California Virtual Academy at San Diego Reviews

My 5 y/o is just now completing K, and I am SUPER happy with the school. My little girl can name all seven continents and their countries, count by 2s, 5s, 10's and 100s, add & subtract, and is a fluent reader. The curriculum is the best I have seen and the teachers & staff are very supportive. I get a lot of questioning looks from friends when they ask about socializing the kids- not a problem at all! CAVA has tons of outings to choose from and because my daughter isn't so tired from being in a classroom all day, she gets to do other things she loves like piano lessons, ballet, tap, and soccer.

I am a former student at this school, and I loved it so much. I ended up moving to a great area of San Diego in seventh grade, and the school ended up being a nightmare. My mom enrolled me in this school and I learned so much and it was so fun. They send you all of the different materials you need for free. I got all these cool books and science kits to use throughout the year. I could learn at my own pace, and I had excellent grades. Although I am in eighth grade now and have since moved on and I am in regular school now, I would say this is the best school I've ever been in. I'm currently trying to get into the virtual academy for Pennsylvania.

CAVA is just excellent! I have put my daughter in 2 different CA distinguished schools, and homeschooled her during the transitional time. I can directly compare the difference of her learning in both Traditional Schooling and Homeschooling with CAVA and I can tell you... there is just...no comparison! I am a single mom, and not even a stay-at-home mom at that! But she is learning leaps and bounds in her subjects. Whereas a traditional school would teach her only 4 basic subjects, with CAVA, she learns Math, Language Arts (with 4 sub subjects) , History (+ State History), Science, Art, and she even has a Foreign Language course! She has friends she plays with after her homeschooling, so she has developed great socialization skills. With CAVA I feel I am giving her the best gifts... one of a GREAT EDUCATION, and second, the gift of MY TIME and ATTENTION.

We love CAVA. My daughter was in a traditional public school and bored silly. CAVA offered her subject acceleration and allows her to move through the curriculum as quickly as she needs. She is now very challenged, curious, learning, and happy. Its a great school.

I am completely impressed with CAVA. My son is in 1st grade but was bored in traditional public schools. He loves learning but wasn't learning anything in the traditional school setting. So we pulled him and enrolled in CAVA. He finishes his work for the day and wants to do more! There's no boundaries on how much he can learn in CAVA, he can advance when he is ready instead of waiting for everyone else. I plan to use CAVA for my other kids as soon as they are old enough.

This is our second year with CAVA. We love it. We would recommend this for any parent that stays at home with kids. The one on one that your child will get is all worth it. Why put them in a public or private school where they fall behind or get left behind due to an over sized classroom? We give CAVA and A+.

CAVA parents are happy because we trade our time for more influence over our student's lives. And it is worth it! Our problem with the (highly rated) local schools was the unmotivated, disruptive kids getting in the way of our easily distracted child's education. CAVA is a pubic charter established by k12 which develops the curriculum and provides technical support. I can recommend the math highly. My student has gone from an F to an A! I wish I'd been able to learn Spanish with their program... it is fun and it works. This program is excellent for families who are able to have an adult home to mentor the child, even for teens. Our family quality of life is SO much better since we enrolled.

I love the K12 curriculm, and now they are offering foreign language through Power Glide. The staff goes out of their way to make sure every child is happy and supported. Academic projects, and contests are also encouraged at this school. They also provide Study Island, and Community Day for their students. If you are looking for an outstanding academic education this school is for your child.

I love the K12 curriculm. It is much more advanced than ANY public school (even blue ribbon and distinguished schools.) In fact I pulled my kids out of a blue ribbon school. CAVA now offers 9th -12th grades.

The K12 curriculm is much more advance and interesting than what is offered at any public school (and we have 'blue ribbon' and 'distinguished' schools.) The teachers are professional and helpful.

I absolutely love that CAVA is available as an option to public school!! Their curriculum is much more advanced and challenging than what the public school's, even though they are a 'distinguished' school. I wish I would have known about CAVA earlier!
