Despite all the "I don't know how to _______, I went to North Penn" jokes, and the ESPN 2000…read moreFootball documentary debacle, North Penn is a top class school, ranked among the best in an area that honestly has quite a few great high schools. I graduated in 99, so I was in the era of our sports teams dominating at everything, but as far as I know, the teams are still good, even if they aren't #1. And there is an abundance of non-athletic extracurricular activities. From art, to activism, to music, to politics, and beyond. The student government actually has a big hand in running the school, rather than essentially being elected in name only. And I had very few of those stereotypical "getting through to retirement" bitter teachers. GO KNIGHTS! Uh, duh. Edited to add the best thing of all (and I swear if they don't exist anymore, I'll burn my yearbooks and break ties with NPHS forever). CREAMIES! You have to love a school that offers, almost at the price of a a full lunch, two giant chocolate chip cookies filled with a frosting made simply of shortening and sugar. And I wonder why I'm chubby.

The Quaker values that are an integral part of the school community help your child become a better person. My son is kind, generous, has empathy toward others, and has excellent critical thinking skills. My husband and I are not rich and made sacrifices to allow our son to attend AFS. It was worth every penny. Contrary to other reviews, it is not a school for the wealthy and they celebrate community diversity. Every child deserves the education that AFS provides, and I cannot recommend it highly enough.

I honestly cannot believe what our experience has been like with Newtown Friends School. It was…read morerecommended to us by an acquaintance whose children attend there and love it. Small classes, progressive values such as inclusivity and diversity, values that so much seemed to reflect our own. It just so happens that our fourth grader was the victim of a crime over the summer before attending this new school. His behavior was affected by this event and, initially, NFS staff, using their language of partnership and collaboration, provided support that had an immediate positive impact. As they expressed a willingness to collaborate with us so did they decide NOT to actually collaborate. The simple recommendation was to keep the support in place and unchanged for a number of months. For whatever their reason, they chose not to do so. This immediately set our child up for failure as they made changes to the support that was working perfectly. Despite our efforts to collaborate, they simply changed it with no regard to what would work for our son. As a result, he was basically set up for failure. Our bright and motivated 9-year-old boy was never in so much trouble as he was at NFS. He was clearly under their critical microscope and their lack of understanding, empathy and unwillingness to work with him was both shocking and obvious. We decided that this school was definitely not a match for him or for our family. The values that they tout are good on paper but our experience is that none of them were genuine and there was no caring about our child, family or experience. "Teaching the whole child", and all of their "partnership", was chewed up and spit out along with us. But they made a point of keeping our.overpayment. Please know that NFS collects tuition fully in advance of the school year being complete. So if you invest in this place for your child's education and well-being, be prepared to lose your money if your child is deemed not good enough by those on high in administration. A sad reflection of Quaker values equating to a complete and total lack of empathy, enormous hypocrisy and obvious greed.

The fact…read morethat it isn't is why we all should stop reading yelp reviews and hug our oldest living relatives immediately. PARENTS BEWARE: Don't send your child to Miss Joan's Little School. Your child may be viciously bitten in the arm by a small boy with an eye patch and buck teeth. My son will be traumatized for LIFE due to this terrible act of violence, and the institution did nothing other than suspend the culprit for three days. NOT ENOUGH. This environment of propagated violence is completely clear from the moment you drop your son or daughter to this creative "learning" center. Children begin their day by singing ridiculous songs about sharing and mutual respect, and are fed terrible snacks conjured up from some liberal health nut's cookbook: something like California Raisins and saltines. My kid may have scurvy for all I know. No gluten or nuts are provided due to other student's allergies. IT IS ABSOLUTELY ABSURD. From there, it only gets worse. instead of learning useful skills like mathematics and balancing a personal checkbook, the kids play silly and aggressive games like duck duck goose and "Baby in the Air" whatever the hell that is. It sounds like abortion to me. The instructors, and I use that term loosely, spend at least a half an hour reading to the children instead of trusting in their own abilities to make out the meanings of books by helpful pictorial guides. Then, after lulling the kids into a state of hypnosis with soporific stories and undernourishment, the teachers tell the kids they can just pull out a sleeping bag and take a nap. These are kids, aren't they? They have LOADS of energy and don't need to be treated like hungover teenagers. Besides, I don't want my young boy coming home energized by preschool after I just spent a 9 hour day at work. I want him to feel like he learned something, exhausted by the new and fascinating world set before him, not amped up on games, puzzles, building blocks, and world literature. After my son's dental shanking, ER visit, and five stitches, the school had the NERVE to settle this between us and the little bastard's parents. and when pressed by his "attorney" father and "interior designer" mother, do you know what that wretched boy claimed? He claimed he bit my son after my boy kissed his girlfriend and pushed him off a swing. EWW. The fact that a four year old would even imagine having a girlfriend offends me. The school must be promoting sex or showing one of those subversive Disney movies like Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid: both trashy films about interracial dating and bestiality. So you heard it here first. Ignore the overall five star rankings on Yelp and take it from me. Miss Joan's Little School is garbage and creative learning breeds violence and promiscuity. I'm sure the nearly 40 years of "preschool excellence" are about to run up, and I'll be the first to have seen it coming.

As for the building itself, it was clean, had clean bathrooms, was huge but had signage so you couldn't get lost and I found my way easily as I walked the halls and took the elevator. On this time, I tested and failed, but I will be back again soon to retest for my license until I pass the exam. After the test, the women were so nice and encouraged me to come back and keep trying.
