The kids would be fully engaged in science projects, puzzles, creating art projects and even watching their own caterpillars metamorphosize into butterflies. The kids were always engaged and challenged in new experiences. We and our son truly enjoyed the time he spent at Prodigy Learning Center. Thanks Marsea and Ruth

This school is focused so solely on high achievement that they will do everything possible to push out children who do not perform. My daughter went here with minimal issue, other than adjusting to the old school dictation-style teaching and an isolated situation where a stessed teacher used questionable methods to discipline the entire class for being disruptive. My son has ADHD and was put into detentions and in-school suspension over the allowable number of times per year by state law while he was in grades K-4. He was excluded from activities and field trips, put last in his kindergarten graduation despite it being alphabetical (his name should've been read 3rd - he was th only child not listed in order) and I was constantly told how I should consider medication (again - at 5 years old). They were oblivious to handling a 504 plan. My son was so deflated by his first 5 years of school that he dreaded every day. I have spoken with numerous parents who went through similar situations at this school. The goal is obviously to overwhelm the student and their parents into removal so they don't have to deal with the situation. My son is thriving now in the great public schools in NE Mesa, but still looks back on his time at SDA with trauma. On the positive side, telling his painful experience at SDA did help with legislation to prevent schools from issuing unnecessary suspension to elementary age children. This school may be wonderful for some children, but they do not "give unconditional love" for children with ADHD. If your child is trying to find their way through this complicated journey, this is NOT the school for you.

My son attended the school about six years ago. He started in preschool for two years. We had great…read moreexperiences and then he moved into kindergarten. He was continuously being punished by his teacher for being "fidgety". She would not allow him to play at recess time. She told me he was fidgeting with his pencil and tapping on the desk and distracting other kids and for that she had A five year old miss out on several recesses. He then began crying every day, saying that he hated school and didn't want to go. This is not how a five year old should feel about school. He was very excited to begin school before he was in her class. Every other day she had some complaint about my son. I felt like she was picking on him and punishing him by taking away play time. I really have no reason why she was doing to my child. I'm sure he's not the first five year old to be fidgety and to punish him by not allowing him to get some physical movement and activity seems counterproductive. We never had we had this issue in his preschool at this exact same school for the two years prior, when they were accepting my payments. My son is a very happy kid, very sweet demeanor. Would never disrespect anyone on purpose. Can we have a teacher that knows how to deal with a fidgety five-year-old? First, I asked to meet with the teacher, And the administration said that's not an option. So I wrote her a letter using professional language to advocate for my child about my concerns and I attached research articles about methods of teaching children with ADD. She was extremely offended. I've then asked to meet with administration, and they offered no interest in solutions for ways of helping us plan a more positive learning environment. They were completely on the defense about the kindergarten teacher. I hated to even leave my son in that school for one semester. As soon as I found a suitable replacement, we removed him from the school immediately. He had a very positive experience at his new kindergarten. The educational team told me our son was doing well and he was a kindergartner, and still learning how to adjust to school environment. He is now a healthy and happy kid. Maybe other peoples experiences are different. It broke my heart that my son had a negative experience at such a young age. He has never had an experience like this since then. I do not think SDA cares about children outside of the academic environment. Children are a little human beings and a teacher's actions can scar them emotionally for life. Best decision I ever made was to remove him.

From the friendly front desk staff to every teacher and staff member, it's clear that they're dedicated to creating a warm, nurturing environment. One of the things I appreciate most is how much the school emphasizes both kindness and education. They have events nearly every week that bring families together and build a strong sense of community. My daughter has flourished here--she's become a confident reader and has learned so much during her time in kindergarten. She's now fully prepared and excited to start 1st grade! I believe education and morals start at home, but having a school that reinforces those values is such a gift. Communication is top-notch--they use an app to keep parents informed, whether it's updates on classroom activities or even small incidents like a fall on the playground. I always feel in the loop and confident that my daughter is in great hands. We feel safe and secure every day she's there, and I'm excited to say that my son will be starting preschool at Montessori Education Center next year.
