Child-centered, creative, and interdisciplinary curriculum with loving and skilled teachers, an excellent afterschool program, and a lovely sense of place within Beacon Hill. Grownup community is warm and laidback, with a genuine shared emphasis on raising kind humans who love to learn. Proof that you can learn in an innovative, progressive way and still get great test scores!

Throughout those seven years, she loved school - she was excited about learning and was empowered to be the confident student that she continues to be today. The teachers and administration are intentional about getting to know each child individually to ensure that each child's educational needs are met. Advent prepared my daughter to be the motivated, dedicated and responsible student that she is today as she continues to thrive at Noble and Greenough School. Many thanks to Advent!

My own children couldn't wait to go to school each day and they were so prepared for Kindergarten!! And to have a school that goes through Grade 6 in the heart of Boston is such a gift.

The school takes the role of helping shape the children's character extremely seriously and it shows in the children as they grow through the years. The families that choose Park Street are exceptional and the community is second to none. The teachers and administration truly care about the kids and want them to succeed not only while they are students at the school but also as they go on to their next schools. My children feel extremely loved and valued. The curriculum is challenging and yet the kids truly love to learn and the staff have an incredible way of making learning fun. I cannot say enough wonderful things about the school or the community.

I loved LS South End. We joined shortly after it opened in 2013 and spent almost 5 years at the…read moreschool. We went through every class room and had a very positive experience. Like most daycare's there is a turnover in staff whether it is the teachers or the directors. We lucked out however and pretty much had teachers that were there long term and were very highly regarded. These teachers became a second mom to my child - they taught her things I never would have dreamed about teaching my child had she been in a home setting. I give them full credit for potty training my child at 25 months. We have had the teachers in my home and they've been invited to birthday parties. A few teachers even took the time to visit my child when she was in Children's Hospital for a week (after they finished their day). No daycare is perfect, don't let them tell you any different. The director we had prior to leaving was Meghan who was wonderful (probably my favorite out of all of them - I think she might have been # 4 over the course of our time there). No matter what daycare you look into or reviews you read there will always be a few with 1 star. Don't let that deter you from visiting this center and checking it out. We all parent differently and have different expectations on what we need or want for our children. My child was loved in this school for a long time - it was a sad day when we left to progress to Kindergarten. I credit the fact that my child is thriving in Kindergarten to her experience at Little Sprouts. Also - give your child time to adjust to a new setting. Children can't and won't adapt overnight. My child cried frequently at drop off for years (master manipulator) I was no sooner in my car driving to work in the mornings and I would get a text from the teacher with a pic of my child smiling. At the end of the day she didn't want to leave! We were at the school alongside many of the same families over the years. From my experience the only time folks left was because they moved, job situation changed, or the kid moved to K1. Feel free to PM me with any specific questions. Happy to answer them!

There needs to be training especially when parents are spending their hard earned money for greater education and respect! 51A filed. Contacted BBB.

My daughter will be leaving this year to attend preschool - kindergarten. I feel that she has learned so much from Little Sunflowers that she will have no problem adjusting to her new school. At Little sunflowers she has done activity books, arts and crafts and they even have a music class. The environment is small and loving and for that reason the children get a lot of one on one attention. You get a written report everyday informing you of your childs day. Breakfast and lunch and snack are provided. The kids love it and are loved. I cannot say enough about Little Sunflowers!! Highly recommend it.

Mr. Hodes (President) lacks knowledge and experience in how to appropriately interact with families from other backgrounds, other than his own (white). In 10th grade, my son got into a physical altercation with another child. This was an isolated incident. I do not instill violence in my children. There was a "zero tolerance" policy in place. So they suspended him and naturally I was enraged by their inability to be open to another approach/ perspective. I emailed and met in person about my concerns. I researched and provided reputable resources to support my concerns. Additionally, my son has always struggled academically, due to being formally diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia. He just had a most recent psychological testing by my district that further supported key components that should have urged them to reevaluate their policy. After all that time, energy and effort, it amounted to nothing. Instead, Mr Hodes personalized my advocacy and embraced his ego and privilege of being a white! How typical! Later that same year, I came across him at my sons basketball game. He looked me right in my face with disgust and couldn't maintain his professionalism, especially given his title. He is a non entity, so I found humor in it and was satisfied seeing him for who he really is. Then Mariann Hogan was my son's guidance counselor! What a joke! I have my MSW and basic skills to create a healthy experience under the scope of a guidance counselor was not present. Each year, a new academic support plan was to be developed. I was only able to get two plans out of four years (freshman and sophomore year). Half the time the teachers didn't adhere to the whole purpose of the academic plan. The worst of it all is senior year, during the most critical time of the college application process, she takes three weeks off. There was no one to take her place so my son had the crucial support he needed. This was an extremely stressful time, which should make sense to the average school personnel. To no surprise, my son backed out of the idea of college. Mrs Hogan sent a very strong message with her careless absence and lack to interpersonal skills to have built an appropriate relationship with my son. The whole school needs to get revamped and embrace Critical Race Theory. Culturally, so lost!

Who really reads the whole thing anyhow??!!! She still fails to leave out that my son attended 4 days not 2 weeks as she claims in her insulting letter! She also leaves out how her school recommended my son stay for a 3rd year bc he wasn't ready for kindergarten even though he was eligible! She is greedy and wanted more students which equaled more $$$ and took advantage of the fact that I trusted them and wanted what was best for my son!!! She could have given me a heads up that my son would not have benefited from a 3rd year in her school his new class was filled w/ babies!! Nothing wrong w/ it but not for him, however she was just going to sit back quiet and cash my checks all school year. An ethical person would have said something! Not her though. Also, when I emailed her about my change of heart she could have given me a heads up of the 700$$ charge!! I emailed her about reimbursement w/ no response for over a month!! Don't be fooled she may have followed her "handbook" but nothing she did was right!
