Recent parent reviews
My daughter graduated from their Pre-K school in 2024, and I could say she learned a lot. She expressed how she loved the fact that they have a farm on their campus. She loved the outdoor lunch/snack. Their graduation ceremony is beautiful and touching. The first few days, there are delays with dismissal, but most schools have delays. Fast forward to 2025, she attended their summer camp program which she loved. She made new friends and loved Ms. Yessica and Ms. Vivian. Her younger sister attended their summer Jumpstart program and loved Ms. Karen. She also attended their summer camp after Jumpstart and she loved it and her teacher Ms. Nicole. She made new friends. She enjoyed their Friday talent shows and science projects. The only downside that I felt wasn't communicated was that if they are 4/5 years old, they cannot attend the trips unless one of their parents attend and they must be transported by the parent. In conclusion, their school and summer camp are wonderful and worth giving a try.
Madeline PantaleonAug 20, 20252 HOUR LONG BUS RIDES FOR SOME 4 YEAR OLDS!! Worst first day of school. School is very disorganized. People are busy on their phones rather than doing their jobs. Students were supposed to get out at 330pm but rather this is the scene at 520pm with children still stuck inside the building. Mr Joey claims this is the norm. He is at the front of the school sweet talking folks instead of getting students home. This is beyond my comprehension. Update: Student was removed from school and sent elsewhere. The school's process never improved and poor children are stuck in buses for nearly 2 hours each direction every day.
zahir rahmanSep 6, 2023My daughter loves shephards gate academy! She attended for after school and the program was so amazing we decided to enroll her in camp! I love that she is having fun, making friends and learning positive life skills through Bible teachings as well as through interactions with staff and peers. They are all absolutely amazing! God bless them! My daughter comes home happy every day 💓
Melody HenryAug 18, 2023If I were able to leave 0 ZERO stars I would, especially to the staff who highly lack communication. What kind of place does not communicate with the parent of the child in an effectively manner. This summer camp was a dissapointment.
Meg EuncieJul 21, 2022I had a bad experience with the communication during the summer time period. I spoke with Nancy and she is great, she is very understanding and helpful.
Yeni SantosJul 21, 2022I don’t care how good the camp might be. When at first impression, I can’t communicate effectively with the office staff. They are very unprofessional and not knowledgeable. They need better customer service skills.
