The teachers support our children intimately and the environment provides so much security and growth. We have grown to love the other students and families. It's hard to describe how special this school is. We knew it the moment we stepped foot in the hallway. To hear children singing Christian songs in the morning, to morning prayer during AM assembly to children re-enacting Stations of the Cross. Every school mass has children leading. To hear their angelic voices in unity during mass is more precious than gold. Our children pray fervently and with full faith. I can't thank St. Mary enough for the intentional care each faculty and staff member pour into the children. I highly recommend St. Mary

When Student was 11 and got A's in her college courses. We had actually informed Student that since…read morethese were college courses (and no other options were available that semester with Covid) getting F or D's were perfectly Ok - even expected. When I saw she had near perfect scores, I was impressed, but I also felt burdened. I knew I had a child that was going to need excess resources and there wouldn't be a clear roadmap. Normally I would teach and coach her in math, chess, homework, computers, tech etc. But I feel the roles got reversed really early. I don't know if it's a national or international issue, Santa Clara or Gilroy, but I've seen a trend recently a lot of students have been leaving SC schools: eg students getting pulled out for homeschooling (so much so that CA agencies are aware of this trend). Other Asian families in the Gilroy area complained the local schools were racist, prejudiced. Unlike some nearby schools, whether it was a student like ours that needed special academic challenges, or other students with diverse or difficult backgrounds - (I want to make clear that most "trouble" students are actually extremely bright. I also think many, many students are capable of college level study early. Just the logistics can be really difficult) - St. Mary's welcomed both the students and families, parents into a large family. Now Student is 14 and mom purchased a brand new race motorcycle for her. She plans when she turns 15 to ride legally (as CA DMV allows). So it's really a matter of months that she'll have her own vehicle, and riding motorcycles on her own. There was this really narrow window of opportunity for teachers and staff, administration, other families and parents to help Student. St. Mary's really was (not just saying; actually) formed a village and gave the guidance, help, teaching, discipline, love and faith needed - really very badly needed - to send Student and Family in a good direction. It's difficult for me to recall names, but... Thank you Principal Ervin, Mrs. Dowd, Mr. Williams, Ms. Layman. Thank you staff Mrs. Emily, Mrs. Karen Moreno, Mrs. Tanaya. Dawn for constantly reaching out to us, late night urgent text msgs to get media / projects we missed; including Student in all the media presentations. (I'm getting help on this comment so will be adding names). Thank you St. Mary's staff holding up an entire school travel bus just to take Student on board. Any other school would have just left Student behind. We completely forgot about the huge school trip. With my background, I really thought I'd be the last person having no idea how to parent. God, Jesus operates in and within St. Marys. God makes good better, and those in difficulty - healed. We were so blessed to have their Love and Faith; we watched not just Student, but many students taken in - regardless of challenges - improved, cared for, and sent to High School with Blessings. I remember multiple times really wishing St. Marys had a high school. I felt really insecure about us having aged out / graduating from Marys. We really appreciated the positive feedback from staff, teachers of our parenting. I'm not an expert, but I feel a lot of students this age - they're happy to get the dress they want for Prom / dance, the top-of-the-line GoKart, the best cell phone. But often, Student was very very disappointed I couldn't quickly get her a McLaren W1, the HP4 race bike equipped with "straight Akrapovic pipes"... I had to write emails to Service departments asking them not to take instructions from Student, as she had a $32,000.00 "mod order w/ rush" she put in herself on my vehicle; calls emails from MacLaren on the "new vehicle" I was apparently about to purchase. (She has admits having all my banking info and self-taught computer programming; went from creating AI entities / avatars on Roblox straight to hacking my accounts). Even though I knew Student would need to get a career and make her own money one day to buy McLarens, I did often feel I couldn't give Student the resources she wanted to pursue her interests / passions. St. Marys had that Holy Spirit or just kind-heartedness to compliment us on ways they saw good parenting, and that gave us a real sense of relief and satisfaction. Especially for me, I'd never been a parent before. (There's no reddit for this kind of stuff). Ideally, God is always in our lives, whether we have everything figured out or not. If or when you can't handle things, you need God. Whether your student / kids are already good, or facing challenges, God is the best option and St. Marys has God's presence to improve the students and families that go there. I recommend you do everything possible to have your child at St. Marys. Divine guidance / school is available in Gilroy.

My heart is breaking a little as I type this review because we aren't going back to MHPCNS. The…read moretime has come to move on, and it hurts! We have been part of this incredible school since September of 2018, when my older daughter was just a year and a half old. She went through the 2/3's class twice due to her young age. The second time around, I was pregnant with my second daughter, and the director changed to Stefanie Zoccoli, who had been Priya's original 2/3's teacher. I could never find the words to adequately express just how incredible Stefanie is. She is deeply passionate, loving, endlessly creative, energetic, bright, devoted, and more! It has been the greatest joy to watch her teach and direct the school. When it came time for 3/4's, we were dealing with the pandemic. Stefanie didn't skip a beat! She put together the most creative packages for us to pick up and use during Zoom sessions. They were filled with experiential learning activities. Zoom was far from ideal for 3/4's, but Stefanie blew us away with her creativity. Our older daughter was able to return to the gorgeous campus for Pre-K, and she had the best year! Stefanie was her teacher, and everything was glorious! Our little one attended 2/3's with Ms. Kaitlin, who was also a wonderful teacher. Since we are moving on to a kindergarten in San Jose, we won't be able to send our little one to MHPCNS. I will always treasure the many days spent at that idyllic co-op preschool, and will be forever grateful for Stefanie, Kaitlin, and all of the wonderful parent volunteers who loved and nurtured my children.

The parents are so involved, kind and welcoming we felt a sense of community the school brings to everyone. I feel I have a great group of parents, which I can call friends! MHPCN is our second co-op preschool which we have attended. It's a great program and I recommend parents to reach out to the school for more information and a tour.

My son who started attending when he was 2 was prepared for kindergarten thanks to creative play. Now my second son is in tk at creative play and has also been since he was 2. My son had a speach delay and it was Julie (the owner) whom brought it to my attention in a caring way and guided us to the process of finding the right speach therapist and thanks to her our now 5 year old is flourishing. He loves school! His teacher even came to watch one of his soccer games. (It's that kinda school). My son has made numerous friends and walks in every day holding his little school bag with confidence and looks forward to his day. My youngest son will attend this summer when he turns 2 as the summer programs are amazing they offer water day, food crafts, sports which is perfect for us working moms. Creative play is my village! I appreciate the love, support, kindness and gentleness they have with my sons. Julie and her staff take the time to make you feel like family. A few amazing things that I appreciate is they understand working parents schedules and offer extended care when other places do not. They also have class parties, spirit week, pumpkin patch field trips and the most adorable Christmas program! If you're looking for a caring, reliable preschool/tk creative play is it!!!

They have made so many friends and love all their teachers. All of the teachers and staff have been so wonderful and accommodating. We truly feel that our children are loved , safe, and cared for. As a teacher myself, I have been more than impressed with the amount of curriculum my children have been exposed to and learned this school year. They have learned their numbers, letters, phonics, and so many lifelong learning skills all before age four. I have also noticed so many new wonderful behaviors my twins have picked up from attending LSS such as praying or thanking me for the food before they eat, using manners, sharing, and just deeply caring for others around them. We have made so many great friends here as well. Without any doubt, I highly recommend Little Sonshine for anyone looking for a Preschool, PK, TK, or Kindergarten for their little ones and desire a school that not only educates the whole child, but teaches them to be compassionate to others too. You will enjoy the annual Christmas Program, Fall and Spring Photos, Bike-a-thon, Mother's Day Tea, and Father's Day Donuts, Graduation, and many other events. As parents we also receive weekly feedback from the teachers and monthly newsletters. The teachers are ver approachable and respond to your needs and questions immediately. I feel like I gained a community of friends and family from LSS. Little Sonshine Schoolhouse will always hold a special place in my family's hearts forever.
