She may seem strict, but she's actually not once you get to know her and just respect and do the things that she wants you to do. She will do so much for you throughout your Sullivan years. This school is not bad at all and I do recommend you going even if you don't have a choice like I did. I wanted to go to Forest Grove, but they kicked me out over the summer before I couldn't even go so I was forced to go to my homeschool Sullivan. But honestly, I'm really glad I stayed and met these amazing peers and teachers!! The only reason this did not get a 5 star is because I think the nurses office isn't really as educated. They're mostly rude and I do think they have favorites when it comes to students. And I've also met a tiny amount of teachers that were a little disrespectful and unhelpful but overall this school was the best school I've ever been to, and I've graduated happily with my classmates alongside with my teachers who were there with me! And one thing I would like to mention is that I was on red team. And in my opinion, the best team with the best teachers and any type of staffs! :)) and also the lunch there isn't as great and it's also very hot in the lunch room during the summer, but overall it's good here and there when it comes to lunch!

SMS offered exactly that. We also have another child who requires additional support through SPS but have successfully been able to navigate having our child attend SMS with services at the public school with the tremendous help and advocacy from SMS. There are teachers at SMS who are a shining light and will forever be a special memory in their primary school education.

Then they told us a week before school started that they were not able to accept our child into the academy. Leaving us stressed, upset, And stuck. I have heard other bad reviews from other parents too. The things they said my child should already know is typically taught in kindergarten, it is not my job to teach my child everything, it is the teachers. Poor communication also, teacher and director skipped the conference call to tell us of there choice, they set up time and failed to meet at that time. Made us wait 4 days before they finally told us he was not accepted. Children deserve a school where they are accepted and can strive. This school is all about status, money, and doesn't serve in the best interest of families. - anonymous

Both our kids did their elementary schooling there, from Pre-K and K to 5th grade. At one point the…read moreschool changed name from Wayland Academy, when the faculty took over and became co-administrators. To summarize: in 6 to 7 years, our kids never said they did not want to go to school. The teachers are superb, it is a very multi-cultural community, the class sizes are small, allowing students to work at their own pace. Either they are super bright in math or need a little more time on reading, there is plenty of resources there to make learning a great experience. They do plenty of field trips and activities, get a great foundation in being good citizens. My kids now in middle school are kind leaders who can build efficient teams and rally good people around. Not only they learnt their curriculum at an advance level, but they mostly learnt to read people and make informative decisions about whom they want to be friends with and whom they do not. If you ask me, it is the most valuable skill ever. Thumbs up for the Brighton School in Framingham!

I have a lot of experience with Hudson Children's Center, as my 3 year old has been attending for…read morealmost a year, and my 13 year old attended when he was in daycare and pre-school. There are some key points that set Hudson Children's Center apart from other daycare centers and pre-schools: 1. A good portion of the day is spent outdoors, in their large backyard filled with picnic tables, swing sets, and climbing structures. 2. The staff are caring and engaged, meaning you won't find them preoccupied with their phones. 3. There is a major focus on daily art projects and creativity. 4. There is a beautiful inground pool in the backyard. During summer, any potty-trained child is able to participate in daily free-swim in their floaties with staff in and around the pool, keeping good care of safety. 5. Also in summer, a dedicated swimming instructor provides private swimming lessons for every child whose parents opt to sign them up for lessons. The extra charge for private lessons is a major bargain. The core staff are Robin and June who have worked at the center for many years. They set the tone for peace, calm, care, and creativity. Every weekday morning, I bring my daughter to pre-school. I interact with the staff and the children. I feel welcome and comfortable. I know my daughter is well-liked and well-cared for. I know that every day, she is being enriched with creative projects and fun learning by her teacher, Wendy, and a great team. Every afternoon, when my wife comes home with our daughter, I see that our daughter is happy. She's had a great day at Hudson Children's Center. My daughter's pre-school class is diverse, which is important to my family. The center has a private, online group for parents. Almost daily, teachers share with us photos of our children participating in enriching activities, including gym time, programs with their dedicated music teacher, field trips, and general play/silly time. I feel like the team encourages my daughter's creativity and individualism. Even at 3, she likes to choose her clothes. Sometimes she'll opt to wear a costume. When she arrives at the center with me during the morning, she is met with enthusiastic and supportive staff members who notice her, notice what she's wearing, and compliment her. Depending on your work schedule, one negative might be that the center is only open until 5 pm, so you must arrive before then to pick up your child. Honestly, children are at daycare for so many hours during the day... They may arrive as early as 7:30 am... The 5 pm pickup time makes some sense. In my experience, after 5 pm, children are longing for their parent pickup and hoping the next person that arrives is their parent to pick them up. Of course, the "early" pickup time won't work for everyone's work and personal situation. I recommended Hudson Children's Center without reservation. To summarize, my daughter is well-cared for. Her creativity is fostered. The education is enriching. The swimming pool and swimming lessons are a huge bonus and value. The staff are engaged, creative, and caring.
