I can remember looking for a school for my grandsons and reading these yelp reviews and questioning…read moreit. but there is no questioning the school. They have amazing teachers with amazing staff, especially Mrs. Jo She's the best and Mrs. Bobbi we're gonna miss them so much. This is the cheapest school you'll ever find with the best teachers and staff. Highly recommend them thank you so much Trace Academy.

Wow, I have been waiting months to write this review to see if they would rectify anything but can…read moreconfirm that I am super glad my child does not go to Trace. We considered it since it is super well priced and conveniently located. I didn't love how small it is and that there is no outdoor space. Kids love being outdoors! But it was worth considering. During the tour we were given a waitlist form and told it is $50 to hold the spot. Great! In mid-August I physically drove to the school to hand them the form and the check. I check my bank accounts at the beginning of each month, and thought it was odd it was not cashed at the beginning of September. I email the school to say that I noticed it has not been cash and am confirming receipt. NO RESPONSE I email again a week later. NO RESPONSE I start to think maybe something is wrong with their email. I have conversed via email before, which is how I scheduled the tour to begin with. I confirmed it is the same email address. I am also worried that maybe they lost my check and they are intentionally ignoring me until they find it. I don't know what is going on, but I go directly to their website and message them through their online portal. NO RESPONSE It is a huge red flag to me when I am actively attempting to give an organization money and they are not responsive. If they don't respond to me trying to give them money, how are they going to treat me once they have it? I do not know what their excuse is, but at this point, I don't care. Short staffed? Server down? Too busy? All not great things for a preschool. I decide to call Trace at the end of October. So they have had my check for over 2 months and completely ignored all attempts for me to contact them. Trace: I have you're check right here, I'll cash it today Me: oh...ok. I have tried emailing a couple times. Trace: Yes, I got your emails. Ok...no apology, no explanation. Just telling me they've had my check sitting there for over 2 months and have actively been avoiding my messages. Honestly if she had been remorseful, provided an explanation or even been remotely nice over the phone, I would have considered still sending my child, but this conversation was the nail in the coffin for me. We really did not like the way we were treated as potential parents and decided to go elsewhere out of principle. I would definitely not recommend them and I would never send my child there.

The staff was amazing, caring and so attentive towards him, they have set the bar for what I expect from all other daycares in the future. They do everything to keep the parents involved from daily check-ins, giving curriculum updates, and sending daily updates of your baby. As a first-time mom, they put all my worries at ease and I always recommend this place to anyone who asks. I honestly don't know how they don't have a 5-star rating because the whole staff truly cares about their kids and provides an environment for them to grow safe and confident.

Everyone was so friendly and knew my child's name and he loved them back. He smiled and got excited to spend his day with them and even saying goodbye, which to me was a good sign. This place was ALWAYS clean, never had any funky odors, and even the other parents where so friendly in passing. Toys, high chairs, counters, etc were always clean - I'm honestly not sure how they do it! Entry is gated with an access code and parking is located a short walk away. Teachers plan fun art activities with the children that get sent home for you to keep. Teachers update you throughout the day with diaper changes, feedings, and my favorite - photos - to see how their day is going, through Pro Care app. The ONLY reason we are no longer here, is because we couldn't afford it. We don't qualify for any kind of assistance and the cost was starting to add up for us. To the entire team at Stepping Stones Waipahu - we greatly appreciate the care you took of our miracle baby!

1/11/23 review for PHCA (Pearl Harbor Christian Academy)…read more My son had 2 times of incidents that his classmate was hiding class I-Pad. My son reported to HR teacher. At that time no intervention. Today is 2nd time it happened again. why??? It is very stressful to knowing what is going on. I had to send him back to class and looked for every desk and every where.. my son found someone's bag. This is very very disappointing. Why school do not have any intervention to teach. I emailed to HR teach and I am kind of waiting to hear their reaction and what is intervention. Is this really pray to GOD every day? Should I think about getting worse or better? I am putting message only one of staff can read and do better work for kids. I will continue to update with school's and HR teacher's intervention. Rating can be change to 5 or stay 1

Communication between the school and ourselves were seamless. It was so easy to get the information that we needed in order for our little one to be set. My other half went on their tour and was just mind blown at how well behaved these preschoolers were. This is not your typical traditional school. The campus is nestled in Pearl city on E Komo Mai Drive. I am so beyond excited for him to start school with this legacy who has had the best reputation over numerous years. Everyone here, including the head of the school is nothing but professional and respectful.

As he's gotten older he's continued to love going to RLA. He's always happy to see his teachers and is all smiles when we drop him off. I really appreciate that they provide meals (breakfast and lunch / snacks). The lunches are impressive (IMO) and expose my son to a lot of foods we don't have at home. On another note, we liked RLA so much that we enrolled my daughter for the summer before she started kindergarten. The class size was small (which has both plusses and minuses, depending on what is important to you). Mainly we liked the curriculum and the amount of hands on activities they were able to do with a small class size. The teacher incorporated some pre-k activities since I wanted to make sure my daughter was prepared for Kindergarten.
