Avoid at all costs

Where oh where do I begin. I started my daughter in Jan was told it’s free, PK graduation comes - she’s not in the system & the poor excuse of a ceremony was held up just to be forced to hold an absent students diploma for a pic, that I certainly am not framing. Then I’m calling texting for the new year info bc I was never added to receive emails, come to find out there’s a scholarship to avoid paying $600 a month, but wait! The student has to turn 5 before 9/1.. my daughter is 9/27.. im like whatever I make wonderful money I’ll pay the $600.. if it’s worth it.. Then come to find out that doesn’t cover aftercare, I receive a letter 2 months after the fact that I owe $350 which doesn’t even add up to what she really stayed for & I say something to be then told that she attended for free the semester prior.. well that’s all of what you told me, don’t throw it in my face now . My daughter never had the flu, strep, or was hitting or BEING hit until starting this “school”. Many children with special needs are there mixed in with regular kids & one boy is obsessed with my daughter and always pulls her hair and such. The “playground” is a joke.. donated toys for babies nothing for toddlers and up fr… The reverend husband drives a corvette, wife principal drives a Camaro.. & they ask for money/donations all the time. Silly things like hey we’ll give them chips and play a movie for $6. Not to mention 1 day there was a homeless man sleeping in one of their vans.. how the hell did that even get to happen?! They’re very unsafe and suspicious. My final straw? My daughter had the biggest cookie dough order put in.. I go to pick up.. and I’m looking at 1 box with 7 tubs in it… where’s the other $500 worth?? The staff Sue then speaks to me as if I’m lying about the what orders and that these are the only ones paid online…. First of all most of the orders were paid and dropped off in CASH by my mother personally. Second of all, the group number to put for scan pay was WRONG, and we weren’t told the right one till midway fundraiser. So where’s Mirna who looked at my mom with 2 heads like she didn’t know what she was talking about when she dropped it off and counted the money in front of her ? Oh she’s out sick and they can’t find the list.. so I show them it (lucky we had a picture!!) and was told they’ll try their best to look for my orders but no promises …. Um excuse me ? I need them found, my moms a nurse these are doctor and nurse orders who’ve spent their hard earned money to help your “school” & best you can tell me is we’ll try ? She tells me she doesn’t appreciate being yelled at when promise to Lord himself I was level toned.. you’re mad I’m assertive about right from wrong. Then I’m walking out & the boy who I guess is the son of the principal (whole damn underground family operation): “that’s not needed to be rude” I said I wasn’t, it’s literally always something with this place, if you had cookie dough orders would you be mad he says “I don’t care about cookie dough!” I literally waved my hand and walked out in a “oh you’re a useless brick wall” way, to which he says “ my mom will be hearing about this” I said “ILL CALL HER MYSELF” what 😂 & did to which she says “I have a camera in my office were you being rude to my staff” girl no they were being rude to me which ofc she just exudes the character of a “defend my incompetent staff” & proceeds to talk to me as if I’m someone on the street! I said I pay $600 a month for her to go to school here just to continuously have problems to which she says well she’s not suppose to be in kindergarten anyway so if you wanna take it there we can take it to the floor I said WHO ARE YOU TALKING TO! YOU CALL YOURSELF A PRINCIPAL! A CHRISTIAN ONE! And hung up, headed straight to another school, enrolled her nice & safely & was actually told by THEIR principal that “EVERY SINGLE STUDENT FROM THERE FAILS HERE.” And that their teachers are NOT real teachers.. then is when it all made sense! At least my daughter was the smartest in her class here per KG Ms. Heidy AVOID AT ALL COSTS 😁

My daughter attended grace at both campuses.when se moved to the second campus is where the issues started cops there all the time got kids there threatening to kill themselves trying to get pregnant high school kids dating younger kids there .when I moved my daughter to a different school they encored transcript requests . Dr.Tubbs would answer my calls or messages.when my daughter was at grace she was all honor roll.we were even told she was ahead of her grade then when we transferred we found out they aren’t giving the correct class so now she has to miss her 8th grade history class to take the 7th grade history that is required .which means she has to take summer school to catch up .and when I tried to contact Dr.Tubbs she won’t answer me and when I go to the school she’s not there or I’m told she’s busy.Definitely won’t recommend this school.

I was at my wits end with my daughters other school. They told me that they believed she couldn’t progress any further in school. I was devastated. I looked around a lot for different schools. I liked that they called themselves an inclusive chrstian school. I meant with Dr Tubbs who I found to be a caring wonderful lady and I broke down in her office describing all the painful things I and my daughter went through with the other school and she told me about her vision for a school that loves all and teaches all. I am so impressed with Grace Education Academy and all they’ve done for my daughter in the short time they’ve had her. She got promoted to fifth this year which was something I wasn’t sure was going to happen after what the other teachers at the other school were telling me. Thank you Dr Tubbs for starting this amazing school and for all the care and concern you show for all your students. Your child can succeed here no matter what anyone else has told you.
