It breaks my heart to post this review.  However, people have a right to know the truth. Currently,…read moretwo of my three children attend The Montessori School of Winston-Salem.  We are not returning due to the actions of the Head of School. On the surface, the Head of School is kind and charming as long as you play by the rules he establishes instead of what is written in the Montessori Handbook and the Blueprint for Our Montessori School.  In the school parking lot on the morning of February 12, 2019, I had to defend myself in a verbal altercation with the Head of School that left me in shock. The Head of School, Jonathan Churn approached my vehicle after my children successfully walked into school.  He started a passive-aggressive conversation questioning how I dropped my children off to school that morning. I asked him why he was targeting me as my children walked into school safely on the sidewalk while I actively supervised them breaks no known school rules.  He stated, "I address everything I see," and then quickly escalated the conversation by leaning into my car window, clapped in my face, and in an elevated tone said, "I am frustrated with you. This is what you're gonna do. You are either going to walk your children into school, or use the car line."  In my seventeen years as a mother, I have never experienced anything like the level of disrespect that I endured from Mr. Churn. At best it was unprofessional behavior.  At worst it was racially motivated as an African-American mother who feels targeted by him.  I am one of a handful of African-American parents at the school. I have witnessed other parents blatantly disregard school handbook rules (i.e., not getting out of your vehicle during car line daily) while Mr. Churn watches and says nothing.  Yet, he has tried to micromanage and target certain families. Has anyone else been treated in such a manner at this school? If not, then why me? The Head of School thought so little of me that he clapped in my face like I was a dog and had the nerve to tell me he was "frustrated" with me for the reason that is still unclear. My husband filed a grievance regarding this event and attended an initial informal meeting. The Board of Trustees was asked to provide their leadership as the Blueprint tasks them to provide supervision for the Head of School. My husband has requested multiple times that I am contacted by someone and no one is willing to even call me despite the handbook stating, "Every effort will be made to address the issue through conferences involving Head of School and those concerns."  While there are many excellent teachers at TMS, I still do not recommend it. A school environment should feel robust. Unfortunately, this school has deficiencies. A major one being that it does not represent the city socioeconomically or ethnically. The central campus (located extremely close to a registered sex offender) climate feels incredibly stagnant. Yet, there was an entirely new school built that boasts a total of five students, two of which are the Head of School's children. Under this type of leadership, I highly encourage any parent considering this school to look elsewhere.

This place is alright. They keep to the Montessori theme for the most part. They are not accredited…read morebut they are working towards it. I think someone would be happy here, just don't think that it's going to be the whole Montessori experience. Certainly better than some schools for sure. I suppose I wouldn't tell people either way to go to Montessori School of Winston-Salem or not to. If you want something at least close to Montessori and for the most part is Montessori then go ahead and give it a try. After a couple of years investigating I wish I had gone with the other Montessori that is available downtown Winston Salem. If you have the chance and can go to the down town school even better. They have two Certified Montessori teachers per classroom at Salem Montessori.

Future Truckers Of America is located in Asheboro, NC.  The school has four week course that cost…read moreclose to $6, 000 with hotel fees. The hotel is located approximately 27 miles from the school. I was recruited through Drivers Solutions Re: Pam Transport.  The school had a Office Manager named Julie with a God complex. Upon obeserving Julie's behaviour It was evident that she had anger issues and spoke to students as if they were less than. There were constant outbursts with her trying to intimidate students with removal from the program. Julie lacks the abilty to be professional and is confrontational with students by not keeping confidential information private which is a liabilty to the company.  The owners wife Pat scolds students in front of other students. She frequently divulged confidential information of the student(s) such as age. Pat engages in illegal acts if discrimination under the federal and state staues. The equipment is of poor quality and old. The trucks are dirty and in bad repair. For example: the trucks have no power steering and are difficult to maneuver, there is no a/c in the trucks and the trucks are up to 117 degrees in the cab, and the clutch is very tight and will not go into gear. Further, there is no syllabi for course activity and no direction. Students are out in the the blazing sun for 11 hours a day waiting to get into a truck to learn how to do the three back- up technique s. There us no sign in sheet for rotation. You have to ask who is last to get into line. You can wait for hours, and maybe, be able to practice for 15 minutes, about three times a day. There are three areas that can have up to 10 students at a time waiting. The students heckle students that are not performing well and there is no behavior modification by the staff for the bullying. Bullying such as intimidation tactics utilized by other students to move there place uo in the line.  Finally, you cannnot quit or you will be responsible for up to a $6, 000 dollar contractual bill. Upon signing the contract I was told that you had three attempt to achieve each test. They changed the terms of the contract and said that you only had two attempts, whch is a breach of contract, and then stated it was to their discretion to change the terms if the contract. The ratio of students along with trucks thay are no equipped with power steering makes it almost impossible to be successful at the school and chance if obtaining a CDL are slim to nothing.  The manger Julie was outraged that a student would call the recruiting office at Drivers Solutions to report the discrepancies of the contract and conditions. If there weren't any problems and she had nothing to hide about the organization and behavior, if her school was in compliance with contractural terms, the antidiscrimination laws, and equipment was in good repair then why should she be so angry? Julie the office manager is on a power trip seeks to devalue students who are trying to start a new career.  The only positive note on the school is the dedication of the instructor Wes who under horrible conditions does his best to demonstrate a understanding of his students abilities and retention to learn in a stressful environment . He ultilzes humor and his experience to try make the student (s)  experience. and survival as pleasant as possible in such harsh unspeakable conditions.

Brian introduced us to a Home Safe Network using Omnishield Smoke Sensors, Heat Sensors, Carbon Monoxide Sensors, and Flood & Freeze Sensors! Brian showed us some real life situations and we even did a hands-on exercise where we started a fire and put it out with a fire retarded blanket. A few things that stood out in the presentation was the how quickly a fire can spread and the time people really have to get out; also the dangers of that nine volt battery we take out of the beeping smoke detector and discard (believe it or not there is still enough juice in it to spark a fire if is hits against the wrong thing in the trash; FYI be sure to put a piece of electrical tape over it before discarding it). Another very shocking realization was the fact that most houses that catch on fire are equipped with a standard fire detector yet they very rarely go off in enough time for a family to get out (read the disclaimer in the box it's jaw dropping)! With this being said, I did invest in the system that was completely installed in less than an hour. It's quire affordable, life time equipment and you never have to replace the battery! This system has given my family peace of mind!
