We attended Goddard with our 2 boys - 3 and 1 and would give this school less than 1 star if…read moreallowed, as we would not recommend to any parent who wants their child in safe learning environment. It was a matter of days before our oldest came home with bite marks on several occasions, in addition to other injuries at the hands of other students. Most recently he was hit in the face that resulted in a swollen handprint on the side of his face, and kicked in the face during story time the very next day which split his lip open. Our youngest - 18 months at the time - was repeatedly bit in his classroom, leaving very defined and swollen bite marks, some of which broke the skin. He was scratched across his face and neck, and given a black eye by another child who hit him with a toy. Several bites and other injuries went unnoticed by teachers who had no idea our child was injured when we inquired about what had lead to the incidents. These incidents happened in the matter of 3 weeks. The administration of this school is defiant in their approach to ensuring the safety of kids in their classroom. We repeatedly asked for changes to be made to prevent our kids from getting hurt, only to be met with opposition and called liars by the assistant director Kaitlyn Japikse and owner Mark Reinhart. The teachers who assisted us were promptly reassigned to different rooms that were not of their choosing out of retaliation from the owner. Mark and his staff do not follow any disciplinary action plans, document the children who cause injury and refuse to remove kids from the room due to their belief it does not reinforce positive behaviors and violent behavior is "developmentally / age appropriate". Mark will also tell you to take your kids to a different school / disenroll you if you do not agree with their approach that severe injuries in their classrooms are developmentally appropriate and the result of normal childhood behavior. The disgraceful treatment of families by Mark goes against everything this school states they advocate for and we would not recommend this school to anyone.

We were so excited to start our boys at Goddard School. Until about 6 months in for our first and 3…read moremonths in with our second, we were asked to leave the school. Our childern were getting hurt almost daily. They were bit, hit, scratched by other students. Our youngest was only 18 months old and couldn't communicate, most of the bites were going unnoticed by the school and when asked about it, the teachers or administrators couldn't tell us what happened. Incident reports were not filed and the biting students parents were not notified. We were also told that the other parents wouldn't be told about the incident unless the skin was broken, because they didn't want that student to have a negative connotation with school. How does my child feel when they are afraid to go to school because they are getting hurt by those that are supposed to be their "friends"? Our last day there, my oldest was kicked in the face left with a busted lip during circle time because the other child tripped over my child's legs. And the aggressor was just left to continue this behavior because according to the administrator, these children do not have impulse control and are unable to understand their actions. Meanwhile they are potty training these 3-4 year olds? When asking for help and assistance time and time again, we were the ones that were asked to leave. The administration continually asked us for our suggestions on how to handle the situations and while we are not the professionals in early childhood education, recommended additional resources and were immediately fought with talks of budgets and how that's not possible. The owner offered to refund us our money so we left (granted we paid a fee to get on the waiting list for a year for this program) we were not refunded our fee, our refund was "prorated" in a way that benefited only the owner. The ratios for "student to teacher" is insane and leads to a chaotic, stressful environment for both the teachers and the students. The owner retaliates against any teacher (and parents) who feel differently than him. He moves teachers to other rooms they do not want to be in or suggests they leave. He has blocked us from the Facebook business page so we are not able to leave reviews there.

The priceless education and character formation offered at GSCM provides my children with an incredible foundation as both students and people moving forward in this world. The teachers at GSCM work to offer individualized experiences for each student, meeting the child where he or she is at, and working with his or her interests to make learning exciting. Students experience cultural enrichment, as well as a deep understanding and love for the Catholic faith. Outdoor exploration, and a keen sense of a child's need for adventure in the natural world are just some of the key components that GSCM offers to those who attend. We could not be more pleased with Good Shepherd Catholic Montessori, not only as a school, but more like a second home for our children!

I've waited a long time before finally publishing this review. I actually wrote it a while back,…read morebut decided against putting it up, because it could have directly affected my job (and not in a good way). But recently I left that job, and after a lot of thought and consideration I think this review needs to be seen. Let me begin first by telling you what my job was. I was the director for a learning center. A tutoring center to be more precise. While we did a number of things, we mainly worked with students who were struggling in school, mostly with reading or math. Now part of my job as the director was to reach out to the various schools and school districts in our area and try to provide them with either free resources or work with the teachers of the students that we had coming to our center, to see what we could all accomplish together for the child. And that brings us to Clermont Northeastern Elementary School. I know this page is for the entire school district, but based on my experience mostly with the elementary school and with some interaction with the other two schools, I think this review will fit here just fine. Of all the area schools, the vast majority of kids that came to see us came from this district, specifically the elementary school. And these kids weren't just a little behind. These kids were years behind. And yet the school kept passing them. When I met with the principle, she didn't show any interest in free material that I was offering to help the students that could be used by the whole school. Teachers were very difficult to get in contact with and when I was able to, it was clear that most of them cared little for their students. We had one student who was in fifth grade, and he couldn't even read at a kindergarten level. He couldn't even read the words "the" and "one." Basic stuff that all kids should know by the third month of elementary school. And he was in fifth grade and they were going to move him up to sixth! When I contacted his teacher at school she said his grades were just fine (which they were) and that he did all his work. I would later find out that they had categorized him as needing extra assistance. So the standards were set so low for him that he passed everything he needed to, but he still couldn't read. It was outrageous. When I questioned his regular and special reading teacher on this, the response was, "He passed the state minimums (again these were the ones that were lowered tremendously to the point where he couldn't fail) and as long as he passes the school gets to keep all its funding." This type of response and attitude was not only shocking, but pathetic. And while this is just one example, it is one of many different instances that occurred during my time there. Ohio has open enrollment. Which basically means you can send your kid to any school you want, so long as there is room there. I would urge parents of Clermont Northeastern Elementary to take their kids out of there, and find someplace else if possible. Mahalo, and avoid.

The superintendent would not talk to the mother in person and I was with her as the grandmother!…read more We went to his office. He called her the next day and I listen to the conversation as they talked; he was very rude and short in conversation... " You get letters from Dr. For ever single day he was absent and we will talk about passing him!" "WE DON'T GET FUNDING FROM STATE IF HE'S NOT HERE" This is sad...they failed him and are making him repeat the 7th grade knowing he knows the work and he is a very smart, good student! We can not get the letter from the Dr. Because she left the practice about 6 months ago...the new Dr. At the same office she use to practice in says its a preexisting condition and he can not write the letters and he can't tell us where she went to practice. So they can't get the money for him and he will suffer and have to repeat the same grade! I can promise you he will not go to that BELOW GRADE SCHOOL next year! Their funding is more important then his life. I believe if they were a par school they wouldn't need the funding! I also feel if they can't have an open door policy, they have something to hide!! What goes around comes around and from what I've been told they are close to being shut down! Karma gets you every time!

It was uncalled for and rude to scream like that even while the male employee sitting by the scanner watched as my husband scanned 4 different cards and told her he seen us scan in. This happened on the same day that my daughter and I just walked out of the restroom and a teenaged guy came walking into the women's locker room like he belonged there (June 16 or 17). The mother followed a minute behind and was complaining that their huge cooler on wheels hit the corner every time they walked through the locker rooms (so how many times has this guy walked through!?). It's disturbing to me that this is a vulnerable place for women yet this clearly male presenting 16-17 year old was comfortable walking in. The women's locker room entrance is right in front of the desk, how did the screaming employee not say a word to him but yelled at me to triple check that I signed in. I will not have to keep constant eyes on my daughter while in the locker room. The place is small, the rules are many, and the other patrons aren't ideal. Some people there expect special treatment and act out of they don't receive it. A lot of mothers dress super inappropriate and don't watch the 4+ kids they always have with them. The weight/machine room is small and people are extra rude by not wiping down anything when they're done and kids often treat the machines like toys. The pool is nice but a lot of kids (the ones being ignored by parents) aren't very well behaved and families very much enjoy blocking the pool stairs. For the cost of a membership, I expected more. I would like to see better enforcement of pool rules (indoor and outdoor), a larger workout room with more/better workout equipment, a watchful eye for the dressing room, open gym time, and just an expansion overall so it's not so cramped all of the time.

Equipment still out of service. Less hours open than a 1960s bank. TV is always on Fox News.read more
