My daughter Jayda, went here for 2 years ! Mrs.Debbie and Ms.Alicia were amazing to my daughter . She loved her friends , and all the teachers ! We miss you guys SO MUCH ! I would highly recommend for putting your child in here. My daughter got prepared for grade school and they taught her tremendously ! She is now over exceeding in grade school, and I thank Circle Of Friends for that!!
Horrid staff.
My son LOVED his time at COF!! He learned sooo much! He always had a lot of fun and made tons of friends. Ms. Debbi & Ms. Ellecia are amazing teachers!
My 4 year goes here. The best preschool. Great faculty and awesome teachers. So glad we got in when we did. There is a waiting list.
Outstanding!
This school seems super nice, but was overall very disappointing. My son started there in the middle of the school year (January), and had been out of school for 8 months due to the pandemic and our move. It was an adjustment for him. Instead of that being understandable and staff being patient and kind- it felt like it became personal. They acted overwhelmed with him and like he was a bad kid. There was a big incident in which I walked up and he was clearly in a time out crying alone at a picnic table (they say they don’t do time outs). The teacher at the pick up was aggressive and rude when telling me why he was there and acted like he deserved it. I personally don’t think any 3 year old deserves to be left to cry alone. Moral of the story, I changed schools and my son is doing amazing. The new school loves him, he is interacting well with peers, and calls it “happy school”. Thinking back to COF I don’t think any teacher or staff member said anything nice about him, and he refers to it as “sad school”. I feel awful for sending him to COF even for a few weeks.
Great school! Not only does my son love going to school every day (when is previous schools this was not the case) but I also know hes getting a great education and learning so much there.
If you are divorsed do not put your kids in this school. They gave my ex false documents so she could more child support from me and even wrote a letter to the court throwing me under the bus after I was paying them almost 900$ a month... Terrible way to run a business. They only have woman in their 'Circle of Friends'.
Our 2 year old had a great year here with Ms. Dana and Ms. Trinity. Unfortunately we had to relocate, we will miss this awesome daycare!
