I am extremely disappointed with this school. During open house, they paint a picture of being…read moreaccommodating and supportive of students with IEPs and special needs, but that could not be further from the truth. The lack of safety, accountability, and proper supervision is alarming. The behavior in this school is out of control--there are constant fights, bullying, and students getting hurt, yet nothing is ever done. Incidents are repeatedly brushed under the rug. My son has been harmed multiple times since the beginning of the school year, and despite being a strong advocate, nothing has been done to protect him. The school claims to investigate, but there is never any follow-up or real action. A 7th grader was bullied so badly that students took a picture of him in the bathroom and spread it around--and still, nothing happened. Another student was body slammed outside, in front of two staff members, and was out of school for a week due to his injuries. Yet, no action was taken. Kids have to prepare themselves mentally, emotionally and physically to step foot in that school, which should not be the case. There is no sense of safety or respect in this school. The administration seems indifferent, and the well-being of students is clearly not a priority. Parents, be aware--this is not the safe, supportive environment they claim it to be. My son will not return to that school next year, and I have spoke to a good amount of parents that will be doing the same as well.

I'm going to be be the first one to call this place out on their false advertising! Driving school?…read moreHa! This place sells miracles! I have always been Terrified (with a capital T, mind you) of driving and got my permit a good five times before actually taking the plunge. Do that math. That's 10+ years! I researched driving schools in my area and happened upon QADS. I was skeptical because that's just my nature and my confidence was in the dumps, but I figured ONE LESSON WOULDN'T HURT ME. Hopefully. At least not too much. I'm so glad I did. My first time behind the wheel, Andrea was very patient with me and gave me tips. She was also very friendly and made me feel at ease, which was very important because let's not forget that Terrified bit. As I got more and more comfortable behind the wheel with both Andrea and Ray, my confidence level was given a boost. Then came the actual road test. Yeah, I figured that would come eventually. These instructors know the ins and outs of the road test and will prepare you to the best of their ability. Oh, and they're not shy to let you know whether you are ready or not. Why would you want to waste your money? You just have to trust them. I was soooo nervous the day of my test and Ray assured me I would be fine. The kicker was the car full of students just before me who had all failed (from another school, of course). I passed on the first try and was completely stunned, to tell you the truth. I never thought it would have been possible. Look, I got my license in December. It is now May. I suppose I waited to write the review just to make sure it would stick LOL. I am ever-grateful to QADS. I highly recommend them to anyone who is overly anxious and/or nervous. I would imagine they are a great resource for younger drivers as well. Their prices are very reasonable and staff are caring as all hell. Can I say that? Also, does anyone take lessons AFTER they've already gotten their license? I kinda just wanna hang out. :)

The admin staff is also incredibly warm and caring, making us feel welcome throughout the process. The only issue was with communication--it's sometimes hard to reach them by phone or get a quick call back. Still, the overall service and care far outweighed this minor inconvenience. A great school that truly cares about its students!

I am very disappointed with my experience with this driving school. After my son's first few…read morelessons, the instructor told me he did well. Following next lessons, I specifically asked how he was doing with parking and his overall driving skills because I wanted an honest assessment of whether he was truly prepared. I was not given accurate or detailed feedback about areas where he still needed improvement. I directly asked if my son was ready for his road test, and the instructor said yes. I trusted that professional judgment and moved forward with scheduling the test and paying $175 through the driving school for transportation and participation plus $80 per lesson. Unfortunately, it became very clear that my son was not actually ready for the road test. Had I been given an honest and accurate assessment, I would have invested in additional lessons instead of spending money on a test that he was not adequately prepared for. As a parent, I relied on the instructor's expertise and expected truthful guidance, especially when making decisions that involve both my child's progress and additional expenses. Based on my experience, the situation left me feeling like the focus was more on collecting additional money than on honestly preparing students for success. The experience felt more like a money grab than genuine guidance and support. I hope the school improves the way instructors communicate with parents and provide realistic assessments so families can make informed decisions and avoid unnecessary costs.

When my daughter told me that her friends wanted to sign up with a group discount, I did a quick…read moresearch on Yelp and didn't see anything concerning so I thought, "how much different could another driving school be???" Let's start off that this school was originally named RANDOLPH Driving School which had more telling reviews... The classroom time is the classroom time. There are certain things they need to cover so I would consider it to be adequate. For the parent class I learned somethings that I may have forgotten and "interesting" ways to avoid insurance hikes. The issue really starts with the availability of driving times. There is one owner who is also the only instructor and driving times are only available 10am and 12pm Monday through Saturday. So if you have a high school age student you options are limited and it took us over 6 months to have 6 road classes. Then our first session had some angst because of the owner's tardiness policy. While the instructor did arrive 15 minutes before the scheduled time, he also left 7 minutes before the scheduled time and didn't bother to pick up my daughter when she immediately called him. So that's probably a good reason for the instructor to be consistently late for every schedule road class we scheduled there after. The icing on the cake was when we finally finished the road classes and we needed to pay for the certificate release to the DMV which was an additional charge of $15. We asked who to make the check payable to and he said it was "cash only". So we requested to have a receipt which his response was he only does that at the office which we would have to wait 2 weeks for. When I showed up for the receipt, he showed me an error screen on his computer that the receipt can't be printed. I asked for a hand written receipt and he decided to print off the completion of the course which only showed the cost of the course but not the cost for the certificate release. When I asked him to hand write on the printout for the $15 he adamantly refused and said he "doesn't give receipts." So I found the sign on the front of his desk mildly amusing. So after 9 months, the only reason I could find to rate this school more than 1 star was I learned it's better for me to take a head on collision when someone is driving on the wrong side of the road to avoid insurance rate hikes...

My wife and I live in Hingham and have two children at Primrose School of Rockland. My kids, aged 3…read moreand 5, have very different personalities: Both are happy, thoughtful, and well-adjusted, but one is big, outgoing, and expressive; the other is more reserved, circumspect, and contemplative. Both of them have flourished at Primrose. They have both made big circles of the best and kindest friends. Our kids come running out of class every afternoon full of excited stores about new things they learned, built, and thought about that day. This is a place where education is taken seriously, and a love of learning is inculcated. My son, a precocious preschooler, currently reads on a third grade-level. He devours books at home. It isn't just that he's a smart kid; the anonymized test results for his class show remarkably outsized improvement for all of his classmates from the beginning to the end of the year. My kids (and my wife and I) have loved every one of their teachers, all of whom have been positively stellar. The administration is proactive, always available, and communicative. Classroom and playground facilities are new, clean, and well-maintained. We frequently recommend Primrose School of Rockland to fellow parents.
