Julia Ann Singer School: Years 1978-80 Location Cedar's Sinai facility, Alden Ave. Los Angeles CAThe most empowering and efficient teachers and program for highly intelligent children, who did not naturally conform to preset norms, rules and standards. All 8 children in program were able to excel while there. As a parent I gained invaluable knowledge and diagnostics, which supported future paths and decisions. My child began reading aloud at age two and understood geometric principles. However, did not speak first sentence until age four in class at Julia Ann Singer. Music, art and group sessions flowed naturally. This was a conscious environment!
Endorse Vista School. Endorsements should be a few sentences in length. Please include any comments on:
- Quality of academic programs, teachers, and facilities
- Availability of music, art, sports and other extracurricular activities
- Academic or athletic awards
