They are so trust worthy and loving to my children. When they are at daycare I know they are being taken care of and loved the way they should. My oldest started when she was just 2 and went all the way through vpk. My middle child is currently on the same path. My youngest started at few months shy of 1 years old. This has been the best experience as being a parent and trusting someone to watch your child isn't always the easiest. They also offer an open door policy which I love. A week before thanksgiving they do a eat in day where you get to come in and eat "thanksgiving" with your child in class. They had fun music and fun staff again they make you feel like family when there. 10/10 recommend.

The school is Christian centered, so if that's not your thing, conduct yourself accordingly. The staff is mostly Latino, so your child will be receiving an English speaking education, with some Spanish influence. I have absolutely nothing negative to say about this institution. They truly care about your child, and the staff is amazingly attentive to their education. I am truly pleased with the progress that my child has made in the years that she has been here. The staff is very responsive to questions and does their best to include everyone. The school is a very diverse collective of staff and students, and they encourage learning about different cultures and events. My biggest concern is my child being safe; no problem there. The staff is attentive and make sure that the children are given everything they need. I'm a little apprehensive that this is my daughter's last year here. I hope that her next institution is half as good as Meadows!

Let me know when there were better payment options for us when we struggled without making a big deal about it. They do some of the cutest and exciting class/school activities and are always sure to involve us when they can. Love that there is a chapel every week! Miss Meaghan is AWESOME! She has taught my girl so many new things and I can tell how much love she has for not only my child, but everyone in the class! Thanks for taking care of my girl!

My daughter has been at Aloma since she was 18 months old. This is her final year at this school…read moreand I can honestly say that we are going to miss it for many reasons. First of all, it doesn't break your budget. So many daycares force you to pay for 5 days and all summer to hold your child's spot, but Aloma does not. They charge for the days that you attend. It was the most reasonable for our budget. Second, the staff turnover rate is nonexistent. Some of their teachers have been there for over 10+ years. That says a lot to me as a teacher that you have all of these great teachers willing to stay at the school and not move on to "greener pastures". Third, the teachers are amazing. My daughter has learned a tremendous about from all of them. We are constantly learning new things here like sign language from Miss Savannah or games from Ms. Jody. The teachers care about the kids well being and their academic growth. Finally I'd like to say that the office staff also cares about the kids. My daughter knows all of the them and feels comfortable and safe when she is there. Seriously as a parent, safety, loving, and a great learning experience what more can you ask for. We are truly going to miss this school and the people. They have become family to us and we would highly recommend this school. Go in, talk to the people, talk to the parents, see how the kids are treated. I promise you that you won't regret the trip or enrollment.

My son attended this school from his infancy through age 2. At first, we really loved the staff and…read morethe care they provided for my child. Once he moved from the infant side to the toddler side, though, we started to have problems. My son would come home from this school with mysterious bruises and scratches and we were always told that it was from rough-housing with another kid. Then we saw that one of the teachers from this school was arrested for child abuse while at this facility and we immediately pulled our son out. Turns out that all of the marks on him were given to him by a teacher and not another student. I didn't blame Park Avenue for this at first as there will always be bad apples that slip through any screening process, but they refused to accept responsibility and even allegedly physically threatened another parent who complained of this issue. Also, don't forget that this institution is owned by Tim Davis, the former Orlando Police officer who shot and killed his own son. Every time I drive by this place, I hope to see it closed but that has yet to happen. NEVER take your child here.

StarChild Academy Winter Garden (SCAWG) is a great option for preschool; however, I strongly…read morecaution against enrolling your child in the elementary school. The overall positives of the school are cultural diversity among the staff and student body, a family feel, and friendly, caring faculty and staff, as well as building updates on the preschool side. Preschool Pros: curriculum Preschool Cons: Teacher retention; on average, children go through at least 2 lead teachers a year, and it's a revolving door for assistants. When our children were attending SCAWG, it was advertised as an advanced curriculum school; it's not. We withdrew our youngest child first because it's easiest to succeed in surrounding charter schools' lotteries when entering kindergarten. Youngest attended from age 2.5 - 5 (VPK). Youngest is testing above grade level in ELA (was even promoted to grade 1 phonics class at new school) on Florida's statewide standardized assessments (F.A.S.T); however, Math results were below grade level. Elementary School Pros: N/A Elementary School Cons: no technology in classrooms, teacher retention, no behavioral specialist, inadequate disciplinary action, unrealistic amount of at-home supplementing, ineffective curriculum, no positive reinforcements for academic achievement, no standardized test prep, combined 4th and 5th grade class Oldest attended from age 3-9 (grade 3.5; we withdrew after mid-year). For context, in kindergarten, first, and second grade, the oldest had all A's with 1 B for the whole school year. Q1 of third grade all A's, one B, Q2 of third grade all A's, one B. Oldest tested at grade level in ELA on F.A.S.T and below grade level in Math. At SCAWG, they introduce concepts and move on quickly without allowing the child adequate time to practice or retain what they've learned. While every institution has its pros and cons, we're most disappointed by what we now realize is a horrible curriculum and questionable teaching styles. There are better elementary school options in the area than SCAWG, and I urge you to exhaust them. SCAWG Elementary turned out to be a colossal waste of money for us - it shouldn't have to be for you, too.

The center has a more home-like atmosphere vs. hospital-like atmosphere. It is still very clean and it was re-modeled in the summer. The playground is the best I have ever seen, very large, and diverse and it is completely shaded by mature oak trees. The lunches are actually healthy like spaghetti and meat sauce, roast chicken, rice and beans. Every now and then they do either hot dog or hamburger. No fried foods are served which is a real plus! My sons love the food. They have lots of cool toys, music, and activities. My son made a fish on a string and pole (stick) that was so cute. It is very affordable and vacation weeks are only $20 reservation fees vs. half of the normal weekly tuition. Kids and Co is open until 7pm for late workers! The Director is fantastic and extremely personable. Very easy to talk to if your child has any special needs. I deducted half a star because not all of the teachers speak a lot of English. Note that the teachers for 2 yrs olds and up + the Director speak perfect English so not a big deal to me (just a couple folks out of the 10 on staff). Also note, that the children are shown G rated movies on a TV between 6pm and 7pm (I have no issue with this, but I know some parents are sticklers on TV). The kids are also typically given an extra snack between when the teachers are cleaning up. Hope this helps!
