My child began the summer program at VPS before entering preschool. She attended PS, Pre-K, and…read moreKindergarten before we had to move away. Since then, I've toured many school campuses to enroll her, and I can confidently say that VPS offers an exceptional academic program along with outstanding after-school options. One thing that really stood out to me was the weekly presentations my daughter did. I believe they were based on alphabet items, though I may be mistaken. Regardless, these presentations were wonderful for building confidence and public-speaking skills at an early age. The homework reinforced what the children learned in class, and the at-home projects helped them feel proud and capable just like the "big kids." The after-school programs are excellent. My daughter did imagination station, sprout and blossom, violin lessons, and homework club. It provides strong academic structure while also teaching manners, confidence, and responsibility. The staff is wonderful and truly knows every child. The only downside I experienced was when I requested a transcript for my child while applying to a new schools. I was told that transcripts were not available for those grades. I had asked if they could write a letter indicating they don't have transcripts or to create in for me but neither was done. After that, communication seemed to drop off, and it felt as though we were no longer a priority once we had left the school. Overall, I would still recommend VPS without hesitation. The tuition is also very reasonable for an IB and private school. I truly wish we could return to VPS or find another school just like it.

My husband and I made the tough decision to move our toddler from the daycare he had known since he…read morewas 6 months old to Monty's Montessori. We noticed at the last daycare, he would come home irritable have excessive rashes, dirty, along with staff communication issues, screaming at drop off, dirty/broken equipment, and so many other issues. Immediately at Monty's, we noticed a difference. The teachers are very clear, caring, and sincere. The equipment is so well maintained and shared well with classmates. Now both of my sons attend Monty's and my toddler sprints to class every morning. My infant is always smiling when he sees his teachers and both classrooms have great communication. Any questions or concerns we had out of curiosity has been answered by the front office and everyone has been extremely polite. We love how engaged the staff is with the families and how receptive our kids have responded to the changes. Our only regret is not having moved our toddler sooner and to join the Monty family years ago!

Our family ultimately decided to withdraw our daughter from Monty's Montessori because it was no…read morelonger the right environment for her. Over time we experienced ongoing communication issues with administration, and concerns we brought forward were often dismissed rather than addressed in a constructive way. As months went on, the interactions with administration began to feel increasingly uncomfortable. Instead of working collaboratively when concerns were raised, responses often felt defensive or confrontational. As a parent, it started to feel like bringing forward normal questions about my child's experience was met with pushback rather than support. There were also situations where things discussed privately seemed to be talked about openly in the office, and unfortunately our child overheard comments that made her uncomfortable. That was very concerning to us as parents. In addition, there were basic care concerns that added to our decision. There were days our child came home having barely had any water, and when we asked about it we were told she needed to refill it herself, even though she sometimes struggled to open her bottle. Individually these things might seem small, but over time they created a pattern that made us lose confidence in how concerns were being handled. The final straw for us was an incident involving inappropriate content being discussed among the children. At that point we felt it was necessary to remove our daughter from the school. Every family's experience may be different, and we genuinely hope the school improves in how concerns from parents are handled because the children deserve a supportive and respectful environment.

I saw a vast difference in my child once he started at soar - he became a much more outgoing child and his grades skyrocketed. My youngest has been at soar since kindergarten and is now in 8th grade, his grades are awesome and he never wants to miss school (he's really hoping for perfect attendance this year). I have referred friends, coworkers and family to soar. My co-worker moved her daughter to soar for her 7th grade year this year and said that she has also seen such a dramatic difference in her daughter's grades as well as her attitude. I 100% recommend SOAR if you're looking for a place for your child to thrive!

My son started tutoring twice a week with Rosemary over the summer. I have gone through several…read moretutors and she is by far the best. She is really thorough in her teaching. She goes above and beyond for her students. My son was struggling a lot with writing. She has taught him how to form paragraphs, use transition words, use proper punctuation, taught him how to answer questions with details and even worked on him with RACE, which he uses at school. Not only did she work on him with reading and writing but she also took the time to have him practice and learn his multiplication and division math facts. I am extremely satisfied with her tutoring services. Not only has my sons writing improved but I also see that he is more confident in doing his homework this school year and he participates in class a lot more than before. I still continue to take him to tutor with Rosemary and I have already recommended her to a few of my friends. I've been through several tutors and I feel like a lot of places just care about the money, however at Chartwell tutoring you can tell they care so much about the students. We love Rosemary!

Well knowing online schooling hasn't been easy for any child now that my child is forced to sit for hours on his computer makes it that much worse. Mr. Morrison knowing my child has ADHD has had no patience not only for my child but for many other students in his class and I am able to say this because I have witnessed him myself yelling and being extremely rude to the other children with no remorse!!!!! He's even went to the extent of making one of the little girls in his class cry. It has made me so angry with many attempts to give him chances but I've gotten to the point where I am now obligated to change my child's school where they will give him respect and the extra attention for his needs.
