I would rate this school 3 out of 5, I feel students are not challenged enough in academic programs. Academically kids are presented the same activity for two consecutive years for preschoolers which makes me wonder if the kids are academically challenged enough and if the class is progressing, Even though the teachers mention that they are challenged individually, but the outcome hasn't been seen. I feel the cons over weigh than the pros for me from this school.
With 2 teachers in every classroom and the personalised education that results in , you can't find a better school than Daycroft. The teachers are passionate about what they do and it shows. Come and visit the school for yourself and you will see the nurturing and welcoming environment Daycroft offers.
My child is loving to learn again! We had a tough 3rd grade year - hating school to loving within a month! Very individualized; attention to each child in each subject. Teachers know child inside and out. Am so glad we changed from public school.
Excellent elementary school. Our child joined in 2nd grade and has had a very positive experience. The classes are multigrade 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, with 2 teachers in each class. The children are taught many different topics each week, along with weekly homework in spelling/writing. The culture studies are excellent (kids research, write, and make oral presentations several times a year). Ethnically diverse community supports curriculum. Math and reading are highly stressed. The science, Spanish, art, music and gym classes are favorites. Communication/computer skills are enhanced in the weekly library and technology class. The in-class discipline is very good. I am always amazed (having seen elementary classrooms in other schools) with how well the kids settle in and begin work each day. They have weekly 'work plans' and are responsible for completing this work. The teachers are very kind, offer great academic guidance and just the right amount of challenge. Great school!
