It was completely free. A very needed service for preschoolers with disabilities!!! Lows: you're not allowed to observe. There was no documentation on the kids days. His IEP was never formally gone through with me. Less then 24 hrs notice for things like, bring a pink treat day or send in donations for making gingerbread houses. His speech therapist mishandled his IEP several times. On the day we withdrew him I brought in thank you cards for the teachers and was told his speech therapist no longer works there. No one thought to tell me. Crazy mismanaged school. But good heart. If you have a preschool kiddo getting an IEP know that you also have an option to get funding straight from the state via ESA's. You can use that on therapies for them. I hate hate hate redirecting funds from public school but I have to do what's best for my 4 year old who wasn't getting the care he was entitled to.

ALL of the staff take the time to learn all of the kids that attend the school. The school has sooo many different fun days like pink day Green Day blue day it's just amazing how much they put toward education; and making it fun! My kid always comes home happy and saying he had fun! If your child is having a not so well day they still take the time to give your child that extra time to feel better or behave. The school is very secure and safe you need a passcode to enter the front gates during school hours! During the morning and dismissals there are numerous staff members standing outside so all eyes are on your children. There's been times where I was standing outside the gate and my kid ran out the gate to hug me and as soon as he got to the gate exit they grabbed him so fast then realized I was standing there BUT I AM SO GRATEFUL to know that they are watching the kids every move and they are so quick! YOU ACTUALLY SEE WHAT YOU ARE PAYING FOR MONTHLY! We went to numerous schools visiting but when we got here I KNEW THIS WAS IT!! I'm soo sad they only do pre school because I would love my kid to go here forever :)!

The United School is a wonderful small school dedicated to the needs of children on the spectrum…read more After our grandson spent a year in the Scottsdale School District's developmentally delayed pre-school program, we (parents and grandparents) knew that there had to be a better school experience/fit for our little guy. We found The United School (needed grade 1 and higher) while our grandson attended Kindergarten at another small, yet excellent, inclusive pre-school/Kindergarten in North Scottsdale. The facilities at USFA are outstanding, the teachers and staff are professional, knowledgeable, and caring, and there are a variety of elective classes during the regular school day, in addition to after-school clubs that are varied and interesting. Speech and occupational services are available for an additional fee, but the therapists hold sessions at school and accept ESA funds. The school holds parent-teacher conferences on a regular basis, and students are tested regularly in specific subjects in order to ascertain concrete achievement, which facilitates the movement to a higher level of study. In addition, the school has full-time BCBA's on campus, who help facilitate the achievement testing. One of the highlights of each quarter is The Student Showcase, which highlights the wonderful work that students produce throughout each quarter. Our grandson has attended USFA for three years; he loves going to school. And we love seeing his smiling face at the end of each school day.

If you have child that is high functioning child that can get overwhelmed easily from having high…read moredemands and needs structure and patience to flourish, stay away from this place. The teachers are overwhelmed and don't have enough support to handle high demand ASD kids especially ones that require outside the box thinking specialist and ones that require unique curriculum to help them grow. The school forced my daughter to do lower grade academics and then tried to say that I wasn't happy with her academic achievement! She received 100% in her Language Arts 3rd grade 4th quarter and they still insisted that she wasn't ready for 4th grade due to behaviors. Since the start of the school year, my daughter struggled with the high demand that was being placed on her to fit into their programs and she was purposely placed in lower academic curriculum due to her behavior and I tried to constantly advocate that the behaviors were due to boredom but no one would listen to me. I was told that until my daughter started following directions and behaviors improve, her academic would stay the same. I just recently had my daughter's IQ tested and it came back top 5%. She tested into 5th grade reading and 7th grade spelling; her math was behind because the school refused to teach her grade level math telling me initially that she was behind and then they said oh we are too ahead in the curriculum and we can't have her join the 3rd grade class then they wanted me to get her caught up during the summer if she wanted to be in 4th grade. The owner (Victoria) just doesn't really care about your children. Your child is just $$$$ to her. She just wants the money and wouldn't care if your child succeeded or not. They have also had such a huge turn over with their staff and I am not surprised at all. The only reason I tried this place was cause of the so called "great reviews". I usually don't like to place reviews, but I just had to share since so many people recommend this school! I would be very careful with placing my child here.

Its my son's second year in this school. To say I'm impress does no justice with how I feel towards…read morethe school, the staff, the community and more then anything the teachers. I've had nothing but great experiences and truly feel the support from my son teachers but also the principle. When my son was in kindergarten he had to have ankle surgeries, I wasn't scared, I was terrified; millions of questions in my head, will my son fall behind? will he be bullied? can he keep up? Ms.Waldron my son's kindergarten teacher took the time to find out everything about the surgeries, offer to visit my son while he was off to teach him what he will miss and when it was time to return to school We found out she had search everywhere till she could borrow a wheelchair and a little wagon to push my son in the classroom and the students will take turns taking him places and always making him feel equal; even till this day I get tears of joy. My son finished kindergarten advance in math and a fluent reader. My oldest son did not start reading till he almost finish first grade and I never had any connections with his teachers but only the mandatory basics. The teacher wasn't just an amazing human and kind woman but she is an outstanding well qualified teacher whom I can't wait for my youngest to be her student as well. It's horrible that some individuals can express so poorly about something they know nothing about.... Ignorance at its fullest.
