The focus they put on leadership and self-governing is something I wish I had learned growing up. My brother struggled in regular school to the point we weren't sure if he could keep up here. However within the school year he was actually excelling, not because the school is easy, but because he had a true support system. His teacher would work one on one with him and gave him extra assignments that would help him get the concepts in a way he could understand and practice. It was a lot of work for my brother, but to finally be on A honor roll was priceless! I knew I wouldn't want my daughter to go anywhere else after seeing my brothers transformation. They focus on true principles and helping the students learn for themselves and enjoy the process. We love this school and feel so lucky to have found them! We also love the new campus!

My friends were dealing with racist driven attacks daily. When we reported students for using the n-word every day to them we were told that the boys said we had said mean stuff to them. Nothing was done about the report because my friends were sticking up for themselves. But hey if your white and are a trump supporter this school is for you.

    I'm finding it really hard to even want to place my child in this school . The front desk should be…read morea example of the school and the values they posses . Me and my child woke up at 7 am to get him enrolled in school I have never dealt with a school being so unprofessional and backwards. Why hold up a child's education because you are being LAZY, she didn't want to help us from the get go, she kept trying to turn us away but if we didn't need the schooling then obviously I would turn the other way... Paula the one getting us set up , it's sad when you can smell racism she didn't want to even really assist us and by all reasoning it was because the color of our skin. Informed her we have a whole day to get him set up and she is gonna try and send us back tomorrow when it's only 9am . The whole experience with the front staff was beyond horrible but yet this is where we send our children . It's sad racism still exists BUT even sadder which you are the one experiencing it. JUST SAD!

    I'm highly upset. This school has done to much and too less all in the same boat. My daughter…read moreforgot to turn off her cell phone. The teacher wanted to know where it was coming from she told her in her backpack and ms. Bravo started to shake her backpack and empty everything out of it . Her iPhone 11 hit the ground. That's unacceptable she could have just got it out the backpack and turned it off or asked serenity too. I'm a single disabled mother of 2 kids with screws in her back. My kids started going to this school in the end of September and already my daughter has been pushed my son has been choked and her cel phone dumped out on the ground. To make matters worse my son is on the basketball team, normally my kids ride the bus to and from school but on practice days I have my daughter stay because she wouldn't get off the bus in enough time to make it to pick up my son. When I ordered my Uber it was 15 minutes away completely out of my control. But the lady in the office told me I know you want to watch your son but if she's here this late she's gonna go to safekey and you'll have to pay. Mamn I'm disabled you never know what someone is going through I have no car and no family plus I'm disabled obviously I wasn't attempting to pick my daughter up late. I'm so disappointed in this school. I hate this is school my kids are currently zoned in. They made excuses for each child that put their hands on my kids and are just going to do the same thing about my daughters phone. Poor excuse for an elementary school. I've been waiting for a call back from the counselor for over 3 days. I should have never had to reach out to him he was supposed to contact me I can go on and on about how horrible this school is compared to others my kids have attended.

WHY DO THEY MARK IT DOWN? DON'T KNOW? it's honestly not like it makes it any faster! sure makes it seem like they are organized in doing so, but I asked my child one day & she said they just say "okay (child's name) your parent is here get ready" as a type of warning Im sure? but then she added on & said "but sometimes I can't hear who they say because it's really loud & I get in trouble if Im not ready because I wasn't listening". So my point is they need to find a new way to organize this situation. I can't fathom the amount of waiting it takes for parents with more than one child!!

Our kids started there at just 6 months old with Mrs…read moreThurman and Mrs Lori (the best), and for the past four years the teachers have played such an important role in their growth. They were there for first steps, bottle-to-cup transitions, and so many important milestones. The teachers truly care, and as a mom, that peace of mind is everything. We've been amazed at how much they've learned (not just academically but socially and emotionally as well). Our daughter has developed a love for art thanks to the creative and unique projects led by Ms Mummert. We are grateful for the care and patience to the toddler teachers (Ms. Elysa, & Ms. Kanae, Mrs. Ranieri). This past year, the new leadership team has made an already great school even better with more extracurricular activities and special guests. We are so grateful for our time at Merryhill and would highly recommend it to any family looking for a nurturing, engaging environment for their little one.

It's a stimulating and nurturing environment. Ms. Hohman & Mrs. Walker make us feel welcomed each day we get there. My son's teacher is Ms. Flynn - she is SO great (all I would hope for in a teacher for him). He is eager to learn, eager to share with me what he's learning and seems to be ahead of most kids his age with reading, writing & numbers. On top of that, I believe Merryhill has been a big part of his social development.

    Now that my children are transitioning to different schools, I believe it's the right time to share…read moremy thoughts through a review, as I've been quite vocal about our experience this year. First and foremost, I must acknowledge that many of the teachers we encountered were excellent. However, as we reached the higher grade levels, we encountered some difficulties in communication with certain teachers. In my opinion, fostering effective communication and building strong teacher-student-parent relationships are crucial for academic success, and this is an area where this school fell short. The second area of concern was the administration. While the executive director of CASLV was responsive and easy to communicate with, there was a lack of proactive action that would have benefited students and families. The immediate administrative staff was practically absent, and their lack of initiative left the school in a less than desirable state. CASLV may appear impressive in their advertisements, but the reality becomes apparent once your child is enrolled. Throughout the year, there were recurring behavioral issues that the school and administration attributed to being a new campus, despite the fact that it was not a new educational system. While my son had positive experiences with his teachers, which was undoubtedly the best aspect of the school, my middle schooler struggled to thrive. As a result, I made the decision to enroll her in Nevada Virtual Learning Academy, where teachers were readily accessible to both students and parents. She excelled in that environment. There has always been an air of secrecy surrounding CASLV. Some of the office staff treated parents as though they were an inconvenience. If one cannot maintain a positive demeanor and be the welcoming face of the school as the initial point of contact, then that individual may not be suitable for the role. I strongly encourage considering the type of experience you desire for your children, including relationships with staff and administration, accessibility to teachers and administrators, as well as the curriculum and extracurricular activities. Also, as a STEM school, I didn't feel like it had any advantage to other schools -- what they offer is the norm for all schools today. For my family, CASLV Cadence fell short in meeting our expectations.

    My brother has attended this school for over a year, and the experience has been consistently…read moredisappointing and deeply concerning. He is a special needs student with ADHD, autism, and a speech impediment, and this school routinely ignores his IEP. That alone should be a red flag for any parent considering enrollment. Beyond that, the bullying and harassment he faces from other students is relentless. When he reports it to the teachers, nothing happens. Yet somehow, my brother is constantly the one being punished and reprimanded, often for behavior he denies, and that I personally witness other students doing every single day without any consequence. The double standard is impossible to ignore. Other kids push, curse, and act out constantly, but my brother is always the one made out to be the problem. One teacher in particular, Miss Willingham, has handled my brother's case in ways that are deeply troubling. She removed my brother from tutoring based solely on the word of other students for behavior she never personally witnessed and that my brother also denies. That is not discipline, that is bias against a child who already struggles to advocate for himself due to his speech impediment. She has also had my brother suspended over a comment he made in a Google chat. It's truly disappointing as well as in a way, pathetic for a grown adult educator to respond by having a child suspended over a comment which is a profound misuse of authority. This woman felt so threatened by a child's frustrated comment in a chat that she escalated it to a suspension, especially a special needs child who already struggles to communicate. This is not only disproportionate, it's retaliatory, and it feels like she used her position to punish him. I pick my brother up from school nearly every day, so I see firsthand how these students behave as well as the fact that there is barely any adult supervision or surveillance there to monitor and course correct behavior. The language and conduct is appalling for any age group, and this school spans elementary through high school, meaning younger kids are constantly exposed to the behavior of older students. An elementary school-aged child literally called me a "stupid whore" on the Friday, right before their spring break. That is the culture this administration has allowed to fester. XI had reported it and asked that there be more staff positioned outside when the students were released at the end of the day but there haven't been any as of weeks and weeks later. Reports have been made. Nothing ever changes or is resolved, really. This school has failed my brother at every level. He dreads going every single day. If you are considering enrolling your child here, especially the child with special needs, please look elsewhere. This is not the school for your child.
