Sunshine Montessori Academy

My review is 2 parts; the 1^st part is a fact and the second part is my own opinion.
Read this before placing your kid in this day care or any other day care.
I came across this article about violations in day cares in San Antonio and guess who I found on the list.
They had 5 high risk violation; a teacher did not know how many kids in her class, letting an unknown lady follow kids to classroom, a big whole in the fence in the playground, operation noncompliance with standards (by not informing parents of incidents immediately),
I will start by saying that I am not a picky person. The only time i had to change a day care is when i moved. Of course, i always have concerns but no place is perfect.
My kids spent only a month in this
is a bad place for many many reasons in my opinion.
First, I thought i wanted a place that is a little bit strict for my kids to prepare them for school later on. They are only strict in a sense that they want kids to be sitting on a chair and not moving the whole time. They don’t want kids acting like KIDS. So every time i drop them off, I hear the teacher screaming at kids to sit down. I have not seen them sending projects home like other day cares do. I don’t know what they do all day long besides sitting.
The kids see at least 4 teachers a day (they are not even the same teachers every day). It took my kids a long loooong time to warm up to this place especially my 1.5 years old who is a kind of a kid that would run to strangers in the park for a hug (He saw 7 teachers in a month). On top of that, the teachers in the early morning and late after noon are only watching kids. They don’t even care to take kids to potty. My other 3.5 year-​old always have accidents in the car on our way home because no one is taking care of him after 3.30. The late afternoon teachers are basically mute. I have not heard them speak or react when a parent comes to pick up kids. I am not even sure if they speak English.
They also have a big screen TV that was always on when I am picking up. So my guess is that they turn TV at 3.30 until the place closes.
They claim that they have certified teachers and they give home work to kids. Do not fall into that. They truly do not care about kids, their development, or performance.

We love this school! The teachers are all so welcoming and my daughter can’t get enough of this place. Going on 4 yrs now and the things this school has instilled and taught her will definitely go a long way. Curriculum is very structured yet still very fun for kids to absord and learn. Definitely recommend this academy to all.

I have a bad experience too, had my baby there for couple of months were the worst months ever, she had all kind of bits and scars, the worst of all, the supervisor there convinced my that my daughter is bad and aggressive to the other kids beating and thats how she got bits and scratches, finally when i went to pick my daughter after work i saw her with big scratches in her face and as usual the supervisor said «thats how kids are» when i got into an other daycare my daughter stopped crying when i leave and when i come to pick her up. And the new daycare always praise how sweet she is to everyone. This daycare got me misunderstand my own beloved daughter. Stay away from this daycare parents please!!!
