School Reviews

I highly recommend and endorse The Optimal Learning Center-Sally Ride. Our 4 year old son attended the school. His and our experience with the school was absolutely amazing. The management and teachers were very kind, accommodating, and very qualified. Our son flourished as a result of attending this school. His social, communication, and behaviors greatly improved. We appreciated the updates, videos, and pictures throughout the day. Additionally, the teachers and the director communicated openly with us regarding our son and addressed our questions and concerns. My biggest regret is that I didn't know about Optimal Learning Center earlier so I could enroll my son sooner. I think this place is the area's best-kept secret in terms of childcare/school. I only wish that more childcare centers followed the same model and culture as The Optimal Learning Center.
