We love Oakwood Academy (preschool). Our son joined in October of 2025 as a 2.5 year old. The…read moreschool is very clean and organized with processes that support safety, stability and care for the kids. My son has already learned so much in less than 6 months. I love that they post the lesson plan so you can reinforce the learning at home. There is a lot of communication through the Class Dojo app and postings at school. He also was potty trained fully in 2 months which I was more than happy to pay the extra $25-30 a week for that guidance. They have fun activities like field trips, Christmas recitals, special guests like firemen, dentists, etc. He LOVES his teachers, Ms. Cynthia and Ms. Khalifa and we do too! They really understand each child and their personality nuances. I can share what is happening at home and they help guide and reinforce behavior changes at school. It takes a village to raise a child and I'm so thankful to have Oakwood Academy as part of mine!

L and a 7 year old student. Instead of them helping us they just kept defending the staff member acting like my husband didn't see what he saw. The kept asking if we had evidence and that's not okay. I am not going to wait for my child to be next in order for me to get evidence so that we can finally be taken seriously. This is just a small part of the conversation that we were able to capture and in the video you can hear that they know of the student being on top of the staff being physical.

I'm not sure how someone can leave a review in regards to the condos next door being projects…read more That is a pretty dumb to say when one condo probably cost more than the hut they live in. I only say this because I own a condo next door to this elementary and it is by far a "project". From what I've seen and from actual comments from parents in my area, it's a great school. The campus looks clean. The parking lot is usually pretty maintained. No weird people just walking around. The traffic is a one way of flow that works for the school and for the home owners around. That uneducated comments that is just one big run on paragraph with multiple grammatical errors is probably a sore parent that didn't get their way and are probably the parents they speak about. Given the writing of a 3rd grader I'd have to say that comment is irrelevant and Ludacris to say the least.

Over the past five years, our children have been met with love, patience, and a true dedication to their growth. The teachers and staff are among the most devoted educators I have ever seen. They don't just teach--they nurture, guide, and partner with parents in the most thoughtful way. Their holistic approach meets kids exactly where they are, helping them not only to learn but to love learning. What I appreciate most is how much the school truly cares about the kids as whole human beings. It's more than academics--it's about building confidence, fostering creativity, and cultivating empathy. If you are looking for a school where your child will be seen, valued, and supported in every way, Maple Village Waldorf School is a rare gem. We feel incredibly lucky to be part of this community.
