Disappointed, we have been looking around for a private school for my 5 year old son. We called to…read moreget information and a possible tour, my husband got in touch with I believe the admissions lead. Her immediate tone about our son previously attending a public school for preschool came off condescending, basically saying he would not be able to keep up with the curriculum.

We couldn't be more pleased with the staff and teachers of Bayer. Our oldest daughter has been…read moreenrolled at Bayer for 3 years beginning with the PreK 3 program, she will be starting the 1st grade this fall. Her reading, writing, math, and problem-solving comprehension are extremely advanced for a 6-year-old. The teachers she has had in the 3 years she's been at Bayer have all been great to work with. They are committed to their kids, and their success. I can't speak to the negative comments regarding this school. But as a parent of a child going into first grade and of one going into the PreK 3 program this fall, I would recommend this school to anyone who is willing to put in the work to be successful. Bayer is a challenging school, the teachers and curriculum ask a lot of the kids and their parents. If you are not willing to work hard with your child and show them how to work hard, they will not have a good time. Our daughter has learned the value of putting in work and seeing the payoff. I think in today's world, teaching respect, hard work and discipline are very important. These are things that a child barely out of Kindergarten is learning. This is a great school, and I am excited to watch our children grow and learn here.

Thank you, thank you! We are so grateful we found BSP in 2021 as visiting other places left us uneasy. However, walking into BSP and meeting Ms Carmela and the other amazing teachers, left us with a sense of relief. Then when our kids started, the teachers kindness/support towards all the children and staff's great communication with parents only reinforced our decision. Both our kids graduated from BSP! Our most recent just this last Fall. Our kids loved their teachers and friends. It's like a little family that was created with the kids and parents.

I've been going back and forth for about three months whether or not to post a review. And honestly…read moreit was out of fear of what the preschool would do to my child but I hope this review can save another parent and child from the heartbreak it has caused my family. I have spent this summer rebuilding my son's confidence and self esteem to remind him that he is an amazing boy I'll prefece this review with my son tested gifted and was diagnosed with ADHD. However a lot of the "behaviors" are typical for a 4/5 year old as I've been told by two different child psychologists, our pediatrician, and an OT. As the parent of a young child, I enrolled my son in this Peace Lutheran preschool hoping for a compassionate, developmentally informed environment. While the school presents itself as nurturing and structured, our experience revealed a concerning lack of understanding and preparedness among the teaching staff and administration for supporting children that may not fit the "box". One of the most difficult aspects of our time here was realizing that the staff--though well-meaning--lacked basic training in managing and engaging with children who exhibit ADHD-related behaviors. Rather than using strategies I shared with them or showing flexibility, teachers frequently responded to my son's impulsivity and energy with frustration or disciplinary measures that did not address the root of the behavior. There was little to no sign of inclusivity within the classroom. It became apparent that behaviors that are common in children that are neurodivergent, were labeled as misbehavior, and my child was often treated as a problem to be managed rather than a student to be supported. The lack of understanding from staff led not only to missed learning opportunities but also to a negative impact on my son's self-esteem and sense of belonging. What was most disheartening was the unwillingness to collaborate or grow. When we raised concerns and offered to share resources, the response was often defensive rather than welcomed. There was no indication that the staff or leadership were interested in seeking professional development or creating a more inclusive environment. We ultimately made the decision to leave the program, and thankfully have found a new preschool where the staff are trained, compassionate, and adaptable. My son is now thriving in an environment where his needs are met with skill and empathy. To any parent of a neurodiverse child considering this school: please proceed with caution. And to the leadership of this preschool--these children deserve better. With the right training and mindset, you could become the kind of place where all children can thrive. I sincerely hope you choose that path.

Mrs. Harpt, Mrs. Jenny, Mrs. Jessie, Mrs. Dunham, Mrs. Page, Mrs. Spade --- these are the teachers my daughter has had direct interaction with, and seriously they are WONDERFUL. I love their approach to resolving conflicts - talk it out, instead of time-outs or punishments. SUPER SMART! Mrs Harpt even has conflict resolution cards that offer different options for the kiddo to take, if s/he feels wronged. It's THE BEST. I love their focus on kindness and respect. When we aided the other day, the ratio was 5 grown-ups to 8 kids. I mean it doesn't get better than that. I also LOVE that the school offers parent aide (volunteer) opportunities that reduce tuition! So, I know all the kids at the school! Which sets my mama heart at ease knowing that my daughter interacts with all sorts of personalities. That way, she and I can discuss her interactions with friends at home, and she can directly transfer what we talk about. I have found myself in an unusual situation with my husband becoming ill, and the directors (Joanne & Julie) and the office staff (Matt & others) have been so very kind --- I forgot my daughters shoes once, and no problem. I had an issue with some aggressive in-laws, and the staff took it very seriously ensuring that no one NOT on the pickup list would ever grab my daughter. Additionally, they have allowed my husband to tag along with me when I aide, which provides him a sense of belonging, even though he lacks capacity to completely fulfill his role in a typical way. The staff and directors are tremendously empathetic, kind, non-reactive, respectful, and truly lovely to interact with. When I can donate or volunteer, I feel HONORED to do so! Whereas in other areas of my life, it can feel like a burden or resentment.... not SSP - It's a really magical place that fills my heart. I have found a family in SSP! (which says a lot since we moved away from family & friends 3 years ago!)

All the teachers are amazing and you can tell they really care about your child and provide such individualized support for each student. My kiddo had never been in any type of preschool or extracurricular classes before he started here last year and I was really worried how'd he'd adjust but they did such a good job giving him all the tools to excel and love learning.

The indoor play area has a large train table and a castle of course. They call it Castle Time. The children are given free range of the dress-up clothes and of course the castle! My four year old has learned so much in such a short amount of time. He can write his name, sing songs and much more. I am very pleased with the faculty here and the care they give my little one.
