I have never met a more kind staff and owner. We needed short term daycare for our son and Tina…read morewas willing to make that happen. She accommodated our schedules and made us feel as if Hudson would be coming forever. The staff in his infant room made me feel at ease and welcomed him. They send you pictures throughout the day and you get a report at the end of the day. I am so happy I found Goddard, if even just for a short time!

When I was looking for day care for my infant, I was frustrated that I couldn't find any…read morecomprehensive reviews on local centers by real parents. So, here's me paying it forward for other busy parents who want to search for daycare: Cost: We consistently paid around $1350-1525 depending on which room our child was in. He started in infant and moved up to toddler. Pros: - Wonderful teachers. Most have degrees, and all of them clearly love children. They seem happy as employees, which is great. - Director on site is the owner. You can tell she really cares about her staff, the kids, and the families. She's extremely accommodating - we changed our schedules multiple times and she was able to help us each time. - Easily the cleanest, most updated site that we visited. - Our son loved it there! - They are great at transitioning children out of the infant room to toddler room to make the kids feel really comfortable. - Great communication with parents: they send multiple photos a day through e-mail, and keep great records of what went on each day with your child. They let you know when he hits milestones and is progressing with new skills. - Great outdoor area - Fun events (bouncy house, fire trucks coming on site, etc) - The hours are great, and extend until 6pm. - Automatic tuition withdraw is a nice option Cons: - Cost. We toured a few places, and it was the most expensive in the area, and included the least amount of "extras." - you have to bring your own bibs, sippy cups, and breakfast. For the price of tuition, I was always frustrated that I had so much work to do to get him ready for daycare in the morning. - constant messy clothes. I wish they'd invest in better art bibs/smocks, and I wish they'd provide bibs for meal time. If i forgot to send one, I knew for sure he would come home in a new outfit. - Food costs extra (about $60/month for two snacks and lunch each day) and doesn't include breakfast. - Some of the food was unimpressive at times (bread and butter for snack?), not organic, lots of breaded chicken dishes, etc Overall: the price was worth it for us, especially when he was an infant. We were really confident in the care he got, and he learned so much. We loved all of the art projects he brought home, and the communication they had with families.

My son has attended Davinci for 2 years now (Kindergarten & 1st grade). I have been in direct…read morecontact with his teachers both years which I absolutely love! I feel that is not something public school teachers are able to do given their larger class sizes. The students that attend here are gentle, smart, and sweet kids. I am SO grateful my son got in. I still can't believe it! Will add more to my review later.. have more great and detailed things to mention than I have time for at the moment .. be back soon!!

As a staff member, I feel it's important to share an honest perspective on the current state of…read moreDavinci Academy. Unfortunately, my experience has been overwhelmingly negative due to poor leadership, lack of professionalism, and an unsafe school environment. Leadership & Administration: Principal Emily Eggers is extremely unprofessional and frequently yells at staff. She has publicly called staff "backstabbers" for communicating concerns to district-level administrators and often labels teachers as unprofessional without ever observing their classrooms. It's also concerning that she has minimal in-person classroom experience, having only taught in an online setting before becoming principal. The new Dean of Students contributes to the toxic atmosphere. He seems to enjoy the authority that comes with his position but speaks negatively about teachers behind their backs, which damages morale and trust among staff. The administrative team as a whole is often absent from the building -- they're typically on site only about 50% of the time -- leaving little accountability or visible leadership. Teaching & Instruction: Instructional leadership is outdated and resistant to change. The ELA lead teacher refuses to adapt teaching methods or differentiate instruction for students with varying needs. The math department has turned over completely for the second year in a row. Last year's teachers were all fired, and the new hires this year are struggling just as much. It's extremely concerning that the school can't seem to retain qualified math teachers year after year. Several teachers are not fully licensed in their assigned subject areas. The RTI teacher, PE teacher, and tech teacher lack proper certifications, and only one of the special education teachers is fully licensed. This creates a serious problem in ensuring quality instruction and legal compliance. School Environment & Student Behavior: Student behavior is a major issue. There is frequent fighting, constant swearing, and open use of racial slurs like the N-word. These incidents are rarely handled appropriately or effectively. The administration tends to ignore or downplay discipline problems, which makes the environment unsafe for both staff and students. Overall Culture: The culture of the school is toxic, unprofessional, and unstable. Staff turnover is high, morale is extremely low, and there is very little support for teachers. Leadership fails to model professionalism or create a safe and supportive atmosphere for learning. At this point, I would not recommend Davinci Academy especially the middle school to potential staff, students, or families. Until there is a complete overhaul of leadership and a serious focus on student behavior and staff support, this school will continue to struggle.
