I would however challenge anyone to find a Christian among the staff, clientele, and teachers. In particular, it was found out that a teacher had been practicing a pagan ritual during the Halloween season. She had additionally invited the children and a few parents to participate (i.e. burning candles and making offerings to the dead). When "called out" about this ritual, the staff and teacher made "life very difficult" to put it mildly. This is simply one of many occurrences. Before enrolling, please do your "homework" and ask around the community. There are other options, as far as Christian schools.

My child began the summer program at VPS before entering preschool. She attended PS, Pre-K, and…read moreKindergarten before we had to move away. Since then, I've toured many school campuses to enroll her, and I can confidently say that VPS offers an exceptional academic program along with outstanding after-school options. One thing that really stood out to me was the weekly presentations my daughter did. I believe they were based on alphabet items, though I may be mistaken. Regardless, these presentations were wonderful for building confidence and public-speaking skills at an early age. The homework reinforced what the children learned in class, and the at-home projects helped them feel proud and capable just like the "big kids." The after-school programs are excellent. My daughter did imagination station, sprout and blossom, violin lessons, and homework club. It provides strong academic structure while also teaching manners, confidence, and responsibility. The staff is wonderful and truly knows every child. The only downside I experienced was when I requested a transcript for my child while applying to a new schools. I was told that transcripts were not available for those grades. I had asked if they could write a letter indicating they don't have transcripts or to create in for me but neither was done. After that, communication seemed to drop off, and it felt as though we were no longer a priority once we had left the school. Overall, I would still recommend VPS without hesitation. The tuition is also very reasonable for an IB and private school. I truly wish we could return to VPS or find another school just like it.

My husband and I made the tough decision to move our toddler from the daycare he had known since he…read morewas 6 months old to Monty's Montessori. We noticed at the last daycare, he would come home irritable have excessive rashes, dirty, along with staff communication issues, screaming at drop off, dirty/broken equipment, and so many other issues. Immediately at Monty's, we noticed a difference. The teachers are very clear, caring, and sincere. The equipment is so well maintained and shared well with classmates. Now both of my sons attend Monty's and my toddler sprints to class every morning. My infant is always smiling when he sees his teachers and both classrooms have great communication. Any questions or concerns we had out of curiosity has been answered by the front office and everyone has been extremely polite. We love how engaged the staff is with the families and how receptive our kids have responded to the changes. Our only regret is not having moved our toddler sooner and to join the Monty family years ago!

We have also previously had to disenroll our 3 littles ages 5, 4 & 3yrs from montys due to multiple…read moreissues surrounding administrative staff. (director jaimie & office secretary angelina) we had been previously pulled into the office and accused of non payment of an obscure amounts of $ equaling multiple weeks of tuition (total of $3,189) though upon back checking bank statements i was able to provide proof of not only all completed payments but multiple overcharges aswell, when provided with all of these documents ( backdated to our 1stday of registration up to current day) we were immediately met with not only hostility but a huge lack of accountability from the office staff as to where the miscommunication and or differentiating amounts had stemmed from as all childrens accounts must be enrolled through autopay upon registration through the brightwheel app. we were never given an explanation as to why we were ever overcharged and had to communicate with office staff in order to resolve all over payment issues also. following this incident not only we were continuously met with hostility from montys staff, but multiple times our kindergartener over heard private conversations pertaining to said issues being discussed openly and loudly between school staff aswell as mrs. jaimies husband. ( who turns out is not a listed employee of school, despite being on campus consistently) upon submitting our kindergartners 2 week notice (postdated for Dr.Lisa Gilfillan) we were immediately met with texts / messages from both angelina and jaimie pertaining to details stated specifically in notice. all accounts had again since been confirmed as paid and up to date, all bank statements were mailed and received, though just two days prior to our daughters last day with montys we were notified via email that if we did not submit the final payment amounts in cash / in office they would then withhold our daughters kindergarten academic records. following this email i again messaged, emailed and mailed all bank statements and proof of payment from brightwheel to montys academy aswell as dr. lisa gilfillan to which we recieved zero responses. go charter, go homeschool, go elsewhere! entire experience has been rather unfortunate as we had very high hopes for both montys and the staff.

It's a bit older and some locations need a touch-up, but I love how the staff and students value it! The MPR seemed to have gotten a remodel so I think the school is currently in a remodel phase! The front also got a fresh coat of paint and a new mural! It's good to see the district supporting the sites. As for the classrooms/rooms, again they're a little older but very spacious. Even the trailers have a lot of room to walk around. I was happy to notice each room has a smartboard, handy projector, and large tables. All the kids seemed comfortable. The lounge and working room is a bit small and crowded, but the restrooms are great in there! Most of the staff has been quite friendly and helpful, Hemmerling has a good school community.

She absolutely adored her teachers and learned so much during her time there--from writing, reading, math, and science to learning about artists and recreating their work in their own styles. It was amazing to see how excited she became about learning and how much she genuinely looked forward to going to school. The school fostered independence and respect. The classrooms were always tidy, and the teachers taught the children to take responsibility for cleaning up after themselves, practice good table manners, care for their environment, and respect their classmates and teachers. The structure and routines prepared her well for elementary school, and she developed so much confidence along the way. The teachers at MKLA care deeply about the kids, and the knowledge, encouragement, and confidence they gave her will stay with both her and us always. We are incredibly thankful to her teachers for their patience and encouragement during such an important stage of her life.

A year ago, my family and I made the daring move from Los Angeles to Beaumont. We finally started…read morelooking for a day care center for our 3 year old daughter in April, 2024. We were very nervous but knew the many advantages my daughter would reap from the experience... From the tour, my daughter and I fell in love!!! We were able to observe all the classrooms in action. Even the littles were doing arts and crafts! It was a beautiful sight. We patiently waited for her start date. And in August 12, 2024, we finally got a spot! Ms Daisy is her teacher and she's a true gift! My daughter has a lot of energy and was not used to a structured setting. But Ms Daisy has been patient and empathetic as my daughter became acclimated to this new environment. Every night, my daughter organizes her school uniform, and every morning she wakes me up excited to head to school. She comes home and shows her work with pride. She even gets excited to do her homework. My daughter absolutely loves Young Scholars and loves Ms Daisy! (The third week of August, one week after my 3 year old started), we were soooo fortunate that a spot was available for our 18 month old daughter. Before we inquired about availability, we never planned to enroll our baby girl in day care that young. But we saw how happy our 3 year old was and knew Young Scholars would be a good place for our baby to grow up at. Ms Cynthia has came into our lives as the baby's teacher, and has been a light! From enrollment, I addressed my daughter's speech as an area of concern. Both Ms Rosie and Ms Cynthia have taken the time to observe and unofficially have shared their observations. I say unofficially because providing recommendations takes time and progress reports are their "official" findings... I'm a special education teacher, I'm well aware that a school can't diagnose a child nor can they give recommendations right away. It's vital to gather data, especially when my daughter is still developing. but in the meantime, I appreciate the updates! It makes me feel heard as a concerned parent... My baby girl has been going to young scholars for one month now and this baby is making strides!! Before Ms Cynthia came into our lives, my baby would wave to signal hi/bye, she'd point when she wanted something, and would cry out of frustration when attempting to converse with us. Now, she's saying "bye-bye," "help me," "please," "agua," and the list continues!! Although my baby's speech is not where a typical 19 month baby should be, she's making growth and that's a celebration to us!! She's showing confidence when she speaks and puts effort when attempting words. I love that she gets homework because it reinforces the skills Ms Cynthia is teaching. My baby enters the classroom and greets Ms Cynthia with a hug, that shows the love and trust she has in her. & I can't forget about Ms Jobana, who's been an angel with my girls! Ms Jobana is another teacher and also supports during day care hours. My daughters usually close out the day with her, and She's so sweet and attentive! I love this place so much! This is a great place for kids to learn and grow! As an educator, I know how underpaid and challenging this job is. I love that Ms Daisy and Ms Cynthia put love into their job and it reflects on my daughter's happiness. This isn't just a school/day care, it's a second home for our kids. I'm so grateful that the universe put this school in our paths because we feel right at home.

After reading Tisha R's review, it became apparent she either suffers from amnesia or simply lacks…read moreany sort of self awareness. Given her unbelievably unhinged behavior IN FRONT OF CHILDREN and my personal experience with Young Scholar, I feel it is my moral responsibility to share what I witnessed and my personal experience with Young Scholar. A few weeks ago, I entered the school and immediately became concerned when I heard screaming. I quickly dropped my son off at his class to ensure the safety of those involved. Tisha seems to have forgotten the part when she disregarded innocent children and found it appropriate to scream at staff, belittle them, and smack items off the shelf and onto the ground. I'm baffled that this woman is more concerned with limiting screen time than modeling healthy and appropriate interactions. One ought to be more concerned with modeling good character. My son has attended this school for nearly two years and came highly recommended by a family member. Before enrolling at Young Scholar, my son was diagnosed with a speech delay. I made Ms. Rosie (THE OWNER) aware of this. The diagnosis filled me with anxiety and she handled it with sensitivity, respect, and care. She provided me with additional resources and ideas. She even requested his treatment plan to implement in the classroom. His speech quickly exploded and progressed more than it had after months in therapy. I credit Young Scholar for his progress. I find it hard to believe Ms. Rosie would ever address this sort of concern in the callous way Tisha described. It took him a short while to acclimate and there were difficult mornings. Ms. Cynthia was eager to integrate him and held him when necessary. My son is resistant to naps but she tamed that beast too. Working remotely allowed me the flexibility to pop in whenever I wanted and I rarely observed an iPad being used. They are occasionally utilized during free time and outside curriculum hours. Additionally, whenever a child receives a scrape or bump, parents are given a report and explanation as to how the injury occurred. We are asked to sign the report and the incident is put in a file. Also, the ADMIN she referred to is named Ms. Mari. My son would kidnap her and keep her forever if he could. Not only is she fantastic with the kids but you can see the love in her eyes when she speaks of them. Ms. Mari is the type of person you want to be friends with and I sincerely enjoy her beyond the care she provides to my son. Ms. Rosie is the owner. She can't provide information for a superior that does not exist. I hope this parent takes time to reflect on her conduct and takes accountability for her actions. Nothing she described warranted the behavior I witnessed.
