This place has nothing like the website advertise no foreign language they have outdated computers everything there is old. Other private schools offer lunch programs here they don't offer a lunch program or offer a microwave. The 3 and 4-year-old program accepts daycare vouchers they will provide breakfast but not lunch. Every daycare my child attend voucher or not they provided breakfast and lunch. Some of the teachers are ok. The only good thing about this school is Mr. Johnson and him teaching the children about God. The school in the middle of a pandemic raised the tuition and only provided a month's notice after parents complained and asked for a meeting. If you want to pay for a school where it's outdated, not too clean, you are never notified about anything until maybe last minute, no school nurse, no programs to help advance your child, and 2 raggedy after-school programs dance and karate. Dance is the same 2 step every performance and karate he comes sometimes but if you don't pay attention they will charge you while not paying him because he didn't show. Overall the school isn't worth it. Try other private schools and public, in the end, you get what you pay for and all they want here is money. Only people kids who stay until 5th grade is member chidden and the 5th grade only has like 5- 10 kids in it. Before going ask a parent who child has been here in the last 4 years and they will tell you it's a no. Bad attuited from some teachers and staff including the principal. DON'T DO IT!!!!! If any 5-star post comes its because the principal asked people to say good things about them

Very pleased with this school thus far. The principal is not a micromanager, she is very engaging and supportive of the teachers (something you should expect from a leader). I especially like the small class sizes!

We were REALLY disappointed with this school. The schedule and curriculum planed for our 3 year old was great, but the interaction between teacher and student combined with the teacher-to-student ratio is awful! The classroom is girl-centered. The teacher would NOT provide feedback on our child's progression, and the professionalism of the staff is non-existent. Would NOT recommend school to persons with active children. Have a lot more to say, but will keep the really negative comments minimal.
