Daniel Academy

This school has no engagement when it comes down to the students front office staff is rude. Teachers do not engage with parents to let parents know what’s going on inside of classroom they just send home notes. You will not get no communication from school if you have issues with your child you will always have to reach out first. They will blame kids and parents to cover up for themselves and teachers

Worst mistake letting my kids go to this school. First year in a private school and I really should have done my research. They make a really good impression don’t be fooled. First thing is kids can make threats like bring a gun to school or kill somebody and act like it is no big deal, they discriminated against my son the time he was there, one student could do something and if my kid did it he got in trouble but not the other student. This is far from a Christian School, my son got a referral for saying “damn” but he walks into the office and one of the employees says “damn” they call my kids a lier when they try to tell me something “why are you lying” let my kids speak. They have students watching the staff’s kids, pulling them out of class giving them extra credit for it how is that a school for education?? It’s not. ONLY good thing I can say about this school is Mrs Rouse VPK she was amazing with my son he learned so much with her, Mrs Tarver 8th grade she was the best to my oldest one, and Mr. Jarradd he was that teacher my kids could go to him for anything and he listened and never judged

This school gets worse by the year from what I’m hearing by people that used to go there, administration keeps coming and going, some of them really do care and are trying their best to help, but every year the scheduling changes and teachers keep leaving. It took Mrs.Ciresi from administration 6 years to notice that I was going to this school, do they not have a record of who goes in and out of that school?It also seems like this school goes in circles with teaching people about Christianity refusing to go any deeper into theology, and church history. If you’re not doing any kind of sports they literally don’t care about you. I’ve also heard from a family friend that tried to get her child into this school that he was rejected for defending himself against another kid that was trying to harass him at his old school.Bullying is also a problem, a friend of my sister’s said that she was bullied for her weight and administration did nothing about it.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience at New Dimensions Learning Center! From the moment we walked in back in 2022, we felt welcomed and confident that our children are in the best hands. The teachers are warm, attentive, and truly invested in every child’s development.Our children have grown so much—socially, emotionally, and academically—thanks to the nurturing and engaging environment. The curriculum is creative and age-appropriate, blending play and learning beautifully. We especially love the regular communication, the focus on kindness and independence, and the fun activities that keep our little ones excited to go to school every day. They run straight to their classes in the mornings.The facility is always clean, organized, and safe, and it’s clear that the staff truly care about every detail. We’re so grateful for the love and structure our children receive here. We truly feel like family here!I highly recommend New Dimensions Learning Center to any parent looking for a place where their child will be loved, challenged, and celebrated!

Moved from maryland my child attends thus school. Currently looking into another school. My child went through the whole school year unable to see. The teacher said she wasnt grasping concepts blaming on the move from another state. In Maryland my child was honor roll....here not at all. The teacher played it like my child is dumb. I took her to her pediatrician and actually discovered she needed glasses. The teacher failed my child when all in reality she just couldn't see. Since getting glasses she is fine but the teacher still failed her. The principal doesnt respond to emails. When you call no one returns your call. Im actually reporting the school to the board of education. They ask for money every week with a new fundraiser. I bought 3 boxes of chocolate...I only received 2 and no I didn't get my money back for the 3rd one not received. After care is a joke the teachers are just on their phone my child constantly got picked to the point she would be crying and I had to tell her at this point handle your own if the teacher wont. She stop going to aftercare. Pick up line is terrible they pick and choose who they want to let through the gate early makes it seem very racial. I would not recommend this school and it sucks because the school has all grades but it sucks!

I’d like to share my experience for any parent who doesn’t have a driver’s license and needs to attend a meeting at the school. I went with my valid passport as identification, but I was turned away because of a "background check” requirement that apparently only accepts a driver’s license. This feels discriminatory toward parents who, for various reasons, do not have licenses but still have legitimate identification. It’s both frustrating and embarrassing to be denied entry when we’re just trying to be involved in our children’s education. I hope the school reconsiders these overly restrictive policies so that all parents—regardless of what type of valid ID they have—can participate equally in school matters.Would you like me to make it sound more formal (for something like a letter to the superintendent) or more casual (for a public review post)?
