My son has a half dollar size bruise on his leg. This is what Heidi McCaskey, the Director at Lionsgate Child Development Center, and Glenda Combs (Regional Director for Apple Tree Academies) allow to happen in their care. This is the third time he has been bit by the SAME, KNOWN, biter. He has bitten multiple children, on multiple occasions, over a lengthy period of time. His own teachers call him "the piranha". But yet, because I was upset, and thought they weren't doing enough to protect the children from him, was told "it's not a good fit". We've been there for over a year, and I would challenge them to produce one teacher in that facility that doesn't enjoy my son. But I have heard all kinds of negative comments about the other one. And because he has a difficult home situation, he gets a pass. I'm so heartbroken that my son is being punished. I have even swallowed every bit of pride and practically begged to stay. But "it's not a good fit" because I'm the squeaky wheel. ????
Do not know this facility but what I hear from friends, it's great.

| The operator made an effort to falsify information.

During the 2-4-25 visit, while reviewing an email from a child's parent, the administrator provided inaccurate information when asked if the parent notified her in the email that medical treatment was sought for their child following injuries on 5-17-24 and 5-20-24. | |||
