Run far far away & remember word of mouth speaks volumes. Does not include or involve parents in your child care, does not have a readily available plan for what preschooler is learning, no one on one meet and greet to the ever changing teacher (a lot of turn over because teachers speak up about violations) I am in touch with multiple teachers who have left and they all have nothing good to say. Do not send your child, you will not be satisfied. You cannot come in the building nor can you meet the teacher or classmates. You will not be included in holidays, birthday of YOUR child, and you will not get updates on how your child is doing. They do NOT celebrate ANY holiday therefore you child cannot dress for such nor bring anything for their class or teacher as a gift or treats. This is a boring facility. They should NOT push their beliefs on others especially children just because they are Muslim! They do not provide nutritious breakfast, lunch, or snack. All vegetarian!.. and you cannot pack your own meals and send them. What child is vegetarian... does not make sense.Look at the multiple times this center has had a pop up investigation. They recently had on not even a month ago, its just not listed.. BUT you can call the corporate number to ask about it. Save yourself ! I would give it 0 stars.
