    A lot of empty promises. Fill sorry for the employees. They change frequently and I can tell toxic environment is the reason behind.

    Stay away !!!! This place is not for working families…read more They will call you for no reason to pic up the kid. Those are there rules and thats it. Dawn is not the honest person to deal with. Any argument she will make you pay. Extra fees are everywhere. Other places are more convenient and loving. Early drop off is a rip off there. You are paying for lunch that basically kids don't eat. Need to supply them with extra. My daughter was left in cold weather outside, shivering from cold and crying, I found her in playgrounds and teachers says.... We gave her hugs and kisses I hope she will be well. Teachers are changing very frequently. That make it very strange. Either there are overwhelmed or underpaid.

    The school is absolutely wonderful with a fun, stimulating and varied curriculum. In my opinion…read moreit's a perfect balance of activities that incorporate all the critical early development milestones. There is both predictability in the schedule blended with new experiences. My children love it there and cannot wait to return for another year. Location is ideal. The playground and outdoor scenery is picturesque, located on a one way quiet and clean residential street. The classroom is bright and inviting. My kids absolutely love love the art projects. There is even group yoga!! And introduction of computer skills. I think it's great how there are different themes throughout the school year with emphasis on important health, science, safety, and community topics and more. The staff are warm, friendly, patient and professional and they seem very well versed in early childhood development and education. The drop off and pick up are well organized. It is amazing how much my child has excelled and matured socially and emotionally thanks to this wonderful, thoughtful and well laid out program. Definitely highly recommend!!!

They are extremely safe regarding COVID at all grade levels and separate everyone into cohorts, so whenever there is exposure, we don't need to shut down the entire school. This entire school year, we have not yet had to stay at home due to COVID, which wasn't the case at the last school we enrolled our son in. As for his learning, his language has really exploded while being enrolled in the school. He has even started playing with other children so well and being interested in their activities, which I attribute to the great socialization at Buckley. My son loves going to school every morning. His teachers, Miss Susan and Miss April, are so wonderful and provide great updates on his progress as well as his classmates. The Buckley community as a whole is very welcoming and inclusive. Would definitely recommend!

Buckley accepts students as young as two years old in the Pre-Nursery program, and admits students on a rolling basis through grade seven. The school’s mission, Opening The Eyes And Awakening The Mind, is at the heart of its curriculum, which seeks to inspire and prepare students for a lifetime of learning. Buckley sets itself apart from other independent schools by fostering a deep appreciation of learning, and developing students who are committed to making the world a better place through thoughtful inquiry, critical thinking, and community engagement.

    I once considered myself an ardent supporter of Our Lady of Grace, having sent my two children…read morethere several years apart. But the unflattering stories seeping out of OLG are too many, too corroborated, and too disturbing to ignore. To begin with, quite a few parents in my network (a few of whom I regrettably, recommended to OLG) were dismayed at their experience at the nursery level. One says her child was denied a snack. Another complained of insensitive and unprofessional communication surrounding a language barrier (similar complaints surrounding developmental delays, both confirmed and perceived abound.) Additionally, there are quite a few complaints that the lead nursery teacher -- who has been there so long, quite a few generations have had this teacher at some point -- chronically shouts and is overall quite harsh with the children. It is my belief then, that seniority and impunity run parallel through the ranks, creating a haze of toxicity over OLG. Further, several nursery parents most recently complained that although they were given a lengthy midterm progress report, no final report card was given. Sadly, it was never lost on me that OLG has long lacked diversity, so parents were delighted to see a Black woman join as a teaching assistant last September. The children loved her, I'm told. But many were mystified when she disappeared soon before the school year ended. The children were told, "She's sick, and she went home." (From a child psychology perspective, this is an absolutely frightening, and emotionally damaging message to tell the preschoolers that a beloved mother figure is sick and, poof! gone for good.) Further, parents were never notified of the departure itself nor the actual reasons surrounding it and were shocked to learn a family member of another teacher just "showed up" one day to fill in. It is worth noting that, sadly, this is the second Black teacher in recent years to inexplicably disappear from OLG's all-White roster. Some gaps in the curriculum may need addressing, too. A few colleagues have complained that after their children dutifully completed their years at OLG, they faltered in traditional school settings, namely with reading and math. This further tarnishes OLG's reputation. From the outside looking in, it's clear that much of the surrounding Manhasset community is the wiser for all of these whispers. Some, like the deep-pocketed multigenerational donors, send their offspring off to OLG anyway, knowing their dollars will curry the extra favor. While the unsuspecting "others" have their rude awakening sooner or later. And thusly, there is churn and concern over retention rates. I hope those at OLG will read this review and look to address the issues laid bare here.

    OLG is a wonderful school! Both of my daughters attend(ed) the school, and we could not be happier…read morewith their progress through the years - academically, emotionally, and spiritually. Sister Kelly and all of the teachers provide a nurturing and loving environment that challenges our young children to care deeply for each other and the world around them, respect others, and take responsibility for their actions. The school embodies the philosophy of Maria Montessori fostering initiative, self-esteem and independence. In the crazy world that we love in today, there is no where else that I would want my children to be. OLG is a gift and we are so blessed to be part of their community.

    A four star vetting? Far from it…read more It's dirty and unsafe. You're putting your kids at risk by sending them here. There's never enough staff, and the staff they do have, many are not licensed or being reviewed by the licensing agency for misconduct. Most of the good teachers left out of frustration. Few good ones are still left, are paid a few Pennie's over minimum wage, and have had enough. More recently, they chose to keep around a teacher that was accused of abusing 3 (THREE!) infants by another teacher because they "felt it couldn't be true". Only when parents called corporate was it actioned on. Before enrolling, try reaching out to the families who've left to get their honest reviews. I'm sure you can find them easily. I wish someone told me all this when I enrolled. It's expensive, one of the most expensive areas in the area, and has the worse reputation in the neighborhood. Run. Your welcome.

    awful corporate owned daycare, meaning they do not pay their teachers well and parents are dealing…read moreconstant tuition increases. i sent my son here for 5+ years and i am so glad to be done with this place. within the last year, this daycare has had incidents where a young child was left locked in the outside playground in the hot summer for over an extended time (over 40+ mins) without anyone realizing he was missing. a few weeks later, my son was involved in an incident that was reported to Office of Child and Family Services (OCFS) where a teacher was reported to be handling my toddler son aggressively. after investigation, i learned this teacher had been disciplined 3x for the same reason and no action was taken by the director. the final straw was the director not notifying me of the incident (had to find out from OCFS) and she was not even being apologetic. a red flag for anyone considering KC is there is a big open house sign in front of kindercare promoting they have open availability because most of the parents i know pulled their child from kindercare after the incident with my son. any decent daycare is going to be fully booked because of childcare staffing shortages and parents being diligent about not cutting corners when it comes to finding the right care for their baby. google "MANHASSET KINDERCARE OCFS" and check for yourself.
