This school has unprofessional teachers that don't teach or interact with the children. The three year old teachers are the worse. Very rude and disrespectful. Speaking with the Director about issues is a waste of time. They could care less about one person's issues because there's always a waiting list of parents who want their kids in. So they know they will always have a recurring revenue. To sum everything up, look elsewhere, or use this place as a last resort...
