They are sweet and efficient but have no idea how to deal with less than perfect kids. We put our 4 yr old kiddo in this preschool this year, hoping for a chance at some normalcy for this child who had already been through 9 surgeries, several of them open heart. Kiddo has been by all means a miracle child and has absolutely been through it. We discussed in depth with doctors, therapists, etc before making the decision to send him to school as the right decision. However, as expected, kiddo got sick a bit more than the other kids as kiddos immune system isn't as strong. They have strict sick policy, which we respect and understand. At the end of October, we have our first conference. Nothing is mentioned except an issue with answering to kiddos name and acknowledging direction. Nothing new. Nothing mentioned about "educational value." Fast forward to several weeks before Thanksgiving and sickness is going around. The normal kids are recovering in days, it' takes our kiddo a week to consider sending him back. We try it, and end up having to come get kiddo. We are asked to keep kiddo home until the cough is completely gone. We finally send kiddo back after Thanksgiving and 3 school days later, these people have the audacity to message and say kiddo is not getting " any educational value" and would like us to remove kiddo from class. Zero mention of this at the conference. Zero in the hundreds of messages they send weekly. They find a way to say "we can't handle your kiddo , even though we said we could" They even tried to tell us how we should be parenting and thought we should "consider therapy." Do you not listen? Doctors and therapists are who we consulted with to decide to send him to preschool!! Also, it's your job to GIVE every child the educational value. Something every educator in your preschool should be able to do. Educational value is all on the teacher ‍‍We were thinking about sending our 2 year old next year. But thanks for saving us money and showing how bottom of the barrel your preschool is! Why did you say you would take kiddo on when we disclosed from the very first time we contacted your school that he had some health challenges. Why Lie?!?! Stay away from this scam of a preschool. On the bright side their drop off is about as efficient as Chick Fil A .... So I guess

Review for The Goddard School (Suwanee Pre-K Program)…read more Our 4-year-old son attended this Goddard location for about a month in the Pre-K program. We waited a few weeks after withdrawing him before sharing our experience because we wanted to be sure he was adjusting well in a different environment and he truly is. Pros: Good curriculum and a clean, secure facility. Cons: From the very first day, his teacher (Angela) repeatedly told us that he "doesn't listen," and that first impression never seemed to change. Instead of partnering with us, we felt that our son was being singled out with a continued negative focus. We tried to discipline him more at home based on this feedback, and in hindsight, we regret how this affected him. Communication was almost nonexistent. We asked for weekly updates and only received one. The school app, where teachers are expected to communicate, had very limited personalized information. Interactions with his teacher often felt unfriendly. When we greeted her in the mornings, she provided cold response, which made us feel unwelcome rather than supported. Management was unaware of these ongoing issues until we brought them up. While they expressed willingness to help, but we felt that their suggestions were not convincing. We completely understand that teachers can be firm, that is perfectly fine. But fairness and collaboration matter. When a child is viewed through a negative lens from day one, that can impact not only their confidence but also the parent-school relationship. We ultimately removed him because we did not want him in an environment that felt discouraging. He is now attending a new Pre-K program and has adjusted wonderfully. In several weeks, we have not received a single complaint from his new teachers. This reassured us that his struggles at Goddard were not due to who he is as a child, but the environment he was placed in. Most reviews for this school are very positive, and that is exactly why we feel obligated to share our honest experience. If we had known, we would not have enrolled our son here. Parents considering this Pre-K program should ask clear questions about communication and how behavior concerns are handled. We hope our feedback helps the school improve so every child and every parent feels supported

I then encountered Brittany (who stated she is the Director) which was very stand offish, unclear in communication, and aggressive. She thought holding admission information would prompt me to attend a tour due to her lack of hospitality and professionalism. I am not sure if this is the policy Alex and Kate have set, but as a business owner, I know how important transparency and communication is to my clients who invest in our business. I hope for the future, the Director and Franchisees work on a policy to provide transparency and open dialog with potential and existing clients. Holding any admission information is not the best way to promote your business or entice clients. I think the lack of professionalism, transparency, and unfriendly behavior is a turn off from moving forward with a tour or placing my children in Primrose's care. Thanks Brittany for your lack of professionalism and unfriendly behavior. Hopefully anyone calling in the future for admission information will have a better experience. PS tours are not convenient for families relocating, hence the call for admission information.

As parent we are equally focused on our son learning as we are in him receiving the love and attention so that he enjoys his school experience. No point in making the learning "dry" since he will get plenty of that in his later years. So far he had 4 different teachers and at least 3 out of 4 were extremely affectionate towards him. The fourth one was good, but probably a better fit for older classes where enforcing discipline is more important. He has learned a ton, even though he goes part time, 3 days a week. My wife stays at home and we use the school to give her a break and so that our son starts learning and socializing at an early age. Since he joined school he became much better at sharing and socializing with his little friends. The only reason I am not giving maximum score in this review is the one instance where our son got a teacher that wasn't a good match for his class. In the school's defense, they corrected the issue quickly.

This is also the very first review I have ever written on an online forum in my more than 40-year life, so please know this situation was a very impactful one to my son and our family as a whole. Our journey with Alpharetta International Academy (AIA) was mixed. My son attended for two and a half years, and the first two years were positive. The staff seemed attentive, and my son thrived in a supportive environment. During the third year, things changed. Because he was not fully potty-trained, AIA didn't promote him to the 3-year-old class, even though developmentally and academically he was capable of tasks well-suited to a preschool environment. Instead, he was placed in a class with toddlers as young as 18 months, which seemed overcrowded, leaving his teacher (what was perceived to be) overwhelmed. Her teaching style changed, as did her overall demeanor and patience level. As a result, our son became bored and unchallenged, which impacted his behavior. We began receiving calls to pick him up due to what we believe stemmed from the teacher's frustration. These calls came on two separate occasions, one for the teacher's inability to redirect him during circle time and once when he picked up a Montessori-sized chair and when he put it down, it came down on the teacher's foot. Mind you, these two times were the only time in now almost three years that we were called for these things or that there was any type of misbehavior communicated to us on behalf of the school. Both times we picked him up, we were assured by the head of school that his teacher would follow up with us about his behavior, but this never happened. We twice asked the teacher to move him into a developmentally appropriate class. Just two weeks prior to his withdrawal I urged her to move him into the developmentally appropriate class temporarily as a "trial". All of these suggestions and requests were refused. It was disappointing for the teacher to be so unresponsive to our requests to address this clear mismatch in placement. This was the same teacher who had worked wonderfully with him for two years and who had previously shown genuine care and understanding, so we were left confused as to her actions, or lack thereof. As a Licensed Professional Counselor with experience working with children, as well as the daughter of two Doctorate Level public school teachers, I understand that children are at their best when they're engaged in age-appropriate, stimulating settings. It was disheartening to see that the AIA staff now seemed unable to understand the impact a poorly suited classroom environment could have on our son's behavior and learning. To add to our distress and disappointment, the head of school sent a disingenuous response to my email with my intent to withdraw my son from her school due to a lack of a suitable and appropriate classroom environment. She did express regret at our decision, saying she loved our son and was committed to working with him. Her email response was a conflicting message, combining both overly kind and positive statements with underlying hurtful remarks. She informed us that we would still be responsible for paying a sizable early withdrawal fee, totaling thousands of dollars. Although we were aware of this fee in the enrollment agreement, my husband responded to explain that, given the circumstances leading to the change, we felt it was unfair to be held financially responsible for their choices and when we were already having to spent thousands to place him in a different learning environment. He also mentioned we would be leaving an honest review of our experience to better inform other families considering AIA. In response, the head of school reiterated the fee due and informed that we should "please understand that any communication perceived as a threat has been formally documented and will be addressed through the proper channels if necessary". This statement was unnecessary and upsetting to us, as we were simply expressing our intent to share our experience honestly. Ultimately, while we value the initial positive experience our son had at AIA, the handling of this final chapter left us with reservations regarding AIA's ability to make decisions that are best for the children they serve and questions regarding their authenticity in their mission statement. I hope this review helps AIA consider ways to better support students' needs and communicate open and in real time with parents. Lastly, I hope this review enables other parents considering AIA to make the most informed decision that leads to the most positive outcome for their child and family as a whole.
