"This school offers everything a private school does. There is a true sense of community and all the parents get very excited and involved. Being a charter they are able to put money to the best use. Principal Martinez is innovative, dedicated and filled with enthusiasm every day. My children are so happy here. Wish it went past fifth grade!"

"In response to the previous review, our daughter went K-6 at this school and we always felt she was in safe environment. She's at a private school now and their check-in policy is exactly the same as at Carpenter. I've visited other schools with friends whose kids go to them and at no elementary school, public or private, has anyone ever checked my ID. Maybe it's a high school thing."

"Carpenter is a wonderful school that fosters a love of learning in the children and a great sense of community for the families. Mr. Martinez, the principal, is incredibly caring and committed to the students. The amazing and very active parent body fund a superb enrichment program. I only wish that Carpenter went up to 12th grade! This is a phenomenal school! We are very happy to be here."

"Top notch public school. Involved parents who volunteer time and money and Mr. Martinez is a terrific principal. Most of the teachers at Carpenter are dedicated to their profession and love the kids which makes it feel like a small community that is a pleasure to attend. My son had a wonderful kindergarten year and especially loved all the enrichment classes, including science and music made possible by PFC. Get involved with the school if you are lucky enough to attend this gem."

"I am very proud to be associated with Carpenter Community Charter; it has far exceeded my expectations. My daugter loves school thanks to the kind, loving and supporting staff. Her Kindergarten teacher was the best and has truly prepared my child to enter the real world of elementary school; she was tough and loving! She provided the structure and guidance K'ers need to enter the fast pace world of 1st grade and beyond. The Principal is the best! He truly cares for the kids and is the school's #1 advocate! Parent involvement fantastic and makes this school a joy to attend."
