Private Schools

We just started my daughter in the IOS upper elementary classroom this year and love it! She's thriving with the small student-teacher ratio and individualized learning. In addition to regular academics, she loves getting to choose electives she's interested in like theater and art. Lots of time in beautiful nature is great too! As parents, we enjoy being part of a great community.

Great historical church. Our Cub Scouts Pack 685 just moved here for our new home.

The Goddard School was recommended to me by a fellow firefighter in the Austin Fire Department. My wife and I both work full time, so when we had our son Enzo he started very early, around 6 months old. It was especially difficult to entrust his care to strangers given that we are first time parents. Almost two years later I can't tell you how blessed I feel to have The Goddard School (and particularly the new owner and staff) in our lives. Not only do I feel completely comfortable leaving my son in their care, my wife and I have been thoroughly surprised with the level of learning and positive interaction that takes place. The new owner Ashok it's one of the nicest and most genuine people I have met. In his first year he has not only made significant improvements to the brick-and-mortar aspects of the school itself, but also the technology, security, interactivity and social events have all improved as well. My wife and I thoroughly enjoy the photos of our son and updates we get daily on our phones. Misty and Danielle in the front office are extremely competent and keep all the back-end logistics running smoothly... stuff parents don't think about but nonetheless are extremely necessary. My wife and I can't put a price on the peace of mind that the staff at The Goddard School have given us. I have been very pleased with all of our son's teachers and their individual qualities. If you are in need of childcare and live in the North Austin / Round Rock / Pflugerville area, you will be hard-pressed to find a better group of more genuine, hard working and ethical individuals to care for and educate your child. On a final note, I would encourage parents to look at the date of reviews posted about the Goddard School when considering it. As I mentioned above, there have been radical changes since Ashok and his family purchased the Goddard School from the previous owners approximately 1 year ago.

We are so glad we chose Primrose for our child. This is her third day care center and to get to each one of them I visited a few more. After being there for only 3 weeks my husband and I confirmed that Primrose was the best choice for our child. Here are some of the great things about Primrose. It's safe and clean. It serves breakfast, lunch and snacks, but their menu includes a larger variety of foods than other centers/schools. The best part of Primrose are the learning and fun experiences that your child will be exposed to since day one. Primrose gets it. Children learn playing. The kids are playing but there is a thought behind every experience your child will be presented with. The other area on which Primrose excels is in caring. One of the fears of having your child on a center that is a franchise is that your child will be a name on a list. Not here. Primrose has the environment of a small non franchised independent center. All the staff members I have met are friendly. That includes the director and the owners. The teachers my child has are amazing. They care about your child and they get to know your child. Yes, it's expensive. However, I did find other expensive day cares that do not offer all what your kid will receive at Primrose. My husband and I thought it through before making the commitment, but when we saw our child enjoying her time at the school it made it worth it. My husband was convinced with the first photos he saw on the app about what our child was doing at school. I go back and forth with calling it a center and a school because there is a curriculum for every age just as a school but please don't picture little babies going trough flash cards every morning to learn concepts. The curriculum is age appropriate and is through experiences and play that the little ones learn. Your child will learn without noticing it. It's so great. I will encourage you to visit it before you make a decision of where your child will spend his or her day. I visited Primrose a couple of times before my child started and she always wanted to let go of my arms and get down and play. I think she made the decision right away.

Good.

Great school!!

Awesome chool

School is awesome I go there it's the best school I've ever been to.

Versatile and all around focused.

Nice

Two of our sons graduated from the Village School in the last 15 years and our daughter currently attends the school. Both of our sons went to Ivey -League colleges after attending high school locally since the Village did not had HS at that time. Our daughter is entering The high school after attending the Village for 10 years. The school is not cheap or easy but it is worth it. The academic standards are consistently high and the music department is exceptional. We have seen the school growth and change hands through the years without loosing its spirit. This school is diverse and promotes cross-cultural respect and religious tolerance which is very important to us.

Excellent classical Christian education with a staff who truly cares about raising its students. Strong volunteer opportunities for parents and great athletics. Chapel held each week is uplifting and a joy to attend!

So proud of our great students, fantastic teachers, and successful alumni. Go Panthers!

Christ-centered education. Biblically solid nurturing environment for the whole family to grow in their walk with the Lord. Love working there and blessed that my kids attend PCA!

Do not judge this school based on appearance. This school is very old but the teacher's are wise in their ways!!! Let me list the many reasons all three of our children attend here. 1. Christ centered (Children daily read scripture from their Bibles). 2. Small classrooms (Teachers know every student's strengths and weaknesses) so they dont get behind but are stretched to their full potential. 3. Parents are allowed to observe classrooms any day they choose. Teacher's have nothing to hide. 4. Uses ABEKA curriculum, which we believe is an essential element to building a solid foundation. 5. Highest test scores we have seen in the El Paso, Texas school district. 6. Easy transitions for militiary families.

My little brother goes here, and he loves it!

After reading all the reviews like a concerned mother , this place seems terrible. For any owner that doesn’t work with the parents for comfort is definitely a concern. I’m very particular about how often my sons diapers get changed and I’ve read from many parents that they don’t do that here. Being hung up on when trying to get answers as to why your child is hurt is just unexceptable! Some people may have good experiences but I refuse to allow my child to get hurt just to have a bad experience. I’ll sefinitly take my money else where

I was a student at Desoto Private School and now both of my children go there. This school is up and above every other place I have looked at. The daycare is extremely convenient for working parents and my children have learned more than their friends at other schools. My children love to go to school everyday and there is always some new event or outing they get to do. This school goes up and above in every way both for preschool and school ages. I would suggest this to anyone looking for a great school with great teachers and a fun environment. I feel great knowing my children enjoy their day, but also are getting the best education around. Thanks Desoto Private School!
