Unless you're a mom with a child with extra needs you may not truly understand this review. My son…read morerequires extra attention with activities. He has some vision impairment which causes delays. I can't tell you how many places judged his abilities and made obvious excuses that they couldn't take him in. Centers with open enrollment suddenly had an oversight and had no open spots. It's mind blowing because he's such a great kid and the sweetest little boy but as I've sadly learned, ignorance blinds you. When I spoke to Christina, the director at KA, she welcomed Chase with open arms. She never once made me feel that Chase was any different or a problem. She never looked at his delays but instead spoke to me as any parent that needed to connect with a teacher on what was best for Chase and any safety needs. In the very beginning there was an adjustment period that Chase struggled with. I thought for sure the center was going to say, maybe this isn't the best fit". It was the complete opposite actually. Instead, Christina and I sat and talked about Chase as a person. We came up with what would help him to adjust and a plan. A plan that worked. It's been almost 8 months now. Chase is one of brightest kids in the class. He has several friends that make him happy and excited to go in each week. I hope all those people that turned their back on my son never have a child with needs and have someone make them feel the way that many centers have made me feel. The world is hard enough, we shouldn't make parents feel worse and thanks to Kiddie Academy and especially Christina, there's one part of my sons day that just feels "normal" or as we are so trained to say, "typical". Thank you KA for providing a safe environment for Chase where has learned Independence in a safe loving environment.

That was after the fact well the first of the month came and we were charged again $150 for a two year-old program. They clarified that my had contract with them never explaining the facts to them never heard of a school that had done this before I can see that we would charge for the first month. I understood that even though she did not she did do a trial class and then she was registered but being charged for the second month is bull. The owner was not helpful. The owner did not care now. My daughter is out a lot of money. Beware don't sign the contract unless you're up for this so if you sign the contract in the beginning of the month, you're still being charged the following month also 150.00 is a lot of money these days also they said that they had to hold that opening and they couldn't take any other kids when I fact they still have an add up saying they have openings.

Considering all the stuff going on today in the school systems , if you see it, and you don't agree with it, Then Our Savior New American School is it. Their main goal for every single student entering in their school is independence, respect, creating critical thinkers who believe in God. I am an older parent with two kids. One Biological son, and my adopted daughter ; from Haiti. watching the deterioration through the years in the educational system was enough for me to pull my kids out and look for some thing more for them. A place where strong , solid values are being upheld. Like I am teaching my kids at home. A place where the academics standards levels have not been lowered to a senseless level , like in the public schools. If your like me, and you want more for your children's education? Our Savior New American School is a good solid option.

He had a tough time transitioning and eventually we got him to go for a period of 3 months without tears. 6 mos later after winter break, he was horrified going. He screamed, cried and they would call me to speak to him because of how bad it was in hopes to calm him. They would remove him from the class and send him with the director who he had no idea of, in order for the teacher to just continue to teach. It obviously would get bad for any child to go with a stranger. They would then call me to pick him early. I tried to reach out to his teacher multiple times throughout the year in terms of communication and it was extremely poor. The only time I'd get good communication would be if they wanted me to pick him up early ( also stressful for a working parent). In the end, the new director spoke to us and we decided it best to withdraw him. I reached out to teacher to get in touch as to what the heck happened but she wouldn't respond until the director intervened. HORRIBLE SCHOOL and HORRIBLE COMMUNICATION. Do not send your kid here unless he or she knows how to fully speak and even then, they could care less about your child. I was told to ask his doctor about separation anxiety lol. I'm convinced something happened there because he went to a new school shortly after and was thriving. Unfortunately I won't ever know what since my son couldn't properly speak and the teacher was terrible in terms of communicating.
