The director over the Cox Learning Center in Branson was resently fired for the mistreatment of a child. Renee is her name. It was nap time and the child, 2-3yrs old was running around the room. Renee proceeded to grab the child by his/her arms, yell in his/her face, and shake the child. The child dropped to the floor. Renee proceeded to pick the child up by his/her arms and yell at and shake the child again. The child dropped to the floor yet again. Renee proceeded to again pick the child up “forcefully” by his/her arms and yell at the child. The child was twisting around and dangling in the air. This place is awful. Do NOT send you child here!!
