Review THE OWNERS…read moreHAVE A SCHOOL AGED CHILD WHO THEY DON'T EVEN SEND THERE!!! THEY FEEL THE SCHOOL IS GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOUR KIDS BUT NOT THEIR OWN! I never write negative reviews but this is too important to ignore. When my children attended IVY LEAGUE SCHOOL there was a high rate of teachers openly showing disdain to students. There is no nurse at this school.The office staff haphazardly does the work of a nurse but are not medically trained. Worst teachers I have ever had the misfortune to deal with.Most are not certified or have masters.They are unhappy people who bring it to work with them and make a point to transfer that misery to the kids.Avoid this school.You will regret it.My children were very unhappy there. The ineptitude stretches from the teachers to the office staff.The owners have no background in education. Our children no longer attend this place and are better for it. AVOID! AVOID! AVOID!!!

The absolute worst school, they claim to want diversity, this is not true. The black and brown kids…read moreare not treated well and they know the difference. The owners have good intentions but the faculty and staff are racist to the core. My daughter was a student from age 2 to 12 years old. She is now in therapy trying the heal the years of damage from the teachers and parents. It breaks my heart to hear the stories of how bad she was treated. I feel so bad for compromising my daughters mental health for what I thought was a good education. Not a good school for Black & Brown kids. I will be happy to discuss my daughters story as her story is now part of her healing.

What a wonderful school. My daughter went here from 2 years to 4 years of aged and loved going each…read moreand every day. The teachers are nurturing and caring. You can really tell they enjoy educating children. Class sizes are small giving them the opportunity to get to know each and every child. The programs they have in place left her fully prepared for kindergarten. Highly recommend calling for a personalized tour.

My son attended Building Blocks for two years. I have nothing but good things to say about this…read moreschool!!! I am actually so sad that he graduated and has moved onto kindergarten. I wish he could have stayed there forever lol

I need to start by saying how much appreciation I have for building blocks. When my oldest son was…read morediagnosed with adhd and I was informed by his doctor that he would benefit from an integrated preschool setting I called building blocks. I was told by several people in the community that it was a great place for children with developmental disabilities. I definitely made the right choice! He was lucky enough to have Miss Christi for the integrated pre k program. She is fantastic! Thanks to her he was able to move to a general education program for elementary school. When it was time to look for preschool for my other children I looked no further. My son was placed with Miss Christine for the 3s program. He really enjoyed going to her class. She always had wonderful activities and projects planned. She also helped me realize that he also needed some additional services. Thanks to her he is currently in Miss Amy's 4 year old integrated class and he is doing amazing! He is so excited to go to school each day and so eager to learn! He even knows his numbers and letters! My daughter also went to building blocks. She was in the toddler program with Miss Dawn. She is the type of child who doesn't separate easily but Miss Dawn made it happen!! By day three She was running into the classroom without looking back at me! I have never seen my daughter happier! Miss Dawn is the greatest toddler teacher in the world! My children have also received related services through building blocks. Miss Shannon was my older son's occupational therapist and I was overjoyed when I found out that she would be working with my younger son! He also receives physical therapy with Miss Amy and speech therapy with Miss Alexa. I cannot say enough about each of these women. I feel so lucky to have them in my corner. My children have grown so much and come so far due to their hard work and dedication. I would also like to mention the nursing staff. My daughter has epilepsy so you can imagine how nervous I was to send her to a program. Thanks to the amazing nursing staff I had no fear! They are so knowledgeable and they made me feel so comfortable! I knew that she was well taken care of at every moment!! Overall building blocks has exceeded all of my expectations. Every staff member including teachers, assistants, therapists and administrators have been nothing but kind and nurturing throughout this preschool experience. I am forever grateful to this wonderful school!!

I''m the parent of a Harbor graduate and I can''t say enough about the excellent education and…read moreacademic foundation my child received. Harbor Country Day is all about educating the whole child with teachers and staff who care, small classes that stimulate thought, and a community focused on children''s character and leadership development. Two aspects we particularly liked were the inclusion of foreign language beginning in early grades (now Mandarin), and the inclusive athletics program that emphasizes teamwork and good sportsmanship. I highly recommend Harbor Country Day School.
