Teachers are great at communicating here, we couldn't make it to our sons parent teacher conference so she called us and had a phone conference instead, they are so good at working around busy schedules too! Highly recommend this school to anyone in the area.

This is not a place where they care about your child or put the child's needs ahead of the school--they ONLY care about the money coming in and the reputation of the school . There is a sickness in the administration. Don't get me wrong, there are some good people and good teachers there. The problems come from the administration. If you encounter any problems of any kind, they will close ranks and defend the school at all cost. They will side with the biggest donor, they will manipulate you to keep your tuition flowing. Take my advice, as a parent of two children who have attended CDS for the past 7 years, choose another school.

Furthermore, there's a notable lack of professionalism from the administration and office staff. Advocating for your child is discouraged, and if you do, expect rude and upsetting responses. Your child may be seen merely as a financial asset, with little regard for their actual education. The school's "A" rating is solely due to a policy change, as they are unwilling to address safety concerns or any other issues. If you don't speak English, unfortunately, you're marginalized under this administration. Evite inscribir a sus hijos aquí. Han surgido numerosos problemas de seguridad desde que la nueva administración asumió en 2022, como la salida de maestros a mitad de año, bloqueos frecuentes, acoso sin control y violaciones a las leyes de aulas abarrotadas y los derechos de los niños para usar el baño. Además, hay una notable falta de profesionalismo por parte de la administración y el personal de la oficina. Desalientan la defensa de su hijo y, si lo hace, espere respuestas groseras e inquietantes. Su hijo podría ser considerado simplemente como un activo financiero, con poca consideración por su educación real. La calificación "A" de la escuela se debe únicamente a un cambio de política, ya que no están dispuestos a abordar preocupaciones de seguridad u otros problemas.

We ended up transferring our children to a different preschool after coming to understand the differences in teaching philosophies and methodologies in "traditional" preschools, like Bowman Academy, and some of the alternative programs, like Montessori and Waldorf. We felt our circumstances were best served elsewhere, but I cannot say enough good things about our children's teachers; Mrs. Bobbie (amazing!!!!), Mrs. Susan, Mrs. Kidder and Mrs. Emily. Truly caring and talented teachers. There was an administrative change at Bowman that I feel created some turbulence, but it is the teachers that matter most.

After researching, visiting, and experiencing 2 other preschools, I have been beyond happy with them. This is the most caring, loving, kind, generous, and flexible team I've ever come across, even in my own business interactions. They absolutely cater to the families as a unit, respond quickly and efficiently, and have the most loving staff. Bowman has created a culture of teachers and caregivers that excel at making the children feel comfortable and loved, while the parents feel supported and "heard." I'll never forget the first day of school for my daughter, who was of course crying for me not to leave, and the teacher (whom I simply love and trust, as I do all of them) looked at me and said "the faster you make your departure, the more easy it will be for her." I trusted her, I kissed my daughter and left (and of course cried my eyes out in the parking lot). She was right, and my children have always felt safe and protected there as a product of that compassionate and confident leadership their teachers exude. You won't find a better preschool... just hope you can get on their list.

My children have also gone to another "A" school in Westchase and this one might be slightly better, but not by much. All the schools in this area are great schools. AR (Accelerated Reading) testing is encouraged at this school, so my kids do a lot of reading and visits to the library. The AGP program is swift and challenging so your gifted children will thrive here, although science isn't included only math. The last school my children attended included math and science. There are good extracurricular activities available. My children participated in Running Club which is a favorite. There's also chess club and all types of music programs. The music program is fantastic. Mr. Washburn keeps in touch with the parents of children in chorus or any other music program and pushes the children to show artistic creativity in their performances.

Most of the teachers are great and my kids really enjoyed going here. The grounds are kept up pretty good and clean. The drop off and especially the pick up lines are still in need of a better system as it takes almost 45 minutes to pick up each child so you have to prepare for all that. The administration staff seem to have it together as this school again is an A rated school and the leaders of the school have a big part in keeping it that was every single year. School is in Westchase and in a great area for a school. Makes me feel that my child is safe as they have certain policies and systems in place.
