Discipline
| OVERALL RATING (4.8) |

Parents at this school, on average, believe that conflicts between children:
...are handled extraordinarily well in a way that not only gives me confidence in the safety of my child but also reassures me that my child (and his/her peers) are learning the early skills needed to socialize effectively with one another

Director's Description to School's Approach to Discipline
I try to talk to my children and explain why what they did was wrong. I also use Warnings, and then time outs. I NEVER hit or spank nor yell but I raise my voice when the situation is unsafe.
Director's Response to a Sample Discipline Scenario
Description of how teachers handle the following scenario: Child A and Child B are good friends and usually play together. One day, Child A decides to play with Child C and tells Child B, 'I don't want to play with you today. I'm playing with Child C instead.'
I believe they would comfort child B and get them involved with another activity.
Parents' Notes on Discipline, Health and Safety
Parent #1
ABC is located in an old portable building. I would LOVE for the school to repaint inside, or put up some new decorations. They have a wall of clowns that are very dusty- the children do not play with them, as they are just decorations, but EEK I'd love them to be gone!
