We have loved Bell Tower School over the past 3 years. Each of my 3 kids are excelling in 3 languages (full curriculum of read/write/speak, math, and social studies in Mandarin, Spanish and English) and both emotional development and community are great. Cost is very competitive and before/after care (7am-6pm) is included. They also offer tap, ballet, jazz, PE, music, and student shows 2x year.I will be keeping my kids there as long as possible- their test results are high, they’re very happy, and school administrators are responsive when I need them.

My son is 7 years old and has been attending BELL Tower school for two years. The program has amazing teachers for every language. The school is pretty diverse. Small campus but expanding.. Best of all my son is learning to speak three languages.

I just had a tour at Tell Tower School with the director Adriana Spik this morning. As I have toured many schools, this is the worse experience so far. In June 2018 I entered our information on the website of Bell Tower School and requested to have a tour. The school set up an appointment for me on Aug 23rd, assuming we were applying for fall 2018. Firstly, when I met with Ms Spik, the secretary prepared a preschool package for her while I was looking for a Kindergarden in fall 2019. Ms Spik told me their school started the first week of August and this is their 3rd week of school. Ms Spik also told me she would not have scheduled a tour with me this early if she had known I am looking for fall 2019. Secondly, Ms Spik was not feeling well and did not have much patience when I asked any questions throughout the whole meeting. At one point, I asked what was the student-teacher ratio, she replied, I already told you, it is 12-1 in preschool and 18-1 in elementary school, thats the law. Thirdly, I happened to meet one family of 2 daughters currently enrolled at Bell Tower School at Souplantation last week. The mom old me their older daughter started BTS 1st grade and is at 2nd grade now; their 2nd grade and 3rd grade are combined. I asked this mom why the 2nd and 3rd grade are combined. She replied many students left after Kindergarden. I asked Ms Spike about the combined classes. She told me they have tons of students for their preschool (they accept students at 2.5 years old), but they combine 2nd and 3rd grades as well as 4th and 5th grades because they are not open one grade for just 8 students. She also said many BTS students left Kindergarden because they can attend public schools for free. That is not true. Many private schools are able to retain their students until high schools. Lastly, at the end of the meeting, Ms Spik asked me if I have any more questions, I asked to see the classroom and see how teachers teach their students. Ms Spik said no and led me to the door. This is the first time I toured a school and was not allowed to observed the classroom. In conclusion, BTS is very disorganized and Ms Spik is simply RUDE.
