This place is awful. Ever since the old director left and the new one came on board. The place has gone downhill. The new director is fake and very rude.
This school has gone down since the new director came and Mr.Larry retired. This woman is so fake and has such a nasty attitude towards parents and her employees. She degrades her employees in front of parents and she hasn't the slightest bit of professionalism. This director always has her door closed when I arrive to pick up my children and she is just not genuine. The employees do not look happy like they did when Mr.Larry was the director. The was a gas scare and they had the children still in the school with the strong smell of gas and this women director was no where to be found. They painted the classrooms in the school with the children in the school with the strong paint fumes. I would never recommend this school to anyone as long as this woman is here. I say RUN...RUN...RUN from this school!
The program is great but the downside of the organization is the professional staff you have to deal with when it comes to an issue. They act slowly, most times do not respond accordingly, & are overall unprofessional. :(
