I have used this provider for more than 6 months

Some of the teachers are good, but the director is very rude and does not behave well with parents. Unfortunately she has mood disorder and this leads to miscommunication and many kids, including teachers leave PPP. Not a good school to be recommended.

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

I have given 4 star for Payson Park Preschool at Belmont because the ambience of the school and teachers are very good, caring for the kids. But unfortunately, the director has bipolar disorder and she has her moods ups and downs randomly and changes in 5-10 minutes. She misbehaves with the parents too many times, a racist woman who troubles the immigrants (non-Americans) and can make life hell for them. My child was at that school and happy, but the director’s behavior was very unpleasant. Unfortunately, the director loves gossiping about others and and never ready to accept her mistakes. Initially, she behaves very sweetly to get your kid admitted at the school, but later she shows off her actual face. She needs extra classes to regulate her emotions and needs to consult a counsellor / psychologist to sustain in this industry.
