Very disappointing experience overall. We signed up early for the next school year, but literally…read morewithin a few days we found out because of a work situation that we would be moving to Canada. We reached out right away, explained everything and asked if they could make an exception. They absolutely could have if they wanted to, but instead chose to charge us close to $2,000 and kept pointing us back to the contract and legal language. I even appealed directly to both the outgoing and incoming heads of the school, hoping there would be some understanding given the circumstances and how quickly we notified them. Unfortunately, there was none. The saving grace for us was my son's teachers, Mr. Rao and Mrs. Joshi. They were wonderful and we genuinely appreciated them. Beyond that, I was never particularly impressed with the administration or the overall experience. For a school that positions itself as a premier institution and has so many positive accolades, our experience was very different. To us, it felt like a pretty average/subpar school packaged and marketed as something much more. If you are considering AIA, just make sure you read every line of what you sign. Don't assume there will be any flexibility or understanding even when circumstances change within a matter of days.

For the parents reading this, I went out thinking I would forget or never see anyone BUT some kids went to the same Middle/High School as me! It was awesome to catch up with them after not seeing them for years!! Anyways, I loved this place and would 100% recommend this place to anyone.

Ms. Kirandeep taught both our youngest daughter and our son, and she did an incredible job preparing them for the next steps into Pre-K. They had such a positive and enriching experience in her classroom. Primrose has been the perfect stepping stone into school for our children. The teachers and staff have been nothing short of amazing, and they will be greatly missed by our family. We are so grateful for the love, care, and support they have shown our children over the years. I highly recommend this school to anyone looking for a nurturing, supportive, and exceptional place for their entire family.

We are pleasantly greeted every morning by Ms. Sheema, Ms. Rissa, Mrs. Gayon and the owner which makes my son so eager to come to school. Special mentions for the schools chef Ms. Jojo she prepares healthy fresh food daily that smells delicious everyday. It can be a task to feed the little ones and she does so with grace. Lastly my son loves his past and present teachers shy, Savanah , sidley, Norma, Cyrstal and Kendra ! I highly recommend this school not only for the academics but the hospitality!

The teachers have been…read morewonderful--caring, patient, and truly dedicated to helping each child grow--and the staff is always so organized, kind, and attentive. Their curriculum is engaging and thoughtfully designed, and I have full confidence that it will prepare both of our kids for elementary school and beyond.

We would highly recommend Ivy Kids to any family looking for a warm, nurturing home away from home!

The PreK Teacher is also very warm and friendly although my son was too young for that program and is now in a science program for gifted children. Thanks to Goddard for contributing to our son Rainier's development.

I struggled dropping my baby off for the first time, but we have both grown to love daycare so much. Now when I pick him up, he doesn't even want to leave. New ownership in 2023 has made so many great changes. There is better communication, cosmetic touch ups to the school, and I believe there is more teacher training. We can't recommend Goddard Holcomb bridge enough.

CTM is the BEST! When we enrolled our kids, we had toured and interviewed over 10 schools and…read moreranked them on a spreadsheet. CTM came on top and we were not disappointed. We enrolled both our kids from toddler age all the way until they finished kindergarten. The teachers are so great at educating kids at their level and to their interests. By the time my kids went to elementary, they were already far ahead of other kids in reading and math. And in the final year, they spend time really preparing kids for "normal" instruction so that the kids aren't confused by the worksheets of non-Montessori school. I also love their balanced curriculum that includes family life. My son learned how to arrange flowers and polish brass! To this day, he loves arranging flowers when we get a bouquet from the store. The other aspect I love is that in the higher Primary years, they encourage the older kids to help as teacher helpers for the younger kids. Such a fantastic way to teach responsibility! I can't say enough good things about CTM! It is really the best.

Every time when i call i had to give all of my information and they do not save the details of the child, finally they agreed to give an appointment to talk about the registration process. When i went alone to the school to discuss further and register my child, the management was so rude and racists , she asked to bring the child to assess her and then only we can register in the school and asked me to leave the premises. As a mother of 2 kids, i have never seen such discrimination in any preschool/ daycare center to assess the child first and then register for the spot in the school.

We (along with many other families) left Oak Grove Academy in Feb 2023 for better care and…read moreeducation elsewhere. Despite talking a lot about the curriculum, Oak Grove really just provides babysitting services. They will show you the binders of curriculum and that it's posted outside the classroom door. But curriculum is only as good as how well its implemented. There was little education or development during our time there. The staff at Oak Grove is babysitting, not educating. The large classrooms look fantastic, until you realize how many kids they have in a classroom. They will tell you that they meet state requirements for teacher/student ratios, but just because you CAN have so many kids in a classroom doesn't mean that you SHOULD. Classrooms are chaotic and teachers are overwhelmed. There were a number of other issues during our time with Oak Grove, but the overall issue is that you can get better for your money. Oak Grove may seem cheaper at first, but other daycares include extracurriculars in the tuition that Oak Grove charges extra for. By the time you include the cost of extracurriculars, Oak Grove is not cheaper. Also, Oak Grove had parents provide food and supplies for holiday parties, but at our new school all holiday parties, egg hunts, etc are funded by the school. So much more convenient for the parents! We regret the time we wasted at Oak Grove and are so much happier with our new school. ------------------------- Note about the response from the school: Again, they quotes ratios. Be sure to ask how many kids total are in the class and how many of the adults in the class are true teachers versus helpers/assistants. I know that at one point there were almost 30 kids in my child's class. That is simply too many toddlers in a room. That said, considering the number of families who unenrolled their kids this year, the ratios probably have improved... but not for the right reasons. Also said in the initial review, the leadership talks a lot about the curriculum... but the curriculum is only as good as how well it's implemented. Lastly, why on earth would the owner want to contact me months after we have left other than to attempt to improve my review? If they were truly concerned, they would have worked on improving the situation before we and other families chose to leave.

We recently withdrew our 3-year-old from The Goddard School in Crabapple after a very concerning…read moreexperience with communication. On March 16, we received an email stating that our son had been experiencing significant behavioral challenges "over the past several months," including safety and hygiene concerns, and that we should seek an alternative placement. This was the first time we had ever been informed of concerns of this magnitude. If a school truly believes a child is struggling behaviorally or may need additional support, parents should be informed early and consistently, not for the first time in a single email recommending removal. After requesting documentation multiple times, the school was only able to provide one minor incident report (throwing a toy) and routine app logs, with no formal records reflecting the ongoing pattern of serious concerns that had been described. We fully understand that not every classroom is the right fit for every child. However, if there were genuine concerns regarding our child's behavior or development, those should have been clearly communicated and documented well before recommending that he leave the program. The lack of communication, documentation, and partnership with parents in this situation was extremely disappointing. We have since moved our son to another daycare where communication has been much more proactive and collaborative.
