If you are looking for a great preschool for your child look no further. This place is the best! Ms Mil is always nice, sweet and great communicator. She is... Read more always there to help and assist with every child's needs. I moved my child from a previous school to Academicise because there was no learning curve there, no structure and he was miserable crying at drop off after months. Now he is happy and excited to go to school every morning and play with his friends. what a change ! He loves his teachers Ms Jennie, Ms Aylin, Ms Norma and the whole team. He is always bringing cute art and craft with a smile on his face 🙂
It's clear to me that the director and the teachers care about the students and love their work! The staff warmly greet you at check-in and see you off at check-out. The school is safe and way cleaner that other schools we have toured with plenty of parking in front. They provide a variety of nutritious meals (less stress of what to make for lunch), assist with potty training and have lots of fun activities. My son in a span of few weeks has grown academically, socially and emotionally. He has learned so much already, talks more and looks forward to going there every morning. He is for sure going to stay here there til he graduates!
We are very happy with this school and I recommend it to any parents looking for quality preschool with an educational setting. We love the atmosphere and positive energy and we feel that our kid is in good hands. We are lucky to have found a caring group of educators who are dedicated to the well being and learning of each kid. Thank you Academicise!!Heidi A.
9/26/2023We transferred our 2.5 year old to AIP a few months ago and could not be more pleased.
CLEAN - from the initial orientation my wife and I were impressed with... Read more the cleanliness of the school. Not an easy feat with so many kids, but they somehow manage it.
FOOD - the school chef is legit. My daughter eats 2-3 servings of whatever meal they are serving everyday. They serve a variety of foods including Asian dishes like fried rice/chow mein.
ORGANIZED - at my daughters first drop off, asst director Jenny already knew who she was and her food allergies. They recognize and greet every parent and child by name each morning and kids are escorted in/out individually. At pickup they know what car you drive and get your child ready to go automatically and then provide a quick report of what they ate and/or any incidents.
RESPONSIVE - if you have any questions or concerns, the administrators are quick to address them with the teachers.
Our daughter is happy to go to school each morning and comes home clean and smiling. Top notch!james l.

My son went to AIP when he's 2 years and 4 months old during pandemic. AIP is super clean. The teachers showed their love and patience to him. He's a... Read more crying baby and it took him a while to adjust. Also the food at school is amazing. He really enjoys the food even he's a picky eater. Ever since he went to AIP, his vocabulary has been improved little by little with encouragement from the teachers. We really appreciate what AIP is doing to him. It is a recommendation to other parents if they are looking for preschool for their kids.

6/01/2022During covid, we were on a hunt for a preschool that would provide my child with a strong academic foundation, while also nurturing their creativity and social skills. I was... Read more also concerned about the food quality and the cleanliness of the facility. I am happy to say that Academicise exceeded my expectations.
The teachers use a variety of methods to engage the children, including hands-on activities, games, and songs.
The food is awesome, I'm sure it varies within child-child, however at minimum my kid eats 2 servings+. I am confident that they are getting proper nutrients they need to grow and develop.
In addition to academics and food, I was also impressed with the soft skill development program. The teachers do a great job of teaching children how to share, cooperate, and resolve conflicts. I've seen my child (although varies from child - child, mine took a while but based on character type)
The facility is also clean and well-maintained. The classrooms are bright and inviting, and the playground is gated, safe etc... I've had a couple instances where I saw semi-questionable activity nearby, I've reported this to Calvin (staff member) and they were already made aware through their surveillance system.
Finally, the drop-off and pick-up process at Academicise. The teachers are always friendly and helpful, and they always make sure that I know how my child's day went. I will always miss the words "2 servings | 1 nap | no bowel"
Overall, they've satisfied all pillars when it comes down to pre school hunting. Thank you for everything. My message, generally is directed to the hard working staff + owner(s), additionally huge shout out to individuals that i've interacted with most: ms jinny, mr calvin, mr chris, and mrs mil (forgive my spelling error)Thomas Y.

Our son has been at AIP from the age of 2 through 6. Looking back, I have to say the care and education he has received here have been excellent.... Read more The kids learn at an advanced rate, are given personalized attention, and are excited to go to school. Chef Maggie is also amazing. My son loves the food, regularly eating things he would be too picky to eat at home. During the pandemic, the school maintained the utmost hygienic standards, and our son rarely had any illness for the last three years. The classrooms are immaculate, and the toys are washed weekly. I am really grateful for the care provided and highly recommend AIP to any interested parents.

Best preschool ever. My son has been going to AIP since he was 2.5 yrs old. I did research and school tours to several preschools in the neighborhood and eventually... Read more picked AIP. There are couple reasons why.
1. The school is VERY CLEAN. They strictly follow CDC guideline and go beyond. They require kids and teacher to wear masks ALL the time (As someone work in heath care field, I think this is extremely important during COVID pandemic especially this age group has not been vaccinated yet.) They checked for signs and symptoms and sanitized everyone before entering and leaving the school, not to mention frequent hand washing and other hygiene practice. They also wash all the toys every week.
2. All the teacher and staffs are friendly and professional. My son didn't speak English at all and had never been to any school before joining AIP. The teachers somehow work their magic to calm him down and ease his nerve. Now he is happy and singing the songs he learned at school everyday. His teachers potty trained him and set his nap routine with ease. (Which I tried to do it myself and failed miserably). Academically speaking, he has been learning letters, colors, shapes and numbers at school and a lot more at AIP.
3. AIP serves HOT food. They have on-site chef to cook fresh lunch. They served healthy meals with ingredients from trader joe. All the meals were prepared with balanced nutrients and details. (They even cut the grapes in quarters to avoid choking hazards!)
4. The teachers and staffs are accessible and they communicate very efficient. They will talk to you when you drop off /pick up your kid or send emails and make sure school and parents are on the same page. If I have any concerns, I can talk to them and they respond right away.
5. Their drop-off (8-9:45am) and pick-up (4:30-6:00pm) hours are very parent-friendly.
Overall, my son is happy, safe and healthy at AIP. Definitely recommend!Mia K.

From the moment we enrolled our child here, it's been an incredible experience.
The staff at this preschool is exceptional. They are not just caretakers; they are educators and mentors. Their... Read more attentiveness to each child's needs is truly commendable. Our child has thrived in this environment, thanks to the caring and dedicated teachers.
Curriculum
One of the standout features is their commitment to structured and academic-based learning. It's heartwarming to see how they nurture our child's curiosity and thirst for knowledge. I believe this foundation will undoubtedly help shape a bright future.
Environment
Safety and health protocols are of utmost importance here, and that gives us peace of mind as parents. The facility is well-maintained, and you can tell that they prioritize the well-being of the children.
Activities
They also know how to make holidays special for the kids. From Valentine's Day to July 4th, and even fun events like "May the 4th be with you" and Thanksgiving to Christmas, they ensure that our child are not just learning but also having a blast.
In summary, if you're looking for a preschool that offers a holistic approach to childcare, this is the place. Our child loves it here, and as parents, we couldn't be happier. They have exceeded our expectations in every way, and we wholeheartedly recommend it to other families.iOR c.
9/10/2023My daughter started attending AIP when she was 2 year and 2 months old. Everyday she gets home, she is so happy. I could tell that she really had a... Read more great time and enjoyed staying at school. The school has a very strict Covid-19 protocol, all kids are required to wear mask, and get sanitized before entering school. All the teachers and staffs are friendly and professional, they truly cares about kids. The curriculum is fun and challenging. My daughter takes several art crafts and worksheets to home everyday. When she gets home, her face, body and clothes are all clean. Teachers change her clothes immediately when it gets dirty, and they change the diapers frequently. I am at ease when my daughter is at school because I know she will be taken good care of by the great staffs. I highly recommend AIP to every family.
