I wrote this review specifically to go against Allan, Menan, and Celito. There are many topics to…read morecover including sexual abuse, toxic environment, kids cheating their way with money, faculty destroying student self worth, and it just being an overall terrible school. First I would like to cover sexual abuse. Going to Allan's example of sexual assault with Anthony du Bourg, he stated that Anthony was a teacher in the 60s and walked "through the locker room when we were undressed." In other words Mr. Anthony walked through the locker room in the 60s when Allan was changing. That means if Allan in 2017 would be pretty old. Not only this, but all of the other examples given by other reviews happened every 20 years and have no solid evidence. These reviews also state that there are better schools in the area, Newark Academy, Delbarton, Kent Place, and so much more have terrible incidents that are far worse than Pingry's. These claims have a high chance of not being true and there is no school in the world that has no creepos lingering. Considering that there are only 3 alleged assaulters for a school history of almost 200 years is really amazing. Now I would like to talk about the supposed toxic environment. Anywhere you go in life there will always be toxic people. I believe that Menan is just a parent who had a kid hang around the wrong crowd. The Pingry School also has amazing staff and faculty that can support anyone at anytime. Compared to other private schools and public schools Pingry is nowhere near as toxic. According to Allan people were racist and really toxic, the 1960s was a really long time ago and the world was really different. I understand that numerous students agree with me and love their school. For kids cheating their way with money, this is completely untrue. I have been at Pingry for a very long time and I can't tell you how many kids have been expelled for vaping, doing drugs, sexual assault, racism, and more vile actions. Pingry is extremely strict with this and the honor code is not used as a weapon, but more as a guideline. There are kids that got expelled immediately with billionaires for parents and have not been on school grounds since. Faculty destroying student self worth is the topic I disagree with the most. There are so many trusted adults in the school and for the reviews saying that they suck probably got failed and just trying to throw dirt. The teachers are very uplifting and help the students non-stop. Teachers also might favor students, but thats alright because whatever school you go to that might happen and it is not all the teachers at Pingry that do that. Pingry is an amazing school and If it was so terrible then why is it the third best school in NJ on Niche? I am not sure what these clowns are thinking putting these reviews, but is a Saturday night and this took like 20 minutes. Guaranteed all of these clowns are either Pingry rejects or got expelled. I also believe at least one of these reviews are a middle schooler thinking that they are funny, but in reality they just have nothing better to do. PS. Nobody hacking into your account and your other reviews don't really make your image look better

All of that is great but being a neuroscientist, I wanted my children to learn and socialize properly. This schools keeps the kids engaged in many educational activities, while also giving loving care, developing their interpersonal skills, manners, and having fun with music and art. I can't tell you how many art projects come home and all the great pictures we see on line. The children learn sign language to help them communicate at a young age and have outdoor play and activities. My son is 2 1/2 and knows all the alphabet, counts to 25, recognizes his name, knows the sounds of most letters and words they begin with. Which demonstrates the amazing commitment by the teachers and approach the school takes to not only care for the children but, nurture and develop them. Highly recommended.

Our family was defrauded by Cedar Hill Prep…read more We were promised small class sizes and first-class facilities. When our child started school, it was apparent that they had repurposed an old storage room, and that the student:teacher ratio was far worse than advertised. When we complained about the state of the classroom, rather than do the right thing and hire additional staff, the school administration expelled our child from the school on zero days' notice, despite having no documented behavioral or academic issues of any kind. During the expulsion meeting, the administration admitted to being unable to hire additional staff and _intentionally_ overbooking the class sizes during registration. The founder of this school is obsessed with metrics. If your child represents a threat to one of those metrics (be it student-teacher ratio, standardized test scores, etc.) then they will absolutely throw your child under the bus to make the school look better. Be warned.

At one point she saw a staff member scratching another one's scalp dropping dandruff where the kids eat. I was accused by staff of calling the child abuse hotline a second time when a report was filed that staff to child ratios were not being maintained. I knew nothing of this situation but the last straw was that even though I did not make the call I felt that the staff seemed more concerned with who made the report than correcting the problem. I pulled my son out of there due to obvious concern for his safety but the owner would not refund me my secuirty deposit. Place is poorly run and disorganized. Price is cheap but you clearly get what you pay for. Avoid at all costs. Also, I believe that the owner of the facility responded to my review on another site with a fake one.

I believe that I am the paying customer and I am always right but with here that wasn't the case. One day I came into the daycare because I wanted to check up on my son while napping and not a teacher was insight or in the building. After being in the daycare for about 10 minutes a teacher came running over and told me that she was sorry and had to go run and get something from the building next store. Not to mention, there were children standing up and walking around without supervision. So many times I have been upset at this place and how they run their business, its horrible. Betty has a nasty attitude- she seems nice at first but we had gotten into an argument once I pulled my son out of the daycare and confronted her about her nasty and unorganized location and she threw my sond playard and toys on the steps, which was very unproffessional. I wouldn't recommend anyone go here, maybe the one in Piscataway but this one is not ran well.
