Ever since Endeavor took over the quality of our experience had significantly diminished. Although the teachers are as amazing as always, it's very troubling to see that the school grounds caretaker was dismissed and now I see teachers out with hoses washing down play equipment instead of teaching our children. Before Endeavor took over I would 100% recommended school to my friends and family but now I tell them to keep an open mind and search for other places that are not becoming so corporate.

The teachers and admin are incredibly supportive and accommodating. They have made us feel comfortable and excited to start at our new school. I also appreciate the daily photos the teachers post on ProCare so family can see what the kids are doing and learning throughout the day.

I’m BEYOND thrilled to see the new leadership Ms. Curtis brings to our school. My hope is that she can really bring the community feeling back between families and support our outstanding teachers in the way they deserve to be supported. My high recommendation would be solely based on staff. Our campus itself is in DESPERATE need of refreshment/repair. The actual school (the plumbing, sidewalks and play areas) is falling apart, areas have been unkept since Mr Juan was let go and my child regular says she sees cockroaches in her classroom. It is disappointing that we pay so much to have a school that is in such terrible condition.

Please be more upfront (kindly so) about what the school can support for neurodivergent kids. Over the past two years, two friends with suspected ADHD have been asked to leave for behavior. This could have been a smoother and more empathetic process with more transparency around the lack of expertise in this area and more support in referring to a school with a better support system for these families.
