He rarely was upset with drop offs but when he was the teachers did a great job redirecting him and providing him love. My son also made some great friends at the Sandbox that have been a strong foundation to his confidence and happiness and I owe this to the wonderful teachers and staff at the Sandbox Early Learning Center. I am so thankful my son spent his early years there.

In the beginning I loved this place but a lot of good teachers were leaving. Also since a certain…read moreteacher left they stopped doing gardening class. Then another teacher left and they stopped posting pictures and videos to the app daily which they were doing and it was great. I'm not sure about the other classes but we went through a couple teachers. They have a big playground my child loved to play on. A lot of toys. Art class. Science class. They had a lot of fun stuff to do there. The have fun extra things on some weekends. They also worked with the school district to get my child eval for an IEP. At the end of the day I went there after a week vacation and my child no longer had the same teacher again. So I didn't really know the new teacher at all. The guy working on the playground was also new and other new staff I just took that opportunity to just take my child out. I also wanted to mention I posted a review previously here when my daughter was still going here and just mentioning a "few small complaints but over all that I loved this place." And 3 stars. It was followed by the Risa in the front office calling me and screaming at me for about 20 minutes. Followed by nagging from other staff to take the review down. Also my complaint was about like basically all my child's teachers leaving. Obviously left a bad taste in my mouth. And the fact that my name isn't even on here and neither is my child's. The call was a bit surprising. But also eye opening.

This is an actual test question my child was asked on their middle school civil war test at this…read moreschool which speaks for itself. Which American president said "only white men should be in charge of rebuilding the south"? The question was not couched in any language to describe that this president was known for his drunkenness or being a terrible president. The quote was not listed on the study guide as need to know material for students. And yet, it was on the test along with several other questionably framed topics regarding slavery and civil war. These types of questions are damaging to children who are already bullied for being different in some ways from the white men who hold privilege/power in our country. The new principal is harsh and unforgiving. She has no qualms about threatening parents with crimes for stopping to talk to teachers before or after school while at the same time telling parents to stop emailing all the time. How are parents supposed to advocate for their children if they cannot stop to talk to the teachers or email them? Her solution is to let kids sink and fail repeatedly while being bullied by teachers and students daily. Is it appropriate for a teacher to ask a student to turn off the light for class and when they get up to do so, say "you need the exercise" followed by laughter of all the middle school classmates. This happens at Cyril (a male teacher in junior high commenting on a female child's need for exercise). Is it appropriate for a teacher (whom the student told before class they forgot their contacts and weren't seeing the board well) to then ask that student to read the board and answer the question from their seat? And then when the student responds I can't see it well today, for the teacher to respond, I bet you can't to the laughter of all the other students? Is it appropriate for a school to make an accommodation plan for a student and then choose not to follow it repeatedly despite parent documentation of the lapses? Why even make a plan if you are going to shame the child for needing it? Is it ok for teachers to stop parents anytime or anywhere on campus for an impromptu meeting including in hallways to discuss private matters like mental health, grades, or quality of notes BUT have a policy that parents cannot stop and talk to teachers about the same things? Is it appropriate for a school to ban parents and students from speaking their native languages like Spanish on campus? What about when their child is hurt or injured and the parent is trying to comfort them? The parents are scolded, "English please", by this new principal. This school has had multiple leadership changes over the last few years. We were family here for 8 years and have finally realized that they don't really care about you or your kids. They care about control and compliance. They don't really care about diversity. They care about kids sitting down and shutting up while they are fed bullying alongside questionable teaching practices such as shaming and yelling at kids. Your money (or state funds from ESA) supports old and outdated teaching that leads to bullying at this school and in the future workplace. It's sad to see such kind families be taken advantage of and bullied into silence and submission. My children were frequent honor roll students and still had issues, how will your students fare here?

I really had high hopes for this school and this new administration. My hopes were quickly…read moreextinguished this last Friday during the assessment testing for placement in your school. The unprofessionalism that was displayed by Jennifer Buchanan was outright sickening and disgusting. She verbally attacked the school and staff that currently enhances my child's life and education. Not only did she do that publicly in front of all of the parents, but in front of the children as well. What adult does that?! That's absolute bullying, defamation of character, and abuse of power. She also lied to a lot of us. A few months ago she verbally promised us that our children had a guaranteed spot only to back peddle and say that was not the case. And not to mention, she had zero data to back up her malicious, false claims! You clearly have an integrity issue here. I have heard stories of the staff bullying families and again, I was open to giving this school another chance because the administration had changed. Apparently old, ugly spirited, and gross standards remain. What part of how you treat people is Godlike in your Catholic school? Why do you place unqualified people in positions where they abuse their unqualified power? I am so grateful that this all happened so I didn't waste my money and or tax credits on your school. St. Cyrils, you have lost so many amazing families over this. Not only did this cost you incredible humans within these families, it cost you so much in tuition dollars, and this continued behavior continues to cost you your reputation.

We absolutely love the community we've made at St. Marks and are so thankful that the teachers and staff have poured so much into our kids. Teachers put time and effort in long after the day is done to make sure kids have great experiences that focus on the child as a whole. We really can't say enough about how much we love St. Marks.

I paid for the time he was there plus also paid an additional $280 2 weeks advance, 2 weeks he did not go since I pulled him out of the school. They're refusing to give me a refund because I was to have given a 2 week withdrawal notice despite the fact my son was only enrolled there for 2.5 weeks, so that doesn't make sense. I can POSSIBLY understand a company's point of view but as a customer, why are you keeping my money you didn't earn? The facility didn't care for my son those days therefore shouldn't free pocket MY $280. There was always different teachers in his class, never knew them by name, once there were two new teachers in there together in the evening (I'd never seen them before, they were wearing matching polo yellow shirts) and one was complaining about how she is sick (it was obvious too), probably why my son got sick. So if you're testing the waters with new child care facilities keep that in mind especially if it doesn't end up working out!
