Absolutely terrible and probably the worst school Ive seen!! It is very dated, no new updates besides flooring, activities are lacking, children are not learning, and it is run like a cheap daycare. The money hungry owner and director are very lazy and do not show real interest in improving anything. The teachers are very rude, no communication, always on their phones, gossip, and nothing is getting done. IT is very sad and my child doesnt go to school here anymore.

This private preschool school could be a lot better in many different ways. The school itself has some older kind of charm and lovely artwork inside. The children are totally awesome to be around. The directors I have to say are very unprofessional. They think of teachers more as their friends, let them have way too much freedom, dont have a very up to date type of curriculum, talk about people even other staff behind their backs + play favorites, and they dont watch the cameras to really see what is going on. The gossip between teachers and even kitchen staff there is very bad and inappropriate. Teachers have their cell phones out half the time. A few teachers are very mean to children to the point of being verbally abusive and even mocking them. Ms. Ennis is the worst behaved of all staff there and screams at the kids all day long and handles problems very poorly. Teachers just walk out of rooms when kids are in the classroom. Staff is underpaid and barely get vacation, required childcare trainings are not provided or paid free by the school; teachers have to obtain them themselves from various sources, and no health insurance through the school is offered. It really is a internal mess and needs work. The school isnt very clean and the classrooms are small. Teachers and kids throw the kids dirty swim towels in the hallways on the floor; no laundry baskets. Teachers have no first aid kits in the classrooms. The parking lot behind it is extremely tiny for two schools and parents have to drop kids off. Not much parent teacher interaction/communication. Lots of activities during the year at least like swim, dance, piano, and STEM. I sure hope things change for the better.

I absolutely love the school when my daughter first came to meadow oaks she was very quiet and kept to herself and since she has been there she has blossomed social and intellectually. She has learned so much and loves coming home and sharing the details of her day and what she has learned. I also love that they breakfast and lunch that is prepared is made fresh daily. They use fresh produce, meat and hormone free milk. They truly love and care for their students health, and happiness. I am proud to say that my daughter is a student at meadow oaks academy.

I’m at the Children’s Aquarium where the children are on a field trip. One of the little boys is crying and not one of the four instructors has offered this sweet child a hug or caring response. They keep either ignoring his sadness or tell him “You’re ok!” They’re even taking pictures of him crying without caring for his feelings. This is horrible to watch. Whoever’s child this is should come into the school and see about the lack of support their child is getting.

My kids have been going to Meadow Oaks for five years, and they are currently now in 5th grade and kindergarten. I have been pleased with the school, and I feel they are getting a good education. I truly have loved the block system of learning that they started this past year. I feel it teaches the child on their level and it allows them to excel and move at a higher level and not hold them back if they are ready, but also allows them to move at a slower pace on subjects that they are weaker in. The staff is great, and I always feel I can approach the owner or the principal of the school if I have any concerns or issues.

This is the best pre-school in the area. They are always up front when you come in saying good morning, strong security and the kids are learning. Our daughter has been here for 3 months now and even though it is a little out of my way, I wouldnt have her anywhere else. She will stay until she starts school.

My family has had one of the WORST experiences here. Do NOT enroll your children in this school. I’ve complained to Ms. Lorie many time about Ms. Margo spreading lice among the student. My child never came home in the same clothes I sent them in and her classroom was ALWAYS a complete mess. The teachers are extremely rude except for my child’s favorite teacher Ms. Ari. She is wonderful! Sad to say I recently heard she is no longer there and will not be returning my child to this daycare. Just a warning to all new parents choose somewhere else! Blessings to you.

My 18 month old attended this facility for 3 weeks. The teacher in the mornings was frequently late, which meant my daughter was left waiting on a bench until she arrived. The staff was friendly but I didnt get the family feel as I wanted.

I have had family members at MOA since the late 80s. Teachers and staff are very professional and truly care for the children and their families. The educational program at MOA truly gives the kids a giant head start! I highly recommend MOA!

My baby Canelo has been attending MOA for over 5months now, and he absolutely loves it.At first I was very hesitant and nervous about the environment when I first visited the school.My first reaction was the school looks old from inside and out of date security system.But when I noticed the other children were happy and full of positive energy I took the chance.Since then he has learned so much,his vocabulary has increased,hes now potty-trained and all his classmates love him.💜 The staff is very nice and always welcoming,clean,and the food is always being prepared when I get there in the morning.But most of all his teacher,she truly loves and shows effection towards her class. I recommend this school to anyone that is looking for a great secured day-care/ school for your child.
