School Reviews
2 3/8/2010
My biggest complaint is that the school doesn't listen to parent concerns. I want a school and administration that will work WITH me and not against me. Any time I've had issues, the school makes me feel like I should just go elsewhere. We've since moved schools and are much happier. It is too bad since Montessori is great. But the execution at this school is lacking.
