My daughter attended school there for 4 years when we were told that the school was closing. No advance warning or anything. Effective immediately. The school was closed down due to mold in the building. This tells me that no one from corporate had a system set up to maintain and inspect their buildings. Staff and a hundred students are now scrambling for child care and jobs. The teachers, curriculum and huge outdoor play area were amazing. We are so sad to have to leave this school.

I'm a teacher myself, and I can see how much thought and planning Ms. Flanagan puts into her teaching. She communicates constantly and I can tell that my daughter loves and feels safe with her. My daughter is four, and the other night we were sitting down at the kitchen table writing her list of favorite Christmas songs and saying words in Spanish. I feel so blessed that my daughter is able to learn here every day!

My son wakes up excited to go every single morning, which speaks volumes about how nurturing, engaging, and supportive the environment is. The teachers are truly involved and attentive, and the academic curriculum is exceptional--it truly prepares your child for the next level with confidence. I'm especially grateful for the individualized support and regular updates we receive about our child's progress. We couldn't be happier with our experience here!

I was a student here almost 12 years ago, and the fact that they have glowing reviews on other…read morewebsites shocks me. I had maybe 2 good teachers throughout my time there, and then once I hit 3rd grade it all went down hill. I was having a difficult time learning, and wasn't a great student. I was diagnosed with a learning disability (which was actually misdiagnosed) and started an IEP. I swear, once I got the IEP, that's when things got worse. The teachers I had (from 3rd to 5th grade) looked down on anyone that had a disability, and treated them completely different from the other kids. I remember teachers talking to me more slowly because they thought I was too stupid to comprehend what they were saying, and often having a condescending tone as well. I also remember being called out in front of the whole class several times for habits I had a difficult time controlling, such as fidgeting in my chair or biting my nails (anxiety). This didn't happen to just me, this happened to other kids that they thought were stupid just because they have some sort of learning disability. Also, unless you were known to be well liked/popular, or were in the gifted program (and perhaps both), they didn't like you or care about you. Any claims of bullying were not taken seriously, and they often told victims that they bring it upon themselves. Hopefully some of the old hags I had for teachers have retired and are far away from developing today's young minds. Maybe Penn Wood has changed for the better since I was there, but I highly doubt it. If you have a child with a disability, even if it's very mild and makes them only slightly different from their peers, spend the extra money to send them to a different school where they won't be blatantly discriminated against and made to feel like they're absolutely worthless and stupid on a daily basis.

They refuse to modify any of the coursework, that is all regular work, for Special Needs population that are placed in regular classrooms. They accept IEP's, but don't follow them, because they don't have proper supports nor graduate on IEP goals. They don't listen to the parent's concerns, they just want to do what they want to move the child forward to their standards in their biased views. This is not an acceptable school for any Special Needs child, no support from teachers or administration.
