My child enrolled in aftercare for this school in 2010. The halls smell like urine and the PM snacks they provide is often just a child's size handfull of dry goods and not even a serving of fruit. The worst part is management. Parents BEWARE! I was told that aftercare would cover all school holidays, snow days and half days. It does cover these days but only from 3-6pm (the hours of the aftercare). If you want your child to attend for the entire day during holidays, snowdays or early release days it's EXTRA. Another issue I had is I dropped my child from full time to partime. When I spoke with the VP she said to take the tuition amount and divide it by the days the child will attend. Seven months later they claimed I wasn't paying the right tuition amount. The WORST part... instead of discussing the issue directly with me they went straight to a collection agency. Make sure you get everything in writing from these people if you're desparate for child care. Otherwise, GO SOMEPLACE ELSE.
LOVE this school. My 2 year old daughter loves it as well. It's a warm and caring environment. Even teachers that don't teach my daughter know her name (not sure how the teachers know all the kids names!). She has really grown since starting there and I feel like I'm leaving her in a family like environment everyday. So glad we found this school.
The curriculum is the right balance of education and play. It is refreshing to see a preschool that allows a kid to be a kid. Half way through the school year my daughter is potty trained, knows all her letters, counts to 20 in English/Spanish, shows an interest is reading, and best part is she also gets to enjoy playtime. Children need to have unstructured playtime to allow their brains to develop properly. A lot of the places I visited during my search for school treated the child as if he/she was starting at Yale in a year. They have am and pm care, provide lunch, and are open almost all the time (even during snow weather). My favorite thing is that they have a librarian that read to the kids and instills the joy of books. The Principle is a warm person and is always respective to complaints and suggestions. I have been very happy with all the staff and teachers. The school offers extra activities for a fee if you would like to have your child participate in sports, ballet, yoga, etc. What a gem.
The assistant principal, teachers and staff are great, but I found the principal to be a very unpleasant person. She ignores parents' requests, messages and can be rude at times. Very surprising and disappointing.
