Kindercare Learning Center

If you are thinking about Berry, I would seriously reconsider. The education is awful. Students are behind where they should be per grade level. The teachers are distracted and the majority of time just hand out worksheets with zero hands on learning. The discipline is non-existent. The kids rule and get away with everything. There are constant threats from the teachers and administration when kids act up, but zero follow through. An awful life lesson that will hurt kids in the long run. Not to mention the disruptions in their “education”.

Unfortunately I’ve had a recent bad experience with the Life Christian School. I know that my son is very difficult and very tough personality but from the first situation that occurred, instead of caring it he was in school or not they didn’t care and he hasn’t been in school for a week. They seem like they do not care and they seemed like they just wanted to get rid of any problem situation . They said in the end “I will pray for him.” For this being a christian school, I was expecting a more human and respectful environment. The teacher was fake, didn’t care about my child and was just trying to get rid of the issue at hands. He was only going there for two weeks and they called me he didn’t fit the school, didn’t adapt. I understand but they don’t even bothered to ask me if I could have his things back, I had to ask myself. He didn’t get to use the books and I payed an absurd amount to get him into the program. They said that they couldn’t give back the tuition or book money since it’s payed in 10 payment and it’s a full year tuition and when I asked the pastor “he only attended the school mall for two weeks” he repondes with something along the lines of ‘we can’t give back the money” for reasons above. They have a horrible system and organization as well. I went there and the teacher ( pastor wife) tried to say I never paid and that if I did I used my company’s name. I never use the company name for payments like these and the fact that they didn’t have the parents payments ready really worries me for others. Overall, a great school with terrible coordinators. The pastor and his wife were the ones who talked to me about these things.

I am a parent of three and all have attended this school with one in high school now. That child is thriving and the unique skills she brings have been a huge asset. It is non-traditional but in the best way--they have time outdoors and exposure to art, languages and music--a Renaissance education. Mostly I cannot stay enough about the staff and faculty who make this feel like home.

send your kid to this school or else!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can’t say enough about sms. We switched from bethel public and absolutely love this school. There is a sense of calm and peace in the school. There is discipline that is greatly lacking in the public school and kids are taught respect for their teachers and other students. And the kids have fun. Mine never liked school in bethel public, but love sms, the teachers and their new friends. It has been life changing for my family.
