My kids have all attended from K to graduation. I have CHOICEd them in since K and Dailard is so worth the drive. The kids have all super excelled and are testing very very well. All of them are reading 3+ years above grade level. The last principal, Mr Erpelding, was awesome, but I am not too sure

My daughter is finishing her 1st year (kinder) at Dailard. Overall, we are very happy with the school and principal- his enthusiasm and dedication has a great effect. We really like her teacher too. I agree with another that said the afterschool program is not very good - it is not run by Dailard, it

The coordinators don't engage much and in Sept, they were very disorganized- not comforting to parents of a new kindergartner. Hopefully things will improve with next year's Y program. In the meantime, we look forward to 1st grade as Dailard dolphins! ;) Read less

We choiced into this school and have been very happy with it. The principle is great, very involved, positive and open to feedback. My son is in K and we love his teacher . The one thing that I have not been happy with is the afterschool care. This was somthing that I didn't really compare at different

The organization has improved, but the kids seem bored.... whenever I see them they are either playing on the playground equipment or sitting around or coloring. Most of the time the staff just seem to hang out and watch the kids ( instead of doing activities with them) and some of the YMCA staff don't interact well with the kids. Read less
