Every teacher we have encountered here is amazing. They are all so warm and loving to all of the kids. They go above and beyond with their daily lesson plans and my kids have learned so much while having the best time.
We love the cleanliness of the rooms/building, the teachers, the indoor gym and the healthy food the kids are served. We’ve seen our son already grow so much due to his amazing teachers Ms. Janae and Ms. Uma.
Tiffany, Jenni, and the entire teacher/staff are incredibly loving and welcoming to our kids. The teachers are sweet, nurturing, and genuinely care about our girls. They go above and beyond to plan fun, engaging events that help build a strong sense of community. We’re so grateful to be part of such a warm and supportive environment.
Our almost 3 year has been attending The Gardner School since August and it's been so amazing for him! He has learned so much - he comes home everyday with new knowledge and I'm very impressed. His teachers have been phenomenal. I 100% recommend this school!
Communication has always been great with all the teachers and administration at Gardner. I've always had questions answered quickly and the kids have loved going in every day to learn and play with their friends.
First and foremost, our child looks forward to going to TGS everyday - he loves his teachers and classmates! We appreciate that there's a good balance of structure and free-play that's age appropriate. The facility is clean and we appreciate the clear communication through the app. We have peace of mind when our child is at TGS. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!
The teachers are deeply engaged with the kids each day, coming up with fun activities for them to learn - but also simply providing them a space to play. I also appreciate the clear communication from TGS staff.
The school is well staffed, structured, clean and has so many resources. Our teachers are absolutely phenomenal, and one in particular has worked so exceptionally well with our daughter and her social emotional growth.
Pros:
- Strong curriculum
- Good at the academic and SEL skills needed for K readiness
- Clean
- Good teachers
- Lots of extracurricular options
- Calm, safe environment
- STEAM room
- Summer program is fun and different
Cons:
- Too much use of iPads in class; too many photos/videos/app updates
- Too much use of videos on the computer in class
- Not really a community feel; not easy to get to know other parents; not many classroom events where parents can meet one another
- Gets expensive between tuition and the extra activities you sign up for
I can see TGS ensures the safety and wellbeing of my child (age 2). He is happy, he loves his teachers (talks about them all day long) and every day he comes home with new vocabulary and learnings. I trust the staff and know that he is in the best place he can be when not with us.
The Gardner School has a team atmosphere and everyone is working to take care of the children, teach the children and manage the reqiuerd paperwork in a professional manner that is easy for parents. There is also a static calendar that allows us parents to fully understand days off and early pickups.
Our daughter is learning so much and has adapted really well to her new environment. Teacher stability is great for consistency. Also communication to parents is clear, consistent, timely and relevant. We also appreciate the respect given to military personnel and veterans through the military tuition program.
I love how my child is treated like an individual and the teachers are so attentive and caring. I feel relieved knowing he is great hands. I love seeing the pictures during the day, knowing he is busy with activities and having fun.
