This is what happened on my 1 year old daughter's first day at the SK Goddard School: *A lead teacher in the room struck my child in the head with a door with such force my child was knocked to the ground. The impact of the door caused a large bruise on my child's forehead and she is showing head trauma/concussion symptoms. *No one called me or my wife to inform us of the injury *My wife arrived for pick up 10 minutes after the accident, and the lead teacher who caused the injury had already taken off, again without calling either of us and letting us know what happened, let alone remaining onsite to tell us in person. *My wife received limited information about the injury when she arrived and was not immediately told what had happened. *My child will not be going back. We asked for our deposit for the month back, and did not get it. When things go astray, as in my case, you learn the true character of an organization. We spent that night in the hospital, and my child will not be returning to the SK Goddard School regardless of the status of my deposit. If I could give it less than 1 star, I most certainly would.
