Devon Aire K-8 Center

William Lehman is an amazing school! The majority of the teachers are great and very involved. Administration and staff are very helpful and make sure if there is an issue that the child's needs are being met! The principal is really good about parent involvement and our PTA is on point!. I was nervous when I had to switch my daughter to public school, but WLE has been a huge blessing to us! Their drama performance every year is spectacular and my daughter is happy and thriving academically as well as emotionally!

Heartbreaking disappointment...My older son went to this school and had a good experience. My younger son was there recently, but I had to pull him out. He did pre-k 2 there. During that year he was diagnosed with autism and started receiving behavior and speech therapy while in school. The director and teachers seemed to have his best interests at heart. We had a meeting with the director and my son's behavior analyst in April and agreed to leave him in the same class with the same teacher for the next school year (the director's idea). Everything started changing in august starting with the day of the orientation with the teacher's shock and confusion as to why my son was in her class again, and continuing with cold treatment from staff and parents. I sent emails and left messages with the director to have a conference and no one ever got back to me. The last straw is when I found out that the teacher was telling the other children not to play with my son. I showed up at the school that afternoon clearly upset. All I could do was cry as I explained everything That had been going on. She accused me of not showing up for a meeting - thAt her secretary left me a message - a flat out lie because my voicemail was not working at the time. She put on an unauthentic display of sympathy and then stood up as I was still sobbing to say her goodbyes. No one cared. All of this could have been avoided if she just would have come out and told me that she no longer felt that her school was the right place for my son.

My son attended MCH from Jan 2020 until schools were forced to close in March 2020. While I had some issues with communication between the teachers and myself, I knew that my son was enjoying the social interactions that being in school provided.What followed after the shutdown was truly a disappointment.Remote learning for my sons class consisted of 2-3 unoriginal content videos a week and one 15 minute zoom session with his class that often seemed unplanned and frenzied.While I’m sympathetic to the radical changes teachers were forced to make, to say the process was poorly executed is an understatement.In conversations with other moms I had become well aware of how other schools were handling the situation, including tuition costs and curriculum. MCH really failed us in many ways.When my husband and I reached out to try and come to an agreement on what we could pay for the remaining months that would be reasonable for both parties we were expressing told that full payment would be expected with no exceptions.The entire situation was made worse when they began ignoring our emails, phone calls and even visits to the school.This school functions coldly and with little actual regard for the families writing the checks.
