I wish I could give 0 stars. As a professional in education myself, you have to maintain your professional decorum at all times. The staff has proven to be childish, unprofessional and simply unethical by discussing adult matters with a 4 year old. Threatening to call child protective services as of the mother was neglectful! I hope the state inspectors revoke the license to operate from this establishment!
Ms. Jo is extremely unprofessional and rude. My niece heard the staff talking about adult things and when confronted about it, Ms. Jo threatened to contact CPS on my sister as pure revenge. Steer clear!
Ms jo is a complete a**. She doesn’t care about these children she doesn’t have a nurturing heart. She is very mean to the children she hits the children. My child came home a number of times stating that ms jo hit here. THINK TWICE before taking your child here,
