I feel so strongly about how great this school is that I am also on the board, as it is a non-profit. They treat the teachers with the respect that they deserve and don't send them home without pay when the numbers are down for the day. If the numbers are down, our kids get more interaction with more teachers. Did I mention how great the teachers are! My daughter has thrived at CCL and loves going to "school" everyday. You do have to walk up stairs as the space is rented from the church, but that has actually taught my daughter stair safety at a very early age. I cannot recommend CCL highly enough. The space is a bit dated, but they have tons of toys for the kids and they love it, so don't let the space fool you, this place is great.

My step son just did us this fundraiser for school. As parents who care we feel obligated to…read moreparticipate. The cost f value embarrassing. I will never do this fundraiser again and will recommend to other organizers as well to look for something better - good old fashioned candy bars even for $2 would be better. It is ridiculously expensive. not only are you paying $30 for 12 oz of popcorn or nuts, They then hit you with a service fee 1.74 and $9.99 in shipping which you don't see until the end. Not everyone especially elderly people want to or have the ability to do things online. I would have rather given the $40 to the school so they would get all the money. We had so many people refuse to do this fundraiser for that reason - if this is charity, why charge a service fee, really ! Then we don't even have an option to have the product delivered in one place and pick it up. Yes, it's convenient in this day and age but you are certainly paying for that connivance now without a choices. who pays $150 for popcorn ??? I'm in marketing and this product is so cheap to produce the mark up is close to 100%- again for Charity. Just disgusting and the product is not even worth that price! The nuts we got liked and tasted old. Try to support your kids another way go get your school to just take checks! I'd love up even know how much of that money the kids actually see!!! This organization should be ashamed of themselves taking advantage of family and char organizations! I was a girl scout troupe leader, a CCD teacher and a cheer Coach, I know about fundraising. This is not it. Try canning we did great at it!

As long-term parents of LMS, we cannot say enough good things about the school. Our children have…read morecompleted the preschool cycle, the three-year lower elementary cycle, and are now in upper elementary, and throughout the process, the highly qualified staff and teachers have consistently encouraged them to be independent in their learning. As someone who specializes in education, I recognize the importance of self-motivation, and LMS has exceeded our expectations in promoting this for our children. The academic breadth and depth of learning at LMS have surpassed our expectations. Although some may worry that the "freedom" in learning styles may lead to falling behind, LMS has a packed, comprehensive, and individualized curriculum that is tailored to the needs and skills of each child. Additionally, standardized testing is introduced starting in fourth grade. The independence fostered at LMS, instead of being a constraint, I trust that it will benefit our children for a lifetime. In addition to the excellent academics, LMS also hosts numerous activities throughout the year to build a sense of community, including culture fest, ice cream socials, a 5k, book clubs, volunteering opportunities, farming, and many more. The children have had very few conflicts, if any, during our time at LMS, as the staff and teachers are conscientious and work closely with parents to address concerns as soon as they arise. Overall, we have been extremely satisfied with our experience at LMS and would highly recommend it to other families.

We moved to a different state, otherwise they would still be at this school.

Even in the short few years that we were there, I could see how being at the school made our kids more creative and gave them great social skills. Our kids still miss their old school.

He comes home full of stories about the activities they did and stuff he learned. We especially enjoy the storyboard from Mrs. Levine's class that our 3 year old son can recite back all by himself.

Our family had such a good experience with Waverley Square Daycare, I can't recommend it enough!…read moreBoth of my children attended this program as soon as we moved in Lexington. My Pre-K son, blossomed literally. The ratio student/teacher is low, the academic side is taught in a sensory way. Children learn at play. Every children is considered as a special person, they learn how to manage their emotions and how to interact with others. My daughter spent 3 years from toddler to Pre-K. Waverley Square was a second home, teachers were so kind that she even asked to go to school on week-ends and vacation. When entering into Kindergarten, she was emotionally and socially ready for this big jump. The little friends she met there, are still very important for her she is very connected with them even if they don't attend the same school. More than leading a classroom or a day care, the staff organizes many events through the year : Halloween, St Valentine's day, sports support (Go Red Soks! Go Patriots! Go!), St Patrick's Day, Dr Seuss' week, Mother's Day,.... As a parent, I felt as belonging to a great festive community!! I feel very grateful to Monoshini and her team for everything they have done for our children and our family.
