VanDamme Academy, Aliso Viejo
The knowledge they need at a school they'll loveVanDamme Academy, serving grades K-8 in Aliso Viejo, has a simple formula for an excellent educational experience.
(1) Hire teachers that are enthusiastic masters of their subjects. (2) Keep the class sizes small. (3) Let the teachers and students work together for multiple years to form a strong attachment. (4) Get rid of everything else that so often gets in the way: homework, screens, etc.
The result: children love coming to school each day and feel cared for by their teachers and community; they care about the material, their teachers, and their school; and they leave 8th grade ready to succeed in any high school environment.
