Our family appreciates the small, family-like environment of the school. Every teacher and student knows each other no matter the age/grade.

All of her teachers have shown her so much love and have been very supportive of our family. The school's student population is also very diverse and my daughter has made meaningful connections with her peers and teachers.

I attended this school 2nd grade through 8th grade, 1998 to 2004. The principals were authoritarian…read moreand modeled the school's organization on British boarding schools for some reason. In middle school, our math teacher Mrs. DiIorio gave an official, approved lecture to my class on why slavery was actually a good thing for enslaved Africans. I'm serious. She screamed at us constantly. Her approach was based in control, verbal abuse, and coercion. She led the class in bullying one of my friends who had organizational difficulties due to ADHD. In social studies, we had to memorize every single American Civil War date yet barely touched world geography. Another social studies teacher told us he supported the use of the nuclear bomb in WWII Japan and suggested that he opposed abortion. Were there decent teachers? Yes, the art and music programs were pretty good and the teachers were kind. But I hope the white supremacist, right-wing ideology and abusive tactics have gone to the wayside at this school. Something was very off at this place. I'm still unpacking trauma from the constant screaming of Mrs. DiIorio and others.

He started in pre-kindergarten and went all the way through. The tuition is far below that of Francis Parker or Latin.

Tiny Giants is an incredible daycare! Our son has been going to TG since he was 3 months old (now…read morehe's 3). The curriculum is wonderfully diverse--blending creative arts, music class, early STEM (yes, I said STEM... even for a daycare), literacy, and cultural learning in a way that keeps our child engaged and excited every day. It's clear that the program is thoughtfully designed to support all aspects of development. The staff at Tiny Giants are truly exceptional. One of their staff members has been with Tiny Giants for 15 years. They're kind, attentive, and deeply dedicated to each child's well-being and growth. You can feel the warmth and care from the moment you walk in, and it gives us so much peace of mind knowing our child is in such capable, loving hands. Things we love about TG ... weekly music class, updates throughout the day about how much they've eaten, potty breaks, nap time (start and end time) and the pictures and videos! Lots of pictures and videos. They have recently started doing a themed show and tell on Fridays. This has helped our son to express himself , describe something and create a story. This has also built his own self confidence and to think about something more meaningfully. Music class with Mr Ray is absolutely the best day of the week for our son. Mr Ray loves his job and he will shout it from the roof tops! They also have spirit days and tons of events throughout the year to bring families together and give us something to do with our little ones. They are always giving back... to the commmunity and to their staff. We're so grateful to be part of the Tiny Giants community. If you're looking for a nurturing, enriching, and inclusive environment for your little one, this is the place!

The teachers and staff have been indispensable to our kids development and milestones. The running joke in our household is that the teachers at TG need to slow down so we can catch up. Our kiddos love learning through the indoor and outdoor play and child-centered curriculum and activities that Tiny Giants offers. They have especially benefitted from the socialization they get with their classmates. I've been especially impressed over the years by the caring community that Tiny Giants has fostered among their families. Whether its been through weekend events, room parent communications, or informal park run-ins with fellow TG families, both our kiddos and my wife and I have made strong connections and fast friends through the Tiny Giants community.
