Don’t send your kids to this school the supervisor is unprofessional the teachers don’t have no experience I opened my son pull up because he said his “butt is itchy” yesterday and they didn’t wipe him properly if I didn’t have work he wouldn’t be going there at all he will be leaving soon! This is unacceptable! Then I bring it to the attention and they act like it’s no big deal!
My son went here for a little bit of time and I went again so he can start fresh. When I went to find out information about his teachers & class rooms she told me I had to wait until 8:30AM But mind you I didn’t know where I was going and the lady that works in the office was very rude and disrespectful she smuched me and I had to tell her not to touch me if the other guy was working there I wouldn’t have no problems.
My kids attend the after school care program here and absolutely love it! They look forward to seeing their teachers especially Mrs. Dorthy! They are kind and help them with their homework! My kids always look forward to being there!
Unprofessional & unorganized. An incident occur & apparently the teacher was terminated that same day due to the issue but I wasn’t notified.
My kids have been going there since babies and i never had a problem with any of the teachers they all have there own way they teach amd are with the children but they treat the kids well cause my children dont complain
