One detailed negative review cites communication issues, overly punitive discipline practices, forced napping policies, and concerns about curriculum content.
My son attended pre school and kindergarten at the learning academy. He had one on one time with the teachers due to small classes. Teachers are nice and caring specially Mrs. Joan. He love going to the school that’s why we kept him for kindergarten. Will definitely recommend this school.
I can't say enough good things about this school. Joan, the director, is a phenomenal educator and overall lovely person. They offer a nice balance of play based education while still focusing on academics. The classrooms are clean and the teachers are strict about adhering to Covid guidelines. Joan and her staff have a lifetime of experience in education, and they bring their expertise into the classroom everyday. Miss Lilian is the preschool teacher and is just a blessing. I don't know what we would have done without her caring demeanor and patience with both of our children. My favorite part about the school is the music and drama Joan brings into the curriculum. There are multiple performances throughout the year and the children love it! All children have an opportunity to play a part, without the stress of "trying out". Songs, costumes and choreography all done by Joan. She's amazing! I also like that the building is set away from the street, so strangers can't just watch the kids play. That's a pet peeve of mine. It's nestled away behind a church, off of Blossom Hill so it's easy to get to, but still away from traffic and strangers' access (not affiliated with the church). I also love the sense of family here. All of the parents chat and stay connected, which is great. Anytime I hear someone looking for a preschool-kinder school for their child, I recommend The Learning Company and Academy.
My daughter attended The Learning Company and Academy from 2022 till summer of 2023 and she loved it! She loved all her teachers especially Mrs. Joan and she loved their music program. Everyday she used to come home and sing and teach me her songs. We felt it was a good balance of play, extra curriculars and academics. We used to love the shows where the children used to perform duringq Christmas, Halloween, July 4th etc. The teachers were loving and caring and she loved to go to the school. She made some really good friends there. Thanks to Ms. Joan and her team.
My kid has been a student at this school for ~ 2 years now, so this review is not merely based on "a session". Before this, we tried 2 other schools. While the other schools were good and teachers were nice, my kid did not appear as excited as we see with TLC. This will be a short review for now but I plan on adding a few more details so anybody reading all the comments gets a balanced perspective. Every parents love their kid and wants the best for them but that feeling shouldn't affect how a teacher's sincerity towards their student. I will also add some pictures along with the issues we had and how we resolved it.
My child has been attending for three months, and I’ve seen tremendous growth and learning during this time. The supervisors are incredibly responsible, caring, and honest. It’s a great environment for children's development. They’re humble and don’t advertise themselves much, but I want more people to know about this amazing place!
