GYMNASIUM REVIEW ONLY:…read more My Daughter is currently enrolled in a fall mini-club via Blast Volleyball that is out of Gordon School. Kudos to Gordon for seeing an a opportunity to support kids athletics and make a little money! The school is nestled off a major road, in a suburban neighborhood. Not a large parking lot, but enough spots that we require. Cute little playground. The facility is very clean with ample bathrooms (they have baby wipes and offer free lady products in the bathrooms!) The gymnasium is in great condition with bleachers. Great space for your kids to practice.

They have a room for kids 3yrs and younger and a room for older kids but they merge all of the kids throughout the day to play as a group. They have a playground and the day is structured with lots of activities. My daughter loves it here and she loves her teachers. I highly recommend Building Blocks to all families in search of child day care. I'm a huge fan!

Barrington is a suburban, residential town in Bristol County, Rhode Island located approximately 7…read moremiles southeast of Providence. It was founded by Congregationalist separatists from Swansea, Massachusetts and incorporated in 1717. We visit Barrington often to go shopping, as we ride through it while on the East Bay Bike path, or to eat at one of the many restaurants. The town is well known in Rhode Island as an affluent town with some of the best schools in the state. Barrington was ceded to the state of Rhode Island and merged into Warren in 1747, though it was later made into a separate town by the Rhode Island legislature. It was a sparsely developed, agricultural community until the arrival of brick making companies in the 1850s, which employed large numbers of French-Canadians and Italians. Historical sites provide examples of architectural and suburban development during various stages of the town's history, including the Allen-West House, Barrington Civic Center Historic District, and O'Bannon Mill. Nine sites in Barrington are listed under the National Register of Historic Places. The population of this town is about 17,000 people.

Our daughter attended this school from 2nd grade (began right before Covid) until 5th grade. The…read moreschool looks great inside which I now realize is where most of their money goes. 2nd grade was primarily online because of Covid and their DL program was terrible and did not adhere to their mission statement. The parents tried to work together to fix this and this is when we began to realize that parents have absolutely no voice at this school. Kids were starting to get kicked out as soon as their parents began advocating for them. They lost 4 students in 3rd grade, then 1 in fourth and 2 more in 5th including us. Safety is a major issue at this school. There are no crossing guards at drop off and pick up, the traffic is a nightmare by the school and there is no assistance getting in and out. Our daughter was almost hit by cars many times and the principal refused to address this. There is no security at recess and the school is in a very dangerous area. A stranger was permitted to approach the children at recess. Bullying is permitted and honestly enabled. The same child bullied multiple students including our daughter and still remains at the school. The school uses pictures of disabled students to promote and raise money while pretending to be inclusive. The school consistently breaks their own guidelines/rules and refuses to adhere to state mandates and guidelines. They accepted government funding for meals during Covid and then only handed out a small portion of the food, pocketing the rest of the funds. The teachers and head of school were aware but chose to do nothing. While there are a few good teachers at this school it is a corrupt and dangerous place with incompetent people in power.
