Easton Country Day School

Deeply Concerning Environment for Young Children As a parent/former student/member of the community, I feel compelled to speak out. This school presented itself as a nurturing environment, but the reality was very different. The culture here was emotionally damaging for many young children. Concerns about rigid discipline, lack of empathy, labeling, favoritism and an overall toxic atmosphere were brushed aside or ignored consistently throughout the school year. Instead of fostering confidence and emotional growth, young students were often left anxious, unsupported, and in some cases, fearful. Communication with caregivers was highly unprofessional and inconsistent while feedback from students was routinely dismissed. Children deserve a space where they feel safe, understood, and valued. Unfortunately, this school failed on all those fronts. This is terrible to have to write. I strongly urge any parent considering enrollment to ask hard questions, talk to other families, and look very closely before making a decision.

My oldest daughter completed nursery school at ECD last year and will be starting the pre school program next week. My middle daughter will be starting nursery school next week as well. ECD is clean, organized, small class rooms, great education. They keep things fun for the children while they grow and learn. Shauna is so nice and responsive to any messages sent to her at any time of day. Cannot say enough great things about this school!

We registered our youngest for the Kindergarten program this school year per the suggestion of many local moms. I am thrilled that we did! Shauna is a fabulous instructor and it is clear that she has a passion for teaching and her students. Our daughter loves school and asks us on Saturdays and Sundays if today is a school day.
