If i could give this place negative stars i would. Marybeth the director is terrible. she's a stuck up snob who judges everything about you and your child. she made nasty comments about my son being in a split home. Kim the older teacher in the transition room was terrible to my son and other children. she screamed at my child for looking at a puzzle that she laid in front of him and 4 other children and when she realized i was behind her she grabbed my son's face with both of her hands and squeezed acting like he wasn't in trouble. But the worst part is that one of the teachers in the school told my 5 year old son that "God hates mommy. And God hates Aunt Sarah and Aunt Amanda". My son has never been to church or even knew who God was. This was his introduction to religion. When confronted Marybeth claimed no one would say that. My son told me in detail where it was said to him but wasn't sure of the teacher's name. Maryann also claimed that no one knows the names of my son's aunts. I told her there is absolutely no way that they don't know their names because they are listed as emergency contacts and authorized pick up and drop off people. They dropped him off every day while i was at work. They just buzz anyone into the building. They don't even check to see who is at the door or escort the adults to the classroom. So anyone can come in and take your child and they wouldn't know. They also withhold food from the children. Most days my son would come home with most of his lunch not even opened or touched. Do not send your children here. They teach hate and judgement and its not a safe environment.
