After a difficult experience in public school, we were heartbroken seeing her not get the attention and support she needed. Everything changed when Mrs. Kellam invited us to have her try a day--and from that moment on, we never looked back. The teachers truly care and make every child feel seen and supported. The communication is strong, the environment is nurturing, and the focus on both academics and character really stands out. Our daughter is now confident, happy, and thriving--and we are so grateful we found this school.

Teachers are invested and passionate. There are hardly any fights. As far as smoking and vaping... well, someone can always hide and do these things, but when discovered by the administration, there is a zero-tolerance policy. Highly recommended.

Their communication is good and keep us up to date at the end of class. 10/10 recommend!

This review is for the school garden. The Prisk Native Garden is like one of those secret treasures…read morethat you'll either know about because you're from the area and love plants or you'll stumble on it like I did because I know someone who volunteers here. The garden is only open to the public 2 Sundays in April. It's easy to access with street parking. I came on the second Sunday and it was gorgeous out. The garden is not huge, but it's a pretty sizable space that you can walk around with seating. I didn't know what to expect, but there were so many surprises! Major kudos to the caretakers of the space- you can tell it was made lovingly and took a lot of time and effort to convert this part of the school parking lot into the garden that it is today. There's a pond with little fish where plants also grow, there's a huge saguaro cactus that I wasn't expecting to see, and even an oak tree that was donated from the Channel Islands. I can't help but feel how lucky the students that go to this school are to have a garden where can learn directly about ecosystems and plants and flowers, all literally within their backyard. There are so many beautiful flowers in bloom, and the different types of sage and other indigenous plants were abundant. If these types of gardens are your thing, definitely make a note to check it out in April!

My son gets upset when I don't take him LOL My son has been here for almost a yr and he can write his name, knows the weeks, months, numbers past 30, so many more things. This amazed me because yrs ago my daughter was in a private Montessori preschool and did not learn all this. I feel this preschool is much more structured. The teacher-student ratio also seems lower. The staff is very friendly and they also have so many activities through the year for the kids. I would def recommend this school
