Our family was defrauded by Cedar Hill Prep…read more We were promised small class sizes and first-class facilities. When our child started school, it was apparent that they had repurposed an old storage room, and that the student:teacher ratio was far worse than advertised. When we complained about the state of the classroom, rather than do the right thing and hire additional staff, the school administration expelled our child from the school on zero days' notice, despite having no documented behavioral or academic issues of any kind. During the expulsion meeting, the administration admitted to being unable to hire additional staff and _intentionally_ overbooking the class sizes during registration. The founder of this school is obsessed with metrics. If your child represents a threat to one of those metrics (be it student-teacher ratio, standardized test scores, etc.) then they will absolutely throw your child under the bus to make the school look better. Be warned.

I am extremely disappointed in how my son was treated at this school. From the beginning, he was…read morerepeatedly blamed for hitting, as if he were the only 4-5-year-old engaging in behavior that is developmentally normal for children that age. My son was honest with me--he admitted when he hit, but he also told me that other children hit him as well. The school only seemed to care when he reacted, never when he was on the receiving end. Rather than working with us to support growth, accountability, and improvement, the school chose to focus solely on my son's weaknesses while ignoring his strengths and progress. Children are still learning emotional regulation at this age. What they need is guidance and fairness, not labeling. One of the most troubling moments was when another parent contacted the principal to say they did not want their child playing with my son and the school allowed this behavior instead of shutting it down. That sent a very clear message about whose comfort mattered. As a veteran who served this country honorably, it was extremely frustrating and painful to watch my child be treated unfairly in an environment that claims to uphold values of compassion and morality. My son is not perfect, but he improved significantly and yet it felt like decisions were being made out of spite rather than care. It is also impossible to ignore that my son is Black in a predominantly white school. The picture that was painted of him by staff was far more extreme than the child I know at home, and that raises serious concerns for me as a parent. I regret ever placing my son in this environment and have since apologized to him for believing this school would be a safe and nurturing space. I would not recommend this school to families looking for fairness, understanding, or true support for young children.

Although some have a wonderful experience at Fontebonne Hall Academy, mine was quite the opposite…read more The school recently went through a change of administration and staff. The year my daughter started there 11 teachers left the school. I believe the school is still trying to acclimate to the new principles methods of teaching. The new methods in which administration use included creating a new category of science called PPEAPS. This category of science was an absolute waste of my child's education. Not only was is it a made up category of science that has no proven method or lesson plan, in which to teach, it is not recognized by the NYC Board of Education. My daughter transferred out of Fontbonne Hall Academy without a science credit and is now a year behind in science (which while at Fontebonne she maintained a 98 grade average). The guidance counselor is also unresponsive. My daughter witnessed an extremely offensive racist remark from one student towards another students nationality and reported to the guidance counselor. I also reported it to the guidance counselor and nothing was done. No follow-up to the report no investigation. Absolutely nothing was done. If nothing else, tolerance should be taught along with academics which this school unfortunately doesn't offer either. I suggest that you really lol into this school before sending your daughter there.
