My daughter is in her second year at Native School and we cannot say enough good things about it!…read moreUnfortunately there has been some bad publicity because a former employee (trying to steal students away to a competing school she was opening) fed parents misinformation that scared them, including launching a really personal attack against the amazing director, Shannon, who is an incredibly transparent and thoughtful preschool director. She hosts regular meetings for parents to talk to her and will also always be happy to hop on a meeting any afternoon to discuss any questions and concerns. The program itself stood out to me immediately for being a really good supportive model for development. The students are not playing "Lord of the Flies" out in the woods, they are guided and supported by amazing teachers who spend their afternoons writing documentation of the learning in their classrooms and designing emergent curriculum. We could not be happier with the school we chose and our daughter loves school passionately. We have even decided to keep her in Native School another year instead of moving to the free public TK because of how much we love the program and the teachers.

***Warning to parents*** My experience with the teachers…read morewas generally good but you could tell there was a disconnect between them and upper management due to the high turnover rate and disruption in teacher continuity. The frequent and disruptive staff changes significantly effected my 4 year old son who was upset to see teachers come and go. At the end of our semester for 2024-2025 it became worse and substitutes/new faces were very common. We were told by some teachers that quit that safety regs/guidelines were not being followed(especially on rainy/stormy days). All that being said, we decided to pull our child out from the Fall 2025 semester. We had already paid for it but we figured we would be returned our reservation money due to the circumstances. Management refused our first attempt to reimburse us even after my child's spot was filled(Bad business etiquette). So here we are with our reviews and our next steps will be small claims. In the contract it states that they will maintain a consistent and properly staffed program...That was not our experience.

This lady absolutely does not deserve to be an instructor. Strict, mean, slammed onto the brakes multiple times NONE of them being safety reasons. Just because she wanted to. Made me cry. Said things like "how are you even going to pass your test". Mind you my text was the following day. Making me even more nervous. And the funny thing is of course I passed my driving test at the dmv LOL. But what I want to say is if you are thinking of choosing this school. DONT.. My other friend also said that Margarita was a horrible person to be an instructor as well. Hope she gets removed from this facility.

I asked again and he started to get confrontational and told me to get out and that he is not moving any where. Thank god his wife was there and said she can move one of the vehicle so everyone practicing for the drive test can get by. I just wanted to let everyone know how this man thinks and acts before you spend your hard earned money on this company... I would look elsewhere for sure.

The surf camp experience in Algarve, Portugal that was advertised was not what we walked into when…read morewe dropped off our daughter and her two friends for Week 1 in June, 2024. It was a kids camp and an adult camp operated simultaneously at the same facility. Based on the conversations with Jose (the owner) and the experience detailed online, we were expecting (and our kids were anticipating) a bustling camp of approximately 30 kids from all over the world. Instead, our group got 7 other kids and 15 adults. We were told that this camp was a good one for our 12 year old daughter because it catered to the younger side of the 12 to 17 age range. It is incredible to us that we were told this without disclosure that, in fact, the camp catered to adults to the degree that the children attending the camp did not feel welcome at any of the facilities or secure in their own rooms. On the first night we were contacted by our daughter after she and the other girls went to bed. She told us she and the other girls felt unsafe. There were adults smoking, drinking, yelling and playing loud music at the camp bar, directly outside their bedroom door. The bedroom door did not lock and there was a door that led outside that also did not lock. The girls, aged 12 to 17, felt compelled to barricade their door for safety. We were told that the councilors left at 10pm, and the children were left alone with adult strangers in a house in a remote location. The partying and loud noise continued out at the pool area until after midnight when one of the older girls went out and had to ask the adult guests to turn the music down. The following morning the parents of all but one of the girls pulled their kids from the camp, leaving one girl alone. Some parents were scrambling from other countries to get their kids back to the airport less than 12 hours after they arrived. Our kids had been looking forward to this camp for months and the disappointment was palpable. Nomad refunded our money. Jose, the owner, never reached out to speak with us or respond to our emails or WhatsApp messages, despite repeated requests.
