Yes. I feel like it help my daughter be ready for Kindergarten and now it's preparing my son for Kindergarten

The staff did a very good job providing materials and keep everyone involved as much as possible.

Parent/Teacher conference went well. I like that their are assessments done at school and an ASQ done at home to make sure that children are developing appropriately for their age.

You all are doing a great job - would be nice to hear more about my child's development through your lens but I know he is well cared for.

Great - I feel bad you have to pay for an app and get everyone to use it but it seems to work just fine and does the job

Thank you! Keep up the amazing work!

Continue to support students' affective needs (social-emotional), particularly constructive conflict resolution and childrens' anti-racism training.

Good! I know our teachers put a lot of work into designing these remote lessons for our students.

Thank you for the conferences, I know it's a lot of work! I want reassurance that my child's presence in the classroom is valued, just as they are. A strengths-based approach is always welcomed, as parents are sometimes anxious about the question, "is my child liked at school?"

Yes, you are doing great! Thank you for your hard work, and for protecting our students AND yourselves!

Thank you for all your hard work during these unprecedented (well, in a century!) times. Our children and we as parents appreciate you!

Amazing, so many fun activities and programs to help engage better social behavior and different learning units to really expand their interests.

My son loved to see his friends and teachers he had been missing. They included fun activities to bring them together and to incorporate what they were doing that week for remote learning.

Thank you for all you do! You are amazing teachers

Yes! I love this program. It has helped our son so much with learning and knowing how to act around others.

Nope! Love this program and refer it to anyone who asks

I think your doing a wonderful job! I feel safe bring my child to school which has been especially important this year. I think you do a great job balancing play, table top work, group activity, and focused attention where needed. I've been impressed over several years with the care and love you put into the program. We enjoy the dinosaur school and have learned skills for use at home as well. I feel included in the learning process and always know how my child is doing.

Yes!!! We are on kiddo two in the program. I know it helped our older child be prepared for Kindergarten but it also helped him feel like part of the Moody community. He grew socially and academically. I also feel likw you did a great job meeting both kids where they were and getting them up to speed.

Remote learning went as well as possible. It went well with our older child but was harder with the 3 year old. However he did enjoy all the projects, mini classes, and the cool remote classroom.

I enjoy parent teacher conferences. It helps me know in detail where my child is and concrete things I can do to help them improve.

Yes, I love the detailed emails and think they include a good connection to the school as well. I also like the details at pick up. The app works great for scheduling. I have always gotten a prompt response when I email or call. A plus. It is way way better than my last center too.

I think it is going smooth and am impressed with the amount of order with such small kids. The process is well thought out and easy to use.

Thank you. We love Hiking Tikes and are so grateful to have it. I have been so impressed overall and it has only gotten better each year and this is year 3.

Nope! Just keep on keepin’ on!

We missed conferences in the fall, but previous conferences have all been helpful. I feel like the timeframe can be rushed.

Once covid permits, I hope parents will be able to attend parties and some of the other events for the kids

Perhaps a dino school session geared toward parents ( I know the info for parents is in print and sent home, but something be zoom to discuss might be helpful

It has been great! Potential point for improvement-- more communication about what is being worked on at school and ideas for how to supplement/ reinforce with students at home

Trying to do online preschool is likely very challenging for his teachers and I so appreciate everything they did! My son particularly enjoyed the videos that made him feel connected to his teachers and classmates

Yes, it has been. I'm sure parents have different levels of desire for communication. I like all of the info and would like more --- daily might be too much to expect, but a note comprehensive weekly plan would be helpful

Yes. My daughter loves going to school to socialize with her friends, learn from her wonderful teachers and comes home with something new to tell me everyday she goes.

The staff has done a wonderful job keeping the parents informed of what is going on and following all recommended guidelines. My wife and I were nervous at the beginning of the year but after seeing the staff come together and implement their protocals our minds have been perfectly at ease.

I have no issues with the way anyone at Ralph Moody communicates with me and my wife. Every time there is something new we always receive a timely and informative email.

The Hiking Tikes staff (Ms. Tonya, Ms. Jazzy & Ms. Kim) are doing an excellent job in a most trying year. They have been able to communicate any new change effectively and are easily accessible for any questions that might come up. They did a great job with our son last year and are continuing to do so this year with our daughter. These women deserve a medal and a raise!

The staff are amazing! My student feels really comfortable and happy to go to school. We see lots of learning every week.

Yes, the program covers age appropriate material and we're confidence the he is ready for kinder in the fall.

Great, we feel that the environment and structure allows for learning productive play that encourages discovery

We attended one, it was good to see friends. But it wasn't good format for our student, overwhelming.

THe conference was great, we got good feedback on our student and actionable recommendations

The timing was very hard for us as that was usually when our child was waking from naps and he either was too cranky or still asleep. A morning option would be great and then maybe there would be fewer kids per call and less overwhelming

Thank you for all that you do!

You guys are doing amazing considering we are in the middle of a pandemic. Communication is key and I could not be happier with how well you communicate. You all have patience and do amazing. I especially like how you help the kiddos with separation anxiety. You with distracting and having the kiddos help and get distracted at drop off. Also when kids dont nap you work with to just rest

I feel the program excels. My child comes home happy and i am constantly seeing her sing and say things she has learned. When it sniws she links it to winter. She sings the days of the week.

Remote is very tough for all kids. So in preschool it is harder. My daughter did not like it. I foynd it was much harder to get her engaged and to do the work we struggled with online.

I love the talk about emotions, the songs, the review of days/numbers/letters, and I love the projects she brings home

LOVE IT!! I love that she's learning to take direction from teachers! And making friends! And being creative, thank you!

You did it right! The pre-recorded videos were the way to go. The crafting kept us going for weeks.

If a child is recognized to be ready for more advanced materials please alert the parent or offer to provide different home exercises

It's great - much preferred to remote, of course! My kid likes his friends and likes seeing his favorite teacher!

Actually there is so much communication, sometimes it's overwhelming and important info gets buried.

I find the conferences very helpful, and appreciate suggestions on what we can do at home to support what our daughter learns at school.

Thank you for teaching our children!
