Private Schools

Not sure how a school could get any better than the PREP! The staff is caring and warm, and my son's teachers are so sweet. The classrooms are clean and are equipped with closed circuit cameras so we check the monitors and see how our son is doing. The school utilizes a system that e-mails pictures of our son doing his activities throughout the day. At the end of the day, they send another link with all of the pictures, along with a report of how much he ate and drank, and when he had a wet diaper or BM. We really appreciated this system because we felt more connected to our son. The system really opened up that communication gap that we previously felt with an in-home daycare. PREP also utilizes a security system that makes us feel confident knowing that our child is safe and sound at school and that we are the only ones that can check him out. We highly recommend the PREP!

We chose Bannockburn Christian Academy (BCA) back in 2011 because we wanted a non-denominational Christian education for our son. We were looking for a school with a small class size and a curriculum that wasn’t just teaching kids to pass a standardized test. What we found was more than a great education but a loving, family-like environment. The love of Christ is evident in all the staff. All of my son’s teachers have been accessible and respond quickly to email. Communication from them and the principal is well-done using email, Shutterfly website, take-home papers and Facebook. If I can’t make it in time to pick up my son he is put into an after school program (Fit Kids) on campus and no advance reservation is required. It provides great peace of mind when I am running late. Several days a week there are after-school clubs like Spanish, Mandarine, chess, soccer, etc. Tuition is one of the least expensive in SW Austin for a private Christian education. Even the location is convenient. I highly recommend BCA. We are very blessed to be a part of this family.

This is our first year with the Dripping Springs Christian Academy and so far we love it. Our daughter is advanced in her studies and DSCA allows her to move at her accelerated pace and challenge her where she is, rather than a "one size fits all" curriculum. They offer an a-la-carte class options, which is ideal for our community that has a large amount of homeschooling families - they can supplement their learning one class at a time or more. The school recognizes the parent's authority on their child and works in partnership for the best education for the children, while keeping in mind that they are, as their logo says, training ambassadors for God's calling in their lives. My daughter is learning 1 or more bible verses (and really involved, longer and deeper verses) per week, as well as having the curriculum immersed in a biblical perspective. Her teacher and I are able to communicate daily if needed, and the class sizes are smaller, which my child (and we) love. Several grades are together in classes so my Kindergartener is able to talk with and hangout with older kiddos and have an example to look to, and with the high quality they are have, I know that is a good example. I have been thrilled with the education, professionalism, the teachers' knowledge and the Head of School at DSCA and would love to continue my child, and my younger daughter, there in the future.

Life changing!!!

We are so happy to have our daughter at this Primrose location! The young infant class with Stephanie and Madison is great - our daughter loves coming to school and learning new things with them. They often do super cute crafts with the class and they post and send tons of pics and videos on the Tadpoles app so I can stay informed on my daughters day! Couldn't be happier!

Really neat place to perform

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.

THE PLACE OF GOD

Awesome

Everyone is so nice helpful and welcoming 🙂

St James is definitely the best school in town.

My son has been enrolled in this school for a little over a month now and I believe it is a great school. The staff and owner are very friendly and do a great job with the students. One thing that caught my eye during the first visit was the diversity in the school, not only staff but the students there as well. This school has a lot to offer as far as quality education.

My 2yr old loves going to school every day. I was afraid she would cry everyday but she was excited. She's been going now for 2months and is counting, saying ABCs, and now says days of week. The teachers are so good with them. Only thing I don't like is making her lunch everyday. I recommend them to everybody..

Primrose school of Bedford is a great School for all ages. Erin Allens Staff and Managment team are always available, helpful, very welcoming and loves every child that comes through the school. I highly recommended this school if you are looking for a loving childcare Center and after school care.
