This is our first year at CHA and we are absolutely thrilled. Our child has thrived both academically and socially in the three months he has been enrolled. Our only regret was that we were not at CHA sooner!

We came to this school after not being happy where we were. Our children are happy and adjusted easily. The environment is caring and nurturing. It is a great balance of academic and social. If your child is ahead in one subject, they are able to tailor the curriculum to suit them. There is a great balance of working hard and playing hard.

This review if for the North Campus of this school. We have transferred our kindergartner here from Medina Elementary. The result was a much happier child who is making great academic progress. The teachers and staff at this school work together to nurture each child's individual potential. They tailor the curriculum to challenge and encourage greater achievement. CHA has a caring environment and high academic standards.

The administration changed 2 years ago and the school has gone very much down hill as a result. The administration is a rubber stamp to the for-profit fortune 500 or 1000 company that owns the school (Bright Horizons). BH is very knowledgeable in the field of daycare centers, but not in elementary and middle schools. The communication between the administration and parents is poor, and many parents are very dissatisfied with the current situation but feel stuck until they apply for 5th or 6th grade. The dwindling enrollment in the upper grades (beginning in 4th grade) is of great concern, yet the school doesn't seem to focus on student nor teacher retention. Right now, there are only a handful of students signed up for the middle school grades. Parents took a survey recently and the results showed the the value of the education vs. the price paid is in the toilet...
