I have used this provider for more than 6 months

Does not work with children who do no not fit their "definition" of a child learner. Lacks up to date practices regarding social-emotional learning and staff overturn is ridiculous. Staff lack professional development. It needs to be brought to the 21st century and they would continue their reputation of being a top notched school in the area.
