As a former employee, who left of my own accord after some serious mistreatment such as ageism and on-the-job injury, I can say the director of the preschool is a very questionable character that presents herself as the "loving, family-atmosphere matron" but will do nothing for the safety of your children as long as she can still profit off your tuition fees. There was a child who had several reports for trying to kick, bite, and quite literally gouge out the eyes of many other children on the playground from several different staff members. I witnessed him doing so many times and was even told not to report it. When I reported it to the director she just shut me down with vague placations. The director met with the parents of the child and only gave them a slap on the wrist and allowed him to resume attendance. But the behavior continued long after and probably even longer after I left. She preaches religion and literacy, but the religion and library teacher is too old to do anything but snoop on her co-workers and neglects actually teaching either religion or literacy. The religion/library teacher knew things about me that were deeply personal when I had never spoken to her before. The director keeps that teacher on because she pities her and is too scared to fire her probably due to fears of an ageism lawsuit, which she had no problem using against me for taking a mere two sick days (working at preschool there should be a grace period for teachers getting sick as you're around small children all day every day though I received none).
Please don't read this review as a disgruntled former employee, but as a former employee who saw the ins and outs that the parents did not because it was all hidden away from them. I saw many injustices done to children because a handful of children with serious behavioral or learning issues, who had no business being in the preschool, were allowed to remain because their parents could pay. I saw how that affected the other children's ability to learn and focus and how it affected their safety. A director that cares not for her staff surely does not care about the children.
I loved the children in my class, which I was removed from for the aforementioned sick time off. I loved being with them and I was forcibly removed to the literal back room because I had a fever for two days. The children didn't understand why I wasn't with them anymore. They missed me and I missed them but I was told multiple times by the director herself that "kids don't bond that quickly" "I removed you before you could form a bond". Too late, lady. Too late for those little hearts broken because she thought I was faking sick when I couldn't get out of bed and told me it must just be a "generational thing". The director also has a habit of hiring people who desperately need to work and so they feel they owe her something. I noticed that in many staff meetings and realized how much of a savior complex she has. I also watched the director interact with children and realized she was terrible with children. Sometimes I wonder if she got angry at people who were better with kids than she is, which would be most of the teachers on staff. The director also guards the only contact info of the board of directors, her higher-ups and the only people who could discipline or fire her. Essentially if there is a complaint against her, she gets to screen the complaint before she (and if she) passes it on to her superiors. Then she would brag about the board having no problems with her, which made me laugh.
Steer your children to one of the many actual good preschools around town. For their safety, I beg you to do this. Consider literally any other place and do not trust any director that claims the staff is a "family" or "family work environment". Certainly do not trust a single word out of this director's mouth. I hope my kids turned out okay and weren't attacked by the problem children running amuck. I hope they know I never wanted to stop being their teacher voluntarily. I know the director lied and told all my co-workers and the parents that I did. Please, please, please, send your children anywhere else and skip Angel Creek altogether.
