  When we first joined this program, we were very excited. They had great teachers, and good admin staff and we have been here with both our kids for almost 3 years now. But in the last year, they have changed principles 3 times, instituted a ridiculous uniform policy for kids still learning to use the toilet just to conform to corporate standards at the elementary school, and now they fired one of the most caring and hardworking Pre-K teachers in the middle of the year so our kid won't have a dedicated teacher for the last half of his Pre-K year. This school has definitely changed, and from what I can gather, it's all due to the out of touch corporate administration caring more for the bottom line and conformity than our kids. Seriously consider going somewhere else if any of that bothers you.

  We’ve absolutely loved our time at Merryhill Laguna! My daughter had a very tough time at the start of the school year, but all the staff were so supportive at drop off & had great communication through the school’s app. I really like how the app makes it easy to message the school, receive pictures of your child, read the daily report on what they are doing (learning, eating, reading etc) & access the newsletters/updates. So much love for Ms Sara as our intermediate teacher (among others that are no longer at the school)! The start of this school year was a breeze, in comparison to last year, which I think is a true testament to how Merryhill Laguna creates a safe & fun environment for children to grow. My daughter is so resilient & begs to get dropped off to school early because she can’t wait to go play with her friends. We love Ms Nimfa & Ms Kyrin as our pre-k teachers! I can tell they will prepare their students well for kindergarten & I am so glad we decided to do one more year at Merryhill instead of TK at our neighborhood public school. Principal Kathleen is very approachable & responsive to any concerns I’ve had. The school is diverse in the student & staff population, which was important for our family. Also, they go above & beyond to put on events for parents to attend with their children (Fiesta, grandparents day, mother’s & Father’s Day, Thanksgiving cultural feast, breast cancer walk, trunk or treat etc.). I highly recommend Merryhill Laguna & will be sending my 2nd little one there this coming spring.

  I will 100% recommend Merryhill to anyone I know searching for a private school. In the beginning I was hesitant on starting my little one in school, but after the tour, getting any and every question answered, and then after one week of going he was showing his excitement the moment we pulled in the parking lot. That to me tells me I made the right decision. Everyone there from the lovely principal Ms. Kathleen, her fabulous assistant principal Ms. Vanessa, our teachers Ms. Sofia & Ms. Kat to everyone in between makes it feel like a second home. We are already 4 months in and I am noticing a huge improvement on speech, showing me all the colors they’re learning, and sharing and interacting with kids. I promise, it’s worth every penny.

  We love Merryhill Preschool Laguna. They welcomed us even though we enrolled our daughter late in the fall 2023. The teachers are caring and they update us of what activities our kid is doing. They have different and exciting themes for learning each month that makes us parents involved. Miss Mckenzie, the principal, is very nice, helpful and approachable; all of the staff are very nice. Tk teachers Debbie and Nimfa treats our daughter kindly and gives fair and honest assessment and comments to our kid’s report. My child developed a lot of skills during her time here and she likes the school a lot. The place is safe and very pleasant environment/ community around the school.

  We've only been at this location for a few months, but it's become a second home. Lisa and Linda run that location amazingly and are so understanding. Keep it up ladies.
