Araceli Ramirez, the director of this school, ran over my girlfriend at this location's parking lot around 2:50pm, April 12, 2024.
She hit her, bumped her onto the hood of the car, and drove a little ways with her on it before she fell off.
She then drove away without a word.
We are trying to obtain security camera footage for the event described above and/or legal support.
Anyone, please help.

I went to tour this school with my toddler I actually was interested on having him attend prior to getting there and having the tour but Araceli rub me the wrong way and when I discussed what there tuition showed online she tried telling me different and I was okay with the change in price. But I think after be addressing that she used it against me and tell me it’s full, But prior to calling and scheduling they had opening and then after tour and talking to her she said she would call me in two weeks to have my child enrolled but she never did. I felt like he being the only minority there wasn’t going to be good either due to she gave me weird vibes. But it worked out I really didn’t like the fact it’s one big room with all ages of kids mixed up. I don’t see how they can learn or even get the attention they needed.

My daughter and son attended BCMA for over two years and they both had great experience and got warm care and love from all teachers. They always told me "I miss school" when I picked them up. They had good time with good friends. I could see how they spent time in the school via app. Not only enriched education (especially we could see their improvement of writing skill since 2 years old), but also gaining sociality with friends - plus teachers encouraged and helped my son's potty training so he could complete it before 3.5 years old.Teachers must have had hard work during covid pandemic, but they always welcomed students and provided with great program.My husband and I really really appreciate all teachers' contributions to our kids, and recommend this wonderful school.

They didn't have a chinese teacher since last year and been using video to teach chinese to kids. One day when I picked up my daughter around 12pm, I saw kids are running around and stepping on their beds with shoes on. Good thing my daughter is not taking her nap in there. We decided not to continue and move on with another preschool.

This school has great teachers and curriculum. Kiddo loves going to school ever since starting at 2. At 5 years old, he gets homework and always excited to start working on them at home. Since COVID, they asked to bring warmed lunch in thermos or cold lunch as they do not heat up food individually

BCMA is the Best Montessori school in Alhambra. The Teachers are very loving and caring. They provide a very safe and friendly environment for children. My DD thrived at the school, she loved the teachers and her friends. We moved from Alhambra and unfortunately we had to take her out of the school. She misses are friends and teachers very dearly. Ms Mendy, Ms Diana and Ms Aracely are lovely teachers. I highly recommend this school.

My daughter loved it here! We were so grateful that they were able to operate safely through the pandemic.The teachers, Ms Aracely, Ms Mandy, Ms Diana, and Ms Lisa, are affectionate and attentive. They offer weekly Spanish and Mandarin lessons, and the school offers an app with daily picture updates showing what your child is doing and working on.I loved their flexibility and support of celebrating birthdays, holidays, etc. Although we couldn't have the holiday dance recital in person due to COVID, it was clear the teachers and students had put a lot of effort in, and they shared an adorable video of their performance.Additionally, they were very accommodating with kids who are going through potty training, which I've found to be a rarity in preschools. (Many other schools require kids to already be potty trained.)

My two daughter has been attending Bright Children Montessori Academy for almost 6 months, and she loves her teachers and classmates! They have been very responsible in managing a safe environment for the children throughout the pandemic.I love that the school keeps parents up to date with daily communication through the app and helps with potty training. They've also done a great job of bringing joy and celebration to the classroom, despite COVID.

This preschool is conveniently located near the Freeways 10, 710 and 60. The teachers are very loving and caring towards the children. I attended their latest graduation ceremony and they were showing the children’s accomplishments in regard to Montessori, Math, Piano, and dances and songs in Mandarin and Spanish. They open at 7 am and close at 6 pm, which is ideal for working parents.

My Son attended BCMA for 2 years. We were nervous at first since this was his first time attending school, but the staff put us at ease. Our Son enjoyed learning Mandarin, Spanish and Piano lessons. We recommend BCMA.

We are so happy to have found this school 3 years ago. My son looks forward to going everyday. The teachers and staff at BCMA are very caring and attentive. They provide Spanish, Mandarin and piano as part of their weekly curriculum. I highly recommend this school! It is a hidden gem.

My daughter loves going to school here! In addition to Spanish, Mandarin, and piano lessons others have mentioned, she is also enrolled in the additional dance and gymnastics lessons and loves them. Her cognitive and social development have progressed rapidly during the short time she has attended. The staff are loving and attentive. I highly recommend this school.

BCMA has exceeded my expectations in regards to its attention to care, diversity of activities, and academics. The staff is warm and attentive with all the kids. In just a few months, my daughter learned to write and work with numbers in ways I never imagined, and the fact that she's also learned Mandarin, Spanish, and piano is fantastic. They are also very inclusive, paying attention to non-mainstream cultural teachings so that kids can be aware of the diversity of the people around them. I enthusiastically recommend this place to prepare your kids for kindergarten.
