Posted by a parent on 6/10/2021It appears our child is thriving. It appears our child is being treated fairly and treated with respect and decency. It appears our child is enjoying themselves and connecting with other decent kids. But appearances can be deceiving and therefore will be on the lookout for obvious flags based on the feedbacks and reviews on this site.
Posted by a parent on 9/2/2020I personally enjoyed the first half of my experience here. There are some wonderful staff and students in the building which make the school a nice place to work. Then I realized that teacher work loads were nowhere close to equal -- some teachers had significantly more duties than others, some teachers were denied PLC, some teachers were given preferential treatment with less classes, more preps and no duties... some administrators were helpful, and some were pretty hurtful. And so after raising concerns and trying to enact change, I realized change would not happen. So I left.
Posted by a teacher on 12/13/2019I had a horrible time with this school. My 7th grader would come home bruised from bullying, the teachers couldn't care less, and even the "advanced" classes are far below the basic standard. Many students are bussed to this school from miles away as a way for the state to close demographic gaps but our students are suffering from it.

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy disappointment is deepened by the apparent preferential treatment for Christian families. It seems King's Christian School welcomes only those who share their faith, a stark contradiction to their stated mission. Using the name of God while not welcoming non-Christian families is deeply disappointing and casts a shadow on the school's values.Shame on King's Christian School for their actions, which do not align with their professed mission and values.Parent Review6mo ago - Cherry Hill Montessori School

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIf you love your child, do not send them to this 'school'.We sent our child here and had to take her out after half a year. There were multiple incidents of bullying and/or kids just misbehaving and the school not handling those situations properly. I had no false hope that every kid would act like an angel 100% of the time and believe I was realistic in hoping that if and when a child would not behave well, the teachers would know how to handle it- boy, was I wrong!My daughter was scratched, pushed, hit, had her leg stood on by a boy (to which the teacher just told the other kid not to do it bc my daughter didn't like it.... Because so many people would)The straw that broke the camels back was: my husband arrived to pick up my daughter and noticed a bump/bruise on her head. He asked the 3 teachers at the door what happened. They all said they didn't know.Our daughter told us that a boy (who had done other things to her in the past and sounded to be an overall behavioral issue), hit her in the head with a stick on the playground. I asked if a teacher saw. She said no. She said she told a teacher and that teacher put the kid in timeout. Ok, fine. BUT, she happened to be one of the teachers at the door that said she didn't know what happened to my daughter....In all the time my daughter went yo the school, we felt they operated in the dark. We never received an email about any incidents and when we brought it to her teachers attention, he said he would look into it and get back to me. Never did.After this last incident, they also said they were going to investigate and interview the teachers and get back to me with their findings. They never did.It became very obvious to me that this school was all about collecting $$, but not providing even the basic service of safety, not to mention an education.I am not an unreasonable individual, and if they had just communicated when things happened and told me how they remedied it, I would have been ok.Send your child elsewhere..... there are plenty of good schools out there. This is not one of them.Parent Review5mo ago - Congregation M'kor Shalom Preschool & Kindergarten
