Today my daughter was suppose to go to class,we did everything in the application.When we got there to her school the first dat they tell us that they dont have a spot for my daughter. And my daughter felt really sad and In my opinion that was disrespectful.Also we would always write to Mary (someone that works there) never responded to all the emails we sent,and they never even took the time to say earlier that there was not a spot for my kid expect they said it her first day when she was all ready and excited.

We sent our son Tripp to Rosarians Early Childhood Education class and couldnt be happier. The Montessori program has helped him to learn and achieve by leaps and bounds, and having been home the first three years of his life, being in a classroom with 4 and 5 year olds to serve as surrogate big siblings to show him the ropes really helped to ease his transition. Ive only heard positive comments about Rosarian in the community and I can see why.

Our 2.5 year old daughter just spent her first year of preschool at Rosarian Academy and we couldn't be more pleased. She loves it at Rosarian and has learned so much this past year. We are incredibly thankful for her teachers and all of the staff for the love and support they have given her. They have also been so patient with us we experience all of this for the first time, communicating every step of the way. Our girl can't wait to go to school every day!

We are so grateful for the education, love, and nurture that our daughter receives at RA. She just started this year in the Junior Toddler classroom, and we look forward to sending her to camp this summer and back in the Fall. This goes above and beyond daycare. She is truly part of her class and school community.

With our oldest entering 7th grade and 2 more to follow, there is no place in the county that I would place my children for these key years of their life. RA provides a foundation like no other that I have no doubt will carry through their lives. From not only their strong religious base and their education but the key elements in life that make each and everyone of us a well rounded citizen making an impact in this life for the good.
