What Parents Say
Parents report mixed experiences at this kindergarten program. Three parents praised the school highly, noting strong academics including advanced reading levels and Chinese immersion options. However, two parents raised serious concerns about organizational issues, including a critical miscommunication about bus transportation and ongoing problems with lost or missing belongings.
After communicating with front office staff, child's teacher, and leaving a note inside my son's backpack about him being dropped off to school and picked up, not to ride the bus. His first day of kindergarten they put him on the bus! The front staff is horrible and incompetent. I have never had this happen to my children ever! This place is unorganized chaos and I am looking to see if I can get him to a better school.
Ever since my son has gone to the school I have had an issue with jackets and now hats. It is winter time so it is crucial that they are not lost. But somehow every time he goes to school he seems to come home with something missing. I am really getting tired of having to buy multiple hats and jackets only for them to get lost or stolen. Either there's a thief in my son's class or it just magically disappears. All of this with only half of the school year. I wonder what next year is going to bring.
My son goes here for kindergarten and he loves it. I love it. He is 6 yrs old and is already reading at a 2nd grade level. Thank you mcllvaine for the wonderful things you taught my son. God Bless.
Both of my grandson's attended kindergarten here and were enrolled in Chinese immersion. This is an A+ school!
My daughter went to the school and it was wonderful then and it's wonderful now
