She made all the kids feel loved safe and encouraged them to always do their best. She made the first year of elementary school so special and when we look back on fondly. We are now in and absolutely loving Merryhill

My daughter attends Maryhill Midtown, and I honestly can't say enough good things about this…read moreschool. From the moment we first stepped on campus which is now 5 years ago, it just felt different -- warm, welcoming, and full of energy. The teachers are incredible -- caring, attentive, and truly invested in each child's growth. The curriculum strikes such a great balance between strong academics and creative, hands-on learning. My daughter has grown so much in both confidence and curiosity since starting here and even visits her favorite teacher Ms. Castro. The sports programs are another huge highlight! There's such a great community spirit, and it's clear that the staff..shout out to Mr. Kennedy...values teamwork, leadership, and fun just as much as skill. What I love most is how inviting the environment is. You can feel the pride and positivity in everything from the classrooms to the playground. It's a place where kids are genuinely excited to go to school every day. I love every year they have been introducing new electives from sewing to DnD to even a T Swift club that is engaging for everyone. If you're looking for a school that blends strong academics, great extracurriculars, and a warm community -- Maryhill Midtown is a gem. We couldn't be happier.

This school was decent…read more. My daughter has gone there from Kindergarten-5th grade. The staff were not at a high standard. P.E teachers were not on point, Forced my child to run even with a hurt ankle. Another incident Happened, When my child got pushed down, And She was requesting ice, Mr.E would not accept my child requesting ice, He responded with "You are banned from ice". Was not acceptable in my opinion. My child also came home telling myself of an incident that happened which appeared to be of, "Mr.E was touching my friend _____ and it was very weird". Very inappropriate matter. Miss.E was a very Sassy, inappropriate, And a liar. Explanation: She showed my kid Landray on a app called "Shien" As well as a teacher named as Miss.C. Miss.Myers was a pretty disrespectful lady as well with racism. Mrs.Pine Was very demanding along with ALOT of racism was long towards my child's friends. Was not appreciative. Mr.Moua Was a P.E teachers for The grades of 1-4th grade, I believe he needs to understand the grades of the children he was teachers we very young and he should be a little Non-Demanding. Thank you!

My daughter loves this school. She has been a student since starting Kindergarten during COVID and…read morehas been successful in meeting and exceeding benchmarks every year. I am happy with the staff, and Mr. H is an awesome principal that levels the kids and never pulls punches or gas lights the kids. He is straight forward and respected because he also returns the same respect to the students and parents. All of the teachers, paraeducators, P.E. teachers, etc. truly care about the kids and are open to listening to not only the parents, but our children as well. I have loved every teacher my daughter has had and look forward to seeing her continue her education at Sol Aureus. GO Phoenix!

This is our fourth year at Brookfield, and I'll be honest, we did consider leaving at one point…read more When our son first started kindergarten, we felt there was a lack of community, and that was something we really wanted for our family. After many conversations with my husband, we began to ask ourselves: Why leave a school we love so much, especially when we believe so strongly in the quality of its education and love the smaller class sizes? Instead, we said to ourselves, why not be part of building the community we hoped to find? Why not be the change we wanted to see? I'm so happy to say that today, while we continue to value the education Brookfield provides, what makes this school truly special to us is the community we've found here. It's the friendships we've built, the wonderful families we've met, and the amazing kids who have become such a meaningful part of our lives. What started as something we felt was missing has become one of the biggest reasons we're grateful to be here. Although there have been several staffing changes in the short time we've been here, they have been positive. The new team members have played a key role in strengthening the community and creating more opportunities for families to connect through activities and events. We're so glad we chose to stay and be part of creating the community we wanted for our family. Having sports available at the school now, along with Brookfield's involvement in PAL sports, is an added bonus! It provides even more opportunities for our kids to grow, connect, build friendships, and be part of something bigger than themselves. Ultimately, it's these relationships, experiences, and sense of belonging that have made Brookfield feel like so much more than just a school for our family.

Let's start with the good--small classes, some strong teachers, and a good community where my kiddo…read moremade friends. But we have to be honest with the downsides. Since ISP took over and Dr. Jo left, the school has changed. My sense is they will take any child who can pay. There is also less accountability when there are behavioral issues and the school does not feel like a safe place to send a child any longer. Kids are getting hurt, and there is inappropriate conduct. The teacher professionalism and turnover is an issue especially given the price of the school. They've hired some folks who don't have experience or a credential. And folks have left mid-year which is really hard on the kids. The school bills itself as accelerated--sometimes this ended up as a positive, but other times it felt too fast and mastery was lost in the process. I also think parents should know that some of these reviews were incentivized by the administration. I think the real picture is more of a mixed one.

The teachers, principal, and even non-educating staff members remember the names of each student and even parents. They test their students for GATE as well as placement levels, and actually help work with the parents and teachers to get curriculum that best suits that student. The teachers here understand that each student is just a child, and that each one is different. They even have their own teacher-run after school enrichment programs and tutoring that fill up quickly. There is also an after school program that runs til 6pm I believe. We did have one issue with one teacher being a little demanding but we had some mediation and got everything worked out.

Does the John Cabrillo elementary school and their ASES Program have medical forms for children to use their medication for school and after school programs? i mention to the ases progrogramer that my child has an disability and takes medication; but no after school program personels mention an medical authorization form so your child can use their medication. I spoke with the John Cabrillo admin department and she stated that the medical authorization forms may be different for an child to utilize their medications on campus.
