Both of our kids go here (age 5 and 2) and we are so happy to be part of the school and community here. Our oldest has been since preschool and is now in the Kindergarten class. Miss Sarah who leads the class is wonderful. She has a Montessori background and really works to adapt the program for each individual kid. Our youngest is in Preschool Pathways now and is so comfortable at the school. It’s expensive but we’re happy paying seeing the quality of care we get for our kids.

I DO NOT recommend this school.
Long story short — after trusting this facility with my two children for years, I raised a concern that my 2-year-old might have been physically abused. The staff said they would conduct an investigation, but when we followed up, we were accused of threatening the school instead. When we asked for proof of this claim, they admitted they had none but insisted their new employee “wouldn’t make it up.”
On top of that, the employee turnover is extremely high. Only about five teachers have been there long-term, while the rest seem to change constantly. It got to the point where we often didn’t even know who my child’s teacher was from week to week.
This likely explains why so many families have decided to leave.
Even after a month, I’m still requesting the return of my son’s belongings, and they haven’t taken any action yet
I highly recommend visiting The Golden Pond School, The Goddard School, The Gardner School, and Winwood — you’ll notice the difference immediately.
Edit on 11/19 based on the school’s response:
I want to clarify that my concerns were NOT addressed appropriately when I brought them directly to the school. My intention was never to be disrespectful, but to advocate for my child’s safety and well-being.
While I appreciate the mention of policies and protocols, my experience DID NOT reflect the level of communication, transparency, or CARE that families should expect. The way this situation was handled DOES NOT REFLECT that families or their concerns are a TRUE PRIORITY.
I hope that sharing this helps bring awareness so other parents feel heard when concerns arise
