Compton Children’s Academy, Centreville | Fees, Rankings, Address, Admission, Vacancies, Reviews & More

My son started with CCA when he was only 7 months ! Let me be completely honest I was so afraid these days you don’t hear a lot of positive things about childcare centers along with all of the school shootings any parent would be so afraid to send their child off not even knowing if they are going to be able to see them again ?????? but god promised me he will be in good hands and he surely was! For starters ALL of the doors are locked and each parent has to use their fingerprint to unlock the door. The directors office is facing the main entrance so she can see everything literally EVERYTHING along with a Fairfax county police officer patrolling the neighborhood so safety is 100 percent good with this school. Also , My son has built a relationship with his teachers and friends and it’s a blessing to see him grow with his peers on a day to day basis. He absolutely loves his teachers and so do I ! I’m not posting this review for just any reason I genuinely love these people so much. They are blessing in disguise! And to the single parents out there or families who’s going through financial hardships let me tell you THEY WILL WORK WITH YOU! All you have to do is be honest and transparent. They don’t judge you for being on any type of assistance or not living the “lavish “ life style. These people are so wholesome and humble and I’m so blessed to have them in my son’s life! They are always giving me reassurance and they definitely helped me with my baby when he was a new born ( first time mommy here ) I can go on and on about this school. Of course no childcare center is perfect they are going to have their days as to any normal school would but your child is in great hands with this school and it’s an honor to be apart of the CCA family ??????

We sent our child here to the Preschool Prep Class!!! The lead teacher was not gentle and escalated issues with the kids. My wife witnessed her tell a kid to not say no to a teacher which is unacceptable considering the importance of being able to say no in uncomfortable situations-i thought the messaging was off base and the manner in which it was conveyed was bound to be intimidating for the child.

The straw that broke the camels back was when the same teacher was harsh and not understanding at all when I went in for an event and had to be on a call while the kids were watching an exhibit in the backyard. I ended up leaving with my child at that time.

When we raised the issue to management it was brushed off without any follow-up.

Lunch lady in the kitchen was professional and courteous throughout and was very kind.

My oldest started at CCA nearly 4 years ago and we have nothing but wonderful things to say about this academy. Both of my children are currently enrolled and are thriving. They love their teachers and are learning so much academically as well as socially. The staff is attentive, responsive and are willing to work with parents for our children’s specific needs. The way they have handled the pandemic has been nothing short of amazing, with little to no disruption towards the children’s education and social interaction. I would recommend CCA to any parent looking for consistent, compassionate and constructive childcare.
