Hollin Meadows is currently undergoing a renovation, the new designs and floor plans look amazing…read more I teach chess here after school so I'm here every week. The staff at the front office are very kind and the school culture is very inclusive and offers a lot of activities. The only downside is parking is restricted so you'll find a lot of cars parked on the street. This becomes a cramped unsafe environment.

Our family was part of this school for two years, and in the beginning we truly felt at home. The…read moreteachers cared, our children were happy, and it felt like a community. Things changed after new leadership came in. The atmosphere shifted, communication became strained, and we started to feel pushed out. At one point our child's personal information was shared, which crossed a line for us. This used to be a warm and welcoming place that valued different backgrounds and perspectives. Sadly, that sense of inclusion is gone. I hope one day it becomes that kind of space again, but right now I wouldn't recommend it to families looking for a safe or supportive environment.

Great experience overall and the teachers were amazing. We are so grateful for our time here.read more

We just moved to the area from NY. I was looking for prek for my daughter and saw this school on my…read moreevening walks. I called for a tour and was placed on hold for 30 min. Called again 3 times and was told that they were too busy to "deal with my request". Then lady thing up as in was talking. I am so glad I got to see their true colors before sending my child to this dump. Luckily, I found another school and we are very pleased with level of service and professionalism. Warning: stay away from this place and do your research.

My daughter has been going for two years now. She started off in K5 and now is in the first grade…read more The teachers are top notch and really spend a lot of times with the kids. The classrooms are small, so I really like they extra attention she gets. Her K5 teacher was the BOMB!! I love her and she really has a passion for teaching kids. I do recommend this school to anyone!

One of the teachers allowed another child to report to me about my son's behavior during dismissal…read more She watched and nodded along as the child reported. This is extremely unprofessional. A teacher had a man that DOES NOT work at the school sitting in the school with her watching her work during after care hours. I did not know who this man was and I am sure he did not pass the necessary background check required for educators. That same teacher was vacuuming in one room while the children were alone in another room. My son was 3 or 4 years old at the time and the other students were young as well. If there had been a problem would she have been able to hear the emergency? The leader is rude to parents and students. In addition, for many years she has not had a proper board of directors. The board consisted of the founder and two of her relatives. This is a huge conflict of interest reflected in the schools inability to grow and adapt to relevant educational research. The Beddow School is supposed to be a non-profit. However, the school clearly ran in the best interest of the founder as opposed to the organization. Beddow operates like a for-profit business that mostly just benefits the founder. For example, the founder benefits by cutting costs and making staff that should be watching children clean instead. My son was left in a classroom with other students alone. Definitely, not what I signed up for. I am sad that I enrolled my child at this school. The first red flag for me is that the school is not named after someone who is a great educator. It is named after the founder, a shriveling woman that is alive and well. I am a teacher. It is not a career path for people that are self absorbed. Teaching requires a level of humility that puts students in the spotlight, which is why most schools are named for a mission or a person that has already proven themselves (like Mary McLeod Bethune or Maria Montessori). The first sign that the school operates in the interest of the founder is the school's name!
