My daughter attended Archgate for 6 years. Primary was good. However, during her three years of…read moreLower Elementary, there was a bully in the classroom. Things went from good to worse depending on the behavior of the girl that would bully her and bully other students. The last time I talked about this to the school principal, she said that we needed to have "grace" for the girl that was a bully. After three years of this going on, that was the expectation. So my daughter could be bullied but the expectation for her was to have "grace" give the bully the "opportunity to learn from it". This knowing that other parents had complained about the same kid for several times. Now, she's at a school that holds the students accountable and has an actual policy against bullying and does not tolerate it.

My daughter attended Archgate for 7 years. When she was in the primary program, our experience was…read moreoverwhelmingly positive. The teachers she had (Mrs. Sherwood and Mrs. Khalid) were very kind, communicative, and involved. We trusted them totally and completely, and felt safe sending our daughter to school every day despite her having multiple severe allergies. Unfortunately, once we transitioned to the elementary level, that level of communication and care declined. We were assured that her next guides would be updated with all the info about her allergies as well as where she was academically. She was assigned to the Redbud classroom, and the guides had no clue of her history. Through the next 3 years we experienced a pattern of forgetfulness, poor communication, and resistance to collaboration. When my daughter entered first grade she was advancing ahead in some areas, and by third grade she was behind, even in subjects she loved and was obsessed with. Myself and a few other parents felt as if our children were not getting individualized care (the whole point of Montessori), and there was a common theme of kids needing help and not receiving it. There were also continuous patterns of the guides not knowing what's going on with our children socially. Which compared to primary care, we didn't even have to ask questions. They knew our children as if they were their own. On top of this, the school identifies as a nut-free school, but it is not enforced once you get to elementary. We had multiple Incidences where my daughter was exposed to life threatening allergens in her own classroom, and the guides seemingly forgot she was allergic. There was no structured process for monitoring food brought in for class celebrations or snacks, and there was zero empathy or acknowledgement in their errors. As a parent of a child with serious allergies, this was incredibly alarming. We enrolled my daughter before they broke ground for the new building. We had a fantastic experience and had excellent communication with all the staff. My opinion is the school has grown too quickly without putting the right systems and oversight in place to support that growth. There appears to be a serious gap in consistency, accountability, and responsiveness... especially in the elementary program. Ultimately, there wasn't much effort in addressing what happened, so we had to make the heartbreaking decision to withdraw our daughter mid-year because we could no longer trust that her safety and emotional well-being would be protected. I share this review not out of anger, but from a deep sense of responsibility to other families, especially those with children who have health concerns. Our hope is that by sharing our experience, the school will reflect and take steps toward improving its standards of care, communication, and follow-through.

I found Apple Creek after asking for preschool recommendations in the Frisco Moms Group... and…read moreApple Creek was recommended more than ten times. Now I understand why. They provide one of the most affordable early-education programs in the entire area -- truly a fraction of what many preschools charge -- yet the quality of education is unmatched. The teachers are warm, patient, and genuinely invested in every child. The curriculum is structured, creative, and intentional, and they make learning feel fun and exciting for the kids. My child has grown so much academically and socially since starting here. We feel grateful every day that we found this little gem. If you're looking for a place that feels safe, loving, high-quality, and still affordable... Apple Creek is your only choice!!

It's hard to fully capture what Canyon Creek Day School has meant to our family…read more We've been part of this community for five years, with both of our children growing through the 2's, 3's, and 4's programs. As we prepare to say goodbye, it already feels incredibly emotional. What makes this school so special is the people. Every teacher and staff member genuinely knows and cares for each child and family. The thoughtfulness and consistency, year after year and across both of our kids, has been remarkable. Our children were given a joyful, confidence-building start, with the perfect balance of play and early academics. As we head to Greenhill School, we feel incredibly grateful for how well they've been prepared. We also found our community here. Some of our closest friendships started at this school, which says everything about the environment they've created. We are so grateful for these five years. If you're considering Canyon Creek Day School, you can feel very confident in your choice. We will miss it deeply.

My girls started attending in preschool, and like many moms, I was anxious about the transition to a new school. We are Frisco residents and make the commute to Plano daily. CCDS immediately ensured the transition was seamless. We enrolled them in the summer day camp before the fall start, and they quickly fell in love with the staff and their peers. The teachers are excellent and are attentive, nurturing, and truly invested in each child. Both of my girls have grown tremendously, not only academically but also in confidence. The lesson plans are thoughtfully designed to build strong foundational skills and prepare students to become highly capable readers by the time they graduate. My only gripe is that the school doesn't go beyond kindergarten :( I'm genuinely sad it stops there! From the cleanliness of the bright classrooms to the enrichment classes offered and the nutritious meals provided, everything feels thoughtfully curated for my girls. They are excited to go to school each day and even more excited at pickup to tell me all about it. I can tell how loved they are because every staff member knows them by name and treats us like family. If you're looking for a loving place where your child can truly thrive, look no further!

Our daughter Ishanvi has been going to Primrose School at Deerfield since November 2022 when she…read morejust turned 4. It was a lengthy process in choosing her first school and we are very pleased to have chosen Primrose. The school and the staff have been playing a significant role in the development and growth of our daughter. Over time since she joined, Isha loved going to school. Apart from the outstanding curriculum, numerous other activities like Christmas celebrations, Easter Egg Hunt, the annual graduation ceremony, etc., have piqued Isha's interest and made her appreciate the time she is spending in school. It is to be noted that the staff put in a lot of time, effort and energy into the execution of the aforementioned events that they end up being really grand, rich and thoroughly memorable experiences for students and parents alike. The school has also ensured that they strictly meet the dietary requirements of each child. The staff also do a commendable job in communicating with us about the child's daily activities, upcoming events, payment reminders and accommodating many other requests we've made. It has been a breeze communicating with Ms. Corrine, especially, and she has always been prompt, quick and always helpful in her response. Our special mention goes to Ms. Alissa. Ever since Ms. Alissa became the class teacher for Pre-K-2, Isha wasn't just happy but was excited to go to school. We, as parents, could clearly see that Ms. Alissa genuinely cared about the kids in the class, made them all feel inclusive, provided individual care to each one of them and actually wanted them to be happy & comfortable. The very manner she greets the kids in the morning not only brightens their days but ours as well. As we drop off our daughter and drive away in the morning, we feel relieved and at peace knowing that Ms. Alissa is there to take care of our daughter. We also want to thank Ms. Margie (who in Isha's words is a very sweet teacher), Ms. Shilpi, Mr. Alan (whose high-fives instantly cheer up Isha in the morning), Ms. Suzanne and Ms. Heather.

We initially loved this Primrose and started our daycare journey here. With the high staff…read moreturnover, the location quickly went downhill. The new staff began going off protocols and doing whatever they wanted to do. I witnessed an employee changing one of the infants on the playmat where the kids play when there was an available changing table, she would undress all of the kids while eating lunch instead of simply using a bib, and admittedly lied about daily documentation (specifically when and how much my child was eating). The outside play equipment was filthy and my kid would have clothes covered in dirt. We ultimately had to leave due to safety concerns.

Both of our girls have gone to Schoolhouse from only a few months old to school age (over 8 years)…read more The Schoolhouse staff have become a part of our family, and we knew from our first tour that this was the place we wanted our kids to be. The care, love, and education my kids have received has been unparalleled. Not only were my kids well prepared for grade school, but they were also equipped with the knowledge of what Jesus did for them on the cross. We will continue to use Schoolhouse for afterschool care and their wonderful Summer program for as long as they will let us! The Summer program is such a God-send, since we don't have to run all over town, carting kids to multiple week long camps. Instead, they have the consistency of care, weekly fun field trips, and time to swim in their on site pool (with life guard). Overall, we couldn't be more happy with our experience with Schoolhouse. Schoolhouse is the place for your kids to be if you love Jesus and want your child enriched by a loving and caring staff/environment!

I was so worried because this was their first time out of their comfort zone (different culture, food, and language!) However, the teachers went above and beyond in transitioning my kids. Kids always came home happy and that was the huge indicator to me. The management is very receptive and open to feedback. They keep all parents informed of current events and policies in school. Teachers put so much care and effort into their work and daily reports. They always have exciting and creative activities for the kids. My kids have learned so much since they started. And the cost is extremely affordable! Parents of multiple kids really appreciate it!

We have seen him grow academically and on the social front since he started attending Alpha. We loved the way Rupali mam cared for each child individually and all the preparations she did for each event so that the kids and their family could have a great time. Rupali always ensures that all the concerns (even minor ones) were addressed promptly. Really appreciate her support. Each and every teacher, with whom we have been interacted are really aswesome. We would like to specially mention Miss Amanda and Miss Michelle, who were always there to help the kids much comfortable in the school and they always used to ensure that the kids are really happy and not feeling any kind of issues. We still remember the initial days, Miss Amanda used to carry him and do her work eventhough she was busy. Thanks a lot for your love and care. We would highly recommend Alpha Montessori for anyone who wants to provide a real happy and caring environment for their children pre-school years along with the right academic environment for them to learn.

They are fed so well throughout the day and have learned so much already in just 3 months! My kids come home telling me words they have learned in Spanish or ASL. They get to do technology, have a fun play area called town square, a gym with fun equipment, and multiple play areas for outside time. Even on weekends my son asks if he can go back to school the next day. TLC's hours are awesome and even offer parent's night out! I am happy we chose to come back to TLC after my time off work.
