uh idk this school is pretty good and my son says its good

This school is a joke. Don't believe me? Check the school's socials for (lack of) engagement. Most reviews are over 7 years old. No recent pics. The principal thinks engagement is randomly reading a book over zoom. Pandemic is over- no more excuses. He does not care about the students, the parents, or the teachers. He's just counting his days until retirement. Do yourself and your children a favor and enroll them in ANY other school.

My daugher is love this school. Teacher is very nice

Worst school everRacist to the coreThey want cookie cutter kids

Upon the school visit, I was sold by the abundant classroom pets, the unique art pieces children made at the school, and the non-character policy the school carries (love it no uniform, and yet no Disney character dress-up). I've heard about the Montessori concepts, but I wasn't looking for Montessori in particular. But after the classroom visit, I KNEW this is the place! Looking back, I'm so grateful that Innovative goes the extra miles and brings up those parent education evenings, to educate parents of the Montessori concept, and classroom props, which gave me idea and better understanding of how they approach Maths (visualization, self-correction), practical life skills, and reading and writing, and to know what I could do at home. My child has been going there over two (2) years now, and have transitioned from the Toddler Class to the Early Childhood Classroom. We thought we potted trained our child in three (3) days, but it turned out that the school really prepared our child for it, and the majority of the work was already done there before we even started, and the same applies to her writing, reading and Maths now. When my child started daycare at 7-months old, she cried for almost four (4) weeks at drop-off. When my daughter started at Innovative, at 18 months old, she cried for only a couple of days, and then she walks off straight to her teacher and friends, without even looking at me, until now That's how you know those little ones truly like the place. I'm forever grateful to my neighbor for recommending Innovative to us. It's not like those big chains, where everything is so commercial, but the staff and teachers here genuinely care about what they do, as you can see from the classroom visit. I also love the small community feel and support. Ms. Kathryn the headmistress is always there with resources and answers on child rearing, with her big BIG heart! I STRONGLY recommend Innovative to parents who look for authentic education, with all the benefit of Montessori concept actualized, to bring up your child to be a self-motivated, independent and loving individual.
