I am beyond thankful for this school and ministry. I had four out of my five kids go through this preschool in the last 11 years. Mrs. Stroup is the reason we came back each year. Her kindness and love show every morning as she greets our kids. What a blessing they are to our community! The teachers are also dedicated and loving, my youngest have thrived in this preschool!

Both of my children attended this preschool and had wonderful experiences! Their attention to academics had my kids more than prepared for kindergarten, and we have made lasting friendships with some of their preschool classmates and their families. Highly recommend!

We switched to Indian Run Preschool after lack of communication at another area preschool. We have been blown away with the communication from staff and the care our daughters have received here. Any question we have had we’ve received a prompt response from the teachers or the director Julie. They’ve helped our daughters excell academically and socially. IRP set the foundation for them to love school and learning! We can’t wait for our last daughter to attend here!

All three of my children have attended IRP and I cannot say enough about the program. Julie Stroup is a wonderful director and all the teachers are so kind and loving. The program allows children to engage in play during these early preschool years which is so important to their development and our family is forever grateful to IRP and the amazing staff for all they do!

It's unfortunate to leave a review of a bad experience with a Christian organization but it must be done. There were specifically 3 occasions when we expressed concerns for our child at this preschool. The first was when he fell 3 feet from the platform on the playground slide and hit is head, which we were not notified, so we reached out and asked to which they confirmed and apologized they forgot to share with us. The teacher apologized but the director was condescending, unapologetic and defensive. The second was when he was being bullied by another child and the director stated that they are just learning to play together. Sure, but after multiple times of either hitting or pushing there needs to be further discussion, not more defensiveness of how they are ok with the children treating each other in that manner. Lastly was a teacher, yes teacher, pushing our child in an aggressive manner while saying "why is it so difficult to find your place". When expressing our concern, we were again met in a defensive nature, and even denial, while instead placing blame on our child saying he made up the story. Obviously, there is no reason for a child to make up such a story and it's certainly not how our child talks, so it definitely was the teacher who said this. As a result, they kicked our child out of the preschool. Yes, we expressed concern, and they responded by removing our child from any future classes. While raising the issue to the chair of the board and the pastor I organized a meeting to discuss and ask they take action but instead I was met with their final decision already being made as they had refund check in hand and only was listening to let me know they back their decision without any further investigation. Don't bother raising any issues here as it will be met with a defensive nature each time and if it happens more than once they are likely to remove your child. Still disappointed with their decision, I reached out to the superintendent who didn't even bother returning my call. This organization needs to move into the 20th century and change how they operate, and update their outdated curriculum, or they will continue to lose parishioners and support. It's no wonder they are always having a difficult time filling each year's class.

Both of my kids as well as my nephew have gone through the preschool program at Indian Run. I can not say enough good things about this program. One of the best things about this program is the communication between the director and teachers with the parents. The parents are kept informed of what their little student is learning, pictures are sent daily and emails are answered very promptly. The director of the program individually greets each kid in the morning by their name, making them feel important and welcomed. She also makes herself available to parents for questions or concerns. All of the teachers my kids have had have been wonderful. I feel that both of my kids were fully ready to transition to kindergarten after finishing at Indian Run.

Both of my children went through Indian Run Preschool. We loved our experience in all classes. As a school teacher I know our children were very prepared for Elementary school thanks to the director and teachers at IRP. My kids were given a positive first school experience that has set them up for success academically and socially.

By far the best preschool in the area. The communication and teaching at the school were outstanding. Both are children attended for over 4 years! We still have another year to go with enrichment classes that pair with half day kindergarten. The level of care and attention our children received was top notch. We recommend this school to all our friends and new parents.

We switched to Indian Run after our daughter struggled at another area preschool and she excelled there! Our daughters have loved all the teachers they have had. All have been very attentive and helped them grow socially and academically. We can't say enough good things about the program and all the staff!

disappointed by the interaction we've had with the director and other higher leadership staff and Chair. brought up a few concerns and each concern met with defensiveness from the director. From bullying to a teacher pushing our child, the old school style needs to get with the times and have an actual conversation to remedy situations appropriately.

This is the very best Pre school in dublin. We have tried around 8 pre-schools and day care among our 2 kids and this is by far at the top in all aspects. My son enjoys every moment of his school and is always eager to go back and has learned a lot. Mrs Auker is very encouraging and always friendly with kids and they enjoy her class. Very impressed with Mrs. Julie as she is very prompt in all communication and is the most familiar face at the preschool. I don’t write a lot of reviews, but this is indeed much appreciated pre-school!
