The place is dirty, the teachers clearly do not like children and the director gaslights the parents. We saw things with our own eyes upon arrival and that was enough to remove our child from this place. We notified the director about the teacher's behavior and the director neglected to do anything or even acknowledge that the behavior was unacceptable to a preschool teacher. My child still has nightmares about that one day.

The teachers are all wonderful, top notch, creative and they pour their heart & soul into doing the best for the kids. I can't say enough good things about Miss Alice in the 3/4s class, as she really goes above and beyond to prepare them for school & life. They are kind & firm about the safety and security of their children and I have always felt that my children were in good hands. The healthy food they serve is prepared on site and my children have requested items from their menu to be prepared at home--which may say something about my cooking, haha, but nonetheless, what more could a parent ask for? Well worth every dollar and every moment I've invested in this place. Highly recommend.

The teachers are very helpful and keep in contact. I've never had an easier time communicating with my son's teachers. The school really emphasizes responsibility and accountability. The after school care is also very nice. They have many different clubs that your child can sign up for ranging from computer club to cooking club. Another little bonus is the school is always clean and well landscaped. If you are looking for an elementary school you would like to be near this is the one!

During my time at this school, I experienced severe and ongoing physical and verbal bullying. When…read moreit was reported, the response from staff was minimal and did not lead to meaningful change. The school was publicly recognized as a "bully-free school," but my lived experience did not reflect that label. My parents were at the school at least once a week attempting to address and resolve these issues, but despite repeated reports, the bullying never meaningfully improved. I often felt that maintaining the school's reputation mattered more than addressing what was happening to me as a student. This experience had a lasting impact on my mental health and ultimately led to my removal from the school on the advice of medical professionals. I'm sharing this so parents and students understand that official labels don't always reflect individual experiences, and I do not want anyone to go through the same experience I did.
