Good teachers, good staff, happy people never condescending. The way they get kids involved in reading is by far the best ive ever seen. My son use to get bullied in Hollister and at El roblea he was not bullied at all he was happy and making friends. It saddens me we have to move and find a new school. I would recommend this school to any friend or stranger. Their special needs program is good, if your child is gifted they will do great there and if your son is like mine who struggles with his work and to make friends this is a good place for kids like him too.

My poor 5 year old had been through so much in a short span of 5 months. 3 different schools, that the district recommended to get the correct placement for him!! You know how exhausting and scary that was for my son. He's still a baby! Anyhow came to this awful school only to have my son traumatized and mistreated the first day of school!!!!!!!! The teacher came to talk to my son to introduce herself in the morning while standing in line outside. My husband was on the phone finishing up a call, when he realized in the corner of his eye, the teacher on knee level grabbing my son viciously by his chin and said "look at me when I speak to you"!!!!!!!!! My son, as well as many others that have autism, struggle to make eye contact! She of all people should know that!!! But I guess not, this school just hires anyone! If she had the proper training she would know how to treat and approach children with autism and be patient and understanding! Heres the other kicker, the principal had her back, no consequences, no punishment what so ever for her teacher. They give consequences to all kids there, even with autism but oh NO! NOT THERE CoWORKERS! She made many excuses saying that she didn't mean it and a bunch of bs. Im like how do you know she did not mean it you were not there!!!! And stop speaking for a grown woman, you do not need to make excuses for her disgusting disrespectful behavior! Imagine what goes on behind those doors, where they are vulnerable without their parent to help them communicate No patience, or understanding for them, just anger low patience, aggression and hostility for those poor children. Horrible school do not send your child to a school like this, that can let abuse happen and look the other way! Teachers, principals, and even yard duty can be bullies too!

Little Sonshine Schoolhouse has been a blessing and treasure to our family. My twins are currently…read morein LSS Preschool and they enjoy going to school every day. They have made so many friends and love all their teachers. All of the teachers and staff have been so wonderful and accommodating. We truly feel that our children are loved , safe, and cared for. As a teacher myself, I have been more than impressed with the amount of curriculum my children have been exposed to and learned this school year. They have learned their numbers, letters, phonics, and so many lifelong learning skills all before age four. I have also noticed so many new wonderful behaviors my twins have picked up from attending LSS such as praying or thanking me for the food before they eat, using manners, sharing, and just deeply caring for others around them. We have made so many great friends here as well. Without any doubt, I highly recommend Little Sonshine for anyone looking for a Preschool, PK, TK, or Kindergarten for their little ones and desire a school that not only educates the whole child, but teaches them to be compassionate to others too. You will enjoy the annual Christmas Program, Fall and Spring Photos, Bike-a-thon, Mother's Day Tea, and Father's Day Donuts, Graduation, and many other events. As parents we also receive weekly feedback from the teachers and monthly newsletters. The teachers are ver approachable and respond to your needs and questions immediately. I feel like I gained a community of friends and family from LSS. Little Sonshine Schoolhouse will always hold a special place in my family's hearts forever.

Fair prices, bible incorporated, and location are 5 stars for us. I didn't think twice about signing my child up. Miss Izzy became family this year, my daughter would come talking about everything she learned. The one on one attention she got to help thrive was amazing. Summer school is also perfect! She would rather go to school then stay home and play all day. We were so lucky to find this gem, and I will recommend to everyone.

Principal allows bullying and takes no action or accountability. The bullying is not just the kids,…read moreit's the staff here too. But shhh they do not talk of such things. Oh no not their adult teachers, counselors, security could ever make mistakes. What a joke, they are hypocrites and liars. The principal condones bullying. She told my daughter that she should basically let it go when it came to some girls taunting her, and making insults to her. Her response to my daughter, when my daughter cried to her, was it wasn't really bullying because it was one time! Just one time! Thats whats wrong with these schools! People in charge like her! My daughter came to her a nervous wreck, emotionally distraught, vulnerable and opening up her feelings to an adult she's supposed to be able to come to for problems because I'm not there! She completely disregarded my daughter's feelings as not a big deal and did not do anything to those girls picking on my daughter! Im completely disgusted with the staff here. She is something else (in kinder words) you wanna know her ridiculous lame comment she made when I pulled my daughter out of her bully school? She laughed out loud to her secretaries, saying "why would anyone want to leave this school it's the best school BUT we wish Sarah good luck at her new school." Bully for a principal smh

The values this school holds kids to are something that is missing from other schools in the area. They have a zero tolerance level and I am thankful for that. The communication between parent and teacher is outstanding. If there were any issues with my kids I received an email or phone call right away. Teachers recognized when my boys were struggling in ELA and offered to place in an after school tutoring program to work on their weaknesses. All the teachers are amazing and I would recommend this school to all. I feel so lucky my kids were able to attend school here.

The bus driver told my son his dad isn't really his dad and kicked him of the bus with no prior written warnings which is in their handbook. I had to call the superintendent to have things sorted out and it put a bullseye on my back. Since then, things have gone downhill. Just recently when I wouldn't just accept that they railroaded me with a surprise meeting in which they talked about how they can't handle my son right in front of him, they decided to take it even father. I won't go in to specifics, but unless you want to comply with their ridiculous standards for looks, not for academics, be prepared to have your whole world changed. These people have done nothing but judge me and my son and it's wrong. I can't wait to be done with this school. My son's teacher went on maternity leave early on and the woman that subbed for her was just incompetent and I feel as though she's partially why my son is now academically stunted. She wasn't sending home more than 2 sheets of homework and didn't know how to properly discipline my son and another boy who don't get along. My son has picked up on the fact that if he's disruptive, they'll send him to the office and he takes advantage of it because they talk and laugh and joke with him which he loves. I'm just really sick of the fake, catty, judgemental stuff and hope the end of the year comes quickly.
