

At first, I thought it would take my child about two months to adjust, but with the teachers’ support and encouragement, she stopped crying and started feeling comfortable by the second week. She even began eating lunch at school, which made me feel so relieved and happy. This has honestly been one of the most important things for our family in the past two years.

I also really appreciate their well-organized activities like summer camp programs and “Fern Kitchen,” where kids get hands-on, creative learning experiences. It’s not just childcare — they truly focus on development, social skills, and building confidence.

The communication with parents is clear and consistent, which gives me great peace of mind. We feel very lucky to have found such a well-run school with amazing teachers, and I highly recommend Fern Academy to other families”

“As a parent, starting preschool was a little scary for me. My son had a speech delay, and leaving him somewhere new was really difficult at first. I worried about how he would adjust and whether he would get the support he needed.

Looking back now, I am so grateful that we made the decision to enroll him here. Since starting, his speech and motor skills have improved significantly, and it has been amazing to see his confidence grow.

Mrs. Tonja has truly been a blessing to our family. She is absolutely wonderful with the children. She guides and redirects them with patience and care, and you can tell she genuinely wants the best for every child in her class. My son talks about her all the time, and as a parent, it brings so much peace knowing your child is in such good hands.

She always paid attention to the areas where my son needed extra support and made sure to communicate with our family along the way. That level of care and dedication means so much to us.

We are incredibly grateful for Mrs. Tonja and the positive impact she has had on my son and our family.”

“This review is long overdue ?
My daughter began attending Gateway Academy in January 2024. It was very hard on both of us at first. We were going through a difficult time, and the thought of leaving her with anyone other than family for such a long time (6:30am-5:30pm) was the scariest feeling for both of us. Luckily, they had an app where they sent pictures often and communicated when needed. Not only did her teachers (Ms. Edith and Mrs. Letty) make it such an amazing and comforting experience for both of us, but the whole staff ? they really do it for the kids. Ms. Denise was there for her in the morning on her first day, so welcoming ❤️. I will never forget that on her second day of school, it was so hard to leave her. we both cried, but the amount of relief that came over me when I saw a picture Mr. Roberts sent of Ms. Breanna holding and consoling my baby ?❤️ i can't express how grateful I am. It is forever in my heart. Ms. Breanna and Ms. Carla were always there for her and other students in the mornings, always engaging with them with blocks or other activities. When we would first walk in, We were always greeted by Ms. Stella, who was always so nice, often times I would see her comforting a student at the front desk. Her and the staff made it their business to learn each of the students names which in my opinion, made it a much better experience for the kids, making them feel seen. Seeing so many teachers who weren't her teachers acknowledging her by name and taking the time to talk to her every day made it feel so welcoming. Ms. V was also very helpful. Mr. Roberts was so understanding, so welcoming and so selfless.
On top of all of these good qualities, I was also impressed by how convenient it was financially compared to other places. It was worth every single penny. My only regret was not finding the school sooner ? it would have saved me so much trouble. I can literally write a 10-page essay on how good the school is and why I recommend it to everyone. I can't express how grateful I am of every single person there, I had to work long hours, and they were present when I couldn't be it still makes me cry to this day. Thank you Gateway Academy ❤️ forever in our hearts. Cristina still asks about everyone ?❤️❤️”
