6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is dangerous. Children with behavior problems are not dealt with and left in classrooms to throw tables and chairs. Students who are well behaved are ignored while teachers are dealing with violence and extreme disobedience. One poorly behaved child can keep an entire class from a resource because they refuse to get out of their seat. When a teacher gets help from admin for the poor behavior, they're walked around the school and returned back to the classroom with a toy showing everyone else in the classroom that poor behavior gets you fun time walking the halls and your favorite squishy or bubbles! Students who dominate their classroom assaulting the teacher/students (even a child strangling a teacher with a lanyard!) can do the bare minimum of expectations and they're celebrated for it just enforcing that poor performance is the way to win at WBP. If you want your child to go to a school where they're in extreme danger of a head injury from a flying chair, this is your school. If you want your child to actually learn something where they're not in constant danger, look elsewhere. I'm leaving my home of 15 years just to get away from this school.Parent Review1mo ago11 Reviews - Toras Chaim

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe have had the privilege of having several children attend this school over the years. It’s clear that the children truly enjoy their time here and form meaningful relationships with teachers and peers. The pre-K program is exceptional; my own kids have thrived in it, often progressing far ahead of public school standards. Sometimes, that progress has prompted us to choose to bring the children back to this school when considering public options. The school is blessed with a compassionate Pastor who genuinely cares about the children’s well-being and is constantly working to improve the facility, incorporating more modern principles. Their carefully structured curriculum is thoughtfully implemented, and many of the teachers treat each child with deep care and respect, often connecting with them as if they were their own. My children haven’t faced any major issues here, aside from everyday childhood experiences. Of course, personality differences and opinions can arise anywhere, but overall, I believe this school is truly excellent. I wholeheartedly recommend it. The tuition is reasonable, especially for families with multiple children, as they offer discounts per child with a cap to prevent overpayment. The support staff is attentive and devoted, which is exactly what you want when entrusting your precious children to someone else. I prefer caregivers who are detail-oriented and committed to protocol over those who are laissez-faire. The school has made many improvements over the years and remains dedicated to its mission of continuous growth and improvement.Well, we’ve not had the pleasure of going too far. I can say without equivocation that their pre-K program up through second grade is exceptional. They really stress education and push the kids to do and be their best. Just like anywhere, you have to get accustomed to traditions, but faith is a big part of this. My children bring home many of those principles that we are still at home and that they learn at school.Parent Review3w ago13 Reviews - Toras Chaim
