Loma Linda Academy

Do yourself a favor and and avoid this school. Every chance they get they hit you up for more money. For instance, my child went to K-​6^th grade. Now in 7^th grade, they are charging me for an «organization class» really??? And can you believe it, they charge $ 30 per week for my child to attend «study hall» What??? It is mandatory for all students to have their books sold by «the school» they will not give you the ISBN number so you can purchase them from amazon. In fact, you are told that if you purchase the books from any other provider other than Loma Linda Academy, your student may receive a failing grade. So all in all to start 7^th grade was over $ 1000 and my next tuition is due early september. I have read other reviews on other school sites about the lack of standardization, lack of transparency for SAT scores, teachers not available to assist students after school unless there is a tutor fee and the lack of communication and consistency by the school leadership. I would have to agree with all these comments. The only reason my child is in LLA is because of a best friend. I will be pulling my child from this school. When you are not SDA, it is very difficult to help your child differentiate between what is in the Bible and what is the doctrine of the SDA church and prophet. It would be better to go to a non denominational school that would only teach the Bible. I really dont think it is the schools responsibility to tell children that if they trick or treat they are going to Hades. I really dont think that it is the school’s responsibility to tell the children that the pope is the antichrist. If you are not involved with your childs education (so you can monitor it closely), you are not SDA and therefore are charged more money for tuition and you don’t have a problem with dishing out hundreds of dollars that are not conveyed up front, then you will probably do ok at this school. Otherwise, stay away. This is our last year there.

My kids are in a different private school a few miles from here and this Summer was our first experience w/​LLA. What a wonderful experience it was. So thankful we had the opportunity. My kids will be returning next year & I will move my children to this school in the future as well. Great Summer Program!

I’m a little bit disturbed that I’m the only Unilocaler writing reviews about this school… okay, I promised LLA isn’t paying me to do this but perhaps they should come to think of it. Jk
