Parents' Comments
Parent #1
On the first question: we came in late in the year, so I am not sure if they had a parent meeting.
Parent #2
Doesn't share any information related to our children.Extremely worst place I have ever come across about handling the separation.Unless if you want your child to have psychologicl problems,please don't even consider this school,even for free!
Parent #3
Communication directly with my children's teachers was discouraged, particularly if there were any concerns. The teachers all say the same thing if you ask a question... Talk to the Director.
