My son went here for a little over two years. If my wife did not have to relocate because of a new…read morejob opportunity, we most likely would have kept him at this location until he was ready to begin kindergarten. The owner, Ms. Cindy, is very kind and reasonable. In addition, she is very knowledgeable in regards to early childhood education and has years of experience in the field. When he began attending this school, he was in the young toddlers classroom, before moving to older toddlers and then Get Set, which prepares three year olds for preschool. His most recent teacher, Ms. Kim, is a gem. She's been at the school for over 10 years and it is very apparent that she loves what she does. She's not one of those teachers who views it as a job to collect a paycheck. She obviously has a passion for working with toddlers, which is what you want when you're sending your toddler to a facility and you're relying on others to attend to them for 6-8 hours a day. When we were having issues with potty training, she gave us valuable tips that we practice successfully to this day. She also taught my son Spanish, among many other valuable things. If we could take her with us, we would. She is the epitome of what you want in a teacher at an early childhood learning center. While enrolled at the school, my son had an accident in which he broke his foot. I was irate as none of the teachers were able to explain how it happened. Ms. Cindy worked with us and we did not have to pay a dime for the medical expenses. There were a few other little mishaps that can be experienced at any childcare center. For example, we would send him with breakfast in bowls labeled with his name and during one week, not one bowl came home. This was frustrating because parents are required to label their child's belongings and you expect said belongings to be returned. The tuition is a bit costly and food is not provided. It's something to be mindful of if you're thinking about enrolling your child.

Long story short - it's a decent place. It's welcoming when you walk in, they try with the decorations and the building is pretty nice. I haven't personally explored the nooks and crannies to confirm the other two reviews, but I don't doubt their authenticity. They max out adult/children ratios, so it's not surprising the staff doesn't have time to see clean. On that same note, I try to be a pretty understanding mom when it comes to the daily burdens the staff endures. That being said, it's allergy season and for some reason, even after asking the staff directly via morning check-in paperwork - they still leave my babes nose crusted. It's pretty disappointing. Picture attached. I'd still recommend it. I feel like she's safe and they're not neglectful per se. But they could do with a more personal touch/investment

That was until I had a son in 2023. I instantly knew I wanted my son to attend LTA as they had played such a pivotal role in my daughter's learning process. When I made my first outreach they were completely full and had no spots at the time. So, I waited and one random day I went to the school and Ms. Ginatay was so pleasant, she provided me with all the information needed for enrollment and we arranged a walk through even though I was already familiar with the school there were some new faces and few changes that had taken place over the years. My son began his first day of pre-k this past September and I am completely satisfied with the level of care they provide to my child. Ms. Mijae, & Ms. Ebony are amazing, they are so patient with their class, and I have watched first hand as they multitask and meet each child's need. I am so thankful to have a safe place to send my child and know that they are also receiving quality care and great education.

Since she saw her little friends using the potty, one day she just decided she was done with diapers and we never looked back. Ms. Jo told us the first night of parent-teacher night that she'd be potty trained before she left that classroom, and she sure was. Today she is in the pre-K program, has had many of the same little friends for two years now, and also does very well at TLK. We highly recommend the TLK pre-school and daycare program.

Immaculate Conception School was a huge disappointment in every way. I'm very thankful my child no…read morelonger attends this horribly sad excuse for a Christian environment. The principal and teachers do nothing to protect students from bullying, and the education they provide is inferior to the local public schools. If they feel like you're not worthy of being in their clique, they'll do whatever it takes to get rid of you. When my own child began to be bullied though, I was reminded of an experience there. I distinctly remember one of the days I volunteered at recess witnessing a middle school girl being bullied. The girl was sitting down crying on the bench and 2 other girls were pointing at her, whispering, and very obviously making fun of her. I went over to comfort the girl, sat down and began talking with her. She confessed to me that she was tormented daily by all the girls in her class and some of the boys. I asked her what they made fun of her about and she responded that some days were not as bad as others, (which was heartbreaking) but that every single day she was the brunt of their jokes. She said they teased her about her hair, her shoes, her height, her weight, basically anything & everything. She lamented that all she wanted was for them to like her. It was the saddest thing. I then asked if she had told any teachers or the principal about the bullies. She responded that she told them everyday, and her mom complained a lot too, but said the school did nothing and they were sick of hearing about it. I assumed she was just upset & being a little dramatic, but after she walked away, one of the teachers who had witnessed me comforting her approached me and thanked me for talking to the girl. I smiled and said, "you're welcome," happy to know a teacher noticed and cared. I was then shocked by what this teacher said next. This woman then shook her head, ROLLED HER EYES and said, "yeah, thanks for dealing with it this time because we have to hear it from her EVERY day!" The teacher stalked off and I was left flabbergasted by her callous statement and apathetic attitude. ICS likes to refer to themselves as, "The ICS Family." They also love to call themselves, "the little school with the BIG heart." That is such a fallacy, it's almost laughable. Almost, if it weren't so sad. Truth be told, joining the school and paying the same exact tuition as everyone else should be enough to be treated the same as everyone else. But at ICS, paying tuition and volunteering like everyone else is not enough to be treated like a member of their "family." If your child has any type of health problems, learning problems (even ADHD), or if they struggle in certain subjects, ICS teachers, along with the principal, Mrs. Dinkle make you feel at best, like a burden, and at worst, unwelcome and like your child doesn't belong. Instead of having patience with your children, they prefer to simply document everything. To be clear, my child never had a single behavioral or disciplinary issue, but she needed individual help often with math. This was frequently complained about by her teachers. And if you have the audacity to speak up when your family is being treated unfairly or to complain when a teacher makes rude, snide remarks to you, they'll single you out and make you feel like an outcast until they eventually get rid of you. You'd expect some cliquishness in a private school, but the amount of snobbery at ICS is just over the top. If you're not a member of their "club," they'll ostracize you to the point where you question what you did to make them dislike you. Then finally, you realize it's them-not you. Because my family & I are longtime IC Church members, I thought being a member of the parish would be good enough for them. Honestly, most of the families there are completely oblivious to this because they fit into ICS' mold of what a perfect ICS family should be. Everyday, I witnessed families who were more financially well off be treated better than me by the administration. My child was even teased and bullied for having what was deemed by another kid as a "small" house. ICS does NOT want people to know the truth about how they treat certain families, to the extent that they actually removed the reviews tab from their Facebook page so that nobody could leave them a review! They'd rather get rid of ALL of their reviews than have the public see even ONE bad review. There are no other schools on FB without a reviews tab. That says a lot. Other schools will accept the good reviews with the bad. Not ICS though. They will accept perfection or nothing-and this is their stance on students and families in their school as well. As soon as they received a bad review on their FB page, they removed the reviews tab completely. That speaks volumes to the type of character this school has. I was also immediately unfriended on FB by several other ICS moms as soon as I posted this negative review. I offended the clique.
