Discipline
| OVERALL RATING (4.4) |

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
Utilizing the 'Time Out' method we separate the child from the incident and explain to him/her that their actions were inappropriate. The child stays in a quiet time for one minute for each year of age.
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.'
We would guide the child and encourage all inclusive play. Also an attempt to empathize would be made.
