A precious review said it's set up as a prison but I don't find that to be true at all. It's built with multiple building and fencing around the perimeter to keep the kids safe...and this day in age that's a big plus!! Dr Reid is the school principal and my boys love him. He takes the drop off and pick up zone pretty serious- so follow the rules and directions for that area or you'll find him tapping your window glass ha ha! Mr. Trout and Mr. Todd are awesome and my kids really look forward to fist bumping or high "fiveing" them every chance they get. We had a great experience with Mrs Woods, Mrs McDonald and Mrs Cirqua. Mrs Greer is new so I think I would cut her some slack but I feel like she shouldn't be teaching kindergarten-she doesn't have the patience or endurance for that age and needs an older classroom level. We're looking forward to many more years at Entz!

She will be moving on to a gifted school for first grade, but if she had not been accepted into Knox Gifted Academy, I would have happily kept her at Dobson. Her teacher, Mrs. Ambrose, was truly a gem. One of those teachers where you can clearly see how much she loves what she does and how much she cares for her students. Her assistant teacher, Mrs. Padilla, was also amazing! Very involved and always proactive in coming to me with updates or concerns about my daughter, Vivienne. Every morning when you walked into the school, you were greeted with smiles and uplifting music that set a positive tone for the day.

Safari review This…read morereview is split into 2 parts and may be a bit confusing but I feel only right to say both sides of my experience for future parents. My daughter has been coming here for 2.5 years and for the most part has had a great time. She's made some friends and the teachers have almost all been great. Her current teacher Ms Andrea is so great, easy to talk to and is great with the class.My daughter likes going to school and has fun which is the main thing. So thank you to her teachers. However when we put my 2yr old in it did not go as planned. I spoke to about 5 different teachers the weeks leading up to him starting about him needing help on the toilet as he was still new to going to the bathroom as he literally just turned 2 the month before. they all told me "yeah sure, we can help him" "no problem" "that's awesome that he's in underwear,makes my life easier". Needless to say, each day he peed on his pants while sitting on the toilet (never an accident, always when sat on the toilet) Over the 5 days I spoke to 7 different teachers at pickup (which is a problem in itself) about him needing help pushing it down to pee, all said "ohhh I didn't know, I'll help next time" day 5 came and we'd had enough, my son was crying his eyes out at pick up, in a pull up (clothes were in his backpack). I asked the teacher in there if she helped him and she said " I just watched him". We were told from the director that she'd message everyone about helping him, and they will do hand over hand so no one was physically touching him (which I get, that's what I did in my old day care for 5 years In the potty training room),then on the drive home, 5 minutes later, they phoned to say no one would be helping him as the bathroom had no cameras, the room would be out of ratio and they just couldn't help. If I'd have been told that before starting him I would have waited until he was more confident going alone. It's such a shame that it happened as my daughter had a great time and her teachers I've encounter there were good. Ms Sarah, Ms Jessica, Mr Chris, Mr Aaron and again Ms Andrea, were all great, they get 5 Stars. Since I found this school by looking at reviews, my advice would be if you have a kid who can go to the bathroom alone, then go, but I would not go if you have a child needing help in the bathroom/not potty trained yet.

Newvista is a school that you would really like after a switch from public school but as you spend…read moremore time, you will realize a lot of things that need attention. Math and ElA curriculum hasn't changed over decades which they consider a strength ( may be it is in ELA but not in math) but kids excelling in math at nvce struggle anywhere and everywhere.Text books are so old that even school has had time stocking them.One of the reasons curriculum doesn't change is because teachers esp in advanced grades know how to teach that book but not necessarily that topic so they simply stick with those old books for comfort level of teachers. Teacher's qualification is not disclosed on website .Many of them probably don't hold any degree in what they are reaching.Bejng a private school, teachers don't have to comply with ongoing education/training .School doesn't participate in AZ standardized tests Infact has its own metrics/standardized tests so you are unable to really see where it stands compared to rest of the school. School really focuses on grouping based on kids levels which creates an unhealthy competition among class and parents.A lot of teacher tutor right after school dismisses and students taught by the teachers during those sessions, are then able to advance into higher groups so basically you spend more money after paying the monthly tuition.This is a very very common trend. School participates in national history day which is good but problem is the teacher who runs that is very biased.Years ago when her own child was participated in these competitions ( from middle school to high school), he would win awards in almost all categories.People felt nepotism at its very best. You pay for almost all the clubs and extracurriculars.Schools playground is too small.My child dreaded music and foreign language.Kids only do singing on music and no instruments at taught all.kids only learn numbers in Spanish pretty much the entire time.
