In response to Haylee B's post. As a current parent at…read moreSpring Valley Academy, I feel it's important to offer a more balanced perspective in response to this review. First, this is a private Christian school, and families who enroll here do so with the understanding that the school operates with specific values, expectations, and standards. That includes dress guidelines and behavioral expectations that are clearly communicated to parents and students. Regarding dress code concerns, the policies are intended to promote modesty, consistency, and a focused learning environment--not to single out or target students. Dress expectations are common in private and faith-based schools and are part of the structure many families specifically seek out. On safety and administration: in my experience, the school takes student well-being seriously. It's also important to recognize that disciplinary matters are often handled privately, so one account may not reflect the full context or any actions taken behind the scenes. As for facilities, the claim that the school is in poor condition does not align with what many families see. The high school wing was recently built, and the campus continues to be maintained to support students' academic and extracurricular needs.

I can't say enough about this school! I shopped all over the area for a preschool for my son. I…read morefinally realized there was no way I would be able to pay for private preschool and enrolled him at Clark. And honestly, I was really sad about it. But I couldn't be happier! His teacher is amazing but I've met a lot of teachers over the year and they are ALL wonderful. The aides are fun and friendly with the kids, but also know how to lay down the law when necessary. All the aides know all the kids in all the classes, not just their own. They also go out of their way to say hi to me and my other son when we're there for drop off or pick up. We've had interactions with the school nurse and she is caring and amazing as well. My only complaints are: the office staff can be rude and lax at times. I've sat for LONG stretches with a toddler in tow just waiting for someone to acknowledge me. But having said that, they get things done when necessary. I've never had any issues with any administrative business. This is not a "pull up and drop off" set up. I don't know how most preschools work but you have to get out and walk your child into the classroom, which can be inconvenient with other children. Full day is only offered if your child will be entering kindergarten the following year. If your child is 3 s/he MUST be half day. There is no transportation provided unless your child has an IEP. This is really inconvenient for a lot of parents I've talked to and keeps a lot of kids from being able to attend. (And especially in my case, since one of the buses goes down our street and I literally follow it to the school every day.) Clark merges special needs students with mainstream students so every classroom is inclusive. My son's class has children from 3-5 who are all over the learning spectrum, as well as some ESL students. There are some physically disabled children in other classes as well. But I love that the kids all learn together and learn to help and accept each other. I'm so glad I "settled" on Clark. It turned out to be the greatest decision I could've made for him at this stage.

Two of my kiddos have been going to TC Naz (Tipp City Pre-School Learning Center) for over a year…read more They both enjoy their time at TC Naz, have made friends and have been well cared for by the staff. In my opinion, TC Naz is not the most education forward or highly-organized facility, but I can say the care for the kids comes first. They have taken good care of my kids and provided them a clean, supervised place to learn, play and grow. The current staff has shown nothing but love and kindness to my entire family.

Our experience started off great, as they seemed kind and flexible and the center is attractive and…read morespacious and in a church. It turned into the worst experience we have ever had with childcare. Starting with most of the staff. When I dropped off my infant son in the mornings, most of the time the main teacher kept her back to me, did not greet me or my son. Not a nice way for my baby to start his day! She is anything but maternal and friendly, as an infant teacher should be. As a whole, they are very understaffed and I could sense the stress it caused and saw it in the lack of good care my children were getting. I had both of my kids enrolled there and they rarely brought home artwork. The "preschool" is really more of a babysitting gig. Except for a couple of very good teachers there, most of them just sit around, not interacting with the kids, not seeming to like their jobs, disengaged and not trying to get to know the children or entertain them. The WORST part of the whole experience was the fact that my three year old daughter was physically bullied by a five year old girl in her class. Yes, they have a five year old in class with three year olds. There were three instances of physical attacks on my daughter. The school did not take it seriously or do what they said they would do to protect my daughter. We met with the Preschool Committee because the Director was especially useless and truly only defended the bully. And not only that but the teachers and the Director Jim also started to retaliate against my three year old! Writing up notes about if she took a toy from another child, or raised her voice! When I never even received a documented note about the time the five year old bully bent my daughter's finger back so far that it caused her pain, and it was intentional! I was shocked. But I was even more shocked when during the meeting with the Preschool Committee, one of the "christian" gentleman on the committee who was seated directly across the table from me lost his temper and stood up quickly, leaned as close as he could get to me, slammed his hand down on the table SO loud, and shouted at me. I was horrified and scared for my own safety. The Director was seated right there and I immediately asked if that behavior is acceptable and he just shrugged. I pressed him for an answer and he only said "I can't speak for him." These are supposed to be Christians. These are the members of the Preschool Committee! I could go on and on but I will stop there. Avoid this center at all costs. They are cheap, and it's for a reason. Crap care for your kids. Pay more and send your kids to a center when they will actually be nurtured, learn, and be kept safe. My children did not receive that level of care here at Tipp City Church of the Nazarene Preschool. I have careful documentation of all my allegations here to back up each claim. This all happened about a month ago, so I have had time to cool down from being angry and this review is written solely out of my concern to prevent other children and families from ending up in a nightmare like what we experienced.
