    First off, Yelp REALLY needs to allow a zero star review because businesses like this don't even…read moredeserve the one star you have to give in order to leave the review. I came to write a review on my experience, which was TERRIBLE by the way, and was not shocked at all to see that there are nothing but negative reviews. This agency is a disgusting excuse. I moved here from out of state and was directed to the district to answer a question about registering my son. First of all, the student services phone number goes straight to voicemail, there isn't even an option to speak to a person when you call for this department, you have to leave a message and hurry up and wait. I left a message and waited THREE DAYS to get ONE QUESTION answered and the woman who called me back asked if my questions had been addressed and then hung up on me. She did not attempt to call me back or anything, despite obviously at the very least hearing me say hello, because had she not she would not have proceeded to ask if my concern had been addressed. If your not going to have the option for people to speak with a live person when they call, you could at least have the common courtesy to do your best to make sure that your giving people the opportunity to receive they help they need. I called back and expressed to the receptionist that I had already waited 3 days for a response and was pretty much immediately hung up on and she immediately transferred me right into the voicemail. I called back and she was extremely RUDE advising that it was not her issue and I could either leave another voicemail and wait again or drive down to the office. Once I arrived, the complete and total lack of concern was even more evident as I was greeted by the same women who was not willing to be of any assistance over the phone and additionally she gave me misinformation even being in her face. All in all I had to take a nearly hour round trip drive to ask ONE QUESTION as a result of the complete and total lack of concern, competence, compassion, and a number of other things from this entity. I don't think there is a way around dealing with them but just be aware and don't be surprised when you met with rudeness and incompetence!

    Hate the new superintendent, changed the calendar last year making it harder for planned vacations,…read morechose to change the calendar again this year with some horrible changes, changed the starting time in the high school I attend from 7:25 to 8:33, chose to change it again for the 2024/2025 school year which is truly annoying as it seems they can't make up their mind with all these bad changes happening to the schools and calendar, just keep this current calendar or change it back to the old one, Albuquerque's education has gone down over the years and with the changes placed it only seems to get worse, it seems like they truly don't care about our education and not to mention Albuquerque is rated pretty low when it comes to education, APS has to do better.

    Let me start by saying my son did not attend Annunciation, but was a student of Mrs Susan Deely…read morewhile in San Diego. Mrs Deely is now in a leadership position at this school. God help your school. She left NDA, but not soon enough. The staff and parents were thrilled when she left! But she still had a hand in trying to destroy the lives of some students, by "black balling" them from Cathedral Catholic high school where her husband was principal. He was a stand up guy, but sadly was influenced by her negativity. As a result, the Catholic education for some students ended in 8th grade. Of note, one tactic she used to destroy my son, was when she posted on the overhead projector an email where she gave specifics about his poor performance in school, and of course added her subjective negative comments to the mix. This was in the middle of class for all students to see. Who knows why she did this? This is clearly a violation of the teaching standards. I reported it, but nothing was done. Additionally, she failed to communicate any concerns about his performance to me until May of the school yr. She would not meet with use either. We had to go to the vice principal to address any and all issues. Unprofessional to say the least. My son had to go to the local public school as a result of her vindictive actions. I am sure she left CA thinking he would fail miserably, but just the opposite. He is an amazing young man who thrived. He went on to graduate, spent 4 yrs at a highly sought after west coast university and is living his best life. He enjoys friendships all over the county (and even had 2 recent gf's entered into the Ms America contest this yr). Needless to say, he is not socially awkward like Mrs Deely is. He has it all, the personality, education, focused, career, and surrounded by great people. He will rule the world! He is making a difference in the lives of others. And, no thanks to Susan Deely. My hope is that she has changed and is now able lead a more generous and accepting life that is expected from us Catholics and Catholic educators!

    One of the best decisions my parents and I ever could've made was transferring here my last year of…read moremiddle school. After a bullying problem at one of the other Catholic schools in town, this was a breath of fresh air. Students and staff were very welcoming and was such an easy transition (for an awkward 13 year old girl that is). I learned a lot academically and personally that year. I became better at math and science, and my math teacher (Mrs. Stratmoen) had actually inspired me to pursue math further. A little more expensive than some of the other Catholic schools in town, but well worth it

    When I moved to Albuquerque from Ann Arbor Michigan I couldn't find a day care where I was…read morecomfortable leaving my children. After looking at 13 places a friend suggested Sunset Mesa. With small class sizes, highly trained teachers, language, art, music and Montessori classes this is a complete educational institution. The school has the time to focus on each child, developing individual learning plans, and encouraging each student's interests. This school is also committed to community outreach and developing a love of school which lasts throughout the elementary years. I cannot recommend this school highly enough.

    From the owner: Sunset Mesa Schools' first year was 1948…read more It was founded by Mrs. Beatrice Adkins, a kindergarten teacher and former principal from Ohio who had relatives living in Albuquerque. It was the first kindergarten school in Albuquerque. Mrs. Adkins named the school Sunset Mesa Day School. She enrolled children 4-6 years of age. Kindergarten age children were placed in a junior or senior kindergarten class depending on their developmental readiness. This was likely the first concept for the PreFirst class at Sunset Mesa Schools! Mrs. Adkins was progressive for her time. She was a passionate educator and very specific about her expectations for and responsibilities to, the children who attended Sunset Mesa Day School. The original location of Sunset Mesa Day School was at the intersection of Girard Blvd and Lomas near the University of New Mexico. When Mrs. Adkins sold Sunset Mesa Day School, she had 100+ students and classes for children 4 years old through 3rd grade. History_NC_1970s_02In 1959, Sunset Mesa Schools was sold to Truett and Eulene Sheriff. Mrs. Sheriff was a wonderful educator who was a specialist in Early Childhood Education. Mrs. Sheriff's commitment to the education of young children prompted a strong initiative with three and four year olds. She developed a serious learning program appropriate for that age group. The combination of the already established Kindergarten program and the Early Childhood initiative resulted in numerical growth sufficient to

    While stationed in Albuquerque, my daughter attended the St. John's United Methodist Church…read morePreschool Plus program for a year. She was three years old at the time. The school is located past the Coronado Mall in a beautifully kept church. The church is clean and the classrooms are medium-large and welcoming with cubbies and wonderful activity centers as well as toys. The bulletin boards and walls are kept neat with projects posted and daily and weekly activity records listed. School starts promptly and ends promptly; the school does offer before and after care, and if a child needs either care once in a while and there is room, the school allows it and the care is rather inexpensive. School starts at 9:30 p.m. and ends at 1:00 p.m. It is a nut-free school and lunches must be packed. Snacks are brought in by the parents and rotated depending on the teacher. Our teacher had us rotate by week and I enjoyed trying out new healthy recipes on the kids who, for the most part, seemed to enjoy them. The curriculum for the three year old class was outstanding. Although my daughter did not come home with papers everyday, thankfully, she always told me about what she learned and how much she loved school. At this age, a lot of the teaching involves play, but St. John's also included the whole alphabet in the curriculum and thoroughly went through it. I was also impressed that they involved the kids in the 2008 presidential election process. My daughter's teacher was very experienced and I felt that she gave my daughter great attention. The teacher-to-student ratio is also quite low which helps as well. As a Christian institution, it also supplied the Christian values we wanted our daughter to learn about even though I and some other families who attended were not Christian. Keep in mind when factoring in price into education that St. John's has ASCI accreditation and although it may at first seem costly, it is well worth it. The current preschool in Ohio, where my youngest daughter is attending and my eldest attended, costs about the same and is on par with educational value.

    Amazing school!!!!! Amazing staff!!!!! My son loves it here. I'm sad this is his last year there…read more Some of the staff has become like family to us. Another plus is that it's a smaller school, and they are Nationally Accredited. They go above and beyond to make their families at home.
