I could not say enough about why I like this school. I originally looked at another school in the…read morearea and was torn between which one to send my daughters to. When I bumped into a coworker at Jenn's Junction and she told me that her daughter LOVED the place it was a no-brainer. I immediately registered my twins. Since Day 1, I have been happy with that decision. The work ethic is apparent of not only teachers but especially the staff. Ms Anita and Ms Jenn are super accommodating, loving, flexible, enthusiastic, etc etc etc. In addition, when my daughters had trouble acclimating in the beginning, they made it a point to walk them down to their classroom and were super hands-on. One day Ms Anita heard my daughter saying she had a bad day and she immediately walked down the hall to ask her why and comfort her. I could go on and on and on. The children's days are filled with writing and reading and puzzles and hands-on activities, as well as yummy snacks and lunches and nap time! All in all an A+ according to me! oh and I should also add that whenever I email Ms Jenn she is on it. She responds fast and is ready to answer any questions or give me feedback. Love love love! Nice to know my daughters are in good hands when I drop them off and head to teach myself!

A special thank you to Miss Krissia. From the very beginning, she's made such a positive impact on Bryson. She's so kind, patient, and caring, and you can tell she truly loves what she does. It means so much to me knowing my son feels safe, happy, and loved when he's with her. Ms Kimberly, and Ms Elizabeth have also been incredible with Camila . They treat my children with so much love and care, and that gives me so much peace of mind every day. As a parent, there's nothing more reassuring than dropping your kids off knowing they're with people who genuinely care about them. I'm so thankful for everything these teachers do, and I truly appreciate the love, patience, and dedication they show every single day. We Enrolled them back in April and have noticed such a positive impact in them and for that my family is so grateful for all of you.

Leaving my…read moreinfant to go back to work was one of the hardest things I have ever had to do- but once I met Ms. Arti I knew she would be in great hands. My child has been at TLE for 5 months and she has not once cried when I leave her, which is a true testament to the incredible care she receives while she is there. Ms. Arti and Ms. Ana are so attentive and loving, and I truly feel they care for my daughter as their own. I cannot imagine this journey without them. Also-I love the monthly curriculum for the infant room and their commitment to learning and independence. Additionally, the supportive staff are so welcoming and pleasant, it is a joy to see them at pick up/drop off. They know every child by name and I never feel rushed when I have a question or call to check on my daughter. TLE East Rutherford is truly a gift to me and my family. Thank you!!!

We know that our daughter is always supported and loved, and she has adored her teachers in each of the classrooms she has entered. The school has a good balance of learning and play, and as our child has moved into the toddler wing, there are more and more interactive activities for her to do. The leadership builds community within the families and really loves when they are involved, and they are also communicative about issues/changes to schedules, etc. We have had few problems, but when something comes up, the issue is handled right away. One of the things that we love is the diversity within the school and the celebration of so many different holidays. We get to share some of our traditions and traditions we get to learn about the other students', which is something that we had been looking for in a school. We are so so happy that our child is at Meadows, and we look forward to our continued relationship with her school!

As with any school, a child's experience is largely dependent on the teacher. My son started off in…read morethe toddler classroom with Ms. Peralta, who was an excellent teacher. My husband and I noticed how fast he developed and advanced academically. She was kind, loving, and always kept the kids busy with various activities over the course of the day. Ms. Peralta left suddenly a few months after we started, and things immediately took a turn for the worst. In fact, it seems like many of the experienced teachers had left this year, and the administration chose to promote the assistant teachers, who were highly inexperienced and lacked the proper training and qualifications. During the few months we stayed at the school after Ms. Peralta's departure, my son was moved from the toddler classroom to the preschool classroom. This was a complete disaster. His new teacher had a short temper. It was almost daily when my son would come home and tell me that his teacher was angry. I had heard from other parents in the class that they had noticed her temper as well and addressed it with director. She did not invest in the kids education, and was constantly having them sit on the floor as they passed the time. It had turned into more of a daycare than a school. My son even started forgetting the numbers and alphabet he learned in Ms. Peralta's class. His new teacher did not invest any time in the curriculum or his education. This isn't even the worst of it. A few weeks before our departure, I received a call from the school director reporting an incident that had taken place. Apparently the kids had returned from their daily play on the playground, and my two year old son was forgotten outside and left alone on the playground! Thankfully, another teacher saw him and reported the situation to the director. The director informed me that she had the intention of addressing it with the teacher and other staff. Regardless, I was absolutely livid to hear this. After this incident there continued to be no improvement in the quality of care or education, so we decided to pull him out permanently. I hope this review helps prospective parents make an informed decision on where to send their child. As I mentioned in the beginning, it is all dependent on the proper teachers. It seems like all the experienced teachers left during covid, and the administration made some poor choices with the teachers they hastily hired. I would also like to note that the school director and assistant director genuinely cared and wanted to work with our family on resolving these issues. However, it just got the the point where there were so many issues with the teacher that we could not stay at this school.

Next day comes and I see the same thing happening over and over again. The kids at this school are not safe. I have recorded videos of neglect and can share them with anyone who is considering or currently sending their kids there. The teachers will make sure that the kids "survive" and don't kill each other/themselves but you won't get anything more out of this place. The teachers are rude and unfriendly, whenever I tried to talk to them they would be very sassy and short. Don't be fooled by the affordable cost of the school. You get what you pay for.
