CBI Academy Preschool, Staten Island | Fees, Rankings, Address, Admission, Vacancies, Reviews & More

As a mother of three young boys, I chose CBI Academy because of the strong leadership of their director, Ms. Ellen Shear, and their creative, engaging, and rigorous curriculum.

CBI has been a wonderful place for my boys to learn in a clean and colorful environment. As parents, we are fully informed on what our children learn through the week and are given regular family projects and suggested activities to reinforce their learnings at home. Their monthly themes have engaged my young boys in learning their shapes, numbers, colors, and letters. They support their creative learning through regular art projects, music, and cooking sessions. In addition, the warm and supportive environment allows them to explore themselves as individuals and support the development of their social skills with their classmates.

I decided to send my oldest boy who is now 6 to CBI almost 4 years ago, and have subsequently enrolled my 4 and 2 year olds in their program. I have utmost confidence and trust in the staff of CBI. I know that they fully care about the safety and overall development of my boys. I do feel my boys have grown substantially under their guidance.

This place is a hidden gem. As a teacher, I was very very picky about where I sent my son. This was a great choice for a plethora of reasons. Not to mention that the price is very reasonable. They are so accommodating and my son absolutely loves it! I can’t get him to leave. He loves it so much that I decided to put him in full time!

This is the best place for your little ones. Teachers are nice and friendly, my kids absolutely love this preschool. They have everything kids need – safe and healthy environment, great teachers, clean facilities, good food and amazing atmosphere. I would rate them 10 stars!
