I have used this provider for more than 6 months

Awful school for your precious innocent child. Your child safety is sure at risk of child abuse here and neglect. I reported it to administration and they were not even empathetic to my kid. Instead of further investigating and letting me know they would, they told me that they would have to take the staff side and do what I feel is best. My child was physically assaulted by a male teacher and nothing was done as well as outcasted. They covered it up with Hostos connections to Montifiore safe horizons and Lincoln hospital. My child not only said he beat on her but he beat on other children she was so scared to tell me what he did so I can only imagine what he did and is doing to other children. Even though I may have not received proper justice for my kid. I’m truly thankful that I saved her from anymore abuse and she can live her life and be happy. She was so insecure to learn for the months she was attending there and now she’s getting back on track. Save your child’s life by making sure they feel safe because I would’ve never thought this would have happen to me being that I attend school at Hostos but it did. Once an abuser always an abuser so make sure these teachers are protecting your children if they attend there because these young teachers have no empathy or guidance. They hire anyone and it shows. You will notice a change in your child’s behavior. After they treat them bad they spoil them with various of things to confuse the child’s mind. Making it hard for the kid to detect if what the teacher is doing is okay and they are the one that was wrong. It’s very easy to manipulate a child’s mind. Just be careful. I don’t want anyone to experience what I’ve went through. I love my child and I’m just happy she’s in a better place mentally and physically
