can't justify the tuition 12/9/2008

The school prides itself on the fact that they have teachers there for years. Rosemary is the teacher to whom they are referring. And there is no doubt that she has been there for around 16 years, and she is a fantastic teacher. She is also the assistant director and works only with kids 3 years old. So this might be a fit if you don?t expect to stay for the long haul. Pros: Rosemary Cons: Everything Else more

Good for some. Better choices exist. 3/5/2008

If your child is on the lower end of the age group for which he or she is being placed, it's a great place. Otherwise, expect to have your 3 year old stuck in the 2's room until the next calendar year. They will be bored and you will be frustrated with the process. For the amount of money they charge, it's not right. If your child is in the low-mid 2's it's a good fit for the 2's room. Ditto for low-mid 3's for the middle room. Equipment and toys are pretty elderly and missing a lot of pieces. The full time staff has been there for awhile, but the part time staff seems to turn over rather frequently. Pros: good student:teacher ratio Cons: one smelly potty room, old toys, flaky administrative staff more
