Schools in Asheville, NC

“We have two children at The Academy of Asheville and have been so pleased with this school. The teachers go above and beyond to help prepare our kids for kindergarten and the leadership (Jenny & Kim) do a wonderful job of maintaining a stable, predictable, clean, and high quality education environment. I would highly recommend this school.”

“My daughter and I absolutely love Childcare Network. She has never been in a daycare before and started at about 9 months old and has already grown so much. She is always so happy and smiling ear to ear when she sees the building. Her teacher Mr. Benjamin has done an amazing job teaching her and helping her open up and becoming more social. The staff is incredibly sweet and supportive. I love how everyone is so willing to help one another!”

“We've had our child at this location for over 2 years now and while things haven't been perfect, we're very appreciative and thankful for the support and care the staff have given us and our child.For prospective parents:+ Communication from the teachers and management to the parents is clear and consistent.+ The teachers and staff try their hardest to teach and provide the best care and experience they can.+ Other parents have been nothing but kind and helpful.+ The facility has more than we would expect from a preschool and then teachers are always surprising with fun new activities.- Our primary issue is that too often the classrooms are over filled and you can sense that the teachers (and all the staff for that matter) are overworked some days.The staff tried their best to communicate and anticipate days they might not have enough space for every child and they do a real good shuffling kids to make sure there's a better distribution.Overall we've loved how much our child has grown here and we really appreciate her teacher of over a year, Miss Lauren!”

“The educators and staff are an extended family to our two boys. My husband and myself looked no further because Kiddie Academy checked all of our boxes. This educational daycare is secure, clean, the teachers make learning fun and therefore my children were stimulated and were excited to learn. Our oldest son recently graduated, started Kindergarten and his teachers were over the moon because he is ahead of his classmates. He is now in advanced classes because Kiddie Academy’s educators are accredited and they laid the foundation.”

“I was a Fall Leadership Semester student and I proudly say that my Outward Bound course changed my life. I was headed down a bad path and was encouraged by my family to see what courses NCOBS had to offer. I finally landed on "Go big or go home" and decided the 65-day course was the one I wanted to do. My instructors were so caring and supportive and truly provided an incredible experience. Yes, it was insanely hard, but I think that's the point of Outward Bound. Showing students that life isn't easy and there will be tough obstacles in life is important. What's more important is teaching people of all ages the tools to communicate with compassion and work with others through hard times, and my Instructors did just that. I still stay in contact with my crew members and we laugh and cry about some of the crazy stories we have. I LEFT MY COURSE THINKING EVERYONE ON EARTH SHOULD TAKE AN OUTWARD BOUND COURSE. I couldn't be happier with my decision to enroll at NCOBS as oppose to another Outward Bound school because of the people I met and relationships I was able to make with their field and office staff. 10/10 would recommend to young adults and parents.”
