The students are fine and you're likely to make some friends. The education is good and they have plenty of extra curriculum classes. And overall you will get what the average student is looking for in a school.

From a senior who has been here since the lockdown, don't send your kid to this school. Sure, I…read morehave had wonderful teachers here, but it honestly sucks. If you complain to the principal over serious issues, he doesn't care, he doesn't even respond to you. There was a code yellow like last year and it should've been a code red cause people brought weapons on property and they wanted to cover it up. Other students and myself are the only reason parents got a call the NEXT day about it. There's too many details to share here. Even today I am terrified when the announcements sound comes over the speakers if it is at a random time. Many people at our school are aware of the stoners and vapers and they don't do anything about it. It's so bad that you can't go into certain bathrooms because those are the 'smoke spots'. As I did mention, I have had some wonderful teachers, so it just sucks that I have to complain about the teachers here as well. For this one teacher, in context (which doesn't make it much better) we talked about humanistic psychology and a criticism of it is that they are over accepting. Basically the teacher stated that "so if you ___ 4 year olds." Yeah, we all looked at each other disgusted like "Did he really say that? That's disgusting." That same teacher has also made very rude and snarky remarks to students. A very very controlling person. Some days I don't wanna go to school because I'm scared he'll make remarks about me and humiliate me in front of the class, he's already done it to me. After lunch, I think based on my experience, the upstairs bathrooms are a hit or miss because they are either locked all class period during 3rd period or open after 20 minutes. So if you really need to use it, Aunt Flo has arrived, or whatever, you're screwed until the end of the day if you're lucky enough to get to a bathroom. Honestly, if you want better education for your kids: go somewhere else. Maybe even go to Finland. Overall, can't wait to graduate because this has been a rollercoaster if the rollercoaster was barely on the track, had no seatbelts, and was on fire. Edit: Another thing, they just told us a week ago that we could be staying till 4:30pm for the exam, which would be ok, IF they told us like a month ago. So now the teacher basically said to just take that day off from work, for students who work, when it is probably too late to say anything. But the problem is, I have an off campus that day (which I worked s hard to get) and the purpose for that off campus is to help my dad because of medical issues. They literally told me I can't do anything about it so now I have to figure out 1. How to get home 2. Where to put my stuff 3. How my dad will get the help he needs.

Not that great of a school. I had a good time here as a GATE student. Most teachers GATE or not…read morewere nice and really not that strict. The school did give me mental health problems, but that's mainly my fault for not doing some of my work and leaving me in a rabbit hole. Kids are kind of mean and cocky, something you would see in a private school. I was bullied for not catching dodgeballs zooming past my head at 100mph. The GATE students have their own hierarchy that works mostly the same as the normal students, but it's kinda different. The whole "popular kids" thing is really messed up. No, Alex, just because you hit a ball with a stick and laugh like a monkey should not make you popular. The dean was a little mean to me, but we are on good terms now. The main school does not respect my religion and beliefs. They laughed at me for wearing a cross. If you get put into a cubby, they WILL forget about you. I don't recommend dating anyone because let's be honest-- it's all idiot teenagers in one big building. I've dated twice and both of those experiences sucked booty. The weird gay kids are treated like babies, and it creates an unfair school environment. I don't care if someone made fun of you for being gay, move on. Some good things is the electives, teachers, and lunch times, but most of it is negative. Some staff are rude, but only some. The "phone away all day" is bs because I've seen kids walking with their phones without consequences. Teachers also can be passive aggressive and only treat the popular kids like actual students as someone who has experienced that. That's really all, and if you are looking into this school, I only recommend it if you are in the GATE program.

We deeply regret recounting our concerning experience with Discoveries Preschool. As professionals…read morewith a background in education and truancy enforcement, our expectations for childcare standards were not met at this establishment. Following our daughter's weekend illness and her subsequent approval to return to daycare on October 31, she endured an entire day of isolation without any notification, a clear violation of the center's policy. Tiff, the Assistant Director, provided documentation that raised alarming inconsistencies with state-mandated reporting requirements. Despite being dropped off at 7:36 am and picked up at 4:30 pm, we received no communication, a direct contradiction to their policy that mandates parents be notified within an hour if a child is isolated due to illness. Furthermore, the provided documentation indicated our daughter was offered water only once at 9:25 am, with no other fluids offered throughout the day. Tiff's speculative explanations, including the possibility of teething, and her overall lack of accountability raise questions about the accuracy of the records. Compounding our dissatisfaction, our attempts to communicate with Gina, the owner, have been unsuccessful. Tiff's lack of knowledge and accountability as the Assistant Director is disconcerting. We prepaid for the month, but upon removing our daughter from the center on October 31, Tiff mentioned only a one-week refund, which we find ethically questionable. Additionally, the documentation stated that they offered our daughter lunch, but it claimed she refused. However, when we checked her lunchbox, her uncrustable sandwich was unopened, indicating neglect and raising doubts about whether she was served her lunch. In light of these concerns and potential breaches of childcare standards, we have filed a formal report with the state authorities to investigate for possible child danger. Tiff's suggestion that our daughter's isolation might be due to a runny nose, combined with the apparent lack of diversity at the center, leaves us deeply concerned. The failure to address our legitimate concerns, provide a comprehensive refund for the remaining period, and the potential neglect of our daughter's nutritional needs underscore the unprofessionalism we experienced. We share our story with the hope that other parents exercise caution in selecting childcare centers, considering the serious issues we encountered at Discoveries Preschool. Our daughter's well-being, adherence to ethical practices, and the provision of diverse and inclusive care should be non-negotiable in any childcare setting. (If anyone is needing comfort in seeing our documentation I am more than happy to provide)

The staff is amazing and the resources they offer the students seems endless. They provide tons of correspondence with parents so you don't feel out of the loop, while also encouraging students to be independent. There are many positives, and only a few negatives. You have to be willing and able to get your kids to and from school if they don't drive. No school buses going up there! Also, although you don't pay for the tuition, you still have to cover the cost of text books and course codes. However, there are scholarships and other assistance that is available. All in all, great program!
