Private Schools

Terrible place for children

I really loved it here. The staff is excellent. If it weren't for my job changing my work schedule on me my daughter would still be going here. She was at a second grade level on everything upon exciting kindergarten. She was doing 3 Digit Borrow Subtraction - Regrouping worksheets, reading at about 3rd grade level. I mean, what kindergartner fully understands the scientific method?? My daughter went here for preschool and kindergarten. As a comparison, they are about 2 grade levels on average ahead of public school. Of course with Montessori schools, your child learns at their own pace which to me is excellent.

This is an excellent school where kids learn the love of Jesus in all they do.

We onderful

Family Learning Center is wonderful, I have two boys (2 and 4 years) who love going to school, each morning they look forward to being there. I enjoy the peace of mind knowing they are well taken care of and are happy to go to school. All the teachers are very friendly and great with the kids, I see the teamwork amongst them and appreciate the love and joy they have in working with kids. I have seen growth in my children and love that they have such a desire to learn. I highly recommend FLC.

Best school i was ever at

Ample parking and I feel I belong in this church. Given that it is my first time to go there. A lot of smiling face which is very contagious.

Back when we first joined the school in 4th grade I wrote this review - they do have homework now and are preparing them for high school.... My daughter has blossomed socially and academically here. (Not in the traditional academic way, since we don't have grades yet) When we came to Highland Hall, my daughter had closer friends in the 2 days she was here than she did at her old school over a period of 6 1/2 years. Academically she is much more interested in what she is learning and actually brings up things she has learned in conversation. She also struggles with visual processing and was not a big reader, but now I have to force her to stop reading her book and go to sleep. I attribute this to having a teacher that gives them free reading time in class when available. When she gets to read around her friends, it's like a book club. Who's reading what and if they are reading the same book, not to give up spoilers. My daughter couldn't be happier. Beats her crying almost every night like before.

My family has been at Heschel for over ten years. I have two very different children and Heschel has been able to meet both of their needs. It is a place that is academically rigorous but also considered with creating successful human beings. My oldest son just graduated and started high school. He is unbelievably prepared academically and is absolutely able to advocate for himself in his new school environment. His teachers at Heschel always set him up for success and were available to help along the way. My son is also concerned with the world around him and takes on leadership roles in the community as a result of all of his experiences at Heschel. My daughter has had a beautiful transition to middle school. Having been through middle school once before, I am surprised that it actually is better than before (I thought it was great to start)! I believe this is due to the new middle school director who emphasizes life and study skills and is intent on teaching the kids how to be resilient. Heschel is not just a school. Rather, it is a true community. I do not live close to Heschel and some mornings resent my drive. But then I get there and see the smiling teachers in the carpool line and the way my kids jump out of the car to the get the day started and I remember why my family chose Heschel.

My name nice goes to vally school i love this school
