The staff is fantastic, supportive, and allow my kids to explore what they enjoy doing. All of the teachers we've had so far are awesome. Very professional, yet give the kids personal attention. They are very nurturing and fun. My little one loves school so much that he sometimes actually cry because he can't go full time yet. They come home singing, happy, and have made good friends at school. That's all I can ask for.

The teachers know all of the students and family. It is truly a unique and special community. They offer Parent-Tot classes, preschool classes for ages 2-5 and Kindergarten. Their teachers have been trained through the Stanley BPS Teacher Preparation Program and understand the importance of the whole child!

We are Foster Parents to a beautiful 3 year old. We enrolled her at this school in January 2023…read more We absolutely have been so impressed with the staff, teachers and caliber of care that our foster daughter is receiving. Before she started, we had a "Get to know you" meeting with her 2 teachers, where they really wanted to know our daughter's preferences, personality, challenges etc. Ever since they have been so pro-active in staying in touch with us and providing the best experience for this 3 year old. It is a Head Start Preschool so all foster children can attend for free Monday-Thursday. Her class is so diverse there are 6 different languages that are spoken. I would highly recommend this school. The facility is clean and the outdoor area, spacious.

It includes a small town center as well as a senior housing complex as well as several parks. It is located in a nice area of town and attracts many types of buyers and renters.

Took a tour of kiddie academy and had to share my experience. Security was a huge concern for me…read more They didn't check IDs for parents on a group tour I was in. Also saw a worker kick a pillow next to an infants head. Saw multiple workers just chilling not interacting with children or even seeming to monitor them. They do not seem to use Montessori principles though they claim they do. This is truly a daycare - I didn't see any learning going on. Overall for what you'd pay to go here there are so many better options. Please look around before deciding on this place.

My wife and I scheduled a tour on their website for June 19th. Leading up to our appointment, we…read morereceived reminder emails and texts. When we showed up to the facility the doors were locked. When we called their number, it was sent to voicemail and we left a message telling them we were out front ready for the tour. From the outside looking into the foyer we could see a calendar on the wall noting that they would be closed the day of our appointment. I understand that mistakes happen and things can be inadvertently overlooked, but I find it to be a glaring red flag that no one has yet to reach out to us. I think that speaks to the overall lack of accountability, communication, and organization of this facility. RE: Owner's Reply The apology is appreciated, however, the lack of accountability and organization is even more apparent now. My wife received multiple text reminders - up to the morning of the tour, confirming the appointment. Trying to shift the blame to us to discredit this review is more telling than any tour experience.

I wish I could give zero stars. The bullying problem at ISD is out of control, and the school does…read morenext to nothing to truly address it. Their approach is to "talk" to the kids and have them fill out a "Reflection Form", which clearly accomplishes nothing--because the same kids repeat the same bullying behavior the very next week. To make matters worse, the tuition at ISD is incredibly expensive, and for that price, you'd expect a safe and supportive environment. Instead, the teachers' only response is to send emails to the parents, as if that will solve the issue. It feels like a performative, "Nutella Culture" approach: soft on the surface but lacking any real action or accountability. As a parent, it's heartbreaking to see children being mistreated while the administration turns a blind eye to the root of the problem. More and more families are pulling their kids out of ISD, and I'm beginning to understand why. If you care about your child's well-being and a safe school environment, I would look elsewhere.

My daughter was bullied and nothing was done to correct bad behavior of other students until we made very formal and repetitive complaints. Even then, the response was very weak. The elementary school teachers are good (we had 2 kids enrolled - one in elementary and one in middle school). We had to pull them out of school and changed to a better private school in Denver.
