Also, my son's teachers (two because one teaches in English and the other in Spanish), principal, and all of the school staff seem so friendly. I love how they have a 'greeter' at the school gate to give kids their first friendly welcome or high-five of the day. That may seem like a trivial detail but that moment of positive, personalized attention is oh, so important, imo. The outside staff at the beginning and end of school are especially upbeat, too. Keep up the great work! We parents appreciate it. See ya there!

Shower Review - Marcos de Niza (Arizona) - Male Locker Room…read more * Layout & Facilities: Large locker room with 897 lockers and 48 shower heads. Plenty of capacity, but entry into the shower area requires a big step, which could be tricky for some. * Water Controls: Two-valve system: * Bottom valve = hot * Top valve = cold Temperature balance is inconsistent -- water can suddenly spike hot or cold before leveling out. Score: 3/10 for temperature control. * Water Quality: Water feels sharp -- high pressure or mineral-heavy. Not the most comfortable but tolerable. Score: 7/10. * Lighting & Design: Dim lighting, which might make visibility low in the early morning or late evening. The floor has diagonal grooves in the concrete, which help with water drainage -- a smart feature for safety and cleanliness. * Overall Rating: 6/10 Functional with solid capacity and thoughtful drainage design, but brought down by temperature inconsistency, harsh water feel, and poor lighting.

Not knowing anything about preschool disabilities I enrolled my son after receiving an IEP from…read morechild find for speech delay. Getz review- Highs: The teachers love the kids. It was completely free. A very needed service for preschoolers with disabilities!!! Lows: you're not allowed to observe. There was no documentation on the kids days. His IEP was never formally gone through with me. Less then 24 hrs notice for things like, bring a pink treat day or send in donations for making gingerbread houses. His speech therapist mishandled his IEP several times. On the day we withdrew him I brought in thank you cards for the teachers and was told his speech therapist no longer works there. No one thought to tell me. Crazy mismanaged school. But good heart. If you have a preschool kiddo getting an IEP know that you also have an option to get funding straight from the state via ESA's. You can use that on therapies for them. I hate hate hate redirecting funds from public school but I have to do what's best for my 4 year old who wasn't getting the care he was entitled to.

My kid always comes home happy and saying he had fun! If your child is having a not so well day they still take the time to give your child that extra time to feel better or behave. The school is very secure and safe you need a passcode to enter the front gates during school hours! During the morning and dismissals there are numerous staff members standing outside so all eyes are on your children. There's been times where I was standing outside the gate and my kid ran out the gate to hug me and as soon as he got to the gate exit they grabbed him so fast then realized I was standing there BUT I AM SO GRATEFUL to know that they are watching the kids every move and they are so quick! YOU ACTUALLY SEE WHAT YOU ARE PAYING FOR MONTHLY! We went to numerous schools visiting but when we got here I KNEW THIS WAS IT!! I'm soo sad they only do pre school because I would love my kid to go here forever :)!

We have 3 Broadmor students. I really just can't imagine having our kids in any other school…read more Our oldest child is in PACE and the academic standards for the entire school are not too far behind. We have loved nearly all of the teachers that have had the honor of teaching our children. For the ones we didn't quite love as much, well, you win some, you lose some. Some people just don't get along with each other. I can not say anything bad about their skills as teachers because my children are all coming along fine. Their personalities just weren't for us as I'm sure our personalities weren't for them. The Learning Patch is awesome and I truly wish I had more time to volunteer and be a more active part of the PTA. The garden is completely volunteer run, so if you have some extra time on a scheduled workday, please stop by. If you have things to donate: plants, seeds, gardening tools, etc... those things are all happily accepted as well. The PTA: without question or argument, this school would not be what it is without the immense amount of parent involvement. I have heard several people make mention of the the PTA being "cliquish" but I have not personally experienced that type of behavior. I admittedly do not participate as often as I would like to but any time that I have stopped in, I have felt welcomed. I can not recommend this school enough. It has an amazing community.

Choosing a pre-K school or daycare for your little one is stressful, especially when research has…read moreshown that the years before kindergarten are crucial for learning and development. Parents strive to find the right place where their child can have the best chance of success. Whether or not you adhere to the Montessori principles, Tree Roots Montessori (TRM) is a top-notch environment for any child. Here's why we chose TRM and stayed there for 3 years (ages 2-5): 1. The staff operates under a growth mindset. We experienced a positive relationship with Ms. Hulya and her staff. Ms. Hulya has over 15+ years of experience and demonstrates a desire to stay current and advance her professional development. She attends yearly workshops and maintains a curiosity for learning. When you find an educator with such deep passion for teaching, it makes a night-and-day difference for your child. 2. The setting is ripe for learning. It's obvious that everything at this school is designed to advance and elevate the students' learning experiences. This space is purposefully curated, impeccably organized, and remarkably clean. It continues to pass official health inspections by always adhering to their standards. Think of TRM as a daily retreat or sanctuary for your kids. 3. Intimacy yields social and emotional development. The teacher-child ratio is optimal (including Ms. Hulya, there are 2 additional assistants on-site). The small class size helped our kid develop deeper relationships with other kids and gain a sense of collective responsibility. As younger kids grow and progress, they are encouraged to provide mentorship for incoming kids. It's these relationships that emphasize social and emotional development, making academic achievements possible (i.e. reading, writing, math skills, etc.). 4. Mealtimes cultivate positive experiences with food. We wanted a place that stressed good nutrition and smart eating habits. TRM always has snacks on-hand (from Whole Foods) and follows a strict policy of 'no sugar or junk food' in lunches. Kids participate in setting the table and loading dishwasher, eating their veggies first, and helping with meal prep. These communal eating experiences and regular cooking activities also led to good dining etiquette and meal planning for our family at home. 5. Trust and transparency are key to everyone. Much of TRM successes are attributed to Ms. Hulya and her teaching philosophy. This is why parents must equally invest in developing a transparent working relationship with her. We found Ms. Hulya to be open to our suggestions, honest in addressing our concerns, and willing to provide reasonable solutions for any course correction. Her communication was warm and friendly; mostly done via in-person or phone call (sometimes via text message or email). Overall, we wouldn't trade our experiences at TRM for anything. Our child felt the support of educators who invested in his development within a loving environment. He now has self-confidence and social skills needed to transition to kindergarten. He has an enthusiasm for learning, creating the building blocks for academic success. He also discovered passions (like cooking and painting) that we'll continue to foster. We know it's not always easy to find the right learning environment for your child. Choosing a school can be a trial-and-error process. If TRM is a good fit, you will not be disappointed. Hope this review is helpful --- and good luck!!
