St Johns as a program is over all good, but some of the teachers need to be watched very closly. I know a child that has gone there, I know that you cant always take a chlids word, but this teacher is not a nice one. she grabs them by their arm. puts her hand in there face. and tries to make them scared. and that is not how a teacher should act. no matter where your child goes, you should always talk to them and look into what they are saying. teachers are there for the Kids, and should treat the kids as they would want their kids to be treated. this teacher should not be at head start, or working with kids at all. teachers should be friendly. and up beat! not rude and mean and making a chlid not feel important. you child should want to go to school. if your child is crying all the time, or seem scared. there may be something more. be careful!
