I went to AsheBridge in June 2018 to enroll my son. The costs, as a private school, are higher than…read moreaverage but I was willing to pay this. Our tour was very brief and I was not introduced to the teachers or told much about the daily schedules. Still, I was in a rush to find childcare for my son, so I asked them about his egg allergy. He is allergic to eggs, it's a medical condition and I can provide proof of this. Well, here's where things went awry. The woman got squeamish and was like "ohhh, I don't know what we would do then, I'm not sure how we could help him". I examined the menu and only 2 or 3 things in their entire breakfast/lunch/snack list had egg products to begin with, I asked if he could get something from another day on those days. She said sometimes they don't actually serve what is on that list "because they might not send that." Ok, I then suggested I send him with labeled foods from home like yogurt pouches... something so benign nobody is allergic. "Oh no we don't allow outside foods." So my only option is my child starves those days? Is he really the only child you've ever come across with an allergy? You don't have a procedure for this? She told me the outside food policy, ironically, was to protect allergic children. I proposed that I would submit a list of his potential foods to them in advance, and never stray from that. She was hearing none of it. Just kept repeating "no outside foods" like a robot. We left it at she would investigate and call me. She did not. I called her though. I called several times over the next 3 weeks and no callback or response. When I finally caught her on the line, she told me they could not accommodate my son's egg allergy. I said "so you are declining to offer him enrollment on the basis of his medical condition?" "Uh no umm.. no no no". She backtracked and after some back and forth, said she "misunderstood" and asked me to send her the foods I proposed I bring in, so she could show the director. My son is a sweet little toddler who loves everybodyHe just can't eat eggs. If AsheBridge won't just NOT feed him eggs, that's obviously not the place for him anyway. For what it's worth, he's now at another nearby private school and the convo was as simple as "he's allergic to eggs" "oh no problem! We will feed him something else when there's eggs on the menu!". UPDATE: The response from the owner to my review is a blatant lie. I was never afforded the opportunity to bring my son labeled, store bought foods for lunch, and NEVER suggested that I bring him homemade foods. I was told "due to the fact that we are a private school, we can make choices like no outside foods to protect our community of children". No outside foods, and no alternatives from their own menu meant my son would not be able to be accommodated, I asked repeatedly for clarification and ultimately was told yes, that is true. Only after I threatened to write this review, was this recanted. It was truly sad because my son deserved the opportunity to be treated equally.

That curriculum is amazing." My son loves his teachers and was so happy to see them again after vacation. He often says "I will tell my teachers about this." He is eager to please them. The Quality: the teachers know what they are doing. The kids jump around in the morning and sit quietly during lunch. It doesn't feel chaotic but under control, safe and calm. There are free and paid specials - free music and gym are free. There are also paid dance classes (Little People's Creative Workshop) and Soccer (Soccer shots). My son loves all of these and it's certainly convenient for us. My son has started really looking at books on his own, recognizing letters, writing letters etc. We are very happy with his progress and his teachers. They have a big screen in his class which they use for yoga, music, lessons etc. Value: It's not cheap, for sure. But many people don't know that religious-sponsored schools do not have to adhere to safety/quality standards which is one of the reasons why they are cheaper. My son is safe, happy and healthy in school. They provide meals but you can opt out if you'd like. They provide generally healthy options for kids and my son likes to eat there. It's a great school.

We had to pull our kid out unfortunately, but for personal reasons nothing to do with the daycare. We're very sad because we loved Ms Felicia in the infant room. There's an app to communicate with the teachers and to watch the video feed if you want to which came in handy when I wanted to see when I could get him if he was sleeping or not. I'm sad that when we are able to go back to daycare we won't be able to do it since they won't accept part time kids anymore. I can't vouch for the other rooms just the infant room but honestly the whole staff is really nice and welcoming.

The gym had bleachers although the basketball team staff told us they wouldn't have any. So, there was plenty of seating available for families. The only issue I had was that there was no snack or drink machines there. I know all schools don't have them for their students, but a lot of them that I've been in do. It would've been nice being that they have i9sports games there & there are no concession stands. Parents get parched & hangry being there all day without a little something to wet our whistles & calm our growling stomachs, and we aren't allowed to bring in outside food/drinks.

Just like at any school, you won't love every single thing about anywhere but Endeavor gives its families very little to complain about. My only word of caution would be that if your child falls outside the range of "normal" or learning in a traditional way, Endeavor might not be the right fit as it does not have the resources to help those kids but I have seen them taking steps to try to improve in this area and hope in the future they'll be able to be more accommodating. Honestly though, our public school refused to do anything to help my daughter despite her having an obvious need so I have zero faith in any school to spend money/resources on the needs of one child. Overall, this really is the best school in Wake County.

AMAZING! Hands down would recommend this place 100 times over. I found out about Renaissance after…read morea mama overheard my conversation about pulling my child out of another preschool and approached me, stating that her children went to Renaissance years ago and she could not rave about it enough. I was very nervous about enrolling our children in school at all after some of the things we previously experienced (was considering homeschool). I figured I would at least tour after her glowing recommendation. Long story short, my children run to school every. single. day. They rarely remember to say bye. They adore this place. Renaissance has far exceeded my expectations. The teachers and staff...chef's kiss, they always go above and beyond. They are incredibly nurturing, always appear to be very present, intentional, and joyful but also firm (the children love and respect them). The way they teach these children to advocate for themselves and simultaneously care for others while appropriately processing social situations is really impressive, the parent community they have helped foster is awesome, and communication with parents has been great. The cultural diversity amongst staff and the celebration of cultural diversity is phenomenal. The displays they create for the different cultural heritage months, the on-site field trips, the programs, the festivals... Their emphasis is not academics, though in my experience they do ensure your child is on grade level. However, your child will likely walk away from the school with social skills and a general appreciation for others that will far exceed those of their peers. In the tour, the admissions coordinator said that was their bread and butter, and they really delivered. I am so grateful for the mama that introduced me to this beautiful place... my children have blossomed.

Sterling is an exceptional school for academics and quality of day to day learning experiences for children. it performs in the top of NC schools. My children's teachers are nurturing and pedagogically skilled. Independence is facilitated in children, curiosity is valued, opportunities for practice to master content are a priority and drive achievement. Montessori pedagogy supports engaging teaching and learning based in the ways children actually developmentally acquire knowledge. Parents are involved, classrooms are beautiful, well resourced and organized. It's a healthy learning environment (better than most) and I am saying this from being in more than my share of schools on the east coast for over a decade.
