Sinai Sun Academy

This preschool was once an amazing place with wonderful teachers. When we first started my son at Sinai Sun, Miss Cathie was the lead teacher and she was so great. She would give me suggestions about things to work on at home with my son, like practicing writing letters and working on his pincher grip. Unfortunately, 2 of the teachers left Sinai Sun right before the Fall 2015 session started and it has really been a mess at the school ever since. I sat in on a class with my son a few weeks ago and it was a disaster and I was promised a new teacher would be hired soon and things would improve. But teacher after teacher has fallen through and the school is in a desperate situation right now and not providing proper education. This left me scrambling, trying to find another preschool at the last minute; thankfully we found an amazing preschool with a fabulous teacher for my son. Sinai Sun is all hype right now, if you read their website calling themselves a «hybrid Montessori.» It’s a lot of talk and big ideas, but without a great teacher to lead the program, why spend that much money and drive all the way out to Ruby Hill when there are far better schools in Pleasanton? On a more personal note, when I informed the director, May, that we were leaving Sinai Sun, I endured days of unprofessional text messages and May tried to go behind my back and hire my own personal nanny as one of her teachers.

6 students to 2 teachers, nice facility in a very convenient location with loving care providers.
