This is not a school it is a place where working parents can leave their kids to be monitored. The setting is beautiful and looks impressive from the outside, more like a professional oasis from the administration down. The children are well taking care of as long as there are no concerns. The babies appear to be well taken care of and seem to be in very good hands. The older kids appear to be the problem at this oasis. The older they get and the more they are able to speak and think for themselves, the more they become a problem. The staff are more absent than present and they expect consistency and order in their classes. Children today need more attention and concrete structure from home and school. This is a monitoring post that is not equipped to handle older kids. Some staff members are lazy and very vocal, not models of what they expect but dictators. True teacher are models and illustrators that perform the task they expect to be carried out, not direct instructors that delegate but never duplicate the lesson for the children to see. My concerns with the teacher are based on their excessive absences, unable to identify concerns, unable and unwilling to redirect without showing frustration. These are not teachers, they are glorified baby sitters that are not certified or properly trained to deal with behaviors in the learning environment. Their method to dealing with challenges are to write reports to cover their business. As a parent, a grandparent and a professional who worked with babies, the youth and disabled adults, I am not satisfied with the work ethic, the inconsistencies and the management style of the whole infrastructure that affects the social learning ability of the future.

My child went to this school and had a very good experience. They handled things very professionally. The administration went through a huge change and everyone in the office was different director and all other than the lady at the front desk. Things started to change alot and it seemed a little unstable. There were several different teacher throughout the year. A very select few who stayed. As of now Im not sure how the school is running. I do know from my experience working there they had alot to offer in the beginning but later down the road I felt very discouraged and taken advantage of. I also noticed alot of favoritism and laziness from those few. Unfortunately Ive seen this alot in my years of teaching within several preschools. Just hope for the Best and that this school has only improved since all of the changes because otherwise it is a great place and a very fun school!

I was very unsatisfied with this school. They cared more about backing themselves up with paper work (yukey notes) that the kids become insecure with themselves. My children had a terrible self image at this school. I heard these so-called teachers talking at the two and three year olds like trash. The directors are extremely self absorbed. This place is trouble...

At first I thought this school was wonderful. This School is all about writing note (YUKEY NOTES). These are online certificated teacher who have no idea how to handle children. They are very quick to label boys and sent them to a therapist. Stating that they have a behavioral problem. I took my son to a Therapist that the school recommended. The therapist told me to take my son out of the school.

As a person who has been with New Life for a long time, I can personally tell you that this is completely incorrect. The staff is growing and training given the fact that it has only been a school for about 5 months or so. God placed many knowledgeable and polite people here to teach these children.

New Life Assembly Academy won the Reader's Choice award for best childcare center again! This is the 6th year in a row! Congratulations to all the hard working staff.

Teachers are not competent. They can't handle kids. They yell at kids and have no manners when asking for things.

Directors seem to not know about the stuff issues. They don't listen to parents suggestions.

Worst school ever
