Royal Point Academy - The GroupMe conversation with the Principal and daughter of the pastor Kristan Olivares

I've hesitated to write this review for some time, but after seeing recent allegations against the…read moreschool, I feel it is important to share my experience. While our first year was smooth, the second year revealed systemic issues in how the school is managed and how they are dismissive serious student concerns. There were 4 primary areas of concern that led to me pulling my child from this school- Inappropriate Spiritual Guidance: My child was told by the Pastor's wife that if he wasn't a "good kid," his heart would become "dirty" and he would die. Using fear and mortality as a disciplinary tool for a young child is spiritually and emotionally damaging. Academic Management: Despite a very small class size of only six students, a significant amount of classwork was consistently sent home for me to supervise and correct. I was told this was to prevent him from losing recess which i didn't agree with at all , but with a 6:1 student to teacher ratio, I expected the educator to be able to manage individual student progress and corrections during school hours. Response to Bias : One of the most upsetting incidents involved a student telling my son to "go back to his country." When I requested a meeting to discuss how the school promotes an inclusive environment, the response from leadership was dismissive. Instead of addressing the harm caused, the Principal stated they "don't talk about race" and her dad/ the Pastor of the church on campus proceeded to share a tone-deaf anecdote about owning an "Aunt Jemima" cookie jar and not understanding why a visitor found it offensive. Lastly, My child was not served lunch one day and went the entire day with only a snack. When questioned, the teacher blamed my son for "not speaking up." He later told me he was too embarrassed to ask because the teacher had been threatening the class all week that they "wouldn't get pizza" if they didn't behave. Using food as a bargaining chip or threat is cruel. Lack of Accountability: When I informed the Principal we were leaving, there was no concern for my childs well-being or the reasons for our departure. The immediate response was that "per the handbook, tuition is still due for two months." It became clear that the administration and faculty --which is heavily insulated by family ties--is not at all equipped to handle modern social dynamics or provide a supportive, inclusive atmosphere. Issues are swept under the rug rather than addressed with the transparency and growth one would expect from an educational institution.

This school pours love into their students and treats my kids like one of their own. The lessons…read morethey instill in our kids complement what we teach at home. RPA is like homeschooling on steroids. The kids get a concentrated education, learn more than they ever would in public school and are free from distractions and bad behavior. One of the reasons we didn't want our kids going to public school is the lack of parental accountability for children's discipline and behavior. I love that RPA recognizes kids have bad days but does not tolerate ongoing discipline issues that distract from the classroom and influence other kids to behave the same way. The parents have built a unique community and often spend time together on the playground after school while the kids play. It is Little House on the Prarie meets modern-day San Antonio.

My son has been attending the Ray Ellison child care center two times a week while I attend school…read more He started this fall semester in August. We were put on a waiting list in May to make sure he had a spot. At first, he had a really hard time adjusting to the new schedule. The staff there was helpful but not quick to over analyze the situation. They knew eventually, he would get used to it. He really has liked going the past couple of weeks. I love that they have a sand box and a puppet theater for the kids to play in. I also like that they take them on walks to different parts of the PAC campus. It is inexpensive compared to most day-cares I looked at. The only issue I have is that I still have to pay when school is shut down and the lunch menu changes on a whim. Those two things are very important to me.

I took my math courses at Palo Alto last Fall and Spring 2015, which during that time I had the…read moreopportunity to speak to the front desk staff as well as the director. The atmosphere was very friendly, but professional at the same time. I didn't get the opportunity to tour the place because it was during my lunch break & between classes when I dropped by to inquire. The kiddos of course are taking a nap- which I knew so I didn't bother asking for a tour. I just also wanted to know more about their services and to see how the staff are with providing answers with all my questions. The front desk staff were very customer service oriented and the director was more than happy to assist me with everything I needed. Ms. Alice Regala was very thorough and very pleasant to talked with and surely made me feel at ease to ask questions regarding how they provide child care. I came in there with so many questions in mind and I came out with more than I needed to know regarding childcare they provide. I will feel confident to put and register my child in this facility with such customer friendly and well informed staff- hoping that they will have a spot open when my husband and I decide to enroll our child.
