Parents' Comments
Parent #1
Initially when I enrolled my child I thought this was a wonderful environment (home based, small). But as time went on, I found the school was quite the opposite. This is more but I think this is enough.
Parent #2
One long-time teacher seemed disinterested in the children.
Parent #3
My daughter has never said 'I don't want to go to school' She loves it. The teachers do an excellent job and have created an amazing environment.
