Is this school suitable for children with ADHD?

When I 1st came here there were over 20 kids waiting to get picked up by their parents for after…read moreschool care. As the weeks went on there was less and less. Even prior to COVID19 there were less than a dozen kids coming here. At a friends birthday party I ran into a child that had recognized my kid. She told me she was also going but told her parents she didn't like it there after a week, so the parents stopped. Seeing what the staff does and doesn't do I understand. My niece who had gone here for preschool said the pretty much the same thing now that she is in high school. It's pretty much like paying a teenager to watch over your kids, just having them watch TV, play and eat Goldfish crackers. The kids while waiting for their parents are walked down to the Wah Mei and allowed to play in the courtyard for an hour before going in and allowed to run around. When the weather is cold or raining they are allowed to run around the next door church instead. When there is a disruptive child in the group the staff does nothing about it. Most of the time the kids just all give and all run around and play instead of focusing on study and homework, what the staff should be doing. 6 months ago they invested in a TV so the staff could just plug in their phones and watch Youtube videos instead of running around.

Last Friday was our last day of preschool at the amazing Wah Mei Preschool. After two wonderful…read moreyears, I shed quite a few tears; it was bittersweet. With incredibly dedicated staff, a well-rounded, play-based curriculum that's an accredited California "First Five" school and choice of either full or half day programs, your child will be totally prepared for kindergarten and perhaps bi or tri-lingual in Mandarin and Cantonese. Children go on weekly field trips to the library and occasional field trips to the California Academy of Sciences, The Botanical garden in Golden Gate Park and Zeum at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts. Apply early (I recommend when your child is two years old) to increase your chances your child will get a spot at this top-notch San Francisco preschool. Especially with California having moved back the kindergarten deadline for children whose birthdays fall on or before September 1st, it seems there are fewer spots at all the city's preschools. And, tuition at non-profit Wah Mei Preschool is a fraction of what you'll pay at other preschools in the city. The school opens as early as 7:30 and closes as late as 6pm. Breakfast (until 8:30am), a hot and nutritious lunch and snacks are inclusive. Don't miss the opportunity to send your child to Wah Mei Preschool.

This review has been a long time coming! My son graduated from Creative Montessori back in July…read more2016, and I still look back with so much appreciation for everything he learned there. My husband actually found the school through a friend, and I remember thinking, how could a 2 1/2-year-old possibly be independent or follow structure? But to my surprise, my son adapted so quickly -- it was amazing to see! In less than a month, he was fully potty trained, eating on his own with real utensils and dishes, putting things away, and following routines with confidence. The teachers were so loving, patient, and kind, and truly knew how to bring out the best in each child. The foundation he got at Creative Montessori carried through the years. He went on to do incredibly well in elementary and middle school, graduating at the top of his class with five awards, and now he's a freshman in high school taking four honors classes. I truly believe that his Montessori start gave him confidence, independence, and a lifelong love for learning. Another thing that stood out was how much care they put into the meals -- freshly cooked hot lunches with healthy servings of fruit every day. It felt like such a nurturing environment, not just academically but emotionally too. We also made lifelong friendships with other families during our time there, and it still warms my heart to think about those early years. If you're looking for a preschool that truly builds a strong foundation for both learning and character, I can't recommend Creative Montessori enough. The loving teachers, thoughtful structure, and caring environment gave my son such a beautiful start and for that, I'll always be grateful.

My boyfriend's daughter attended FSK, I know many of the teachers there, and I have observed in…read moreclassrooms there. I also have known the assistant principal for years and used to work with her. I would send my child there in a heartbeat. The assistant principal is upfront, honest and student centered. People were in tears when she left my school to go to FSK. Today, she stopped in to visit, and my room filled with the sounds of cheering students from the yard outside. They rushed over like she was a rock star! I don't think I've ever seen them that excited, and these were 4th and 5th graders! FSK has a long history of incusivity. I believe it was one of the first schools to really start seriously including kids from the special day classes in the general education classes. Last year, when the current assistant principal was at my school, she made changes to the busing so that the students in the special day classes would be able to attend the morning assemblies with the rest of the school. She is dearly missed, and I am sure she has brought this spirit of inclusivity to FSK. I would highly recommend that you visit the school and meet the administrators. They are both wonderful people.

I came here for summer school when I was really little, but my teacher wasn't even a teacher who…read moretaught regularly at FSK. So no review for that. REVIEW IS FOR THE PLAY STRUCTURE THAT I GO TO ON THE WEEKENDS WHEN THERE ARE NO SMALL CHILDREN! Oh man. I love the little play structure. It's a bit small...obviously. :P Hehe. I don't know, I'm still a little kid!! I can't ever resist a playground or play structure. I'm glad that there's this one so close to home. It's not dirty or grimey like the ones at places with a sandbox. I really don't like those because I get sand in my shoes.. then I have to empty out my shoes..then theres always those few pieces of sand that don't leave and I take them home with me and when I'm walking around barefoot, I get pieces of sand stuck on my feet. THIS PLACE HAS NO SAND. YAY! :)
