RCN is the best school ever! My son absolutely loves going to RCN and the staff is wonderful. They help in so many different ways from learning to community resources for parents and even hosting events that help build relationships with the staff and community. They are truly amazing and so supportive and I’m glad my son is a part of this great school. The only thing I’m sad about is that we didn’t find RCN sooner! 10/10 recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My son is getting bit and hit nearly everyday and the teacher asked him what did you do to get bit? They didn't even see it happen. A child should feel save and there is zero reason another child puts a hands on other children. I was told because Jack was too close to them, that is the reason he deserved to get hit and bit , seriously? They should validate his feelings and keep the two separate. This happened earlier in the year when a non verbal child kept pushing my son and I was told that's how he communicates and it is a "misunderstanding" on my son's part. My child was scared to go to school.
Both of my daughters had wonderful experiences at RCN. My oldest daughter went from young toddler to Pre-K with RCN and it has helped shape her ability to accept others who are different and be empathetic to her peers. She had wonderful teachers all the years she was there and comes back to visit as a successful RCN alumni. My youngest daughter was with RCN in the toddler room, she is now in Pre-K, and Ms. Caitlin (her toddler teacher) is still her favorite teacher. She visits her often and we are still in touch. My daughter's experience with her was very positive and loving. Both my daughters were always safe and well taken care of at RCN.
This is a great place for a first start to schooling. I loved this place & the teachers for my daughter. This was her Pre-K school and she has truly learned so much. Her growth is phenomenal & it shows so much that she has learned alot from attending this school. The teachers & the teachers assistants are very good with the children. Not only are the teacher good with communication, the school did a wonderful job handling communication with Covid & if there were case present at the school. I appreciate that so much. I had a positive experience with this school & so did my daughter. I do highly recommend this school. My daughter even attend the Seummer Leap proogram at the school & loved it. Keep up the great work!
My son went to preschool at RCN and we loved the program. The teachers and staff really care about the children and are wonderful support for families
