Terrible school. Bad director. Does not listen to parents concerns. She is a good liar! The infant and toddler teachers do the bare minimum. Its all about money for the school! Parents BEWARE OF THIS SCHOOL! read more

Fantastic pre-school my son has attended full time since he was 2 including camp and will be graduating this summer from Pre-K. We love the staff- this is not a daycare - truely a school. Every teacher he has been placed with has been the perfect blend of caregiver/ teacher that he has needed based on his age and progress. They have helped me to raise a responsible intelligent caring boy and I couldn't be more thankfull! read more

Our experience at Discovery preschool was a nightmare. I saw all the negative reviews online and choose to ignore them and boy was I wrong. This school is very close to our house and ways always recommended on Boca Moms Facebook page which is why we chose it. From day one something didn't feel right to me, but against my better judgement I sent my daughter for two months thinking it was just in my head. To start, they advertise media, gym, and music three days a week. Gym never happened in the two months we were there, music happened once and media consisted of the kids going to a different classroom for a different teacher to read them a book. Everything listed on their website under Enrichments & Extracurricular Activities, never happened. A complete joke! They do not follow the schedule they provide you. Everyday when I picked my daughter up, the kids on the playground were running wild while teachers talked amongst themselves not watching the children. One day I saw a teacher grab a little girls face and say "look at me, I didn't like that!". In the window of another class I saw a teacher snatching things from a small child aggressively and walk awhile as the child cried hysterically. I walked in to my daughter class when the teacher didn't know I was there to her grabbing my daughter arm to keep her at circle time even though she was just getting up because she saw me. Just an overall feeling of nastiness and no love throughout the entire school. Additionally, the classroom was dirty, smelled and my child who never got sick was sick the entire two months of being there along of several other kids in the class. For the life of me I couldn't understand why anyone would recommend this place. All this alone would be reason to pull my daughter out of this school but unfortunately this was nothing compared to how my daughter was treated. Now to get into the truly inexcusable things that happened to my daughter. This was her first school experience. She is 3 and had been home with a nanny during the day while mommy and daddy worked. She was excited to go to school, excited to be a big girl and went relatively happily for the first couple of weeks. She is a very sensitive little girl and very shy, she takes awhile to get comfortable with new people and she is very attached to mommy. Naturally she cried at drop off which I thought was normal but would say she had a fun day. Something shifted a few weeks in and she was terrified to go to school. She started telling me school is scary and it's really not good. Telling me she never wants to see her screaming teachers again. She started to play school at home and reenact the day and she would be the teacher, she'd yell and get mad and say things like what is wrong with you, stop crying or you'll go to the baby room. She started grabbing my face and say look at me, you listen to me, I am very mad at you! I am the teacher, I make the rules! All very out of character for my sweet little girl and very alarming behavior. Turns out the teachers had no patience for a little girl who cried at drop off, missed mommy during the day and who was sensitive and got her feelings hurt easily. They would scream at her because she was crying, threaten her with being sent to the baby room and tell her mommy and daddy weren't coming back. They shamed her by saying look at your friends they aren't crying why are you? They told her something was wrong with her, told her to cry all she wanted they aren't buying it. They scared her, all because she this was her first time away from home and it was hard for her. Instead of doing their jobs and gaining her trust and building her confidence and help her make friends and enjoy school and learn they bullied her and ruined her first school experience. They tried to break my sweet innocent, happy, loving little girl. Treating a young child or any child like this is damaging and detrimental to their development. It's sickening and disgusting and heartbreaking. To me this is child abuse, God only know what else is happened. Please think twice and don't make the same mistake I did and send your child to this school and if you do attend this school please make sure this isn't happening to your child. Don't ignore your intuition, be your child's advocate, I wish I would have acted sooner than I did. read more

We have only good things to say about Discovery Preschool in Boca. My daughter is getting ready to leave the school to attend kindergarten. I wish she could stay and continue here! My second child will be attending next year! All the teachers and staff treat the children as if they were their own! Very loving and caring environment. School is very clean and keep the children safe. I checked out a bunch of preschools prior to picking this one and couldn't compare! Even though this preschool was more expensive than most it's worth spending a little more to know your child is at a great place. They also don't overcrowd the class rooms which was a big plus for me. As for the negative reviews people posted about this school , they seem to have a negative attitude about other things they posted on yelp. Take that into consideration when you read their reviews . read more

This school was a nightmare for us as parents and for my daughter! Very bad supervision, very unprofessional and unpleasant teachers and a sophisticated liar director! read more

Sent both of my children to discovery from 2009 to 2017. I experienced nothing but love and affection by every teacher there. The turnover rate for teachers there is very little and it's because they are a family. Both of my kids graduated gifted and more advanced than most first graders and I attribute that to the amazing teachers. They are very aware of a child's emotional needs and are never reluctant to hug or kiss your child and treat them as if they were their own! I still consider the women there to be our extended family and will always be grateful for the love they gave my babies when I couldn't be there for them. read more

This is a very bad school. They treat the children bad and the teachers are awful. Do not bring your children here. Teachers talk bad about the students. read more
