Valley Road School

Although the teachers at this school work hard to create a positive learning environment for the children, the administration is unprofessional and, in my opinion, fosters a toxic environment that seems to bring out the worst behavior in children who might otherwise have been kind, instead of cruel to their fellow students. It was terrible to witness, as the children deserve better. I don’t believe the environment and toxic culture can change at this school until there is a complete change in the school’s current administration. I would not recommend this school to any parent, as your child’s self esteem and emotional well being may be severely damaged in this environment.

last 3 years has been good and the staff is amazing

Terrible lack of communication and terrible at holding kids accountable for their actions. The same kids repeatedly harass and hurt kids.

Relocated from out of state and moved to hopatcong where my son enrolled to attend here. I find the schools here much better the the 3 it's rated. My son has some special needs as he is dyslexic and has speech delays. They are able to accommodate him and everything he does. The teachers and staff are very knowledgeable and willing to help. To keep lines of communication open and are very accessible to parents. Very impressed with the school and staff thus far.

The school has no cameras in its entire facility which is very alarming to me. Compared to other day cares, children do not learn or advance in absolutely anything. Some of the teachers are fine, it is the administration and front desk. I am a very laid back parent but when I start Being worried if my child might possibly not be being treated well at a place because of how much he dreads going to it. , I have to start wondering about it. We are much happier where we are now and I am starting to see the changes and improvements in absolutely every single aspect of my child just like I was before our small stay at this day care.
