They do a lot for the kids and always keeping them and the families in mind. They instill the principles of Covey's "7 Habits" and the "Leader in Me" program into these young minds. I think that's great! They even have "learning labs" where parents come in and teach for a couple hours their own trade/profession so the children can learn new and exciting things that are not in the everyday curriculum. Another interesting thing they do, or i should say DON'T do is, they don't have third-party fundraising. They just have donations or their own school fundraising. They are no selling of candy, cookies, wrapping paper, etc. They make the money by PTA donations, or selling school products like t-shirts, hoodies, marathons, sponsorships by local vendors, and other PTA events. I thought that was kinda neat!

Teachers that are…read moreclueless of their own content, mostly women trying to protect each other by lying and making things up. Admin that couldn't care less about the students and try to catch teachers. All the reviews that are positive are either current employees or previous (how sad). A headmaster that relies on words rather than evidence while always staying in her office. Teachers that target students as well as telling their AT's to do the same. Lots of racism. Teachers can't do anything but use AI but even then aren't checking what they're giving out. And if you're a guy you won't last at all. Just watched two leave and one left before Christmas last year. They're all jumping ship. Students just placed into hallways and missing out on learning. BY FAR THE DIRTIEST, SMELLIEST, and most DISGUSTING classrooms. Mold everywhere because the humidity was 70% or higher all year long. No wonder so many people got sick. Incompetent maintenance worker who thinks vacuuming the mold from one spot is enough (it's all in the vents). The excuses just keep coming for us parents all the time instead of them even acknowledging that. My kid was non stop targeted by racist classmates and three teachers who did nothing. Looking into making a case to open a TEA investigation but the only one who had all the screenshots, recordings of teachers, and all that apparently left so if you're reading this please get in touch and we can save the future of these kids. Other parents seem to buy the admin since they shared the list of donations (accident maybe?) but somehow their kid is failing multiple subjects but get passed to the next grade. How can a worker not be appalled at everything? And the smell, it's terrible and everywhere. You can see how the classroom floors are littered with food stomped onto the carpets, gum, spill after spill. I will say again. This school needs to be investigated asap. Also, not sure how they can call themselves classical education. They aren't. Just because they have Latin doesn't mean it's classical. Where are my kids notes Cornell style? Why don't they know anything about Ancient Greece and Rome? Are they still using Singapore math? And the 10 year old version? Yes. Also, teachers will never allow a student to get ahead. They will keep every student at the same pace, inhibiting the higher learners and keeping them from being their unique selves. I guess you could say it's a type of brainwashing. Please, to the gentleman that knew pretty much everything, please get in touch.

I have two daughters that currently attend - 2 y/o and 9 m/o. All the teachers are extremely kind…read moreand I love that all the teachers know both of my girls' names. I will say, I have had to bring certain things to admin's attention like needing more frequent diaper changes to prevent diaper rash and although I wasn't pleased I had to say this I was extremely happy to see that my complaint and solutions were accepted with smiles and the situation was resolved quickly and I haven't had issues since. I can say Admin and teachers truly want your baby to be happy here and are willing to not only listen to your concerns and feedback but take action to correct things on their end. And yes, I'm a helicopter mom and it's very obvious and they don't judge (at least not to my face lol)

As a new parent having a COVID baby, I thought putting my little one in daycare would be beneficial…read morefor everyone. Hindsight is 20/20 and I wish I could take back all the time, patience and effort I put in to try and make it a good experience for her. This place not only has high turnover, high student to teacher ratio, it seems like it also sells you this false belief of superior education from the Montessori brand. So maybe you think that justifies a large monthly fee (nevermind their holidays and staff days), and well it's the best of the best it must be worth it. Wrong. Surely the staff must go through more than your typical cpr/first aid 24 hour training? No. Nothing special here. It's all branding. I tried being patient and understanding, but ultimately my reasons for pulling my child was her safety and well being. They don't have their furniture anchored on walls and so they have bookshelves in the middle of class. Well, you probably assumed some kid got hurt. Yep. Another kiddo pushed the bookcase on to my child, falling over on her fingers. Even after that they didn't want to prevent that from happening again because they technically didn't have to, is what they said, but it wasn't enough seeing a kid actually get hurt to make them think otherwise. I had to really complain to make them do something. Another incident was a child attacking my child outside and not responding to teachers telling them to stop. Did my kid's teacher see this incident? No. Another teacher did. They had the parents pick that kid up. Another time, I go to pick up my kid and once I buckle her in the car I notice she had a busted lip, and they didn't have me sign the usual incident report. Teacher didn't see it or even notice it. (You'll see this as a pattern.). The culmination was the same kid attacking my kid again, this time on her face, and did her teacher see it? No. Another teacher did. Let me mention that this incident would not have happened had they followed their own policy, (which is not having more than one classroom outside at a time) and had competent staff (there were 4 kids to 2 teachers in her class that day and it took a teacher from a different class to see it and stop it.) They had the parents come and cut the other kids nails but didn't separate them from my kid. All this goes without mentioning my kid constantly being sick and them doing a poor job cleaning and changing her diaper. I had spoken to the director and staff about my daughter's health condition, which requires frequent diaper changes or she is at risk of an infection that can affect her kidneys. One time I pick her up and she has a diaper full of poop. I complain. Within the same week, after picking her up, I get home to change her and notice particles of poop because they didn't clean her well. I send an email to all involved about it, but then my daughter had to be hospitalized because, you guessed it, she got an infection. Maybe you can take this knowledge and go to a daycare that's more affordable and will probably give you the same experience. At least your wallet will thank you. All I can say is now my daughter is thriving at home because she isn't getting hurt or sick. She is developing better because I actually interact with her, unlike a time when I saw on camera her teacher completely ignore her when an activity was set up, and no effort was made to bring my daughter over to learn. Do yourself, your sanity, and your wallet a favor and don't go here. Don't buy into all the influencer romanticizing Montessori aesthetics. All they do is say their script,"oh we apologize...we understand...", but there is no change. There is no striving to be better, to stay on the ball. Their words are empty of proactive action, or any action at all. The previous posts and pictures are dated, and those people aren't there anymore. So anything that was said before being nice is no longer applicable.

San Antonio Christian Schools (SACS) was once a wonderful school, but sadly, that is no longer the…read morecase. As a parent who invested more than 10 years with multiple children at SACS, I cannot recommend the school today primarily for three reasons. First, tuition has increased significantly in recent years, yet the quality of education has not kept pace. While there are still pockets of excellent teachers who truly love their students and inspire them, these are the exception rather than the rule. For the tuition and additional fees being charged, the academics and overall experience simply do not measure up. Second, the administration is inconsistent, plays favorites and encourages gender discrimination. Certain families and students receive preferential treatment, while others are held to a different standard. Additionally, certain events are marketed based on gender, intentionally excluding the opposite gender. Instead of upholding fairness, the administration regularly chooses self preservation, politics and favoritism. Third, SACS does not partner with parents. Although the school claims it values collaboration, the reality is when parents raise legitimate concerns or attempt to hold leadership accountable, they are quickly silenced. There has been incidents of misconduct by staff towards students as well as sexual harassment claims against a high level administrative staff member, and in all circumstances, claims have been swept under the rug. Staff members that challenge decisions are fired. Families who question decisions or speak out are often placed on a "blacklist". Families, including those with children in good academic and behavioral standing, are prevented from re-enrolling or denied readmission. The message is clear: conform and be silent or get out. In short, SACS today reflects hypocrisy rather than true Christian values. The school promotes itself as providing a faith-based, high-quality education, but the reality is very different. Tuition is too high for what families actually receive, the environment is political and unfair, and the administration does not respect parents as partners in their children's education. If you are considering enrolling your child at SACS, my advice is to look elsewhere. Save your money for a school that offers genuine Christian values, quality academics, integrity, and displays respect for both students and their families.

BFCS Website Information:…read more The school is part of an interdenominational complex established by the Buckner Fanning Evangelistic Foundation in 1998. Located on several beautiful acres of hill country property near the intersection of Stone Oak Parkway and Evans Road, we provide a safe, orderly and encouraging school atmosphere for students in grades Pre-K through 8th. While helping our students acquire a sense of personal dignity and responsibility, we recognize that genuine positive self-esteem rises through self-respect as result of hard work, accomplishments, correct behavior, respect for others, and sincere loving encouragement from the faculty and staff. We recognize that children are unique individuals each with his or her own special God given gifts and talents. Buckner Fanning Christian School is rooted in the unconditional love and grace of God. We teach all subjects in the curriculum as part of an integrated whole with the scriptures at the center. The school strives to provide a clear model of Biblical Christian living through the staff and board. The school is committed to the principles of the Christian faith, while secondary doctrinal issues are referred to the parents. This interdenominational school embraces students from a variety of faiths. All students will study beliefs, and practices through their prayer, Bible study and daily Chapel. Students will have support, through the gentle and nurturing example of our teachers and staff to grow closer to God through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. An official Core Knowledge school accredited by SACS/CASI

I wanted to take a moment to share an updated perspective on Great Hearts Live Oak. Over time, I've…read morecome to appreciate just how dedicated the staff is. They continue to be supportive, professional, and always willing to communicate with parents. Whether it's through phone calls, emails, or text messages, they make an effort to keep families informed, which is something I really value. The curriculum remains challenging and encourages students to think critically. While there are still some concerns about the lack of specific cultural observances, I do see that the school focuses on deeper discussions about historical events rather than just surface-level recognition. I can respect that approach, even if it's different from what some might expect. One issue that still comes up a lot is the car line. The construction in the area has settled down a bit, but now there's a new challenge--sharing the road with other businesses. It definitely adds another layer of congestion, but I think it's important to acknowledge that a lot of the frustration comes from how we, as parents, handle the process. There are still too many instances of people not paying attention, blocking driveways, or leaving huge gaps in the line, which just makes things worse. If everyone followed the guidelines, it would probably run a lot smoother. The school is still a charter, which means funding is always a challenge. It runs largely on donations and tuition, but not every family contributes equally, which puts extra strain on resources. At the same time, the staff is stretched thin, and I know that makes classroom management tough. It's understandable that some behavior issues might be handled more strictly just because teachers have so much on their plates. One thing I've been thinking about lately is how easy it is for us as parents to rate and critique a school, but I wonder how the school would rate us. A child's education isn't a one-way street where only the school has to be accountable--parents play just as big of a role in making sure their child succeeds. Whether it's supporting teachers, reinforcing expectations at home, or just being mindful of how we contribute to the school community, it's something to consider. Overall, my experience with Great Hearts Live Oak has been positive, even with the challenges. No school is perfect, but I do see the effort they put in, and that matters. I just hope that as a community, we can all recognize that education is a shared responsibility, not just something for the school to carry on its own.

She came up with a solution (after 2 days) that relieved my son's severe anxiety stemming from a trauma that he suffered two months prior, that we had been trying to work through with him since it occurred. This alone has helped our family more than words can say. She has many years of experience teaching young children and is patient enough to figure out what works for our child. Our family is blessed to have her teaching our child. The Owner: Ms. Betty Williams is wonderful. She is extremely knowledgable and is more than willing (happy) to share her knowledge with parents. On several occasions, Ms. Betty has sat patiently with me, with a caring heart, and given me so much amazing parenting advice. I cannot thank her enough for not being rude or judgmental when I came to her for advice. The front office staff: Ms. Natalie & Ms. Alicia are always genuinely friendly and kind any time I speak with them. They both have been very accommodating when I have needed anything. They both truly LOVE the children. Everyone at SACDM does. The staff at this school works as a team. They are a humble group of people whose true passion is the children. They are down to earth and make parents feel comfortable. They all work very diligently in figuring out what works best for each child.
