The Community Day School

This is probably the best preschool in pleasant view. The director knows what she's doing. This school is very organized too. My baby has been to a couple of preschools now and none of them is like community day school. Either my baby is coming home with a diaper rash or not being fed her bottles all day. These people at the community day school actually does their jobs. I wouldn't send your kid anywhere else, but here.

Started out great when our child was very young, about 6 months old. Trouble started a little before the year mark when she was constantly being moved around, she never had a consistent classroom, the amount of kids in the class would fluctuate constantly. This stressed her out quite a bit. She was usually exhausted by the end of the day and cried until bed time. The management here treats the facility much more like a business with a heavy money focus rather than a human focus. The employees complained of low pay and insane conditions on more than one occasion. Overall a bad place to entrust your child’s upbringing.

Have attended this school for 3 years now and absolutely love it! It hard these days to trust anyone but I know when I drop my child off that I have nothing to worry about. The office has always called to notify me if my child has gotten hurt or if they were concerned about an issue I had forgotten to mention from the night or weekend before. The teachers have always shown such excitement when they see my child coming through the door or coming into the building. And it is such a blessing to call them my village and to have my child coming home excited to talk about what she learned. So thank you for all that you do and continue to do for my sweet babe! We couldn't imagine taking her anywhere else!!

My wife and I have had our daughter at the Community Day School for 7 years. Our daughter has special needs, so her care is very important to us. As someone who works at a locally owned business I know turnover is hard, so I really appreciate long time employees. We especially appreciate the manager, Ms. Alexis. Ms. Alexis knows that our daughter may sometimes have a weird schedule, but she always works with us. In fact, I can't remember a time she said no to something we needed for our child. So I just want to say thank you to Ms. Alexis and her staff, your dedication to the job means so much to our family. We highly recommend the Community Day School!

We have been with the community day school for over 2 years. My daughter started in the infant room at about 6 months old and we absolutely loved this place. It was clean, the teachers were friendly and knowledgeable. As she moved up in age groups, she started learning sign language and we thought, this is great! As she got older they appointed a new director and we started noticing a much higher turnover rate in the staff. They had news letters when the first couple of teachers left, but after a while we had no idea who was coming and who was going. No one told us that these teachers were leaving, and no introduction was done when a new lead teacher took over the class. The kids were getting more and more unruly, and every time I walked in I was getting a report about my kid being either on the receiving or giving end of an incident. I would see how many reports were folded and lined up on the counter for all the parents. This place has really taken a turn for the worse!! We had a meeting with the direct and the teachers voicing our concerns as well as trying to come up with a way to get the behavior, for not only our child, but the 18 other children in the classroom, under control. I can’t count how many times we would come in to pick her up and the teachers have their heads down doing paperwork or cleaning something while the 18 kids are running around throwing toys at each other, hitting, pushing, bitting and punching each other. There’s absolutely NO STRUCTURE at this place anymore. They will not pay their teachers enough to keep them and will hire as part time only to avoid giving benefits. This will not keep the kind of teachers/child care workers around that I want my child to be around all day. There’s absolutely no stability here. It’s a real shame because they used to do such a great job. I sincerely hope they can find someone who is able to run it properly again, but until then I would never send my child there!
