Cocheco Arts And Technology Charter Academy

I use to go here for 3 years until I left in 2021, they do nothing about bullying, I was bullied horribly by everyone and nobody did a thing, their answer for it was just to talk to the guidance consular after getting off the bus and not telling the kids bullying me off. The teachers were worse, they were a few great teachers but the rest were horrible, I got in trouble so many times for doing nothing wrong. I got in trouble for drawing the smallest thing on my paper. One of the teachers legit made one of my classmates cry. I do not recommend this school. They will do nothing if you're bullied or in bad mental health.

We were worried when we bought a house in the vicinity of Woodman Park. I grew up in Dover and went to Garrison, so I had always heard that Woodman Park was "the worst" of the three grade schools. My husband and I have been so pleasantly surprised with this school. My daughter's first year in Kindergarten at W.P. was such a great success and she could not have loved it more. The teachers are compassionate and do a great job instilling important life skills in our little one. She is so excited to start a new school year!

My children have been at this school for over a year and so far very pleased. Yes there were a few issues - teacher turnover (this has stopped), owners not engaged, ratio issues (during the period of teacher turnover), etc. This school has all of the potential in turning into one of the long term schools like Garrisons and Happy Helpers. The facility is nice. The playground is big. The teachers really are wonderful - they care and have the experience. Best of all, the director is the heart of the organization. Each and every one of those issues mentioned above and on yelp as well as other reviews, the director is aware and has made an effort to improve (more than smoke and mirrors). If you would rather go to an established center with little challenges, this place is not for you. However of you like a school with a lot of growth potential, clean and newer facilities, lots of outdoor time for children no matter the weather (even if it is just 10 minutes to get fresh air), lots of communication with parents, this is a good choice. I would rate it higher if the owners were more involved and more visible, more parent involved activities, more field trips, etc.

Does not uphold Catholic/christian values despite their name and reputation. Very sad to see as a local Catholic Community member.

My kids have been at My School for three years. We looked at a lot of preschool options and knew immediately when we visited My School that it was a special place. From cozy reading corners to art studio, every space is thoughtfully designed to engage the kids in imaginative play and hands-on exploration and it's evident that the teachers genuinely care and are dedicated to the kids. They do a really good job with communication and with organizing special activities and events (i.e. Halloween parade, farm field trips, spring fling, art show, outings to the local coffee shop). Arguably more important than the academics, I feel that they help to prepare my kids with social and emotional skills to navigate the world with kindness and confidence. I wholeheartedly recommend My School to any parent seeking an amazing preschool experience.
