I have worked at CinDay for over 20 years and my 4 children attend CinDay as well. My oldest has been there from PreK-present. My children are excited to go to school and share what they’ve learned. As a parent, I personally value the flexible learning styles, hands-on learning, and nurturing environment. I want my children to be able to move, be engaged in their learning and want to continue to their behind the classroom. CinDay continues to meet this standards each year. I am thankful for a school that thinks outside the box and prioritizes happy healthy kids.

l am a teacher at CinDay. We have amazing educators that inspire students to embrace challenges, learn from mistakes, and constantly strive for personal growth. Creating a culture of continuous learning and encouraging students to become lifelong learners are goals that CinDay is genuinely passionate about.

CinDay provides differentiated instruction in a safe and nurturing environment. The small teacher to student ratio ensures success for each student. At the Upper School, CinDay offers classes that meet the needs of the student body and students have the opportunity to take college credit courses and graduate early if desired. CinDay is a great option for individuals looking for custom class scheduling options and project based learning.

As an educator at CinDay Academy , I am privileged to be part of a truly exceptional institution that prioritizes the growth and well-being of both students and teachers alike. I wholeheartedly give CinDay a five-star rating!

My kids have had an amazing preschool-2nd grade experience. They love school and their teachers. They have learned so much, and each at their own level. I could not be more happy with CinDay.

I went to the Middle school part of if for 2019-2020 but left before the pandemic. I will say I didn't like my time here. I never got homework so that is a 1. They did do some Character things for the little kids but kinda brushed it on the older kids. The teachers are nice but they just don't know what they are doing. They are unprepared and just do what ever the "standards" say. Every one was on the same level of learning. You could be super smart and always be ahead but at this school everyone is on the same level. They never did a thing about bullying. they would just have meeting that would only say "be nice" and that was it. You could send you kid here but be warned.

Former student here who graduated about two years ago. I only went to the high school, so I can’t speak for the lower grades. If your kid is already very self-directed (i.e., will complete coursework without you monitoring them to ensure they do so) and doesn’t need a lot of help learning, then CinDay is a good fit. I enjoyed the freedom we got, but I can’t see an unfocused and/or undisciplined kid doing great. Please judge your kid honestly-don’t send them to a school if they won’t thrive. Most kids at CinDay are already smart with the work ethic of an advanced placement student. Please don’t enroll your kid if that doesn’t sound like them-your kid will probably struggle and/or be unhappy. My days went like this: I would log in and do my class work. If I had a question or was unable to figure something out, I went to a monitor for help. If you don’t think your child would be able to do that, I don’t recommend enrolling. Take all these reviews with a grain of salt. CinDay’s high school is still very new and thus undergoes changes every year. For example: you can no longer gain more privileges with a high S-Level. I was an S4, meaning I could have my cell phone with me all day if I wanted to.

My kids are thriving at CinDay. No one asked me to make this review and I’ve never felt pressure to volunteer or fundraise. I do that because I love supporting a school that supports my kids. They have one fundraiser a year with no pressure to go and that’s way less than the amount my nieces and nephews have at a public school.

We have been at the school for over 10 years and are very thankful for the education our kids are receiving. They consistently score well on standardized tests but even more important to us, they are in an environment that encourages life long learning! One commenter talked about receiving pressure to give- after more than 10 years, we have never felt pressure to give financially. We have done so when our budget allowed but never felt we were treated differently when it didn’t allow. Also, I have never felt pressured to review the school and happened upon this site and wanted to share our experience!

We loved most of the teachers at CinDay, but unfortunately our children were falling behind in academics, especially in math. They had a hard time catching up when they went to public schools. Cinday is a nice environment, but our children got a watered-down education there.

Don’t believe the hype (and school requested parent reviews). Your child’s education is one of the most important choices you’ll ever make. Do your own research and homework. Ask for verified school-wide test averages. Ask hard questions about math and science curriculum. Ask about the administration’s educational background and continuing education. Ask for school violence or conflict policy and procedures. Talk to parents who’ve left the school and ask why. And you likely won’t even need my review after all of that.

CinDay Academy has been such a blessing for our family. We have been here for 6 years. My children mostly home schooled before this, and the transition was smooth to come here. Our kids have found good friends, and their teachers invest in them inside and outside of school hours. My children are discovering their academic strengths, life interests, and learning styles. They are being challenged to learn at their level, regardless of their peer’s levels.

When I think of what I want for my children as they grow up, I can think of no better place for them to spend their days. Today's student is growing up in a world that is changing rapidly and CinDay offers an education that matches that. Students are taught how to work together as a team; how to communicate in front of an audience; how to add creativity and critical thinking to their work. There's no teaching to the test- an outdated and ineffective way to educate our kids. My kids all have very different needs and each one of them is growing as a learner and as a person at CinDay.

I am a former student at the CinDay Academy. The school doesn't focus on math. The staff is okay, but the educational standards are pretty low. Teachers tell parents what they want to hear - it's all fluff. If you transfer schools, you will be very behind. The school tries to keep tuition low, but hounds families to donate money and hosts pushy fundraisers. In my opinion, there are better schools in the area to attend.

This school has made a huge difference for my children! It is night and day from our public school experience. My kids love school now and are excited to go every day. With project-based and interdisciplinary learning, they get more of a real-world experience and learn more comprehensive approaches to tackling problems. I also love that learning is so individualized. Students work at their own level rather than being taught to the average. CinDay Academy incorporates brain research into their curriculum and teaching methods, so learning is based on science rather than legislation - and it is working wonders with my kids! I also love the character education. Academy students are given so many opportunities to develop holistically and show leadership and get recognition for it. I can't say enough good things about the Academy - amazing extra- and co-curriculars, emphasis on life balance and wellness, incredible teachers, use of technology, fun environment, beautiful grounds and classrooms - this school has it all.

We’ve been a part of the Academy family for 12 years. Our children started in preschool and moved into the middle school program. I can’t say enough good things about the Academy. Our children thrived in the small classrooms and hands-on learning. The themed-based curriculum makes learning fun. The teachers are hands down the best! You can tell they love what they do and can see their enthusiasm for learning.

The Academy is an amazing school and we are so glad that we made the choice to send our twins there. The teachers and entire staff truly care about the children and have an obvious passion for what they do. The school is very forward thinking in regards to curriculum as well as the environment. We love the small class size as well as the individualized learning.It is so wonderful to have classes such as Spanish, Music, PE and Art starting as early as kindergarten. The parents are also very involved and take an active role in their children's education which is very nice to see. We were so thrilled to learn earlier this year that The Academy will extend through high school.

The Academy has been such an amazing school for our family. Our kids are excited to wake up and go to school everyday and see their teachers. We have been there for 4 years and are so thankful that we have found this school. We can’t imagine sending them anywhere else. The staff truly cares about the children’s well-being and is concerned with helping them achieve their full potential. We love the small classroom sizes and the individualized learning. We have nothing but great things to say about this place!
