My child is…read morein 1st grade and there's always a weekly allotment of homework in reading, language arts, arithmetic and science. Children are educated in traditional subjects but also on how to improve their learning techniques. My child not only learns the subject matter but how to incorporate it into an applied knowledge of the world. There is also a huge sense of community involving everyone: parents, students, and faculty to become part of the Corlears community. It's impossible for us as parents to not actively engage and become part of the learning experience for our children. My youngest will be starting at Corlears next year. Many activities involve the entire school at different skill sets. Older children become mentors and the example for younger children. Children work independently in addition to learning how to function as part of a team. Teachers build report cards that transcend a letter grade. My child's final report card was 28 individualized pages of in depth information about strengths and weaknesses for all subjects. Now in the off months we work on weaknesses and improve with our goals of maximizing our child's potential for a better life.

My four year old told me earlier this month that Martin Luther King had said "no, no, no, no, no, no." When I asked about what she added, "He said all peole of all skin colors are the same!" I love reading bi-weekly detailed newsletters from my daughters teachers about what she learned and which motor skills she developed. A robust PA body and excellent ED help make this school the finest.

I too, am a white collar semi-older gentleman but I don't like to identify as that hehehehe. I also love this league so much because I get to see these cool gyms sprinkled throughout NYC that you would otherwise have no idea existed. This one is in the basement and others have been on upper floors, but some of these elementary/middle schools are BALLIN. Like DAMN, these gyms be nice af! I know what you must be wondering, but no, we didn't win. I had an open look from half court to win the game, and it just barely hit rim. It was one of those where it felt great leaving my hand too. I'd way rather it have feel terrible leaving my hand, god was just playing with me on that one smh. It's been a tough season if I can be quite frank with you, my dear reader.

My child was constantly getting removed from classes and we were being told she couldn't sit still in a Montessori which was odd. We kept having constant meetings about him and it just became overwhelming for her and our family. We eventually had to remove her from the school and go into public. The teachers are lovely but are not trained to deal with all types of children which is sad. We also had all services in place for her and with that they still needed help to handle a 1st grader. My best decision was to remove her from a school that kept correcting everything about her.

We are so thrilled to have found Academy of Excellence for our 3 year old son, Alden. It has been a…read morefantastic place for him to flourish socially, and, as his first school-like setting, has shown that school is a supportive and happy place to be. Dorota and her team of teachers and assistants are warm, flexible and understanding. They go the extra mile in every sense of the phrase, even hosting special guests throughout the year and inviting parents to visit for special events so we can share and celebrate what our children are doing at school. The pre school curriculum seems like a perfect balance of learning and play. Our son has learned SO much this past year that I attribute almost entirely to AOE. At 3.5, he knows all his letters, numbers, is writing his name clearly, and is drawing pictures of people and objects. He comes home nearly every day with something new to share, and over the course of his first year there, the impression that learning and is exciting and fun. The kids also spend a good part of the day playing and working together and I have seen our son blossom socially because of this. We truly couldn't ask for anything more from a preschool.

Do not recommend…read more For the tuition paid the school would be expected to offer 1) a more structured curriculum 2) better facility for the students 3) and lastly ,be a reliable resource to parents and students. The school has been unexpectedly closed MULTIPLE days during this 2023-24 school year due to facilities issues. The students and parents are notified with less than 24hrs that the school is simply closed, not once but multiple times. There's is no make-up of the curriculum missed, no reimbursement of after-school paid classes. While our daughter had lovely teachers and received a beautiful care from the school's Nurse Ms Cathy, the administration is not a match. Despite the challenges listed above and lack of resolution/ commitment, the school submitted a 11% increase of the tuition for the next year.

While looking for options for my child, we looked into this school and were interviewed by them. My…read morechild was selected, but we decided to go with Stevens for various reasons: 1. If you look at the inspection report of this school on the nj.gov website, there are several basic safety concerns cited there which worried me 2. The staff and teachers we met could not clearly articulate the school's philosophy in terms of teaching- it is neither progressive, nor traditional, nor part of a system like the Montessori. 3. The classes lack completely in diversity in an unexpected manner. About 90% of the students in the class that we visited were of South Asian or Asian decent. This is not a racist comment, because my child is half Indian and I would have the same concern if the class was 90% white or 90% Hispanic. In a country like ours, every child needs to be exposed to as much diversity as possible at an early level.

Our family's experience with Montclair Cooperative School was devastating. After touring and being…read moreassured that our son -- a twice-exceptional, academically gifted child on the Autism spectrum -- could be supported, we submitted his records. Almost immediately, the admissions office reversed course and told us they would not move forward with his application because of his disability, saying he would be "better served" in public school. His academic strengths and test scores were ignored. This is not just disappointing, it is discriminatory. The school has accepted hundreds of thousands of dollars in taxpayer-funded grants and forgivable loans, which means it is legally bound under the ADA, Section 504, IDEA, and the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination to provide equal access. Instead, it shut the door on our son because of his diagnosis. We pursued every available appeal, including with the State of New Jersey. Even though the state acknowledged the facts, they declined to pursue the case further -- not because discrimination wasn't present, but because they lacked confidence in prevailing in court. Families should know that if your child has a disability, this school may exclude them rather than work with you. For a school that markets itself as progressive and community-oriented, our experience was the opposite. Parents of neurodiverse children: proceed with extreme caution.
