I love this school! I have two children attending since they are 3. One is now in 2nd grade and the other one is in VPK. Both of them LOVED this school. They will be attending the remaining of the elementary years as my children feel safe, happy, loved, and learned everyday from the amazing teachers and staff. Just to have something in mind, when I pick up my kids after work they do not want to leave as they enjoyed all the extra curriculum activities, specially the sports. My kids are always welcome by their name when they come in and I love the structure and professionalism of everyone in there. I am currently pregnant, and guess where my 3rd child will be attending? Oh, yes KINDGOM ACADEMY!!!! So, if you are a mom searching for a great school for your children with knowledge, education, training, love, understanding, and organization, think KINGDOM ACADEMY!

My son is in the VPK program and my daughter is in the elementary program at Kingdom Academy. Both my husband and I have seen our children grow and learn so much this school year. The teachers are absolutely wonderful, they have a strong curriculum and you can see how much everyone at the school really cares about the students. My kids NEVER want to leave when I go pick them up. I am so happy I found such a great school!

My daughter just began Summer Camp there and she is soooooooooo happy. Every day I hear her complain about how she doesn't want to leave. I'm very happy with the teachers, with the activities and with the great environment she is in every day. GREAT choice for Summer Camp!!

As a parent I am extremely concerned and very disturbed with the school's administration!!! I have never seen such an unprofessional demeanor towards the parents and towards some of their very own teachers. I have experienced this first hand. I am currently looking for another school to place my son in. The school's administration does not know how to run a school or to handle certain situations. They have poor communication skills with others. They really make it a bitter welcoming for you as a parent...they smile but you can see how fake they are. There are maybe 3 teachers that are so worth it and I honestly don't know what they are doing there! I am thankful for those teachers who are doing their job with love towards their students. To those teachers...keep doing what you do with love; but to the rest of you...try and learn something about those teachers that know what they are doing. You might learn something! DO NOT PLACE YOUR CHILD in a "school" like this!!! But don't take my word for it...research it.

This is the 3rd year in the school and I love it more every day!!! now that my daughter is in pre-k I am learning more about the program and think they are very organized and have a very good environment. My child loves the food, every day she has a new experience to tell and she is learning a lot. The installations are great, the classrooms are big, organized, they paint the school every year, and keep it clean.

Things have changed! They always say that change is good. Unfortunately, in this case it is not. So far this year we are not happy with the changes. What made this school special were the teachers they had. They have new teachers that are not as special. My child came home one day and stated"She doesn't care!" talking about her teacher. That had never happened the other two years that we have been there. You know how much it hurts to hear that from your child? Also, it has been two weeks already into the school year and we are not happy with the after school program. Another change they made that is not positive. The teachers were the ones that made this school very unique. Now we don't know. Unfortunately, we will continue in this school this year. But we will be looking for another school next year, unless there are positive changes made. So far not good!

Personally i have to say that i was extremely happy with the Kindergarden curriculum. Ms. Soto was one of the best things that has happened to my child. Not only does she prepare her kids very well academically, but she has a very caring and loving personality. She really knows how to make a child feel special and loved. I look forward to having a good year in first grade and hope the teacher is just as great as the previous one.

MY daughter went to this school from age 2 til 4, her last day was friday. When my daughter first attended this school I was as happy and as impressed with the school as any mom would after finding a safe place for their children. the first two years my daugher was happy to be there, loved the food, she would come home singing new songs every day, her level in education would grow and showed significant changes week after week. this past year the school menu changed from being freshly made to being catered, she disliked the food and asked for me to pick her up early because she would be soo hungry, not once did she come home signing new songs, her primary journal only had 5 pages of scribble when i picked it up at the end of the year, she didnt advance educationalyl at all this year, i spoke to a few parents and they had the same experience with their children. This year I felt my child was at a day care instead of an academy. the administration never made me feel as if i entered a great happy place in the mornings or afternoons. the new in out system at the end was a hassle. I am extremely happy to be out of kingdom and starting a new adventure.

This year my child graduated from Kingdom Academy and just want to say thank you.....to everybody involved in my child's education all this years (3 years) My son is now ready for kindergarten and the only reason he will not continue in the school is because we need to move out of State. I recommend the school 100%

I am extremely pleased with this Private School. The teachers and the staff make the experience feel like we are part of a big family. After looking at about 7 other schools we decided to pick this one and have been there for 2 years. My daughters have learned a lot. Yes there are activities that you need to pay for, but instead of going to another place you are in the comfort of the school. If you don't pay for them there are other activities: Italian, Art, Music(Chorus), Civics and Soccer part of the after school program. The teachers that my daughters have been involved with are the BEST! They care!! The ladies in front are very helpful. Any questions or issues I have had they have done a great job responding. The food that they eat at school is healthy and it is not junk food. Freshly cooked every day! Now the only two issues that I have are that the school should hire professional cleaning staff so that the school is clean especially in the mornings. Also, that there is not enough parking spaces. Some parents are inconsiderate and park in front of the school not giving other parents room to pass. This is a GREAT SCHOOL the relationships built here are for life!

My son is in second grade and has been with Kingdom Academy since he was two years old. At first, Kingdom represented peace of mind because my son was taught and cared by loving teachers.Through the years, I have seen my son grow not only physically but also intellectually. I am very pleased with the elementary program. The fact that the elementary and after school program is taught by the same morning teacher is great. My son receives academic support by his own teacher during the after school program. Also, the school provides the 21st after school program. Our family qualified to participate for free. I am grateful to Kingdom Academy for the support!

When I first visited Kingdom Academy. I was impressed with the building and the outside grounds. A few months into the school year. I am mostly impressed with the variety of activities my child enjoy at the school. Throughout the day, my child participate in choir, art, music, Italian,and other activities that most schools do not offer. Teachers are easy to reach, and they respond quickly to any concern I may have. I highly recommend Kingdom Academy to parents that are serious about education.

The teachers are affectionate and care about my children's wellbeing. The school is beautifully kept and the environment is appropiate for children. As a parent I am very pleased with the support I receive from the school

My son is been there since he is 2 and I'm very pleased. I like the kinder system better than the pre-k since there is better communication with the teacher and I am more aware of what is going on with my son on daily basics. One thing is for sure is that their main concern is not only for the students to learn but to build their character and fight their insecurities, that is the best for kids. They teach the students to care for people and to care about feelings, and helping the community. I've heard they have outstanding SAT results where kids from 2nd grade get 5th grade level math or writing depending on the student s individual strength. They also help each one w/the specific area that is harder for them to learn and try to keep them up with the rest. Strongly recommend it!

The school is very clean!, they make the meals in their kitchen and usually is good (the only objection is they make pasta +-twice a week). I consider the communication with the teachers is good, I have two kids and we (teacher and me) communicated to solve some minor behavior problems. My children loves to go to the school and they learn a lot... Is not a day care is a school for the littles ones. I absolutely recommend it!

This school needs a lot of improvement in paren/teacher communication. In order to get the latest class/school information of events or reminders parents are told to read the papers posted on doors or walls. No notices are sent home. They do offer parents to look at their website; unfortunately, the calendar of events on their website has not been updated for 6 months now...which makes that choice useless and absurd. Administration is hardly ever available, and when I attempted to leave a message, their exact response was, 'you must keep calling back because they can't call you, they are too busy in the afternoon'. I can go on with the many errors found in this school, but due to the limited space, this should suffice.
