As my child finishes his last year at Shenker, I thought it was only appropriate to leave a review. Moving to Vegas has been challenging in so many areas. Whether it has to do with education or healthcare (both of which were significantly better in Orange County). I enrolled my child at Shenker after talking to all the parents I would meet at the park in my neighborhood who would sing the school's praises. I am happy to say, Shenker lived up to my expectations. My child does not speak English as his primary language, and I was worried about how that would affect him. Also if I might add, I would get unsolicited comments from other educators concerning my refusal to speak English to my child at home. I am an educator ( I have a Masters in education and another Masters in school counseling) and I knew he would pick up English just as I did. Upon meeting with Dr. Sharon, he agreed with my approach concerning my son learning two languages, and put me at ease. My son has greatly improved academically and socially at Shenker. He is so happy to go to school, and everyone in the front office knows his name, as they do with ALL the students that attend their school. Dr. Sharon has truly been a joy to work with, and I see how much he cares for his staff and for his students at school. He knows every student's name and he works with every family to accommodate their needs. I honestly believe this school's success comes from the top down. I want to thank Shenker and Dr. Sharon for giving me peace of mind in the most important aspect of my life; my child's safety and education. Yours truly, Samvel's mom. read more

We love Shenker! My son has been attending the school for over a year starting at 7 months old. I was so nervous to drop him off as a baby, but Ms Debora is such an amazing caregiver. The class was organized, communicative, and I felt so at ease knowing my baby was in their hands. Now he is in the Ducklings with Ms Alyssa and I can't say enough positive things about her and her teaching style. My son has learned so much going to this school even though he has only just turned two, he is counting past 10, reading letters, coming home with new learnings every day. We are excited to continue to watch him grow and develop at Shenker. read more

Back to update my review after my daughter graduated from the infants class! I have never known kinder, hardworking, knowledgeable, gentle and caring individuals in my life than the staff in butterflies infant class. They truly care for the babies like they are their own! I have referred multiple families here to Shenker including my own family members! I can't thank the ladies in the infant room enough! My daughter is ahead of all of her milestones, walking by 1, and is doing great in the next class. The ladies put so much love and care into engaging the babies and helping them learn and develop. I'm so proud of my little one and how far she's come since we first enrolled her at 14 weeks. All of those ladies deserve all of the kudos in the world! read more

Shenker Academy - 1st birthday celebration' - Elementary Schools Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Shout out to Ms Marilyn and Ms Claudia for always going above and beyond during Pipers stay in the Butterfly Room. They provided so much love and support to my wife on Day 1 and reassurance that Piper is in good hands. They treated Piper and all the babies as VIPs, which put us eager parents at great ease. They were a big impact on her growth and development. Their kindness and compassion transferred into Piper. Piper till this day cannot walk pass the butterfly room without going inside to say hi to her two favorite teachers. Such lovely people. read more

My older child went to Shenker 5 years till he graduated a year ago and my 3 year old just started her third year. I'm so happy I chose this school for my little ones, I'm more than please from the education level of the school and the loving and caring for my kids. The Teachers, staff and principal are above and beyond great and I will highly recommend Shenker Academy to anyone that care for their kids and achievements. Thank you Shenker Academy read more

Our son went to the school for two years and he just graduated from pre-K. The school is amazing from day one. The administrative staff is super friendly and supportive. The teachers have been great for both years. Shout out to Ms Chloe, Ms Jerrie, Ms MaryAnn, and Ms Merideth. Thank you so much for your love and your care and your kindness towards our son and other kids. My son has learnt so much and the teachers have been keeping us updated on a daily basis of his progress as well as informed us of any situation or incident with him. Student reports were very comprehensive which really helped us understand every aspect that our son was growing or falling behind. We loved the program over there. The kids had the opportunity to learn not only academic subjects but also had a chance to participate in social, musical, and other areas. We loved the graduation event. Some schools do not offer graduation ceremony which can be disappointing for the children. It's good to see the children see themselves rewarded for their work and be proud of their accomplishments and dreams for their future when they see the value in their work. Thank you for the little graduation gift bag. So many good memories concealed in the bag to cherish. Getting rewarded is a good encouragement for little children. The teachers have also kept us updated on a daily basis of school events and class events with consistent communication. The administrative staff also reached out to us when something reported by a teacher. We are so glad we sent our son to the school. By the way the campus has great facilities that are well equipped and the environment is very clean and safe for the children. There are more teachers in a classroom than any other schools that I have seen. Thank you Shenker Academy. It's so sad that our son no longer continues the journey with the school. But we wish the campus would offer elementary school as well so that we would have kept our son over there. Oh we also loved the photo circle app that snaps so many live photos of the children working in the class on a daily basis. What a great idea! read more

I have never dealt with anyone with 0 professionalism and lack of class like Ms. Beth Millers, Head of Shenker Academy. She very rudely answered my phone call with her, did not let me speak and hung up on my face. If the nature of the call is not to her liking, she is rude, and extremely unprofessional and the Temple should most definitely not want a person like her as the face of their school much less with the title of "Head of school" . I hope the Temple sees this as a serious matter, if she treats people she does not know this way, imagine her staff. read more

I had two kids at that school. After few months we withdrew them from that place. There were a lot of issues especially with the Kinder class. The office has no idea what's going on in each classroom. They put kids in a "box" how they supposed to behave , there is no point of flexibility. Our son has some issue but we were called to the office for trivial matters not only for those big ones. And they were really good in a big words how they will help us but really you are there alone. Kinder main teacher was really good and tried to help my son to adjust to that place but with all the program and no place for flexibility it didn't work out. If you have curious, strategic thinker and sporty kids it's not place for them. It's too academic, kids suppose to learn by play not by stricte structure . The kids learned a lot there but their mental health and ours as parents suffered. read more

I have been eyeing this school for the last three years and sad to say that this school seems to discriminate against children with medical and religious exemptions. I was welcomed to do a tour since there are openings for summer to start this May. This is what they initially told me. They obtained all information until they asked for our updated vaccinations, once I stated having medical exemption legally within the state of Nevada, they completely changed their attitude, and told me they are fully booked for the summer and fall, and that they don't know when they'll call me when they're open again. I was told that I was given the wrong information in the beginning regarding the openings for summer and fall, and that they're completely booked. Since I shared my personal experience on Yelp, employees from this school went out of their way to release my private information to parents and volunteers from this school to speak wrongly about me online at the place where I work based on what I shared regarding the miscommunication and misinformation I experienced via phone in the mist of being put on hold multiple times, then later being disconnected. As I stated previously I have been eyeing this school because I heard nothing but the best in summerlin location. I am sure the owner of Shenker is accepting of receiving feedback regarding his staff, and does not stand behind the harassment and unprofessional conduct I received over the phone and online. read more

SHADY BUSINESS!! NEVER GET ON THEIR WAITLIST. THEIR WAITLIST SIGN UP SHEET HAS FINE PRINTS THAT WILL CHARGE YOU $500 EARLY TERMINATION FEE, $1,355 30 DAY NOTICE FEE. NOW THE COLLECTION AGENCY IS PURSUING US WHEN WE JUST THOUGHT WE SIGNED UP FOR A DAYCARE WAITLIST WITH NO DATE GUARANTEED. They now claim that we signed an enrollment contract. But we never knew we signed the enrollment contract during our brief first visit. Who in the right mind would sign an enrollment contract in Mar 2023 when the next opening MAY be in May 2024 (no date guaranteed)??? Then one day they decided to put us down for a date that we never agreed to and started counting 30 days. A normal decent business would call and make sure we agree to the date especially it's been more than 9 months since we signed up for the waitlist and we never heard from them. No business would blind side their customers let alone new parents with a lot of financial needs this way. JUST TRUST ME AND NEVER EVER SIGN ANY THING WITH THEM. WHAT YOU THINK MAY BE A SIMPLE WAITLIST MAY BE A "LEGALLY BINDING" ENROLLMENT CONTRACT WITH A HEFTY PENALTY. We toured the place in Mar 2023. They said there may be an opening in May 2024 and will get back to us if there are openings. They told us to sign a paper to get on their waitlist. We did so like we did with other daycares. They never warned us that we'd be charged if we decide not to take a spot that they give us. Thought it was just a waitlist. They never reminded us of the fine prints or warn us that we'd get penalized if we decide not to take the spot when they call. The facilities looked old. Also it did not have cameras for parents to watch their kids. We only got on their waitlist just to hear back if there are openings in case we haven't found another option. Then we decided to move where Shenker academy was too far from. We forgot about the waitlist until Jan 2024. We get an email with the invoice of $1,855 threatening that unless we pay on the day of they'd send it to collection and ruin our credit. Our kid never set foot in the place. They did not render any service. We never enrolled. We just simply got on their waitlist as they instructed us to do. And using that they are trying to get us to pay them $1,855 at the knife point. It's misleading and frankly a terrible business practice that no other facilities do. read more

I will like to start off by saying the Lady who showed us around was great really sold us on it the curriculum and we liked the interaction with the kids. But the "Principle " Dr Sharon, I found very arrogant rude and abrasive. I stated I had a few clients who children attended the school he asked" if I was a lawyer". Then when I asked about a binder common core he pulled out, He said " it's not a bad word " I feel he didn't care for anything other than my job title, and his agenda and when questioned about any part of his curriculum or importance to our family he was abrasive and would Not get off his practiced perfectly speech. UPDATE: The fact that you have decided to make a comment in return to a honest review shows your arrogance, as well as lack of respect for hard working parents who are trying to better their child's education, And pay your salary. Also abrupt behavior my mother-in-law was with me, there was no abrupt behavior . I believe you are making false accusations because the truth hurts. 2Nd Update: I received a email in the Am stating because of my honest review he is considering or harassment and defamation , I would be very careful because o If you have a honest experience and review it he make threats towards you and your family on Social media BEWARE! I toured a dozen schools in this Valley and he gave me the worst experience I ever thought I would have for my three-year-old I hope the administration sees this. read more

First of all, let me say how I love that everyone knows my kids' names and ALWAYS says hi to them when we arrive and leave. We feel part of a family of sorts at Shenker. My daughter began last summer at Shenker in Pre-K with Little Explorers. Her teacher, Ms. Jenny, was so good to her and helped her grow more than I thought she could! Both academically and emotionally. You could tell she loves her students, and my daughter loved going to school every day! She was so sad on her last day of Pre-K because she said she was going to miss Ms. Jenny so much! I love that relationships are important at Shenker. My 2 year old son started in late November after we unexpectedly lost our sitter we had had for years. Dr. Sharon was so accommodating and we were so blessed we were able to get him in! It was a real struggle for my son because he was not used to it and would cry daily, but his teachers in Barnyard Pals were AMAZING with him and truly loved him! AND my daughter's teachers would go check on him often to make sure he was ok. It really put my heart at ease knowing this! He ended up LOVING it and he grew SO much! Plus, they pretty much potty trained him, so that was an added bonus! They both still attend for the summer and will be there for the 3s and Kinder! They both love school and I only wish they had room to open an elementary because I would 100% send them! read more

We were on the waitlist and are in!!! My son has been there for a little over a month, and I cannot express how thankful I am that we waited for the perfect school. Dr.Sharon, the entire office staff, and my son's teacher, ms. Michelle are some of the sweetest people. "I had a good, good, good, goooooooood day!!!" Is what my son tells me every day when I pick him up. That says it all. read more

For all the parents looking to invest the time and money into their children's early education I highly recommend this school. Public school has always been the plan for our kiddos. We decided to spend the $$$ so our kids could get a jump start on their education, learn to respect their teachers and classmates and discover a love for learning. Our oldest just registered for Kindergarten, where she she scored a 100% on the Brigance test and is reading. I truly believe that Shenker Academy and their amazing staff put their students first and it shows. We enrolled our youngest when he was two and he loves there, he will follow in his sisters footsteps! She will be skipping into her first day of kindergarten with confidence in her ability to learn and a respect for her teachers and her classmates! read more

Shenker Academy - Elementary Schools Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Since both of my children attended Shenker Academy since 6 months old (one graduated and is currently attending Doral Academy, the other one is still at Shenker) I can share with you that the buzz about this school in Las Vegas is huge for a reason! The Head of School was managing schools in Texas and in Tennessee, and he runs this school as an elite private school!!! The curriculum is advanced, my children do 1st and 2nd grade math, reading and writing are two grade level advanced, and their creative art, programs, and tech classes are more of a Texas private school type and less of a Vegas type. No wonder why this school attracts law enforcement, physicians, educators, judges, politicians, business owners like me, and anyone that fits the philosophy of the school. I have businesses in New York, California, Utah, and let me tell you, this is not to be found anywhere! And the tuition is really affordable. read more

Today was our last day at Shenker Academy and we will miss you all dearly. Thank you for caring, teaching and loving my child. We can't thank you all enough. Thank you, Mrs. Casey, Miss Michelle and Miss Lauren in the front office. Thank you Mrs. Tiffany, Mx Darielle, Miss Wendy, Miss Maryann, Miss Lori, Mr, Andreas, Miss Mariyah and Ms. Davis. I'm leaving with tears in my eyes because of how amazing you all were. read more

My son has been at Shenker for about three months as an infant and we have had an incredible experience, and can't wait to be part of the Shenker family for years to come! The staff are fantastic, friendly, responsive, and organized. The teachers go above and beyond and truly love the kids, thanks to them my son is happy, healthy, rested, fed, playful, and learning so well thanks to the Butterflies room. I can't say enough about the Butterflies room instructors and all they do for the children. They worked hard with my son, who was resisting napping, and now he is a fantastic napper. They also are just the nicest, most thoughtful people and all of them are saints! Also, I am always impressed with Dr. Sharon who legitimately seems to know every single child's name and personal details about them, showing that he truly cares and takes the time to know the kids. Shenker is also always keeping the kids (and parents) engaged with fun activities throughout the year, crafts, etc. and I have to say that when compared with my other friends at different schools, Shenker just far and away seems to be doing so much to make the kids' lives better and enrich them as humans. Overall, I wish I could give Shenker six stars! read more

We have a 4 year old at shenker, who has attended since 12 months. We have a baby, who will start in January also. The teachers, staff and principal are the kindest, and most caring around. They all know my kids' and my family's names and will greet each of us daily. My daughter has surpassed her age level in all areas because of shenker. I wouldn't trust any other preschool with my kids. read more

The best pre school in the Summerlin area , I like that the school teach the kids multiple language and the benefit is great and friendly staff . read more

I have had my almost 3 year old son enrolled at Shenker for almost a year. I could not say enough good things about this school so if you are looking for a school that will transform your child and enable them to blossom and grow and learn and play and love, this is your only choice. I moved to Vegas from LA and let me tell you there is no school like Shenker anywhere in LA no matter what the cost. My son was enrolled in the 18 mo program first at 2 1/2 days a week (all I could stand being away from him). He spoke maybe 10 words when he started at 2 years 3 mo old and now, 9 mo later, he not only speaks in full sentences but they are well thought out and consciously spoken. He has made friends, dealt with the separation anxiety by way of his amazing teachers in now 2 different classes (he started summer in the 2's), and is now getting assistance with potty training. On that note, his teacher took me aside a few weeks ago and let me know the reasons she thought my son was ready for PT and she was spot on. Shenker is a very special place. The classrooms are well thought out, the staff there to ensure parents and children alike are well taken care of (sometimes the mommies cry more than the kids!), the curriculum and layout of their days are so wonderful, not too structured but not too "let the kids decide everything" kind of a place. I looked at the usual schools here in Vegas i.e. TBS, challenger, etc. Shenker is by far and way the best, at least for our needs. We are so happy here. read more

Highly recommend! My 4 year old daughter has been attending the Wonder Kids class with 2 Amazing teachers, Ms Kijai & Ms Darielle. They are a blessing. So easy to talk to. They accommodate my child in any way she needs, and fulfill all my requests. I'm so thankful for these ladies. Communication is fantastic. I'm very impressed with the progress in only a few short months. The things my daughter comes home telling me blows my mind! I am more than confident she will breeze through Kindergarten. At this rate, probably can skip kinder! My daughter is happy & motivated to go to school everyday. She loves her class & her teachers. She has fun everyday! The mobile apps keep me updated daily. And I get beautiful awesome pics of my daughter almost daily. Love this. I love everything about this school. From the curriculum, structure, schedule, security, to the front office & staff. All the ladies, and Dr. Sharon greet every child by name. They are all friendly, always smiling, and fun to talk to. Casey, you're my girl, and I am especially thankful for you my friend! Xo read more

This is the type of school that Mr Rogers would be proud of. Dr Sharon and his team have an amazing curriculum and care so much about their students. They remember every detail about our son and made him feel so comfortable to be a part of the Shenker family. He has not only learned academically, but also through their direction, has learned interpersonal skills and developed a sense of curiosity which will serve him well for the remainder of his academic career and beyond. They accept and encourage individuality to let children grow into themselves. Can't say enough wonderful things about Shenker. read more

Shenker Academy is truly the best place to send your kiddo for early childhood education. My son has special needs and Shenker Academy welcomed him with open arms into an inclusive and loving environment. Dr.Sharon is truly an impeccable school director and his hard work shows through the way the teachers interact with the students and the way administration communicates with the parents. My son loves going to school and has developmentally made huge leaps while attending Shenker. His teachers are phenomenal and truly aid each student in their own growth process showing so much love and compassion every step of the way. We are so thankful for Shenker Academy and the entire Shenker family and recommend them time and time again. read more

The school was very dirty at the time of my tour and I know a friend of mine who has his boys there and they boys goes there 2 days and they get sick ' something from the school' and have to stay home with mom for a week , they have already been in so much antibiotics that I feel bad for them, read more

I love Shenker. My kid loves Shenker. We are in our second year here and I couldn't be happier. When we first started I was very nervous as my son hasn't been in any care expect for my own but his teachers took care of him like he was their own. Ms.Gen, Kim and Diblas are amazing ! Dr.Sharon had been nothing but helpful, I am very direct about my wants and needs for my child and he has been accommodating and flexible in every sense of the word. He is always willing to lend an ear and help in whatever way he can. I recommend this school every time I am asked ! My son has thrived since he started and I can't wait to see what the future holds for him here. Also as someone who has gone through financial issues, Dr.S has helped and guided next steps along the way and been very gracious with us. read more

I learned about Shenker Academy through extensive online research! I finally came across Shenker Academy through Yelp and was pleased to read all the positive reviews from parents, so I decided to check out the school. My daughter grandparents (on both sides) expressed their concern that she is too young to attend school. "Why pay for school, when you have both sets of grandparents that can watch her?" I didn't listen, I went with my gut and I can honestly say I made the best decision. Even both sets of grandparents are impressed with her improvement. Now, I rarely write reviews on any business, but Shenker deserves a raving review. My daughter started attending Shenker for the 2018/2019 calendar year and she absolutely loves it! We have our moments when she doesn't want me to leave her (morning drop-off), but aside from that she is excited to be with other children her age, learning, playing and experiencing new things. Ms. Kayla and the other teachers treat my daughter with such care and genuinely cares for her. I trust my daughter is in good hands with Shenker staff. My daughter will continue to go here in the next upcoming years. I would highly recommend Shenker Academy. read more

I had to remove my daughter from Merryhill because she cried and asked to stay home every morning. Luckily my daughter is accepted by Shenker because they just opened another PreK class. I am very happy about sending my daughter to Shenker. I only speak my native language at home so my daughter knew only a few words in English, and her English improved a LOT just in a few months (she only learned "no more" from Merryhill for 2 months btw). She loves going to school now and has fun every day. All teachers and staff are welcoming and ready to listen and help. Photos are uploaded on a daily basis and weekly school news contain valuable information for parents. All teachers are great, but Ms. Kijai and Ms. Darielle are the best!! read more

We had 2 kids who went to Shenkar from 18 months thru the 4 year old program- we loved it and wish we could stay there forever. Dr. Knafo is amazing- very hands on and in touch with whats going on with the curriculum and classes. He has great advice for early childhood learning and keeps the school up to date and competitive. My kids loved thier teachers and thier friends. It was an amazing environment to grow up in and we cant that Dr. Knafo and all the teachers and support staff enough. Please extend into elementary school and we will be back!!! Thank you Shenkar Academy!!! read more

This is great daycare and kinder- they will grow one day, my child loved going to kindergarten here. Mrs. Davis and Ms. Jobel were my daughters teachers. And they will be in my daughters heart forever as will all the wonderful friends she made going to school here!! The admins are so kind and friendly- and having subbed here as well I got to work the the staff and teachers and the job is all heart and creativity- wonderful people who love their job, amd kids. It was a honor getting to work in all the class rooms, helping many different age groups and amazing teachers!! So glad I had the opportunity- it has taught me much!! Keep up the good work for years to come!!! Blessings!! read more

I feel so incredibly blessed we found this school. My son went to their 3 year old program last year, my daughter is currently in their 3 year old program for this school year, and was in the 2 year old program last year, and my youngest starts at Shenker for this summer on the 2 year old program. They are also signed up for the Chinese class twice per week and love learning new Chinese words and songs every week. Kids learn at age-appropriate levels at Shenker and love going to school. I've seen consistency with their teachers. Low turnover was important for us and we found that at Shenker. My husband and I have also made friends with the other parents. The entire Shenker community is THE BEST. Only word of advice is to get on the waitlist early! They let us put our son on the Kindergarten waitlist early (in December for August start) since we're already a Shenker family we get priority. However, he is still waitlisted. Crossing our fingers he gets in, but DO NOT WAIT to get your spot on their waitlist. -Ferrin read more

Shenker was our second preschool that we tried and we are so happy that we made the change! While the school is attached to the Temple Sinai, all religions and backgrounds are welcomed. My wife and I are catholic and our son is half Korean, and it is great to be able to have him in a environment that is so diverse and celebrates all cultures. Our son started when he was 4 months old and has been attending for 10 months now. Everyone there is so nice and really does care about your child and getting to know your whole family. The teachers there approach each child as a unique individual and are flexible to ensure the best quality care. While there is structure like daily language sessions (alternating between 4 languages), weekly art projects, and water play in the summers, they work around your requests for feeding, sleep schedules, etc. The most amazing part is the communication. They utilize an app and post realtime updates on diaper changes, how your child ate/drank their milk, sleep, and allow you to respond via text or call to discuss. They also use photo circle to post daily pics of the children in your child's class. We get 3+ pictures daily and the ladies do such a great job of capturing moments that you never feel like you are missing out. During the pandemic they made special provisions to accommodate my family as we were essential workers. They adopted many health and safety practices in advance of state mandates and the principle works closely with the local government and CCSD to ensure they provide the best solutions for the safety of your child. The number of children per classroom was limited, they hired two full time staff to constantly be sanitizing and cleaning (in addition to night time and weekend deep cleans by an external service), they adopted masks for their staff before it was mandated, and even purchased special equipment to sanitize playground equipment multiple times daily. While the school incurred all this additional cost, they never changed their rates and even offered specials for families impacted. read more

My child is much further ahead in all areas having attended Shenker Academy before going to CCSD Public School. We are very grateful to the Principle Dr. Sharon Knafo for keeping the school open whenever possible during COVID-19, in 2020, and also to Mrs. Paola Borders for being such a brilliant teacher to our daughter. read more

I can't say enough great things about this school . The teachers and staff are top notch and the care they show to our child makes us feel so comfortable to leave him in their care . The difference in our child's growth has been immeasurable from when he started this year . We are beyond grateful for opportunity they have given our son to start his education. It's more than just a school/ daycare though, It's a place we as parents feel give our child the foundations he needs to succeed as he begins his life's journey . We are so happy to have found such a wonderful place ! read more

I am in no way shape or form surprised this school has received 5 star reviews. The security of the school is top notch. The education program my daughter has been on is unbelievable. From the women who run the front desk, to the teachers, all the way up to the director have been nothing but excellent to my daughter and family. If you have a child in this age range, and are looking for a school to fit your child's needs, this is the place. In just over a year the change I see in my daughter is unreal. Sign language, spelling, art, science, numbers, alphabet, extracurricular activities. It's really unmatched in my eyes after visiting quite a few schools in the surrounding area. 100% a place to consider for your child read more

We love Shenker Academy so much! Our twin boys have been in the infant butterflies room for over a year now. The lead teacher Ms Deb is amazing and all of the assistant teachers are as well. They love our boys so much and I never worry when we drop them off. They are taken care of so well. Our boys love the teachers so much - sometimes they don't even want to come home with me! We are so glad we picked this school and are confident the other classes are going to be just as wonderful as our boys continue to grow. I am so thankful for the teachers on the Butterflies Room for making it easier for me to go to work. read more

Great preschool our girl and boy going there and They learn and develop allot and having fun with the great teachers and stuf. Dr sharon is so helpful and involved thank you all. read more

I sent my boys to this preschool the last 2 1/2 years and I am so happy and impressed with this place! This preschool is the perfect balance between fun and academic. The teachers are all so nice and well-trained to prepare your kids for kindergarten. The school campus and classrooms are clean and well-kept. I can't say enough good things about this preschool. I highly recommend sending your kids here! read more

Usually reviews are very subjective and reflects a lot of emotions which are not facts so it's not fair for the business. I'll try to make mine as straightforward as possible by stating only facts. - At the first day it was promised each kid has his own bad. NOT TRUE! My kid shared his bad with one more kid. - My kid slept in a 'rocker' for about 5 weeks before he got a crib. (We are not using that rocker at home for over 4 month as he grew out of it since then). - They are saying they have an "open door" policy so you can drop in when ever you want - 5 minuets after I stop by to do a 'surprise visit', I received a call from the management sayin: "The teacher felt threatened and I made the rest of babies stressed..." By the way, their answer to why my kid didn't got a crib was: "when you signed up we gave you a booklet and in it, there is a section saying to bring sheets", so I asked for 5 weeks you didn't thought to tell me that again?!?! That was your best BS of excuse?! Instead of saying "we are sorry, we don't have enough beds and this is the case, you are trying to cover it up by blaming the parents?!?! OK so the last part is a bit more subjective but I had to... I would have loved it if 'Shenker Academy' will address this review with some relevant answers and not just cliches like: "...Much dedication..." or "...dedicated staff". read more

My son started the Summer Camp, and after 7 days at school he is making great progress. We work with him a great deal on colors, shapes, letters, numbers, and music. However, he needed to build confidence self feeding, walking, socially, and develop better ways to communicate frustration. His vocabulary is already improving greatly as is his confidence. He is just shy of 13 months and began walking confidently last night, he reads a couple words, knows many letter and numbers, and is using his hands to better communicate he needs and wants. We are also seeing an improvement in solo creative/free play. If they can get him to stop eating his palm grip crayons and put them to paper I will think they are miracle workers! read more

I have 2 kids who both attend Shenker Academy and they both LOVE it!!! My daughter had gone to previous schools prior to attending Shenker and we just weren't satisfy with the care that she was receiving. That all changed when she started Shenker.

I would recommend Shenker to any parent looking for a wonderful Preschool for their child. read more
