Once we found a house, it was no longer the best option for us. We switched my 1st grader to Berry in February, and she has just blossomed! She is reading better, less stressed, and doing SO good!

Eva Turner is a small neighborhood based school. We have a great staff with little changeover (which certainly benefits the kids) Some of the best teachers and staff - Mrs McGowan and Mrs Hoza (K, with over 30 years experience) Mrs Scott and Miss Michelle (Pre-K) Ms Matari (art) Mrs Rios (Parent Liasion) Mrs Kazim (PTO pres) Mrs Penny (school secretary) Mrs Cherry (counselor) Mrs Wray (library) Mrs Freundel (reading) Mrs Corsey (speech) Our parent volunteers (which includes me!) are awesome. Volunteers help all the teachers and staff - which free's the teachers to focus on the kids. There are plenty of things for volunteers to help with (so keep this in mind with your own childs school) Eva Turner has several after school clubs: Art, Chess Math team, Destination Imagination, Just Say No and Band. We are a Title 1 school - which is great for everyone. The school offers several parent classes every year and activities for families. There are only 2 buses and several daycare vans this year - the rest are walkers. Next year we are getting an additional 140 kids, so there's going to be buses. (but our school will still have less than 500 total) We have recently had upgrades to our school (a beautiful wing including new K and Pre-K classrooms and kitchen) smartboards in the classrooms (what a great concept). Our school is poor, 75% qualify for free lunch and we are always in need of donations. Ooops, now it seems like I writing a bad review but we've been here 5 years so far and I wouldn't change it. if we could.

Happy Faces Early Learning Center has provided child care and summer programs for my 7 year old…read moregrand-daughter for years, she continues to be excited about going there, and I wouldn't trust her with anyone else. We have tried other daycare centers but none even come close to the program and staff at Happy Faces ELC. The certified staff takes continuing education courses in early childhood education/development to maintain their credentials and they're so knowledgeable, very professional, firm but fair, and all the kids have fun and learn about all kinds of things. A normal school day for children is to arrive bright and early between 6:00 - 7:00am, they play in whatever educational center they chose (computers, housekeeping, blocks, library area, etc) until it's time to go to school. Mr. Tim drives the children to school in the Happy Faces new 14 passenger van. When they get out of school, Mr. Tim is there to pick them up and take them safely back to Happy Faces. When they arrive, they have time to wind down and eat a snack, then they start their homework. After homework is finished, the children enjoy free time playing outside with the other children, entertaining themselves in one of the learning centers, reading a book or playing an educational game the teacher has prepared/set-up. Happy Faces ELC's Summer Program is exciting, educational and most of all fun! When I pick her up, she just can't stop talking about all the exciting things she did that day. Our grand-daughter especially likes the field trips to: bowling, skating, parks, museums, swimming, movies and more!!! On non-field trip days, Happy Faces has special guests stop by to educate and entertain the children like: a mobile petting zoo, clowns, magicians, police officers, fire fighters, and more! Happy Faces ELC is so exciting and educational that my grand-daughter won't go anywhere else! We love Happy Faces ELC, we wouldn't dream of going anywhere else and the staff are so friendly and professional !!!! We give Happy Faces 2 thumbs up!!!!

When my daughter first saw the happy face outside when riding past, she told me she wanted to go there. I have never stepped into a more professional, clean & safer daycare before. Even the ones I've worked at weren't professional enough for me. Proud to say I am no longer there. My child cried to go to Happy Faces. Even if she was sick....she just loved it there. She sees Ms. Angela in passing and runs to her. It was such a pleasure to be a part of Happy Faces family. Ms. Thompson

Our 3 boys all went to this little awesome Christian School on Main St in Dumfries, VA…read more They really teach the children both curriculum wise and the Christian way. If you want to instil christ like character, respect and obedience and great ethics in your children, then this is the school to bring them. You can ask any of the public and private schools that have kids from WPA and they will tell you that kids from WPA are well behaved and always a grade or two ahead of their peers. They really teach these kids. We were blessed to have found the school. The teachers are awesome 0 This school really knows how to train children. I highly recommend Word Performance to anyone who's children are giving them headaches and need them to be trained in the Christian way and learn great work ethics. Anyone who wants their children to learn how to treat others, respect, love like Christ teaches in the Bible then, this is the school for you.
