Our kids went to MSE for about 1,5 years. Due to personal circumstances we had to move from…read moreColorado to Texas without prior notice. This resulted in us informing the school, 2 months before the new school year started about our move. We had several interactions with Ms. Chong, who helped us as good as she could within he boundaries set by Mark Gustavson. It became clear to us that the school was planning on enforcing the contract signed by my wife (I already saw issues potentially coming and did not sign the contract) in Feb to reenroll our kids into the new schoolyear, with pushing hard to sign or there would be no space left in the classroom. They really expect us to pay a full year's tuition of both kids even though I never signed the contract and we moved before the schoolyear even started. (They claim its damages, yet for preschool there is a waiting list and my youngest son spot was filled within 1 week, also the spot for my oldest kid was filled by another student). Last year they had a tuition insurance in their contract, but somehow without warning this year is has been removed and could no longer be used, how convenient. Now a couple months in they are making threats with lawyers, collections and arbitration (of course since these are not public) after they refused to contact me for a call on the matter. The Empathic capabilities of Mark are non-existing. Also, when our oldest started his new year in a new school, we found out that MSE did a horrible job in education. He was behind 10month of 12 in reading. MSE only had 6 kids in his years classroom yet they were incapable of noticing he had reading issues due to tracking problems. Now that he has special glasses he caught up and is ahead of his pears in reading skills. MSE is not a cheap private school so I do think we should be expecting more of them than what they provide. The only thing I can give to the people in evergreen, be aware when enlisting and trusting your kids to this school, they don't care about the well-being of your kids nor their education. All they care is about taking your money. We will push this case to court and see what MSE is allowed to do within Colorado laws and what action we can take for paying the full years tuition and not providing the actual quality of education they pretend to provide. Updates will follow as this case goes along.

Our children have thrived in the school room, something we attribute to the culture of the school, the teachers, Dr. Hudson, parents and students alike.

We did not have a pleasant experience at Evergreen Academy. We experienced various safety issues…read morewhile in attendance at EA. The staff to student ratio was out of compliance with state rules and regulations. Most mornings at drop-off, only one EA staff member was present in the building with 10-13 kids of various ages; 2-3 infants in the mix. Student/Staff ratios and other safety concerns, such as placing infants to sleep on their stomachs, reusing the same bottle several times throughout the day, babies sleeping on unsupported pillows on the floor, teachers playing on cellphones and not attending to the kids were brought to the attention of the director/owner, who became defensive and dishonest after we brought forth our concerns. Finding a safe, affordable, and stable learning environment is a stressful task for parents. The state provides licensing standards and now makes all complaints and violations available to parents: http://www.colorado.gov/apps/jboss/cdhs/childcare/lookup/index.jsf
