The staff at CHS is horrendous I went for only a year, got put in there disciplinary school with lies of me coming back full time. The head of the child study team told me I would come back for two more classes every marking period and then decides out of no where to have a break from chs and be full time at the disciplinary school before coming back FOR ONLY ONE CLASS each time (lets just say they wanted me to screw up). I had to finish highschool at Saint patricks to get an actual diploma and finish full time under a primary school program. The faculty at the disciplinary school was more then helpful in setting my head on straight though, really good people there. The highschool staff does not have your child's best interest in mind and focus on what will make their school look better instead. They never let me take electives pertaining to graphic design which I now have to take in college, because they told me thats not what I needed even though it's my major now.... lmao yup this place sucks, if you're child is not a stereo typical suburban type and shows any form of individuality they will give your kid a hard time.

My mom and dad were married here 76 years ago in 1940. Ever since then except for times away on…read morevacation, it has been their Parish. Even today now that my mom at 100 cannot make it to the church, St. Michael's comes to her. On Sundays mom can watch mass on Cranford's cable TV 35, Eucharistic Ministers are available to bring Communion to our home for her. Through the years St Michael's has kept with the times according to directives from the Vatican. These changes, some of them physical, have not changed the basic modified Romanesque architecture. The priest will come to the home to administer the sacraments. Moreover weather you are a Parish member or a visiting guest, St Michael's feels like home. This is due to the welcoming nature of the clergy on down to the young people who volunteer their time to help out.

Miss Jessica and Stephanie are caring, great teachers, full of new ideas for the kids. You can see that they love what they do and they care for our children. They are both attentive not only to the children but also to the parents and really do what they can to insure follow through between house / school behavior which is awesome! Mr Anthony and Miss Amy are always here to answer questions, they are personable and really accommodating if they can. They surprised us through the year with fantastic shows, activities for the kids : petting zoo for Halloween, Puppet show, Framer with little chicks, huge easter egg hunt, planting flowers, ect ... Price wise , they are really reasonable for the service provided. From outside it does look like much , but please do not hesitate to call in , you will not regret it !!!! We are moving and so we will have to switch daycare next year but will always remember dearly our Discovery Child Care family :)

The tuition flwas a bit pricy for my budget since they didn't offer part time but I would highly recommend sending kids here. I'm sad I wasn't able to enroll my son into this school.

The school has been wonderful! It is small so you really get to know everyone there and it is obvious they all care so much about the children. They focus on learning through play and also have additional enrichments like guest readers, a dentist that visits to talk about oral health, fire station trip, etc. My son is learning to write upper and lower case letters and numbers this year and is doing so well! They have a lovely outdoor playground and an indoor gym so the kids can run and play even in inclement weather. They really make learning fun and engaging for the kids and my son is so happy and excited to go to school each day. I would absolutely (and have!) recommended CFCNS to anyone with a preschool or pre-k aged child. I can't wait until my younger child can attend here as well!
