Review for Clairbourn School, San Gabriel, CA, USA
My daughter attended Clairbourn school for 10 years and is now a junior in high school. We are amazed to see her academic success. Clairbourn School has provided an environment for her to develop interests in art, drama, coding, robotics, and music. We want to shout out her violin teacher, who patiently taught her how to play the violin for 4 years. Her teacher even spent extra time with my daughter during lunch and after school to practice playing songs together for upcoming concerts.
My daughter tried new things at Clairbourn, like acting in the Shakespeare play. So much work goes on behind the scenes in preparation for this event: the student actors spend countless of hours rehearsing, the drama teachers prepare all the costumes and props, and the maintenance crew set up the stage and light fixtures. It is a collaborative effort, and everyone’s hard work really pays off in the final show.
Clairbourn also prepares students to care about their community. The school organized the elementary student choir to visit and perform at Sunrise Senior Living across the street. The elderly folks were delighted to see the small kids singing Christmas carols. In another volunteering opportunity, the students had a week to ask their family and friends to donate pocket change to the Door of Hope in Pasadena. They visited the Door of Hope to donate the money they gathered and got to hear the residents talk about their lives and struggles with homelessness. The kids learned that small acts of kindness can make a big impact on people’s lives.
Thank you Clairbourn for my daughter’s well-rounded education. Go Cougars!
