Formal Complaint Against KLA Pembroke Pines

I feel compelled to warn every parent: KLA Pembroke Pines is not a safe or appropriate environment for any child. Sending your son or daughter here is a disservice to them and a betrayal of your duty as a parent.
The lead teacher and her assistants demonstrate outright disdain for the children entrusted to their care. I personally observed the lead teacher frequently absorbed in her phone, visibly frustrated, audibly sighing, and openly complaining that she could no longer tolerate the classroom. On one occasion, she even told my child's shadow that the class was "hell" and that she "couldn't take it anymore." Such language is appalling and utterly unprofessional.
My son, only three years old, attended this school with a shadow. What she reported was alarming: children left unsupervised, running in circles without direction, crying and being ignored, while staff remained glued to their phones. There was no structure, no leadership, and no genuine care.
The most degrading incident occurred when I dropped my son off at 8:30 a.m. I overheard the teacher loudly tell another staff member, "This is the sick boy with problems." My child was publicly labeled and ridiculed by the very person paid to nurture and protect him. I was stunned into silence. When I picked him up later that same day, he reeked of urine. His pants were dry, but his socks and shoes were soaked, and not a single one of the three spare outfits I had provided had been used. This was not an accident--it was negligence.
To make matters worse, I found the teacher outside, holding another crying child by the arms like an object, while laughing and chatting with a colleague. This was not only cruel but a clear act of mistreatment.
When I attempted to escalate my concerns to the school director, I was met with arrogance, indifference, and blatant disregard. Instead of showing concern or accountability, she dismissed me with a condescending attitude, as if my child's suffering and my legitimate complaints were an inconvenience to her. Her reaction confirmed what I had already witnessed: at this school, children are not valued as human beings -- they are reduced to dollar signs.
KLA Pembroke Pines has demonstrated a pattern of neglect, cruelty, and gross unprofessionalism that places children at risk. No child deserves to be humiliated, ignored, mishandled, or treated as a burden. Parents deserve to know the truth before entrusting this institution with their children.
