My daughter was kicked out to cover their own ass since she knew how to push open the door and get out. Not at fault of her own but the schools fault not making it safe for kids.

My daughter has absolutely thrived here and grown into a kind and compassionate leader. Her curiosity is never stifled and when she talks about what they do in class her understanding of topics is so holistic. It's very clear she doesn't just learn topics discretely but learns about how all things relate to other components of what she is learning. We love MSH!

This school is magical. The teachers are wonderful, the classes are rich, and the student body is…read morediverse in every way. Their respect for kids and the expectations of self-motivation and community responsibility are game-changing. Many students are fine and happy in a typical school setting; mine wasn't, and finding the Schoolhouse for his middle school years has lightened and brightened him immeasurably. Highly, highly recommend. (And make sure you tour with or at least meet the teachers--admin is lovely but can be misleadingly stoic and unrepresentative of the actual student experience and environment.)

It is our responsibility to let you know the nightmare we experienced with Casita Feliz. My wife &…read moreI picked up our daughter an hour earlier than normal to find out that neither of the two teachers had any idea where my 24 month old child was at. My wife suggested looking outside. And there she was alone, cold, with wet pants. This happened right after the Sandy Brook school shooting, you would think that they would be even more cautious about keeping the kids safe. We estimate that she was outside for at least 45 minutes since the teachers was collecting the empty plates and few children were still finishing their meals. It was so cold that day, which the supervisor in the front commented about the cold windy weather and the snow on the mountains. She cried all the way home and cried for another 30 mins at home as she usually did (we were told this was normal). Looking back this may have happened before, since some of her snacks were returned untouched in her lunch bag... Yes, a teacher was fired but how Casita Feliz dealt with us afterwards is alarming. When we called the head manager we expected her to want to meet with us so she could add to her investigation and take appropriate action to prevent this from happening again. Instead we had a disappointing conversation with someone reluctant to meet, who had not investigated and had no intention to ask us what we witnessed; lack of interest showed lack of concern or urgency. She was clueless about how long our daughter was out there or lying; neither is acceptable. When asked about the cameras in the playground she stated that the owner was the only one who viewed the footage periodically! We asked for the owner to call us and you guessed it no call back. Ever since this incident our little confident kid now is so afraid of being alone that she must able to see us at all times...she can't nap anymore, and bedtime is now scary for her. For us now the task of searching for a new daycare makes us sick to the stomach. We wish for you and ourselves to find a daycare were our kids are safe and loved.
