My daughter has been attending an elementary school in the Mad River Local district for the last 3…read moreyears. I really can't say enough good things about the district! Schools and faculty take the time to know your child and family. They have regular behavior rewards,lots of extra curriculars and high parental involvement. I would recommend Mad River to anyone looking for a quality school district for their children.

It is not an exaggeration to say that we loved the Antioch School so much we relocated across the…read morecountry for it. We were a family living in Los Angeles, raising 2 young kids and had learned enough about the values of grit, self-directed learning, and raising empowered kids that we knew the right school environment was of the utmost importance to us. The problem was, the only kinds of schools in Los Angeles that offer that kind of education cost LITERALLY 20-30 thousand dollars a year. For PRESCHOOL. That is insane, and it was impossible for us to consider. But when we discovered the Antioch School, their incredible teachers, the grounds, the philosophy, the history, etc. AND saw that it was not only much less expensive, but offers financial aid to nearly 50% of it's students, it sealed the deal for us. We moved here and have had our oldest in the school for 2 years and his transformation has been incredible. Getting to watch his social skills and capacity for play and learning, trying new things, etc. It's the greatest gift we could give him (and ourselves as parents.) If you're a parent who believes that the modern public system of over-testing and lack of exploration for kids is NOT the solution to raising well-adjusted, smart, capable kids or if you believe that playing outdoors is more important than spending 8 hours a day at a desk, this is the school for you. And you won't find a better one for hundreds of miles around.

I can't rate the school on it's education factor or anything of the like. This review is strictly…read morefor the building of the Mason High School itself. I went to watch a mock dance competition in the auditorium and WOW.. this school is huge, and amazing. I'm guessing if they put this much money into the school, the staff has to be top notch. It's a beautiful school with amazing and clean facilities. The auditorium was large and it felt as if I should be paying an admission to come and watch this event here. There was a swim meet going on the same day, and I couldn't believe they had a pool inside the school. It was packed upstairs so I can only imagine what that area looked like. If you are heading to the school for an event, I'd say you are in for a nice surprise.

Two of my kiddos have been going to TC Naz (Tipp City Pre-School Learning Center) for over a year…read more They both enjoy their time at TC Naz, have made friends and have been well cared for by the staff. In my opinion, TC Naz is not the most education forward or highly-organized facility, but I can say the care for the kids comes first. They have taken good care of my kids and provided them a clean, supervised place to learn, play and grow. The current staff has shown nothing but love and kindness to my entire family.

Our experience started off great, as they seemed kind and flexible and the center is attractive and…read morespacious and in a church. It turned into the worst experience we have ever had with childcare. Starting with most of the staff. When I dropped off my infant son in the mornings, most of the time the main teacher kept her back to me, did not greet me or my son. Not a nice way for my baby to start his day! She is anything but maternal and friendly, as an infant teacher should be. As a whole, they are very understaffed and I could sense the stress it caused and saw it in the lack of good care my children were getting. I had both of my kids enrolled there and they rarely brought home artwork. The "preschool" is really more of a babysitting gig. Except for a couple of very good teachers there, most of them just sit around, not interacting with the kids, not seeming to like their jobs, disengaged and not trying to get to know the children or entertain them. The WORST part of the whole experience was the fact that my three year old daughter was physically bullied by a five year old girl in her class. Yes, they have a five year old in class with three year olds. There were three instances of physical attacks on my daughter. The school did not take it seriously or do what they said they would do to protect my daughter. We met with the Preschool Committee because the Director was especially useless and truly only defended the bully. And not only that but the teachers and the Director Jim also started to retaliate against my three year old! Writing up notes about if she took a toy from another child, or raised her voice! When I never even received a documented note about the time the five year old bully bent my daughter's finger back so far that it caused her pain, and it was intentional! I was shocked. But I was even more shocked when during the meeting with the Preschool Committee, one of the "christian" gentleman on the committee who was seated directly across the table from me lost his temper and stood up quickly, leaned as close as he could get to me, slammed his hand down on the table SO loud, and shouted at me. I was horrified and scared for my own safety. The Director was seated right there and I immediately asked if that behavior is acceptable and he just shrugged. I pressed him for an answer and he only said "I can't speak for him." These are supposed to be Christians. These are the members of the Preschool Committee! I could go on and on but I will stop there. Avoid this center at all costs. They are cheap, and it's for a reason. Crap care for your kids. Pay more and send your kids to a center when they will actually be nurtured, learn, and be kept safe. My children did not receive that level of care here at Tipp City Church of the Nazarene Preschool. I have careful documentation of all my allegations here to back up each claim. This all happened about a month ago, so I have had time to cool down from being angry and this review is written solely out of my concern to prevent other children and families from ending up in a nightmare like what we experienced.
