While we were excited to have our kids join the Phoenix School based on the online reviews and…read morestate funded pre-K, we had no choice but to pull them out after just a few weeks. While most of the teachers seemed caring and capable, there was a toxic dynamic fueled by one particular teacher that is clearly condoned by the school's management. Virtually every time we observed this teacher we witnessed him barking orders at the kids and losing his cool. Aggressive, condescending, and authoritative. It appeared as if he was trying to force obedience through intimidation. Zero manners or etiquette used. Certainly not the kind of behavior we use at home or want modeled for our kids 40 hours per week. We gave it a little time as we all have bad days, but after multiple instances of observing this behavior we met with the school's Director to discuss the situation. We presented our concerns in a constructive, example based fashion and were met with nothing but defensiveness. No notes taken, no next steps, no anything. We were essentially told that many parents are supportive of this "no nonsense" approach and that it was more of a shtick than truly authoritative behavior. Sadly I don't believe three year olds have the capacity to precisely delineate between a shtick and someone being intimidating. At this point we had lost all confidence in the school and pulled our kids. An enormous inconvenience, but necessary. Even though we had made up our minds about leaving we felt obligated to discuss our experience to the board of the school. I asked the head of the board to call me to discuss everything three times and was repeatedly told that I had two options, come in and speak in person during their monthly meeting or put everything in writing. The director of the board later attempted to implicate that I was only voicing concerns because I wanted money back. This interaction certainly validated our decision to leave. Other miscellaneous concerns included: regular cockroach sightings, run down facilities, noncompliance to the mobile app (Kinderlime), processed food served from single-use packaging, and that we continued to receive app activity entires after leaving the school. We have since learned that there is a contingency of parents that have had a similar experience at Phoenix School. I'll again note that the majority of the people at Phoenix School seemed fine, but when it comes childcare, one weak link breaks the chain.

That spoke volumes to us when we were originally looking around because there was a lot more turnover in the last 2 preschools our kids were in. The facilities aren't the most up-to-date but the quality of care @ Phoenix more than makes up for it. There is also strong parent involvement which leads to a strong sense of community in the school.

My experience with the Georgia Institute of EMS began with high hopes but ended in a legal dispute…read more I am sharing the facts of my journey so prospective students can have a more complete picture. I enrolled in the AEMT program in February 2024. A few months into the program, in August 2024, I was informed that I was "behind" and was presented with two options: transfer into a more expensive "Flex" program for an additional cost of over $2,000, or I would fail the program. From my perspective, I had no choice but to agree to the additional expense to continue my education. After transferring, the primary issue became the scheduling of my required clinical rotations. Despite my requests, the school did not secure the necessary placements for me in a timely manner. By January 2025, with my course end-date approaching, I was informed that to get the additional time I now needed to complete my clinicals--time I needed because of what I contend were the school's scheduling delays--I would have to pay a new, additional fee of $700 per month. I felt this was unreasonable, as the need for an extension appeared to be a direct result of the school's inability to schedule me. When I was unable to resolve this matter with the administration, I filed a breach-of-contract claim in magistrate court to recover my tuition. In response to my lawsuit for a refund, the Georgia Institute of EMS filed a counterclaim against me for defamation, based on an online review I had posted. After the case was recently moved to Superior Court at the school's request, they increased the amount they are seeking in their defamation counterclaim to $25,000. My educational journey here did not meet my expectations. I would advise potential students to carefully consider all aspects of the program and its policies before enrolling.

After my son complaining he doesn't want to go to school anymore I inquired and was met with "your son gets more than $99 of education and I will not be hiring teachers until the class is full. " Unfortunately , I didn't make the price for the school Glory Bud did so to advise me my child is getting more of an education than paid for is unprofessional at the least. Which to me was also a cover up for the lack of teachers and students present at the school. I thought it was a off day the day of enrollment as there was only 2 kids but as my son continues to go he was not pleased and stated he had the Director who is also the babysitter of the other two kids at the center. I was completely misinformed of the type of education and environment my child would be in. Also the schools hrs of operation are stated 6:30am -6pm yet when my sons comes at 6:30am I'm advised he is early and doesn't get a snake because The director Venus is not reimbursed. I could not deal with the misinformation any longer. So not happy my baby begged to go to school only to be disappointed by someone eager for a booming new school!

Sometimes people just feel the need to tear down what they can't control or abuse. It was a great school.
