My daughter went here for prek3 amazing , loved the staff , teachers everyone was amazing my child not only learned so much & got her ready for prek4 & kindergarten but she’s very hands on with everything she will be 6 soon & is thriving 🤍thank you for all your help🙏🏻 I recommend this school for your little ones 🥰
No doing what the are suppose, too much inconsistence. This should an very positive environment for the kids. A child's a place to socials, it's not. Communication, personnel and staff very unprofessional.
Do not enroll your kids here ! My 4 year old son got kicked out of mi escuelita because of his disability. They are lazy and do not want to deal with the kids! I have been trying to get in contact with the director Jessica Reich since last week which I even went up to the school to speak with her but have had no luck. I called today but she is out “sick”. Not to mention the teachers are very unprofessional and lack of communication.
I do not recommend. My 4yr old told me one of the teacher assistants pinched him and nothing was done about it other than telling me I could withdraw my son, which i did as i was NOT going to allow my son to return to the same class under the same supervision of the same teacher he says pinched him. This is unacceptable. I called the main office and they also did nothing as they told me the director of the site would have to be the one to handle it. My son has speech issues (which he never recieved therapy for the school year because of how long the process takes) and is currently being evaluated for autism, if this is the way they treat special needs students they need to let people know ahead of time that they are not fully equipped to handle special needs students. My son had to miss 2-3weeks of school as the director could not/would not? do anything to rectify the situation other than telling me i could withdraw him.
They do not listen when your child is being bullied by other children , they do not care . My niece was always getting home so thirsty!!! You’re not able to take them water nor snacks !! They’re stuck eating their horrible food !! The principal is useless for cases like these . We have removed my niece from here, they honestly do not care . My niece was being bullied by the same kid like 4 incidents she came home scratched up or lumps on her head that the bully would always push her , we asked for the bully to be moved to another class or the school because she was the problem and they could care less!!! And just because my niece went late to her graduation ceremony they did REFUSED to give her , her certificate of completion for the whole year!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’m beyond disappointed and upset !!!
