Private Schools

Since leaving public school and coming to Crown of Life my girls now LOVE school. The difference was obvious to them. As a 4th and 6th grader they both said to me that they are no longer just a number. The teachers know them as individuals and the classes are so small that if they are having trouble in a certain subject the teachers recognize and and help them understand it. They are never left behind. Its such a bonus to be taking a foreign language in grammar school too! What an edge up they will have. The teachers are not only kind and caring but also energetic and exciting. My kids have never said they were bored. They are challenged daily in academics and personal growth. The best part is the Faith that this school is fostering the kids with, and my girls enjoy this part the most. They love that they are surrounded by other faithful people.

It's an HONOR to have my daughter attend FWC! It's her home away from home with extend family(FWC staff) for the last 8 years. My daughter started FWC in Pre-K, now in the 6th grade with plans to graduate from FWC. My daughter feels loved, respected and able to reach out to ANY staff with ease and confidence for support and encouragement. The entire team at FWC is AMAZING and I LOVE to see God shinning through them, into Jasmine (my daughter) and all the children lives at FWC. I see them as Angels, disguised as teachers to mentor, educate and share The Great Commission with our children whom will go out into the world and make a difference for God's Kingdom as they experience an overflow and abundance. I can't imagine my daughter at any other school or doing life without FWC team!

Great place to send your kids! Very nice teachers! Highly recommend this place!!

The teachers go above and beyond to make sure my children feel loved & cared for. The curriculum and enthusiasm from the teachers using it has made such a huge impact on my daughter who is a pre-k student. Not only has she learned how to count higher, identify her letters & begin to read, her teachers have taught her about respect, caring for others, eating healthy & overall, how to be a good person. I am so lucky to have found such a great place for my children & am completely impressed by the work my daughter's teachers have done. I am 100% confident she is not only ready for kindergarten, she is ahead & I give all credit and thanks to The Goddard school & Ms.Dawney & Ms.Loretta.

The teachers don't take their jobs seriously, nor do they prepare the student for college. "Fusion Academy" is a business, not a school. Trust me, don't waste your time with these people--it's not worth it!!!

This was my old school and it was great and I miss it

What can I say about this school? Other than I am so glad we found Makarios! It has been a godsend for my twin sisters, I definitely wish this was around when I was younger!

I hate it

My child was expelled at age two because he wouldn’t nap. This frustrated the teacher and children respond as they’re treated. The director let me know the office wasn’t able to keep staff with my child during rest time and my child wouldn’t be invited to return in the new year. I’m an early childhood educator and have taught kindergarten and preschool for over 17 years. Schools should accommodate, guide, support and model patience. It’s a blessing in disguise my child found age appropriate childcare elsewhere. Hopefully administration has since changed their policies.

My daughter came to Novus after not suceeeding in the 2nd grade. After realizing that public school was not going to work we took her to two private schools that felt she wouldn't be successful at. I was referred to Novus from my home church who knew about the school. Our family spent six months trying to make a round peg fit in a square hole. When we found Novus our lives changed! My Daughter has been at Novus for two years and she has expanded in her learning and most importantly her confidence. Confidence is a huge building block for learning. If you have a child that doesn't learn like "most kids" I highly recomend you come by the school to see if this school can help your child!

As a current parent who has been attending for several years with my two boys find these reviews to be absurd, and obviously written by a disgruntled employee, if anything I have noticed a positive change in the school, especially since some of the former employees no longer work there. The management team is professional, relatable , understanding and truly do what is best for the children. I agree with Mrs. Hines that whoever is writing these negative reviews should consider their own motivation. My family loves the Goddard School, the staff, the management team and Mr. Grady. A good school starts from the top and trickles down, this school wouldn't be what it is without this team. Please do not consider these negative reviews while making your choice in finding the right school for you and your family.

This school has been a God-send! After 9 years of home school we decided our son needed something more for high school. The teachers and staff have amazing hearts and abilities and have welcomed us in with open arms. We believe we are getting a top-notch education for an affordable price!

My daughter has bloomed since we enrolled her here a year ago!

The Clariden School community has been instrumental in helping my daughter develop to her fullest potential, not just academically, but also socially and physically. My daughter loves Mrs. Myers and the warm classroom family, and is actually disappointed on weekends when she doesn't get to go to school when she wakes up! In the Cougar Prep Pre-school, she has enjoyed lots of indoor and outdoor play-based learning, where she has learned to cooperate with classmates, practiced being in leadership roles, and used tons of imagination, all while getting the movement that her growing body needs to be healthy. The project-based academic program teaches math and literacy skills in such an authentic way, my daughter didn't even realize she had become a reader until I pointed out to her that she was reading and writing real words. I work in the field of education and see schools across the country striving to achieve what The Clariden School does so well. We are so blessed to have this school so close to home.
