I am fortunate enough to have transitioned my career and I now work with the most awesome people. Everyone cares for each other and it can be felt! My students are incredible, they are very smart and super kind. You will never find any bullying or any type of things that you may find at other schools. I highly recommend this school for your children. Ms. Christy, Ms. Teresa and Ms. Kelly are ALWAYS available for everything, I am very fortunate to be colleagues with them!

This school is a joke. Inconsistent punishments are handed out regularly, rules only apply if…read moreyou're not a favorite. Teachers and office staff openly favor girls, borderline sexist against boys. Beta Club is mainly girls, even when qualified males get ignored. Zero male teachers and little diversity, zero role models for boys. Classrooms have exposed wires which is a real electrocution risk. Drunk/high people wander near the school. Hot lunch is barely edible slop, undercooked and gross. Janitor tries hard, but the place is still filthy, especially the male bathroom. Teachers often use AI-generated lessons they clearly don't understand, all while the school greedily pockets tuition for this mess. Save your money and your kids' sanity. Run the other way. Would give 0 stars if I could.

As a parent, writing this review breaks my heart--but I feel it's important to speak up to protect…read moreother families from what I experienced at Highland Learning Center. What I witnessed there was deeply concerning and not at all what you would expect from a place entrusted with the care and development of children. The management is extremely poor and disorganized, with little to no transparency or accountability. Communication with parents is inconsistent at best and often dismissive when concerns are raised. Many of the staff members are unqualified and unprepared to properly care for children to support their learning, which creates an unsafe and chaotic environment. What's most troubling is that the atmosphere does not promote learning, growth, or emotional safety. The children are not engaged in meaningful educational activities, and there seems to be very little curriculum guiding their day. I personally never felt that my child was in a setting that prioritized true education or individualized attention. Even more alarming, the director has made comments that overstep professional boundaries--discussing or suggesting potential medical or behavioral "diagnoses" for children, despite having no medical background or qualifications to do so. This kind of behavior is not only inappropriate but dangerous, and it reflects an unacceptable lack of professional judgment and training. I do not feel that Highland Learning Center is a safe or nurturing place for children, and I would strongly urge other parents to explore other options--regardless of what the school's ratings might say. No rating can make up for the lack of qualified leadership, poor communication, and unsafe environment that I and other families have experienced.

As soon as I walked in, I felt so much comfort and love. My son was in nursery one. The wonderful women in that classroom have filled not only my hearts but every single member in our family. This week is our last week, as we are moving-we all welled up with tears. This center treats our family as theirs. I'm so incredibly saddened that we are leaving but I will forever be grateful for the tender care and love we have received. My son was always so eager and excited walking into those doors. I'm crying as I am writing this. Thank you again! You truly are the definition of Gods Love

This place is crawling with germs. (Sanitation is not a priority here) It is also over priced. Parking is a nightmare. Over crowded classes. The staff has no concern for children's well being. Education programs here are a joke. (They go over one topic which is usually just drawing a coloring page and the rest of the day is playing. They believe children should lay down in the dark for 2 hours straight. "Not to make any sound." If a child hits another child parents aren't called rather its written down on a piece of paper with little explanation. This place should be reported to BBB and SMART PARENTS/Guardian(s)/grandparents etc. should reconsider this place before visiting and enrolling. Your child will learn nothing more then BAD HABITS and DOCTOR VISITS!!!

The staff is very friendly- it's a shame they are understaffed. It took me 3 months to realize the…read morestaff/student ratios were questionable (rooms are often combined right up to the 1:15 that NC allows, especially in the mornings) and my 1 year old never really adjusted to being dropped off in a different room with different teachers each day. Other things to ask about in your tour: additional fees for seasonal activities ($75 "summer fee", $150 "fall fee"), student staff ratio (ask questions when they cite 1:8!), and menu substitutions (spoiler alert: it's always pop tarts). If your little one is small, ask about frequency of diaper changes- the overcrowding sadly leads to soaking wet diapers and, for us, severe rashes. Plan your visit around 8 am to see exactly what I mean about combined rooms and questionable ratios. I was attracted to this center because of the Christian curriculum, but it is NOT 5 star care. There are much better options in the area and my Son now goes to one of them.
