275 Cross St, Weirton, WV

One parent describes the staff and programs as wonderful, noting that teachers quickly alleviated their pre-enrollment fears. Another reviewer praises the early head start and birth-to-three programs as the best they have experienced. A single negative comment cites a bus breakdown that prevented attendance, though it is unclear if this reflects a recurring operational issue.
