She is now in Kindergarten and was extremely prepared for Kinder and I credit Rhoades for giving her such a strong academic foundation. She still talks about her preK teacher Miss Roseann who is wonderful. My younger daughter is currently at Rhoades and is thriving. She says "school is my favorite thing to do" and adores her teacher Miss Danielle. Miss Danielle is so warm and loving and makes the kids feel special. She is always filling their day with fun, creative activities and makes learning fun. The kids are exposed to so much more than a standard curriculum - for example they have Spanish, Mandarin, French, music, science, and even cooking. The other families have been great and it is a really wonderful community that we are thankful to be apart of.

I had 2 daughters who used to attend the school; I emphasize, "used to."…read moreMy younger in the infant room would come home with a rash at least once a week. I'd leave her with a bag of her things and nearly every day she wouldn't come home with everything unless I checked and asked for them specifically. Then I'd have to wait while they hunted down her bottle, her shoes, her jacket. I'd also had her handed to me twice while wearing a soiled diaper to drive home. I was presumably supposed to change her myself in the car. About 80% of the time I picked up my older daughter (pre-k) they were sitting in front of the TV. So much for Montessori learning; it wasn't even educational, just Disney. My daughter told me her teachers, "were mean." Coming from a 4 year old I, at first, took it with a grain of salt, but after repeatedly overhearing her teacher and the director (Ms. Ivy) yell at, belittle and openly mock children as I came to pick them up I realized she was right. Ms. Ivy wasn't even her teacher, but I could hear her through the walls of her kindergarten class. My daughter, admittedly, used to have some behavioral issues (extreme tantrums) which we were working on at home. As soon as she started attending they were getting worse and worse. Now, only a short time sinse she changed schools, her behavior has made a complete 180°. I've been using the same tactics at home and trying to work with her teachers at both schools. One school made it worse, the other has worked hard and the results are shining brightly. Just to prove my point, during my children's second to last week before I removed them (because you need a long notice before you leave or you have to pay anyway), I was told they were going to be spraying for mosquitoes over the weekend.(They were a problem). On that Friday as I was going to pick up my girls, before I entered the building, I noticed my older daughter's teacher outside with an unmarked spray bottle squirting the bushes, when I asked her what she was doing she said she was spraying for mosquitoes. When I asked what she was spraying she said it was water and vinegar.......... need anything else be said? I will provide that there were 2 teachers there that were great. When Ms. Elizabeth was in the toddler room I never had any problems with my younger one, I don't think she was the normal toddler teacher. Same with Ms. Maggie but I only met in the last month my children were there. She fixed all the problems in my toddler's class, but I couldn't trust my older daughter's teachers or the director. True garbage.

All of the teachers are engaging and my son loves them! He runs out onto the playground in the morning to see his teachers. Miss Vicky, Miss Roxy, Miss Jesenia, Miss Mery Miss Brie, Miss Tiffany are excellent. Pacific was also fantastic helping potty train my son and honestly they had more patience with him than I did! My son is very active and quite the handful but they never treat it like a problem instead they help him use his energy in positive ways. The Director, Miss Jessica, has really gone above and beyond accommodating our requests. If you live in San Elijo or surrounding areas Pacific is the best choice. At night my 2 year old tells me "I want to go to school." I say ok let's go to sleep and you can go to school in the morning and he wants to go to school so badly he lies right down! What more could you ask for as a parent than your kid telling you they want to go to school.

The teachers create a warm and nurturing environment where learning feels like play. Our children have grown so much in confidence, independence, and social skills since joining.
