[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hello,
My son went for about 5 months. It was a disaster. He barely learned anything. We transferred to our local public school and by the end of the year was thankfully on target with his peers. That is thanks to our and his hard work. I know a few parents with similar stories. They claimed we were bad parents, he was a special needs child in need of therapy. Multiple doctors and real teachers disagree. The worst part is how they made me and my family feel. It took me over a year to really accept that this wasn't our fault. Now many of the founding families are coming to the same conclusion. I hope they shut down as they are not qualified to be teachers.

New poster here.  I know Jill and what she says is accurate.  Her experience also wasn't unique.  Other children who had behavioral or academic challenges in that environment were ...forcefully... referred to therapy or medical assessment by the lead teacher, some even as a condition of continued enrollment.  Parents talk to each other (even when the school tells us we shouldn't).  I know of at least 8 cases.  They were wrong about my kid as well.

Also, Jill is outing herself enthusiastically at the bottom because Silver Oaks had a yelp review she left of them taken down based on her using an account that wasn't attached to her name.  This was discussed at a board meeting.  Being censored tends to make people more angry... it was a poor move on the leadership's part.  Better to own up to failings and try to improve.    [/quote]
