Shepherd's Gate Academy, Brentwood NY

Worst first day of school. School is very disorganized. People are busy on their phones rather than doing their jobs. Students were supposed to get out at 330pm but rather this is the scene at 520pm with children still stuck inside the building.
Mr Joey claims this is the norm. He is at the front of the school sweet talking folks instead of getting students home.
This is beyond my comprehension.

My daughter loves shephards gate academy! She attended for after school and the program was so amazing we decided to enroll her in camp! I love that she is having fun, making friends and learning positive life skills through Bible teachings as well as through interactions with staff and peers. They are all absolutely amazing! God bless them! My daughter comes home happy every day

I was searching for a summer camp (3 weeks before school ends). Every place I called had a waiting list or had no room available. I reached out to a mom & dads group on Facebook out of desperation and received a message from the owner personally. Joseph Valentino of shepherds gate took the time out to ease my mind and set me up to come in and fill out a registration form for my daughter. I was hesitant to ask about the cost but he pointed me in the right direction to be able to get assistance. As a single mom it’s overwhelming most of the time. I was having such a horrible day and stressed to the max but he literally was a saving grace and eased my mind. Mr. Valentino was awesome and so informative. My daughter attended pre k here and loved it she still talks about her teacher two years later! But nonetheless this is an amazing school for your little one as well as their summer camp. I can’t thank mr. Valentino enough he’s definitely the best!
