Both of my children have attended ABC barn from 2 years old until they transitioned to…read morekindergarten. Like most moms, I was hesitant to leave them in the care of someone else I didn't know but those thoughts quickly disappeared because it's is clear that every single staff member treats each and every child as their own and I knew my kids were in safe hands. ABC is a place where your child will feel safe and loved every minute they are on campus. Both of my girls loved going to school every day and it means the world to me to know that my kids are happy while at school. They had fun and learned so much in the process. As an educator, it was a blessing knowing my girls had the proper foundations in place as they entered kindergarten through engaging and meaningful activities. I loved how the teachers all work together to on a daily basis and each of them knew all of the children, their needs and how to foster a love for learning. These teachers have even gone as far as communicating with the elementary school staff across the street to ensure that incoming kinders are prepared and adapt their lessons accordingly!! Words cannot begin to express my gratitude for every single person at ABC barn. Their dedication to kids is remarkable and a joy to have been apart of. Every time I drive by the little red barn with the farm animals on the hill will be a reminder of the wonderful 5 years my girls were able to call this place their school as well as the amazing people we have met along the way. ABC Barn will forever hold a special place in our hearts because of the people there. Thank you Mr. Ron and every single staff member at ABC. We love you. Ali, Andrew, Grace, and Maddie

My two daughters have been at sparrow since 2021. It was such a relief to find a school that has…read morecommunity and meets criteria for education. Our teachers thus far have been caring, knowledgeable, and dependable. While the school has gone through a few changes over the years, the sparrow community continues to hold together for the kids with help of parents and staff alike. The most important thing is my children are HAPPY at sparrow. They have made true friendships, they know all the staff on a first name basis, and are learning to love learning. Waldorf education is a different kind of educational pathway, however at sparrow all concepts that are seen in public school are still met at sparrow bcuz they are a charter and state funded. They just teach it in a different way. They are not perfect and it's an uphill battle to keep this charter school functioning as a Waldorf since we still have to meet state testing, but the village it provides makes it worth while. Those looking into Waldorf education private or charter, should really work to understand what, how and why, waldorf curriculum is taught.

My son is so far behind and they didnt tell me I went to them and told them and then all the sudden they agreed. There is absolutely no communication between facilitiy members. I've been lied to and now I've called Neda 4 times and have yet to recieve a call back. I can not recommend this school. On an educational level I knew this was not traditional but I had no idea my son would be so behind. Im having to pay several hundreds of dollars each month for tutors. I love norse mythology but I did not think that would completely take place of history. My child has not been taught about presidents or wars or anything really related to us history. I do not blame this new teacher the year just started. This whole experience for the past several years has been disappointing. ​

We feel incredibly grateful to be part of such a warm, welcoming, and enriching school community…read more From the very beginning, our family has felt supported not just academically, but personally as well. The teachers and staff truly go above and beyond to create an environment where each child feels seen, valued, and encouraged to grow. We currently have three children at the school, and each of them has had such a positive and unique experience. The balance between strong academics and character development is something we deeply appreciate. It's clear that the school is focused on nurturing the whole child, building confidence, kindness, and a genuine love for learning. One of the highlights for our family has been the musical program. Our daughters have been involved in the school musical, and it has been such a meaningful experience for them. Not only have they grown in confidence and creativity, but they've also formed friendships across different grade levels, which has been so special to see. The sense of community that comes from these programs is truly something unique. We couldn't be happier with our experience and feel lucky every day to be part of this amazing school. It's a place where children are encouraged to thrive, friendships flourish, and families feel genuinely connected.

I have only GREAT things to say about Mt. Helix Academy!!…read more My little 3rd grader has THRIVED at this school. Known to be very shy and often wouldn't participate in class, we were desperate. There wasn't ever any trouble, just no willingness to be part of school functions, class projects, and we were about to succumb to the idea that was just the way it was. No joy for school or even extra-curricular activities. Well... these teachers did amazing things!! My child is like a whole new kid. The small class sizes helped them focus on my child's needs, and the care the teachers showed made such a difference. Now my child loves school, can't wait to "try" math (it can still be hard) and is in the school play! I would have never thought this could happen. I was just looking for a place where a child could feel welcome and loved, and, oh yeah - learn. I am so very thankful that we took a chance on Mt. Helix Academy. I can't recommend them enough!

Montessori Achievement Centre

At first, I was so excited to find Montessori Achievement Centre, I was looking for a traditional…read moreMontessori preschool for my daughter. During the tour, I asked a few questions to confirm what they advertised on their website -- that they were a traditional Montessori school. I asked Patricia, the founder and director, if there were any ways in which they deviated from traditional Montessori practices and principles and she said, "no, we don't deviate at all from traditional Montessori practices." So, I was shocked when picking up my 2 year old a little early from "Montessori time" (830am-130pm) to find the entire school huddled around a TV watching Troll cartoons. This is a double whammy of violating the Montessori principles of not using technology/screen time and avoiding fantasy. After asking Patricia about it, she confirmed that they put the kids in front of the television when it was hot outside. (With the location in East County, it is hot a lot in the afternoons.) Given that they lied about staying true to traditional Montessori practices and principles, I didn't feel safe continuing to leave my toddler in their care, because I don't trust that they aren't misleading about other areas of their care. I understand if a preschool decides to use TV sometimes, but I don't feel that it's okay to mislead parents about it. Their communication has been terrible from day one, from not telling me everything I needed to bring with her on the first day of school even when I specifically asked, to not informing me of major milestones like the first time she went on the potty. Since I've pulled my daughter out, I have not been able to get a response from the school about getting my full refund (they only sent a check with a portion of the security deposit and no explanation on why they are not refunding me for the entire security deposit plus the days she will not be attending in July) nor a reply to any of my emails.

My daughter loves going to school. She is developing a lot…read more All the staff is very nice and caring.
