There are so many outstanding opportunities such as Regents, Honors, AP Courses, electives, extracurriculars, and sports due to the fact that it is a National blue ribbon school and it is ranked #1 in Best Public High Schools in Dutchess County. Students feel well prepared going into their college choices, and there is a small diverse community that helps everyone get to know each other. I look forward to becoming a student at Spackenkill High School as a tuition student.

The teachers are always available, they push students to achieve their best, and the district is very supportive of all its teams: athletic and academic alike.

So glad we found this nursery school when we moved up here. It reminds me of the one I went to as a…read morechild. The school Director and teachers are always available and are completely transparent with the day-to-day. They create a fun and safe space for children to learn through play and truly love being part of the kids' first "school" experience. My daughter has been out of the school for three years and still wishes she could go back and considers her friends from nursery school her best friends. My daughter was so sad to leave the school her teachers wrote and mailed her letters over the summer and throughout the whole next year. I'm so happy my youngest is now experiencing the co-op. Highly recommend this community to anyone who wants their child to experience a small amount of independence in what, in my opinion, are appropriate hours for 3 - 5 year olds.

What always amazes me is of experiences at this religious education building. I'm neither a fan,…read morenor a non-fan of this place. I've been backed into a neutral corner on this one. It may be the only real separately-housed Catholic religious education building around, but it's hard to say that this place only has religious ed classes for children at times when most children aren't attending regular school and during times when most parents still have to work(so transportation for kids is inadequate. Although our family never really had too bad of a time at making transportation to this school within the time frame alloted, many people we know, seem to have a slight problem with making commitments to religious education for their children(if they chose the Catholic lifestyle). What I can officially complain about, is the cost for all the courses that are required by all children seems to escalate, especially in these desperate times. The prices seem to never decrease and taking all makes the grand total nasty on the family of a limited budget. But when people tend to focus their kids into realizing how involved this really is for them to get a good education in religion(being for them to make most of the required sacraments to have them eventually make their marriage vows), makes this place a seemly reasonable option. But religious education classes aren't all that goes on here. They also have holiday masses and some special Catholic events here inside the "gymnasium" along with a CYO basketball game at inconvenient times, and out the back on one day, their anual church picnic (free to Catholic members-working on honor system). The only problem I've found, is that, for most parents(during holiday masses and special Catholic events here) and most older children who are required to attend, the bathroom about halfway down the main hall, seems to have toilets that are way too low for most adults to use. They seem to be suited for the daycare group(http://www.yelp.com/biz/funshine-nursery-school-red-hook) that exists at the one end of the hall.

My oldest son, who is now 7 years old, attended Blossoming Minds during the 2012/2013 and 2013/2014 school year. He was beyond prepared for Kindergarten thanks to their dedication to his education as well as them following the updated Preschool standards. My little guy, who is now 20 months old, attends the daycare. I love that they use the Bright Wheel app to communicate his day to me. They send me pictures where I can see him playing, learning and having fun. I am also able to check in with the teacher at any moment by messaging them. Their response time is amazing, always answering me back within 5 minutes. He has learned to sit during circle time where he sings songs, learns the weather and counts. He recognizes his name, sings his ABC's and learns through play. The staff and owners are absolutely amazing. Please ignore any other ridiculous reviews that have been left by friends of disgruntled employees. Call today and schedule your visit to the best daycare/preschool in the Hudson Valley! You will not be disappointed!!!
