My original review was from 2/29/2020 while my daughter was going to this school. The parent board…read moreat that time was wonderful. At the time, I felt shocked that a Co-Op could work so well with parents "running" the organization. Apparently, my feelings were justified because I recently found out that the current parent board let go of the teacher who throughout my (now 4) years of knowing her has always had the kids' best interests at heart and is a sweet and caring person. We continued to donate toys and books to the classroom because she was always looking to improve the things they had to play with and read. I can no longer endorse this school or the board that runs it. I do NOT take reviewing lightly as I know there can be some grumpy people out there who just love to complain so this is NOT one of those situations. The current 2023-2024 parent board does not align with my idea of child friendly/parent friendly/moral compass pre-school. I want to be clear that I have no kids at this school anymore, but the response from parents whose kids were recently in this teacher's attendance is just as shocked and disgusted by this decision as I am. No one seems to understand the reason behind this action (including the teacher), which is disturbing to me as a parent. If you are reading this review past the 2024 school year, you might just want to do your due diligence on checking who the teacher is running the classes and be sure there are early education certificates held by those individuals. Make sure you meet the current parent board before signing up and sending your kids here. Ensure you are comfortable with where they see the school going throughout the year as well as their protocol for notifying parents when large decisions are made. Make sure you meet the teacher as well and ask about credentials! Previous Review from 2/29/2020: This has been the 1st year for us at APCP and it has far surpassed our expectations as a pre-school. My husband and I weren't sure what to expect with a Co-Op. How can a revolving door of parents "run" a school with consistency and clear organization? The answer is VERY WELL! We have been continuously surprised at how informed we stay and how involved we are allowed to be. This school is very professionally run and the new teacher (Miss Allison) is such a sweet and caring person. Kids can have good and bad days and I've seen her manage the room with incredible success and patience. And we love that you can be involved by having your time in the room as a working parent.

We love APCP. This is going to be our 4th year with this preschool. I love the close community feel.read more

My wife and I have sent our children - currently ages 4-and-a-half and 6 months - to School Bell…read moretwo days/week since they've been alive. About six child care centers exist within a 5-mile radius of my home, so the initial choice of School Bell was made after a fair amount of research and visits. I'll talk about the positives in a moment, but it's first worth noting why we're leaving. Due to various staff changes/leadership morale, the PreK program has, to my eyes, become little more than a glorified babysitting service over the last year. My older child, to me, is smart and articulate and can do puzzles like a champ, so I like to believe the two days/week he spent here in his very formidable years were good for him, but now that he's at the point where reading, writing, and the things you need to have at least a passive understanding of to succeed in kindergarten are important to me, I'm not seeing any of these things happening in School Bell's programs. There's no curriculum to speak of, there's no communication from the staff about what my child is learning, and there are no goals/expectations/milestones for him. In fairness, lots of education could be happening, but if it is, I'm not being told of it; what I do see is my child, when he arrives in the room in the morning, scurrying to the child allowed to have a tablet in school to wait his turn to play Angry Birds. This is not what I pay for. That's the big reason...the apparent lack of learning that has taken over the PreK room...but there are other small things: - On the occasions when signs are posted, it's not uncommon for them to have spelling or grammatical errors. Not that the kids can read them, but it doesn't inspire confidence in me when a center's leader cannot correctly spell "mismatch." - This is a first-world problem, but you can't pay by credit card. I get that the center doesn't want to pay processing fees, but as someone who really enjoys the benefits of credit card points, I'd really like to pay for the biggest expense in my life with a credit card. - My child absolutely loves Water Day, but it's only on Fridays this summer. He doesn't go on Fridays; would it be tough to switch up Water Day once in awhile so he can enjoy it as well? Now, all of that said, there are a lot of good things about this place; in no particular order: 1. It's clean. It's bright. 2. Nearly every teacher in the Infant, Toddler, and Preschool rooms I met there truly cared about the kids (or if they didn't, they weren't there long). Gone are luminaries such as Danielle and Georgia and Anne and a litany of others (as you likely know, the turnover rate in this industry is very high), but as of this writing, Denise and Allyson and Stephanie and Carly are there, among others, and they will take excellent care of your children. My kids have never been hurt, sunburnt, underfed, or suffered any neglect or pain (with the of-course exception of a fall of two on the playground) at this center, and for that, I am very grateful to the staff. 3. The price. The price fluctuates depending on how many days you enroll you child(ren), but in an industry with razor-thin margins, School Bell was reasonably priced, and the inclusion of snacks and lunch often made it seem like a bargain. For the older child, the price came out to about $5.90/hour, which, when you consider the work the women here do, is an excellent value. 4. Lunch is provided. Snacks, too. Not making lunches is a benefit I have learned to appreciate. In sum, if you're looking for a solid childcare center, this one is indeed solid. I wish we weren't taking the kids out, but the lack of a good PreK curriculum has forced our hand. Hope this helps anyone looking for a place to give care to your kids.

After checking out multiple preschool options we came across SALT and are so glad we did. Our experience there was fantastic! The teachers are caring and genuinely loving. They were actively engaged with my son, teaching academics, social skills, and daily arts and crafts just to name a few. Communication was fantastic and we always knew what was going on with regular updates on Remind and monthly newsletters. At the end of the year, we received a packet of materials for continued learning over the summer, as well as his journal from the year, full of wonderful, thoughtful feedback and documentation. Mrs. Stacy and her staff really went above and beyond! Our only regret was not signing him up sooner. Thank you for everything!
