What parents say

After having all three of my kids, I have been here at one point or another over the course of the last 10 years. When my oldest two were there from 2017-2018. They loved and and the teacher were amazing and so helpful. The olny reason we left cause my husband got a job across the country. Flash forward 2024 my are back in Tehachapi, and my youngest is enrolled, and it is still one of the best daycare I have enrolled…

There are a select few fantastic teachers but the Director, school board, and a few other teachers are selective and two-faced. I experienced a great deal of favoritism to both teachers and students on behalf of the Director. They claim to have a very loving, Christian environment, but from my understanding Christ was not in the business of choosing favorites. I am very disappointed in this school.

The teachers and staff here are great and Pastor Ken seems cool. Our kids are learning a lot and clearly being loved on.
