Love this school all 3 of my boys went here for pre-k. Definitely awesome staff and taught my children well. Pick up and drop off process is a pain and could be sorted out in a better fashion. But everything else absolutely love this school.
My daughter has been in school for 1 year with teachers Ms. Marshon and Ms. Widad. She loved her class and learned a lot of skills from Ms. Marshon and the lovely Ms. Widad. I recommend these two teachers because they teach with love for my kids.
My son started 3 year old preschool and within two days I removed him. While watching in the classroom door window I watched my son be yanked from a chair and then the chair pushed back and he was shoved back into the chair. When I addressed this to the school they did an “investigation” and of course said that he was doing something that he shouldn’t have been doing and needed redirected. While I’m sure he needed redirected being shoved is not acceptable to me, there are so many other ways to redirect. I’m very disappointed that this is what they call acceptable. If this rating could be a zero I would do that.
Ms Crystal and Ms Vanessa are the best. I can tell they care and I have noticed a lot of different things with him getting smarter from being in class with them.
My daughter learned a lot and loved going to preschool everyday. Ms. Kerri and Ms. Felicia are great!
