We've been at St. Monica Prep for about a year now. Our family was living overseas and relocated back to Santa Monica. We were lucky enough to have our oldest daughter join for TK, Mrs. Stickley is AMAZING! We saw her soar in ways that I didn't know were possible. She learned about Polar Bears and by the end of TK was writing and starting to spell. In Kindergarten our daughter started Chess and Steam. We feel so lucky to be a part of this school and the incredible care and education it provides our family.

Wonderful school! We are very pleased with the education our child is receiving.

Very bad service. Michelle, the admissions director, had a ridiculously hard time clarifying what was necessary to get into the school. Originally telling us, by phone, that the only payment would be the $100 to have the kid take the test for admissions. Later, after we paid and called back to try and schedule the date for the test, she told us that after the test was taken and if the kid passed that we should try applying for financial aid!! I was shocked. Financial aid for what? She then said it's a private school. I asked her why she hadn't told,me that from the beginning and she brushed it off saying I should have known. Even though I told her from the beginning that I was calling to inform myself and possibly get the kid to attend. Worst part, it's a nonrefundable fee and financial aid won't help you cover the whole bill. She's a deceiving woman. Don't believe her!!!

Called this school for information on how to get a kid admitted. I asked her if it was a public or private school, since I'd only heard about this school through others. She kept saying it was a Catholic school. Which is fine. The kid is also Catholic. Michelle then said it would be a one-time $100 fee for her application test. I asked her 3 times if that would be all I had to pay and Michelle, the director of admissions, said yes. When I found out this wasn't true, I called her back trying to get a refund only to find out ITS NOT POSSIBLE. Kid never even took the test but that money is gone. All thanks to her not being honest about what the cost of the school actually was.
