Parents' Comments
Parent #1
Early drop off experience was horrible. I never want to go back.
Parent #2
High turn over of teachers. 12:1 ratio in the class rooms.
Parent #3
The strengths of the school are that they provide creative, ever changing, fun learning games and play time for the kids and the quality of the teachers. They also handle separation very well. The weaknesses are the high turnover rate among the teachers and the poor maintenance of the toys. Replace old batteries please!
