We feel so fortunate to have discovered Masterpiece Academy for our 8th grader. The teachers did an…read moreexcellent job preparing my son; the pace of each class was just right, it was not too overwhelming, and he especially enjoyed the lectures, particularly those by Mr. Chris. I even think he looked forward to his classes with Masterpiece Academy. When it came time to take the actual tests, he found them challenging but manageable. Thanks to the thorough preparation he received, he knew what to expect and how to structure his answers effectively. As a result, he successfully passed the exams for AOS and Thomas Jefferson High School. I highly recommend Masterpiece Academy to anyone looking for quality academic preparation. Special thanks to Miss Krishna and the entire staff for helping our children excel. If I could, I'd give them 500 stars!

Our recent experience with Masterpiece Academy highlighted a lack of experience and clarity in…read moreprogram execution. There was insufficient transparency around time commitment, what the program fees included, and overall expectations, which made planning difficult for families. Communication and coordination were inconsistent, and several processes appeared underdeveloped. Of particular concern was how a decision impacting a child was handled and communicated, which did not demonstrate the level of care, empathy, or age-appropriate judgment expected in a youth program. We hope leadership uses this feedback to improve structure, communication, and clearly define scope, fees, and responsibilities. Families may want to ask detailed questions about program expectations and policies before enrolling.

There are SO many ways to connect with the VAA community, through worship, sports, theater - you name it! We highly recommend this wonderful school!

Our son started going to Guidepost since June 2021. We could not be happier from his school and…read moreespecially his lead guide Ms Nosheen. She has been nothing but patient, loving, caring and responsible with our child. He has grown from a baby into a toddler under her supervision and love. She puts in the time and effort into each child individually based on the child's needs. She also counsels us when we are stressed about something regarding the child, it feels like we got a teacher and a counselor in her. For us, Guidepost Montessori is the place to be and look no further if you are searching for the Montessori environment for your child and if your child is less than 3 years old, you cannot go wrong with Ms Nosheen's class, however, we know that all teachers are great because our son loves all the teachers he interacts with. Thank you Guidepost and thank you Ms Nosheen for everything!!!

We recently moved to the Broadlands area from out of state. While we were still in out of state,…read morewe began our search for a preschool for my 4-year-old daughter and a before/after school program for my older son. This was very stressful since we did not know the area here very well. I called many schools in the area for pricing and to learn more about their programs. When I called the Merit School of Broadlands, I got to speak with the Director, Caitlin, who was not only able to tell me all about the programs at Merit and answer my many questions, she also shared with me important information about the Broadlands community and the Northern VA area. The fact that she took the time to discuss this with me, not even knowing if I was going to enroll my children, demonstrates a genuine kindness and customer service that I was really impressed with. When I was able to finally tour the school with my 4-year-old daughter, I was impressed with how the Assistant Director, Jessica, was so warm and welcoming towards her. She introduced her to the teacher and let her spend some time in the classroom while I went on the tour. In the front lobby/office area there are large TV screens that show what is happening in the classrooms. It is great for parents who just want to check in on their child without disturbing them. During this tour, I got to see how my daughter was adjusting and interacting with the other students by watching her on the monitors rather than hovering over her. I also really appreciated the security of the building. Each family has a unique code to enter the facility, so outsiders cannot just walk in. In addition, I liked how the school is new and everything was very clean. They also have an amazing playground, which is definitely a bonus for the kids! After touring the Junior Kindergarten classroom, the School Age classroom, and learning more about the curriculum and extracurriculars, I decided to enroll both of my children. My children have now been at the Merit School of Broadlands for about 2 months and we are very pleased with our decision. My youngest is in the full day JK class and she loves it! We are very pleased with how much she has learned in the short time she has been there. She's even learned some Spanish! She comes home happy every day. I also get updates and pictures throughout the day of what the class is learning and pictures of my daughter engaged in different activities or play. It gives me peace of mind to know that she is in good hands. The Before/After School Program is amazing for working parents. My son is able to ride the Merit bus to his elementary school and it picks him up in the afternoon. I also get updates of when he leaves on the bus to go to school and when he arrives back at Merit in the afternoon. My son feels so grown up in the school age room with lockers and computers to use. When the kids get there they have snack, homework time, and outside time. In addition, the Merit School offers other activities for the children. Both of my children have been able to participate in field trips. They have spirit weeks and family events to promote a sense of community. They even host Parent's Night Out events which is wonderful for parents and super fun for our kids. Most recently, they hosted a Scholastic Book Fair for the students. The Merit School of Broadlands has been great for our family and has helped to make the transition to Virginia an easy one for our children.

The tour was very well done however, the expectations were not clearly laid out. The potty training…read moreexpectations for three year olds is not clear until after you pay your non-refundable deposit. They expect the young three year olds to be able to potty independently which means they go their own, wipe and then pull up their own pants. They also have to wash hands independently. If your child soils themselves you are called to come pick them up. They say they do not help clean them up or assist the child in anyway. For working parents and any parent of a young child who is potty trained/training these are some very lofty and stressful requirements. The deposit is of course non-refundable and you have to ask yourself at the end of the day, how many of these are they gaining when parents find out the true expectations after the fact. But of course, there is a wait list...very disappointed and will not be sending my children here but the preschool happily kept the $125 deposit (tell me what happens to that money? )
