I am writing this review to share my honest experience as a parent leaving this daycare. While the…read morestaff is friendly, we experienced ongoing issues that ultimate led us to pull our child. First, illness was an almost constant battle for us. While I understand children get sick in group care, the sheer frequency and lack of apparent hygiene measures were concerning. Second, communication across the center is very disjointed. Because there seems to be constant rotation or inconsistency among staff, talking to different teachers or administrators often yielded conflicting information or left crucial updates uncommunicated. As a parent, clear communication and a healthy environment are top priorities. Unfortunately, the lack of consistency made it impossible for us to feel confident staying here.

I can't stand the school we moved to this area for this school. Being there for 3 years! I just…read morecan't take it any more but I'm forced to go here because I have 50/50 custody of our son and if you ever been to family court in Clark it's a joke! I have a son who is a late bloomer and I tried going to the principal and asking to hold back my son they refuse to do so and told me he has autism. My son is on the spectrum understandable but if he is function and sitting and focusing why is it a problem? The IEP sucks they don't acknowledge issues and my son gets bullied a lot in the self contained classroom he has gotten slapped, had a goose egg bump on his head from a toy being thrown and named called. They also let the kids have tablets! This year supposly they are blocking YouTube kids but haven't seen it yet! My son tells me he's so smart he gets done before anyone else and he think the class is too easy they only play dance sometimes do worksheets that are preschool! They passed him on to 3rd grade with out knowing all his ABCs and told me he was on a specific plan for the IEP and that he goes at his own pace! I brought in my BCA from proud moments Aba therapy because yes I have to go there too by court order. She saw the classroom and sat in the IEP she was not impressed and caught a lot of mistakes in the IEP hour sheets. The BCA suggest I switch schools I brought that letter to court with recommended schools and the judge said nope because my BCA said Pinecrest was fast paced which I couldn't explain to my judge because they don't let you speak unless you represent yourself which is automatically a no win against another attorney. So no school will dare write you personal letters on what you need far as a letter stating the IEP is transferable so the judge Dept Y laughed and threw the book at me and didn't care about the BCA emails! She didn't care to sworn me in either to tell her the BCA recommended tutoring and I put him in Kumon and held in back in Pinecrest enrollment but justice system here is again the biggest joke! Anyways going back to this school teacher is sweet but I feel not attentive as one should be how in 3 years do we struggle not knowing the ABC and my son can remember my phone number and my x husband New York phone number in a month from his ABA center! In the begining of this special needs education I asked to sit in or help out in the classroom they let me volunteer but against a wall not in the class room and told me they can't let me in the classroom. I wrote a letter to the state board with help of an advocate school attorney and magically they where going to let me in because you have rights a a parent to sit in for so many hours. But now just yesterday they tell me oh if you want to scheduale a visiting time for 30 mins and the principal will sit in with you , you can scheduale that. No thank you I know how it's runned this school. The ladies in the office are catty and you can feel this vibe coming off! They send your kid home when he's sick for no reason they hear a cough or a kid saying I don't feel good and they give me a call to pick him up but I actually don't mind this one because I teach him more at home in my opinion. Kids in his self contained special needs classroom have bullied my son or had behaviors that hurt my son and they just say oh well we documented it but that's all we can do. They won't graduate my son to regular gen ed class because he's so behind it sad because he's just falling more more more behind it's like they have a preschool regiment and he wants to learn so much but they won't push. It's basically daycare in the special needs. He's graduating his Aba therapy very soon and i find it this school is pushing him farther back. It's wild when I bought my home school rating was 9/10 now it's 7/10 it's going down.

I've been going to games since I was a kid and went here for school, never once was there ever a mean security monitor. Guess Liberty can't be perfect forever.

Why am I being treated like the villain? Third attempt (three different occasions) trying to inform…read morethe school of students throwing rocks at each other and the person who answered the phone, hung up on me. Poor girl saying "that hurt really bad" repeatedly, and the boy proceeded to pick up something even bigger and throw that at her. Apparently, the school doesn't care about their students harming each other, and people outside of the school. Again, is my third time reporting it. I'm unsure as to why there are no teachers or anyone of authority watching young children. I will be calling the district to inform them, since the school doesn't seem to care. Linda, who I'm told is the office manager, was especially unhelpful and uncaring on the second attempt to inform. The first time, the students were throwing rocks across the street at me and almost hit me twice, while almost hitting a car. They then almost hit a mom and daughter. I called the school to tell them. The second time, I decided to do (as advised), and go inside and let the front office know. I was greeted by two women who were very concerned and ASKED ME to wait and speak to a woman named Linda. I said no that's okay, and was insisted I wait, despite my reluctance and not thinking it necessary. I overhear them try to tell Linda and she loudly proclaimed (I'm paraphrasing) "tell them to call the city we have nothing to do with this"..uhhh what now? So the two women, naturally, were very confused and said "there was an incident!". Linda proceeded to come over and be extremely rude and almost snide, telling me she doesn't know what I want her to do and that they sent out letters already to the parents. I said well that obviously didn't work and decided to leave because her unwarranted poor attitude was unfair to be directed at me when all I'm trying to do is protect the kids from hurting others. She then chased me as I casually and calmly walked away shouting for my name. Deeply unsettling interaction. Third attempt: today a boy in a red tshirt was throwing rocks at other students. I watched and figured I'd stay out of it given my other experiences until he whipped a rock at the back of a girl also wearing a red tshirt (hers has white numbers on the back) from a few feet away. She cried out "that really hurt" multiple times and sounded like she was going to cry, as she was holding her back. He told her "no it didn't" and picked up something even bigger and threw that at her. Where are the teachers? Why are these kids so unsupervised that they can do this? Someone is going to get seriously hurt. And again, why am I being treated like I'm in the wrong in this situation? I was nothing but polite and nice.

They are constantly calling each other Nig****, Bit****, Ho**, etc. I have called the school and tried to do something about it and the school has shown they do not care. The kids are not supervised on the bus, they do not listen and yet the school still doesn't require parents at the bus stop. These are kindergarteners and up yelling racial slurs constantly telling people to f*** off and saying things like "f*** you you mother f*****". They play foul music constantly. No supervision, no manners and no one seems to care. My daughter will not be going here much longer and I will be doing everything it takes for things to change even once she stops going there. Plain disgusting and everyone should be ashamed.
