It seems many people like this place, but I had a very bad experience. This could be only me, so if…read moreyou would like to send your kids to here, please do not read my review. I enrolled my kid to this center because I trusted the fact that this center expanded the business in this area quite successfully. However, when I toured the center, I was not very happy when I looked at the faces of kids and staff. They didn't look very happy nor enjoy their job. Furthermore, I realized that this place is too pricey compared to the other daycares in the neighborhood. So in the end, I decided to withdraw my kid's enrollment. I visited the center and explained why I made such a decision. At that time the staff promised me that I would get a check for the first month's tuition, because, at the time of enrollment, I have already paid $150 + first month's tuition ($1195). Again, the staff told me that I can get it back and the reason why she cannot give it right away is because she does not have the checkbook. The staff talked about bad things about the school to which I am switching, which sounded not nice, but I did not take it seriously. She also mentioned that there was a policy that I should have notified them 45 days in advance, strictly speaking. I notified them 30 before the first day of school. So I understood that and I greatly appreciated their kind considerations. BUT, I did not receive the check for a month, and I have sent an email to remind that. The response I got was simple enough, "No, you cannot get a check. The owner decided not to do that." WHAT?? They just ate up my $1195 because I was late for 15 days to notify them. I can totally understand if they take out part of that money, but I cannot understand that they took all of it. Even more importantly, in that response, the staff mentioned that the owner called me and explained the situation. NO!! It never happened. The owner did not give me a call and I did not know the situation before "I" asked them. I courteously replied back if there is any possibility for a partial refund and explained that I have never received a call from the owner. That was it! They never responded back to me. I cannot trust their business. It seems to me that they only take care of their profits and tries to get out of money as much as possible. They never considered me as a future family even though I could send my kids to their summer camps or after-school care. I pass the center every morning and afternoon and see a lot of cars in there. Every time, I get very annoyed by their attitude to me, and I will never consider this place as one of my future childcare.

I enjoy waking up in the morning knowing that I am going to be surrounded by all of the children who are active learners and my colleagues who have become part of my family; The Greentrees Family. Our school coordinates so many fun things throughout the school year as well as during the summer camp months! As much as possible we photograph the activities and share with all the parents. Our school website includes many of these photographs! In addition, we keep an updated school calendar that includes special events and daily activities that occur throughout the school year.

This place is one of the best schools that provides learning for children with special needs. They also provide related services including physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy.

This is one of the places I highly recommend if your child qualifies to be here.

My son has been in the daycare program of this school since he was 3 months old. He is currently 2…read moreyears old and I am beyond pleased with his progress over the years. From 3 months to 15 months he was in the infant room with excellent care givers who took care of him as if he was their own. They did artwork with him, which always adorn my fridge. The room was clean and bright and fun! He had his own crib. I had to provide my own sheets and blanket but it was more than a cheesy bassinet, there were gorgeous wood cribs. He had his own cubby and contain/space in the fridge. When it was time for him to move to the toddler room they transitioned him to make him comfortable. But in his new "big boy" room he really blossomed. They to amazing things with these kids. He goes to gym, computer class, out door recreation, they have circle time, reading time, music class, and so much more. They have their own nap pads which are comfortable and a crib sheet fits them nicely. He again has his own space is in the fridge and a toddler size table where the kids eat their meals together. They work on colors, letters, numbers, vocabulary, and developing their fine motor skills, gross motor Skills, language levels, social development, and more. As a facility that also has the capability of providing Early Intervention they provide me with quarterly evaluations as part of their program. It's a great way to learn more about your child hitting milestones. They have their own sink and bathroom in the room and are more than glad to work with you to potty train, my son is eager to use the potty as a result of the expose he gets to older children at school and the staffs intuitiveness to sense he was ready and to work with him each day to learn to use the potty seat. They are working with my son to develop his skills to use utensils and a regular cup. He comes home every day smarter and happier than the last. I thank each amazing staff member for VCLC each day for their kindness to my child and I, and that each one of them is dedicated to the well being of my son. The pricing is reasonable, the location is a leased elementary school which means it's totally geared towards small children. I do have to provide my own food, which not only saves money, but I know that he is eating good for each day not typical easy toddler food (pizza, mac n cheese, chicken nuggets). Their security is phenomenal. You have to show your family pass before being buzzed into the building. The class sizes are small, and the rooms are colorful and fun and filled with educational toys and decor. He still comes home with fun projects each day and larger projects every so often. It's an excellent choice when you're considering daycare!!

This school is horrible, it feels like a prison and honestly makes me feel worse than i ever have…read moreknowing i have toi go. For context I've been attending for 2 years and have only ended up going there because my district school didnt want me because i tried to kms. They give excuses and special treatment to the mentally unintelligent and sped kids but then punish people who drop the f bomb or if we dont have a clear water bottle. They constantly allow and never punish behavior like bullying, online harassment, kids inappropriately touching other kids, kids watching pron on the chromebooks, kids sneaking in drugs and nic (several times), and aggression. I have brought this to attention and these same people get no consequences or a slap on the wrist. The teachers try they're best but it is not academically challenging in the slightest, as long as you show up you can pass. School constantly babies the students, even when theyre near adults. Kids at the school are constantly sleeping or getting triggered by the word 'god', christanity or coloring so good luck trying to talk about normal things. Takes forever to talk to YOUR OWN parents since they dont allow phones and to make calls you need to go through your therapist, whos always busy because they have 30 clients who need to see said therapist every day of the week because the therapists never say no, so if something happened at the school, they'll find out in a week. do not care about privacy. do not care about bullying unless its against the sped kids. do not care about you, because any talk of anything that isnt gay or watered down for the snowflakes gets you sent to your therapist, so good lucky talking about anything (they will take you out of context) If your daughter just struggles with attendance or anxiety dont send them here. school does not care if your planning to take your life, they're just send you to a hospital. "School" feels more like a hospital than a school. Dont send them here.

A positive review for Harmony Heights…read more For those who need a school setting with smaller classes, resources, more structure and a nurturing environment during a challenging time in your teen years, Harmony Heights will change your life for the better. My graduating class had many amazing success stories so I don't understand or relate to some of the reviews on this forum. In my graduating class, some are college graduates who went to great schools. Some are professionals in the working world with some making over 6 figures. Some are married, found love, and started their own families. Many have healthy relationships with people closest to them. Others have blossomed into beautiful people that do not need the medicines and services they needed back in high school. If you're considering Harmony Heights, always remember that Harmony changes people's lives for the better, with a setting that isn't typical of any school you probably have ever been to. If you're able to embrace this, Harmony will be the best decision of your life.

SCSD has it's ups and downs just like any other school district. The arts program at SCSD is…read moreamazing. I've never seen a better funded, better developed music and fine art program anywhere. Now, on the other hand, I have had two brothers go through the Special Education program and have watched time and time again as the program failed my brothers. The school district misdiagnosed my little brother saying that he had ADD and so prescribed him adderall when, in reality he was dyslexic. Anyway, I think they need to develop their Special Ed programs. The school district is in need of good Special Ed teachers who bring the education to the students in a non-traditional way. I loved Robbins Lane, loved HBT and loved SHS. I thank God for the experiences I had at these schools. They made me the person I am today.

SCSD prepares you along every step of the way, and especially to be a success in, and out of the classroom. Their curriculum is challenging, yet allows even the average student to reach their potential. They also offer the most AP/advance placement classes that I know of. I myself took 12 AP courses throughout my high school career, and I can attest that their standards help you prepare for college. Their sports, among other activities allow for well-rounded students come graduation day. The fine arts program is also extremely well funded, and allows for students to pursue their interests. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure Syosset's teachers are paid higher, our taxes are higher, and our superintendent gets paid too much, but results come at a cost. I cannot speak about the Special Education programs as I have no personal experience with them, but for the average student going through Syosset, the results speak for themselves.
