I've been so pleased with the ELC program for my 4 year old. The staff and teachers are better than any school I've experienced in a few cities. When my son was out the week before Christmas with the flu, the teacher called him personally to cheer him up and a staff member hand-delivered his artwork and a personal gift for him that the class received. Talk about dedication and compassion! I would move here again just to watch him blossom again in this program.

A wonderful school full of amazing teachers and staff who care very much for the kids and the education they are receiving. It is a welcoming, loving, fun, structured and safe environment for children and their families. We could not be happier with Consolidated.

There is only way to describe Consolidated AMAZING. Maybe we just got lucky because our daughter has probably the best teacher around. The teacher is so engaging with the children, she is so animated, bubbly and fun. Her passion for children shines and she can often be heard saying things like "I love my babies". She isn't kidding, she really treats these kids as if they are her own. My daughter has come so far this year and it is without a doubt due to the dedication of the staff at Consolidated. They are so welcoming to parents who want to be involved and at the same time I have never felt judgement for not being able to volunteer as much as I would like.

Great School. Our son loves going to school. Teachers are friendly, kind and caring. Small classrooms allow for individual attention and great learning environment. Very good experience so far, our child is in the first grade and even with a new young teacher we are very impressed.

Definitely hit or miss with teacher ability. Our first year here our son went to kindergarten. Wonderful teacher and very engaging. This year with our first grade teacher is a complete travesty. The teacher does not allow for parents to participate and does not welcome help in the classroom. Near to the point of keeping the classroom quarantined. Our son is extremely bright, and will challenge adults he encounters mentally. Perhaps the teacher is threatened by this but seems to isolate him out and provide minimal interaction. There is a color coding "behavioral assessment" which she employs daily, even after numerous parents in the class have criticized her for it. No basis given for good performance and engagement, and is strictly punitive. Stated several times that she will eliminate it and as of yet has not. Reading learning needs to be done at home, as she never seems to read with our son at school. States on a regular basis that she does, but daily our son states she did not again today. It is sad that for a First grade teacher to not seem engaged or even excited to teach these wonderful character filled children. A complete undoing of our kindergarten experience to date.

Consolidated School is fantastic! I have a 4yr old son that goes there, and the teachers are patient and kind. They get down on his level and that makes a huge difference. He actually looks forward to going to school! I would recommend this school to anyone and everyone!
