I…read morehave been actively visiting various preschools and childcare centers in search of the best environment for my two-year-old son. Throughout this process, I have encountered several programs that did not meet my standards or expectations. Adventure School, however, stood out as a refreshing and reassuring exception. Although I did not have a scheduled appointment, I was warmly welcomed by Sarah, who immediately made me feel at ease. She took the time to understand what I was looking for and kindly offered to show me the two-year-old classroom. The teacher in that room was attentively seated with a child who appeared to be waking up or had just arrived, while the other children played calmly within her line of sight. Importantly, the classroom was in ratio--something I've found to be lacking in many other centers. The environment was calm, organized, and engaging. The walls displayed children's artwork, the classroom was rich in print, and materials were thoughtfully arranged without being overwhelming. A child-sized bathroom was located within the classroom, providing convenient access for potty-trained children. Throughout the tour, I asked detailed questions about teacher-to-child ratios, daily schedules, tuition, meals, hours of operation, and more. Sarah was able to answer all my inquiries thoroughly and without hesitation. She also discussed classroom transitions and walked us through the three-year-old room. Before that, she allowed my son to explore the outdoor play area, which included developmentally appropriate toys and climbing structures. We also had a meaningful conversation about early intervention, including AzEIP and Child Find, and how the school supports children who may be experiencing developmental delays. Sarah's knowledge and genuine commitment to supporting all children were clearly evident. Sarah's demeanor was warm, professional, and consistent throughout the visit. Despite spending a significant amount of her time with us, Sarah never appeared rushed or inconvenienced. This was a stark contrast to the reception I've received at several other centers. Upon leaving, I immediately contacted a friend who is also searching for a preschool and strongly recommended she consider Adventure School, despite the distance. Had the location been closer to our home and workplace, and the cost more manageable for our budget, I would have enrolled my son on the spot. Based on my experience, I have full confidence that he would be safe, supported, and nurtured in this environment.

The employees that are currently employed there do not meet the physical, emotional, ethical, or intellectual standards for developing children to model. There is no curriculum and the bare minimum of effort is done to provide a productive environment. There is no structure to the day despite what you may be told. The children are left to their own devices to play with dirty donated toys in a Lord of the Flies-like setting. The Director and another member of staff have been at this facility for 20 years, which is longer than most marriages, and have a deeply unethical and unprofessional relationship. They will cover up and obscure wrongdoing at your child's expense. They speak poorly of the children and their parents when being in no condition to look down on anyone. This institution is not a childcare development center; rather, it is a petty fiefdom that is lorded over by individuals who are lazy in the realm of physical fitness, emotional development, and general ethics. If you care at all about the well-being of your child and their capacity to develop into a productive adult that contributes positively to humanity, do not send your child here. As a strong believer in evidence and empiricism when visiting the institution, I encourage you to observe the individuals and environment for yourself to verify that what is being claimed here is true. For your child's sake heed this warning. There are other institutions with ethical, knowledgeable, and motivated staff that will enrich your child and put them on the path towards success.

Our experience, From the first day I observed Miss. Clark…read moreat orientation I felt as if she were a bit guarded as an individual. As time went on and I observed her teaching in the classroom I began to see a teacher who lacked a smile and genuine happiness with children. I recall the very first day I volunteered she failed to introduce herself as any teacher would therefore I introduced myself, I felt that was a bit odd. The first meeting we all had about my child and his struggles she didn't say much and had her arms crossed the entire time as if she was upset. Body language expressed so much without any words needed. When she decided to share her opinion it was only the negative and with no constructive ideas on how to help. I couldn't understand the defensiveness and anger, as this meeting wasn't about her and her teaching. From our last meeting I then realized Miss. Clark disliked my child and had absolutely no interest in helping him. I will always recall my child's last day at Redeemer being a negative one. That Tuesday I walked in very excited to volunteer, that changed dramatically. I was taken back in how she cornered my child telling him he was liar several times until his eyes begin to tear. She still went on, even when he was truly not being deceptive, she only cornered and embarrassed him. My child was unable to complete the task due to his learning disabilities which she was well aware of, others would view that as bulling. Then Miss. Clark made my child feel as if he had sinned intentionally and in gods eyes is viewed as a sinner is so very hurtful. Children are too very precious and innocent and need compassion from their teachers, it's a requirement.
