Ms. Cavanas is amazing also Ms. Jessie (elementary director) and Ms.Asita (Head of school) are very helpful and understanding.

The school has a family feeling, we always know that our son is well looked after and we can communicate with the school and teacher anytime. I wish the Stratford family a fantastic holiday and new year. Parisa Pereira

Ms. Swathi has done a wonderful job with our child in writing, listening and vocabulary skills. The structure and individual attention Ms Swathi & Ms. Bindu provides has benefited him.

Ms. Swathi empowers kids to explore their learning capabilities, so they can be independent.

This is my second review on Quarry Lane after four years. My younger one has flourished in the past…read moretwo years here and we are incredible grateful for the nurturing environment, especially thankful to his current pre-k teachers Ms. Swati. She has helped my son mastered alphabets, phonics and foundational math skills. Beyond academics, she has also been doing a great job developing his social emotional skills. My son used to be very shy and now with her patience and understanding, he has built strong confidence when interacting with others. In addition, she is also top notch in communicating with us about the development of our son so that we know how to collaborate better with her at home and at school. We feel very fortunate to have Ms Swati as our son's teacher. Highly recommend for anyone who is looking to prepare their kids well for stepping into K. The rest of the school staffs are also wonderful. Ms. Liz, the school Director warmly greets the kids and parents every morning. She is always willing to listen and truly understands the students need. We are very grateful of her and all the school staffs to make QL a wonderful place for our kids to grow and learn.

She is a fantastic teacher and we really appreciate her.

Lydiksen Elementary School Home of the Lancers…read more The location is nestled in a beautiful neighborhood with towering trees that make you feel like you're on an adventure. The school's front lawn, planters and school garden are nicely manicured. It's a good inviting place for students and their family. My daughter was in TK (transitional kindergarten) with Mrs. Foley and TA Mrs. Kaelin. These wonderful women have gotten my daughter off to the right start. The TK class is gated off since it's the first building closest to the office and is split with a kinder class. It's near the school garden and front entrance and it's really convenient, trust me. The curriculum is awesome too! They learn lots with choice time, fundamentals, numbers/letters and cooking Friday just to name a few. The school community is inviting and welcoming. What better thing to have than moms and dads working together for their family's education. My daughter will be starting kindergarten soon and I'm confident and secure that Lydiksen Elementary has prepared her and will continue to help her grow as a student and person. Mr. Berg is the principal and good with the kids. There isn't a day my daughter doesn't say hi to him and he always returns the hello with a smile! It literally makes my daughter's day and makes her feel important and like she matters, thank you Mr. Berg! Thanks for reading!!

From the very beginning, she has been nothing short of amazing, caring, gentle, loving, and kind. Starting school was a huge transition for our little one (and us!) but Ms. Ekhlas made it a smooth experience for our family. She gave our child so much personal attention and care during those early days, helping him adjust quickly; within just one week, he was running into her arms with hugs every morning. That's when we knew she truly cares for each and every child in her classroom. Ms. Ekhlas is incredibly attentive and communicative. She regularly sends us updates and lots of adorable pictures. It's clear she puts so much thought and effort into creating a nurturing and stimulating environment. From fun learning activities to creative play, she keeps the children engaged and excited to come to school. She also goes above and beyond for the parents, planning thoughtful events like a sweet Mother's Day Brunch that made us feel so appreciated and connected to the school community. We honestly wish Ms. Ekhlas could be our child's teacher forever. Her warmth, dedication, and passion for teaching shine through in everything she does. We are endlessly grateful for her and cannot thank her enough for the love and care that she gives our baby. Ms. Ekhlas is truly the best!
