Candil Hall Academy

If you want your child to feel part of the family, not just a number– this is the place to be! Very personalized attention to all of your child’s needs, the staff is always friendly and immediately available to assist you and answer all of your questions. My daughter adores all of her teachers. She is eager to go to school e v e r y s i n g l e day, she is very comfortable in the school’s friendly and stimulating environment and that ultimatly transfers onto her academic achievements. It is hard to find such an academic gem nowdays, so if you are still looking for a place to send your little treasures this is the one!

We love this place! Our son and daughter have been attending Candil Hall for almost 6yrs now. We are treated like family. We love the plays and all the activities that they offer. The kids are growing up to amazing little people because of the teachers and staff here. Can’t say enough about the teachers. Year after year each one is amazing. I would recommend Candil Hall if you like a nice family atmosphere and with a solid education.

I have 2 children attending Candil Hall and have only good things to say about the staff. They show a genuine concern for the health and well being of our kids. They have a great schedule and send home Monthly newsletters with information outlining what they will be learning. The teachers are well qualified and devote individual attention to each child. Mrs. Michelle is amazing; she is patient, understanding and the kids love her! My kids are in early preschool and the environment at Candil Hall is nurturing and loving. I would recommend this school to any and all of friends and family. They are the best!

Parents PLEASE Beware…
My Wife & I experienced every parent’s worst nightmare on 02/​10/​2015. Our 4 year old son, who has been attending candil hall since he was 18 months old, went outside the school unnoticed while he was under their watch and was abducted by a stranger while he was in school… I received a call from Candil Hall’s Director of Operations on February 10^th at about 2PM that they had lost our son right after lunch, she informed me that someone had found him in the street and had drove him to their house. Candil Hall’s Director of Operations then said that the police have recovered our son and they want my wife and I to come to the school so they can finish their investigation.
As you can imagine my heart dropped, I called my wife at her job and headed to the school at what seemed to be the longest 15 minutes in my life.
When I finally arrived at the school there were a police officer & the School staff waiting for me. I asked them what had happened and the school director explained casually that there was a mishap where our son had left the school unnoticed right after the lunch break. Our son was then spotted by a lady that was driving on Rainbow Blvd who placed our child in her car and drove him to her residence and then called the police. The policeman picked him up from the ladies house and returned him to the school!
What was really shocking was when I asked them how he exited the school, they replied through the front door! I asked them how can he leave the school through the front door unnoticed? They carelessly replied that the person that is supposed to be upfront had stepped out for a minute! I was really disturbed by their behavior towards this incident; they all seemed MORE CONCERNED ABOUT THEMSELVES THAN OUR CHILD. Instead of apologizing or taking responsibility, they blamed our 4 year old’s desire to run & hide as the reason for this disaster. As a matter of fact since the incident no one from the school has called to check on our son or us!
Now we feel obligated to make all parents aware of what we went through due to the fact that even though this incident was reported to the DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES, CHILD CARE LICENSING and Candil hall now has a lack of supervision complaint on their record, it only remains there for one year. We did not know this but all parents have the option of contacting the DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES, DIVISION OF PUBLIC & BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, CHILD CARE LICENSING and get a history of all facilities in Nevada.
We ask all parents to contact Child Care licensing if they have concerns or are unclear about a child care facility’s history before they make their final decision.
In this case our son was found but we can’t help to think about what COULD have happened. A simple search on the LVMPD will tell you that there are 9 sex offenders that live within a one mile radius of this school. What if one of them would have got to our 4 year old before this lady did? If something happened to another child, we would be devastated that we did not do everything we could to protect all the children in this school. We certainly do not want any other parent to endure the horror that we experienced.

We have been clients here for three years. This is a family business and they treat their clients like family as well. We have seen very little change in staff, which is nice. The entire staff knows all of the kids and the kids are all friendly with each other. The school puts on a lot of seasonal plays which are always a lot of fun. The children are well taken care of, well fed, and have lots of fun. The summer camp is great for kids too. They take lots of field trips and always leave the kids looking forward to the next day. Once a month the school offers a weekend parent’s night out. The only reason I am not giving five stars is because sometimes the front desk gives information at the last minute instead of allowing you enough time to plan.
