If you really care about your child, please ask your child about the situation at this school. My daughter had three accidents in this school within a month. She was bitten into the arm and bleeding. The face was bruised. The eyes were caught bleeding. These were all happening in a short time. However, all this. The director told me that this is very normal. I talked to other parents about this. They expressed shock. They also think that frequent accidents are very abnormal. I will find relevant departments to investigate this matter!

I would say avoid this place at all costs. The amount of money you pay for what you actually get is…read moreridiculous. Our girl was in Pre-School and didn't learn anything new the entire year. She stayed at the same level as she was when she entered in August. Also the fee for "books" for a pre-school age child was a joke. They act like this is a private school instead of a day care, but your child does not receive the education that one would expect from a private school. And I agree with the above comment, if you complain about anything then your child and you are labeled a trouble maker making it impossible to keep the "teachers" accountable. Don't waste your money here.

The trouble started back in the fall when I was supposed to have a parent-teacher conference with…read moremy son's Pre-K teacher. It was cancelled, along with all of her conferences because she was sick. Totally understandable but they never rescheduled them. A week or so later, I get an email from the school administrator saying they thought my son needed to be screened for autism. Uh... all this without talking to ME first. But wait, things just got worse. In the beginning of January (2016), they sent home a survey asking parents to indicate whether their kids were returning to Trinity for the 2016/17 school year. At the bottom, they asked parents to list any suggestions or comments on the back. So, I did. I wrote that I was disappointed with the lack of communication back in the fall regarding my son and his supposed need for autism screening. I said I wished that my cancelled parent-teacher conference had been rescheduled so I could have been in the loop for this discussion. That very day, I got a note home from his teacher saying my son was being disruptive and causing problems. I also got a call from the school administrator about my son causing issues. From then on, it was notes home just about everyday. The worst part is that my son began to HATE going to school. Up until then, I had no problem taking him there in the morning. He never cried or put up a fuss. But from the day I wrote that note, he never wanted to go to school again. He would scream and beg me not to take him. And in the afternoon, a note home about his behavior. So he would then get a punishment and a lecture from me. Something was WRONG with this whole situation - and it wasn't my kid. It became so stressful I decided to withdraw him. So, I sent an email to the administrator (because I wanted it in writing). Still have NEVER heard from her regarding my son's withdrawal. Not even to acknowledge she received my email. Unless you're willing to never complain or offer criticism about your child's education and also have a perfectly behaved child, I would avoid this school. They enroll too many children in the classes and then if a child gets overstimulated or seeks attention (as I suspect was the case with my kiddo) they try to label him/her a problem or special needs child. I don't know what they were doing to make my son hate going there so much so suddenly, but I'm glad he's out now.

There is a lack of knowledge within the front desk staff at all times. Lead teachers are the ONLY ONES who are listened to.

This leads to straight chaos and disorganization.

Le Monde has a policy of using second grade for total immersion learning in a foreign language…read more However, not all children, including bright ones, can adapt well to such an environment. The way this was handled for the French class was that students were given insufficient cues for picking up the gist of what was being said, so that some children were unable to understand instructions for subjects other than French. Those children are stunted by the experience, with some having to repeat the grade. Worse, the teacher socially isolated those students who were struggling to keep up. Especially cute was her giving instructions for a school event in French were the children were supposed to don a certain style of attire. Those who missed out on the instructions were inappropriately addressed for the event. When confronted with the problems my child was facing, the principal categorically backed up the teacher, claiming the effectiveness of immersion learning. But the reality is that almost a quarter of the class can't keep up. He and the teacher mean to achieve high standards for the school by washing the under-achievers out.
