Worldspeak review: preschool 1

This is a horrible school that I strongly recommend that you avoid. My son was going there when he was three and the school administration is unbelievably vindictive, self-servicing and fake. Although I paid them thousands of dollars in tuition and fees, they actually kicked my child out of the school because I was 10 minutes late one day and expressed reluctance to pay an additional late fee for pick up. In fact, they immediately dismissed my child even though they told me that my child had no problems in the school.

Although they profess to do a superior job with education of little kids, they do a very mediocre in some part and a crappy job in other parts. if you criticize them, they simply point the finger back at you.

If you put your child in first grade there, they will get no support, minimal art, no sports, Kindergarten and first grade are taught by the same preschool teachers, and trumped up activities that they will make you pay for such as field trips that they make the parents pay for any way. They claim to treasure their teachers even though their teachers scrub floors and wash out the toilets at the end of the day each day. Their teachers perform the janitorial services even though the administration claims that they are highly prized. The child management is mediocre. There is no parking for the school and if you are late because of problems parking on the busy streets, not only were they going to charge me a fine, but they ended up dismissing my child when I complained about it.

They got very irate with me when I tried to institute any kind of regimented teaching program in any of the classes. Unless your child is Chinese and going to the school to learn Chinese or Hispanic and going to the school to practice their Spanish, I highly advise against this school. For even the cost of a single tuition, the average parent can find a home tutor to do a much better job. The management is penny pinching even though the profit margin is huge. I found the general staff to be very resistant to any kind of educational suggestions, much of which were sorely needed. My son spent almost a year and a half doing nothing but art projects in Spanish and that was deemed Spanish education. I was very disappointed in the activities of the school.
