I have toured this provider's facility, but have not used its services

I am writing to spare other families the terrible experience we have had dealing with this school. I applied to this school in good faith. This school not only requires an application fee, it also requires 2 MONTHS TUITION just to apply. That should have been a red flag, but I felt comfortable because I signed a written contract stating I could get my money back within 3 days of written acceptance. I NEVER received any written notice from the school and when I requested my money back in accordance with their contract, I was denied. After tring to work with the school for over a month, I had no choice but to take them to court. The judge ordered them to return the FULL amount plus court costs by a certain date. I have yet to receive a refund. I find that so troubling, I am so glad I did not send my child to that school. Picking a school is not only about finding great teachers and nice classrooms. It is about finding a school with adminitrators that are ethical and want the best for the children and families at the school.
