Teachers here are really nice and creative(Before our leaving, her teacher asked us if we want to have our daughter's picture. They picked all her picture out and put in a USB key for us. You can image how much extra effort they did). Ratio are very good. And compare to CA. This school does not have those winter break, spring break or summer break(Certainly this is quite common in NH). Classroom and playground are quite spacious and clean. And they have a big gym for rainy day and other activities. Although they don't have lots field trip for toddler and preschool(they do go around campus, and visit fire station and police station from time to time), they do invite others to come to perform. They have story teller, dancer, pet show... And they offers lots fun based curriculum. I missed this school very much

The most expensive glorified daycare there is with both owner and director having no child skills…read moreand no desire to even be around children or wanting anything to do with parents. There's zero communication no matter how hard you try unless you count passive aggressive e-mails days to weeks later. Sure you get a few photos during the day but try getting a hold of anyone and the phone just rings, or you never get a phone call or e-mail back. Teachers seem inexperienced to actually teach anything worthwhile, pre-k and k are run like a daycare just with tables labeled "art", "snacks" and so forth. Their scapegoat is to say they emphasize "learning through play" so they don't have to put in the effort. $1000 month for HALF days but nothing to show for this insane amount of tuition besides other kids families bringing in goody bags or snacks. They make you fill out novels of paperwork beforehand but don't even read the documents they make you turn in! Your child has a food allergy? They ignore it and give your child that food. My kiddo comes home saying they had a stomachache and told the teacher they felt sick, but you get no report or phone call?! - just to find out with questioning your child that they're feeding your kiddo their allergen!! The next day they sent him home WITH his allergen food AFTER I called and asked why he was eating said allergen and the teacher called me saying " I didn't see that but I'm looking at it now" say what?!! To add insult to injury they make you give 30 days paid notice to unenroll and then you finally get communication FAST from their see you aunt tee director demanding payment, daily kind you.. demanding it daily. Please research and read other reviews that say exactly this about this disgraceful "school". I wish I had and saved 2k.

The windows and the overall facility is extremely out-dated and did not look particularly clean or healthy. The building does not have any ventilation system and the windows are always shut when the children are indoors (for safety and to save heat and a/c) -- meaning the indoor air quality is extremely poor. I think that places providing child care need to up-date their facilities to provide a healthy, clean environment with adequate ventilation and plenty of natural light and green space outdoors. I felt that the facility is lacking in all these respects despite possibly providing a fun experience and socialization for the kids.

My daughter was a student here from 1st grade through 7th grade. The school was run into the ground…read moreby the former owner; Lyn Kutzelman. She only wanted free help and not consulting support from all the people that were in her presence as parents. Due to the sale of the school and the lack of interest for 8th grade the upper school was closed. We moved our daughter to Windham Middle School and if it was not for a full-time tutor she would have failed math. This was actually "taught" by Lyn's daughter and another instructor within HA. Core concepts were never taught but lots of photocopies of old textbooks were used as teaching materials and homework. This would explain why people used outside math teachers while their children were enrolled. In 1st grade we had 29 students and by 7th grade we had less than 10 and of the 10 only 5 were from the 1st grade class. They should be ashamed of themselves for charging what they did with the level of education being so low that back to basics was required to survive in another schools system. Keep in mind my daughter achieved high grades at HA and even made Honor Roll and High Honors. Yet, outside of here she was failing. Waste of 7 years of education and money. A NH teacher of the year has left as well so they could even keep a few of the gems that they had on staff.
