A poster depiction of a terribly administered Catholic school in the state of New Jersey…read more From a politically driven administration lead by the school's principal Sister Cheree to favoritism and political chaos between the teachers, PTA and parents and ultimately impacting the quality of the students education. Teachers are generally motivated to clock in and clock out, have students read their workbooks and study from the books and do not actually teach at all. Consequently the schools enrollment has suffered drastically through out the years despite efforts by the school to resuscitate it from its damaged reputation in the community. Stay away from this school!

My past review has been removed, so Im reposting. I was very disappointed in the experience here,…read moreand the unprofessional antics of the administration. My family was not treated well, and the lack of quality of the education, is appalling. They are only interested in how much money you can raise, and how to keep the school open. This is a soriety, that you dont want your family to be part of. If I could rate this institution a zero, I would.

We cannot say enough positive things about Genius Kids Academy, Ms. Marina, the staff, and the…read moreabsolutely amazing experience they have provided for our daughter! Maddie started at Genius Kids this past September. Going to school for the first time, after being home with me for two years, she was extremely tentative and shy. However, within a few weeks, she was talking non-stop about her friends and teachers (Ms. Kate and Ms. Tina), singing all of her "circle time" songs at the top of her lungs, looking forward to Wednesday music classes with Ms. Tanya, and beaming from ear to ear whenever we mentioned her school. To say that she - and we - have LOVED Genius Kids is an understatement. My older son attended two different daycares when he was younger, and invariably we were dissatisfied with different aspects of them. This is not the case with Genius Kids. We have been thrilled every single day with the level of care, safety, attentiveness, communication, and nurturing provided. The staff works tirelessly to provide special experiences, activities, and memories for the children - shows throughout the year, festive events and parties, an abundance of cheerful and constantly-changing decorations, pool time and outdoor picnics, watching caterpillars turn into butterflies, daily songs and dancing. The children are always engaged and learning. It is remarkable how Maddie has learned numbers, counting, letters, shapes, and days of the week this year, the words to countless songs, how to be fully potty trained, and so many other unquantifiable skills - social/friendship skills, helpfulness, independence, maturity, confidence, and an expansive imagination that is constantly finding ways to engage in make-believe play (including her favorite activity at home, which of course is pretending that she is Ms. Kate and Ms. Tina leading the class). We are grateful that we have been able to witness Maddie's journey and incredible experiences at school thanks to the video monitoring, constant communication (updates/pictures), and high level of responsiveness from the staff. More than anything, what we have appreciated from Ms. Marina and the teachers is the level of genuine caring that they exhibit for the children. Genius Kids is not filled with disgruntled, transient teachers who are just working for a paycheck. On the contrary, every day we are confident that we are sending Maddie to a place where she is truly loved, where she feels special, where the staff's dedication is evident, and where she is in the best hands we could ask for. A place that brings her happiness and excitement, to which she is beyond eager to run out the door every morning. Genius Kids, because of you, Maddie has blossomed and flourished in so many ways. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for everything you have done for our girl. Love, The Palumbos
