Review for Bayshore Headstart I am writing this review to warn parents about the unprofessional and unsafe environment at Bayshore Headstart, specifically in Miss Alexis' classroom (classroom five). My three-year-old son attended this school, and I was deeply concerned by the conditions and the treatment he received. Unprofessional Conduct and Unsafe Environment The school is dirty, unorganized, and unprofessional. I was appalled by the lack of cleanliness and the chaotic environment. The teacher, Miss Alexis, has been very inappropriate and unprofessional. My son has repeatedly told me that she hits him, squeezes his hand, and yells at him. When I confronted her, her response was dismissive and highly inappropriate, questioning why I still brought him to the school. Teacher's Behavior Miss Alexis' behavior is unacceptable. She appears to have severe issues, including being loud, unprofessional, and possibly substance abuse problems. Her appearance and behavior, including smoking excessively and having a strong odor, raise serious concerns about her fitness to be around young children. Lack of Support and Services Throughout the school year, I have been trying to get services for my son, but Miss Alexis consistently denied there were any issues, claiming he was doing well. This lack of acknowledgment meant the school district did not provide the necessary services. Only towards the end of the year did they start acknowledging the problems, which should have been addressed much earlier. Racial Insensitivity It has come to my attention that my son is the only Black child in the classroom, and Miss Alexis has demonstrated a lack of understanding and sensitivity regarding racial issues. Her communication skills are poor, and she does not know how to interact appropriately with the children or their parents. Immediate Actions Taken Due to the ongoing issues and my concerns for my son's safety, I have removed him from Bayshore Headstart before the end of the school year. It is traumatic for any child to endure such treatment, and as a mother, I could not allow this to continue. Despite requesting an emergency CSE meeting, the school district stated that nothing could be done at this point in the year, which is unacceptable. Conclusion My experience with Bayshore Headstart has been extremely negative, and I urge other parents to be vigilant about their children’s education and well-being. Ensure that your child feels comfortable and safe in their learning environment, and do not hesitate to take action if you suspect any form of abuse or neglect. The behavior and lack of support from Miss Alexis and the school reflect poorly on their character and the institution's mission.

Very cute environment 😊
