    If you have a child with any type of learning disability or a child with an established IEP,…read more Tender Loving Kare is NOT the place for your child. Their instructors are not equipped to deal with any child other than perfect children. Their instructors fail to follow simple instructions from parents regarding their children. They have you pay for field trips at the beginning of the summer and then demand chaperones for the "difficult" children, not caring if parents and grandparents work! With the amount of money they bring in every week, they can afford to hire instructors that have experience in dealing with children with learning disabilities and not just teenagers fresh out of high school and college with a basic certificate in early childhood education! Shame on TLK for shaming working parents of kids who have established IEPs that tell you how things work best for that child, they don't even read them! Shame on TLK for their lack of communication between their instructors and administration! I used to rave about TLK, not anymore, i will tell anyone who will listen about how uncompassionate, inconsiderate and overpriced they are!

    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.

    This school knows what it's doing. Established in 1927, they have years of experience. It's loving…read moreand warm, yet structured and maintains a high academic standard.
