Parents' Comments
Parent #1
This school is a wonderful, loving and diverse learning center. Our daughter has been attending Bright Star since she was 2 years old. She is now 4 and will be entering kindergarten next fall. The staff at Bright Star do a fantastic job of offering fun and engaging activities and projects that are age appropriate. We love that they learn about different countries and cultures and promote acceptance through "loving kindness".

I felt at the begining of our year at this school that it was o.k., however I did observe several incedences in which two teacher-Mrs. Cathy, and Ms. Alicia- did deal inappropriatly with a child for a discilpine problem. they both yelled at him in a very hostile mannor. Thought I never saw them treat my daughter this way the whole thing made me feel very uncomfortable, and if it hadn't been the end of the year already I would have taken her out.
