Sending both of our daughters here -- from 6 months old through 3.5 years -- was honestly one of…read morethe best decisions we've ever made as parents. The teachers and staff didn't just watch our girls. They knew them, loved them, and treated them like their own. You can't fake that kind of care, and when you're dropping your babies off every morning, it means everything. What really stood out to us was that the teachers and staff were always open to talk. Every day we could find out how our girls' days went, what they were up to, even how they behaved -- nothing was ever off limits. A lot of places feel like a black box once you drop your kids off, but never here. We always felt like we were truly part of our daughters' day even when we couldn't be there. We never once had to worry, because we knew our girls were loved, cared for, and that we were kept in the loop every step of the way. This place truly became family to us. Thank you Rebecca and team!

It is obvious he feels comfortable and is happy each day when dropped off and picked up. Both the owner, Sandeep, and director, Amee, are extremely personable. They keep an open communication line between the parents, teachers, and themselves; making it easy to feel confident and comfortable with leaving our little boy in their care. Our little one is crawling and beginning to want to walk, so he will be moving to the First Steps room in the next few weeks. We expect to feel just as confident in his new teacher and for him to continue learning and developing as he has. We would definitely suggest The Goddard School to anyone!

We wanted a place that would be safe, educational, and close to home. We found what we were looking for and more with Goddard School of Rochester Hills! Our daughter is being cared for by people that truly care about her and want to see her succeed in life. We love to hear daily about the things that she is experiencing and learning. The Owner, Director, all the teachers and staff are exceptionally nice and very passionate about their profession and they interact with every single child individually and make them feel special and warm without anyone being left out. Overall, this is a great place and I would highly recommend it to any family. -Sushant & Sudnya

Bishop Foley Catholic High School has the best of both worlds where it's class size enables…read moreexcellent student and staff to student ratio for a much needed safe and high quality academic environment but offers educational (AP, Honors classes) and athletic programs that rival the best larger sized schools. My son's student class is close knit where each student knows everyone and supports everyone. About 75% are involved in athletics and/or other extracurricular activities. They are true to the Catholic Faith and support many religious based activities such as the March in DC and World Youth Day with the Pope. My son loves his experience as he begins his Junior year. I'm confident that both the staff and coaches will prepare him well for the top universities that he is planning for application and to serve the less fortunate in his community.

Because the classes at Oak Arbor are so small, it gives the students wonderful opportunities, and gives them a chance to form very close relationships with each other and with the teachers. The individual attention that each student gets from the teachers provides an excellent education for each student and their particular learning needs. My personal experience at Oak Arbor was the best childhood I could have asked for. Oak Arbor provided me with the best friends that I still have now, and with the foundation of my beliefs.

Discriminates against children who had prior illnesses, Unprepared, Unwilling, Very Transactional,…read moreMischievous, and the facility Smells of urine. If negatives ratings were available, I'd give them -10. 1. Discriminates: My daughter was kicked out of the program because she experienced two prior febrile seizures, both related to viral infections. a. Federal laws that prohibit schools from discriminating from children with disabilities, even though our child does not have a disability. b. Page 3 of their Parent Handbook 2022-2023, under the "Allergies / Medication Packet" section speaks about seizures and it goes on to advise that "together we will create an action plan"), c. My husband and I met with Ms. Nancy for the initial interview and walkthrough. She did not ask any questions regarding medical history. When we asked, she said paperwork would be sent before school started for us to complete. Also, I met with Ms. Suzanne and Ms. Christina before school started and told them our entire experience and we discussed a care plan, where Ms. Suzanne appeared overwilling to administer a care plan, but Ms. Christina seemed not fully on board. In the end, Ms. Nancy tried to infer that we hid our daughter's medical history from her, as if we would put our daughter's life at risk, to attend this transactional school. 2. Unorganized & Unprepared: Before school started, I called for the paperwork, they were unorganized and said that the packages would be mailed. They were never mailed. I met with Ms. Suzanne and my daughter's teacher Ms. Christina. Ms. Suzanne was assuring that they could assist in the situation of a febrile seizure lasting longer than the standard time. Ms. Suzanne said they had another child in the school with similar medication on file. Ms. Christina said she had never responded to one before but agreed, which seemed only due to Ms. Suzanne's assurance. Because of Ms. Christina's reaction I later followed up with her and also other teachers and Teacher Assistants in the school who would be with our daughter before and after school. None were experienced and seemed uncomfortable with the conversation. 3. Unwilling: After submitted information and help video Ms. Christina and Ms. Nancy determined that they were unwilling to administer care. Febrile Seizures can happen with a high fever during an illness, affecting 2-5% of children in the U.S. between 6 months and 5 years of age. 4. Transactional: I tried to negotiate with Ms. Nancy and also Ms. Christina regarding the care plan, as a new parent I wasn't sure if my requests were extreme or not. Ms. Christina decided that she would not provide the care plan.. Ms. Nancy was unwilling to compromise in any way and only said no to any and all requests that I asked without even hearing them out. I also asked if my daughter could return after a year of being cleared and having no experiences with illnesses and she also said no. Furthermore, once they said that we could no longer participate in the program, it was like we became public enemy #1, even though my husband and I remained calm, patient and professional throughout the entire experience. The staff was very rude and short. 5. Mischievous: Ms. Nancy provided me to a Tuition Rate sheet that quoted us our weekly rate, after disputing the prepaid charges which they refused to return I realized that: a. They were charging us a different weekly rate than Ms. Nancy told us. b. In going through the refund process, they also tried to charge us for more days than we attended. They tried to charge us for more days than we attending. Saying that attendance showed that my daughter had attended before their actual school start date, that's written on their own website. c. We purchased close to $300 in school supplies, when we were removed after 6 days of school, they return only a portion of our supplies and most of the items were generic when we purchased branded products. d. Getting a refund required several hours of our time and money. e. They declined my request for my refund more than once 6. Smells of Urine: When you walk into the facility on a regular basis, it smells of urine. And on more than one occasion there was no hand soap in the bathrooms for the children.

I can not say enough about this program. We found it last year while looking for a part-time…read moreprogram to help our 3 year old with social skills and prepare for kindergarten. It is a pay for program and only open to Oakland County residents, but well worth it. They have a 3 and 4 year-old program that are half days. There is no before or after care available but I am a stay at home mom so that was not a problem for me. The teacher, Mrs. Walker, is OUTSTANDING!! Yes you can say I like the teacher. She has so much patience and understanding with these little guys and us parents. My kids like her so much and that is half the battle with kids. Often we saw children whom she had taught before return to say hello and thank you. You just don't see that these days. In the 2 years we have been with the program my kids have blossomed and learned so much. I am confident that my 5 year-old is now ready for kindergarten. She has been reading and writing since last year and learned many new math and science skills this year. My 3 year-olds speech has improved so much I no longer am considering speech therapy for him. He is a typical boy and was not interested in reading and writing at his age. Not any more! He learned what to do and how to do it without even knowing that was what he was doing. Now he writes on everything (including the walls) and is trying hard to read what his big sister reads. If your looking for a program for you 3 or 4 year-old this is the place for them. The fee is competitive with other programs like it but the teacher makes all the difference!!!

What can I say, we love Utica Community Schools and their teachers!! We currently have our 5 kids…read moreenrolled in 3 different schools within the Utica district, Beck elementary on Hayes, Shelby Junior High on Van Dyke, and Duncan elementary on 26 Mile Road. I can honestly say that moving into this school district was the best choice we made for our children. I feel confident that they are, and will continue to receive the best education possible. As an active parent who participates and volunteers within all 3 schools, I get to see first hand what goes on within the schools. The teachers are some of the most engaged and active I've ever seen. You can tell they truly care about the well being and education of all their students. As a parent, who's experience reaches across 3 different schools, I highly recommend the Utica Community school district.
