I am an employee

Have worked in and taught in many school systems and Daycares over the years and this is one of the best I have seen. Friendly staff, Caring atmosphere. good parent communications. The ones with complaints are the ones that do not pay their bills on time or have out of control children with violent or totally inappropriate behaviors.

I definitely do not recommend LFOJ!! They are MEAN to the children and verbally abusive. I have personally heard the worker call a child with special needs "stupid" and go into detail about how he was "just not smart." They claim to be Christian based,but they are far from it!
