Both experiences, campus & online, were fantastic, never having a problem that I can remember. The staff helped me anyway they could and the professors, especially in grad school were extremely knowledgeable, professional and easy to get a hold of. I've read the bad reviews on this website but living in the Waterbury CT area more than 1/2 my life (covering over 30 years) and working with many Post U graduates in the finance area for years at various companies I haven't heard of a problem.

We provide a blended program for our students with a combination of standard academics, S.T.E.A.M and hands-on Montessori approaches curriculum. Our School provides three preschool classrooms with a 1:8 ratio (state ratio is 1:10 staff to student). We keep our class sizes small so that we may provide individualized attention to all our students in their educational journey. In preparation for kindergarten we work with our students to gain strong independence from teachers. Students will be guided through lessons and projects but work will never be done for them. Art projects and writing is 100% your child’s hard work. Our students are also assessed 3 times yearly to make sure they are gaining the understanding and developing as expected for Kindergarten entry Our goal is to make all students and families feel welcomed and part of our family.

CHILD ENDS UP BATHROOM SINK UNDER DAYCARE WATCH! ** I…read morewasn't able to upload video so i added stills! If I were to give this daycare a negative 5-star review, I wouldn't hesitate! Here's why: Firstly, when we initially spoke with Ashley, who presented herself as the owner of River Oak Academy in Watertown and Torrington Preschool Center in Torrington, the onboarding process seemed sketchy. They insisted that we sign up for Care For Kids, even though they claimed to have connections with the program. Despite this red flag, we decided to enroll our child in the school, paying $250 instead of the originally requested $395 with Care For Kids. However, several issues started to arise. The phone on-site would ring their personal cell phones, making it difficult to immediately connect with someone on-site. One of the Directors in particular was often unavailable, citing issues with their phone carrier. Additionally, the lead teacher of the preschool-aged group, would frequently contact us about our child's unsafe behavior. We questioned the cause of these behaviors, but the "lead teacher" would simply attribute them to transitions between activities. The only communication through the Bright Wheel app seemed to be when our son misbehaved, with little to no positive feedback recorded. River Oak Academy would make us sign incident reports for minor incidents caused by our son, such as accidentally scratching someone. However, when our son's lip was cut by another child, we had to request an incident report. As the weeks went by, the lead teacher consistently complained about our child's unsafe behavior, which led to us canceling activities to address the issue. Despite this, the school claimed they could still support him. In January, shortly after our son's 3rd birthday, we received no communication through the Bright Wheel app, assuming he had a good day. However, just before pick-up, the lead teacher messaged us, requesting to speak. Frustrated by the late notification, we called the "lead teacher's" cell phone since the school's phone was still not working. She explained our son's "unsafe" behavior during lunch, and mentioned that he had climbed into the sink when another teacher turned her back to assist a student with pick up. We requested video evidence or documentation, but none was provided at the time. During pick-up, my partner met with the two teachers and the director, who showed him a video of our son in the sink while repeatedly telling him, "It's not a bathtub, right?" We continued to ask for more information, but they kept repeating the same story. When we got home we called River Oak to set up a meeting for the next morning. The Director, who was not present during pick-up, answered and mentioned that their phone was still not working. However, less than 10 minutes later, the other director called and informed us that she had reviewed the tape and saw a teacher putting our child in the bathroom after dragging him on the floor. That night, we contacted the Department of Children and Families (DCF) and filed a complaint of neglect. In conclusion, our experience with this daycare has been incredibly concerning and alarming, prompting us to take immediate action to ensure our child's safety and well-being.

I recently took my driving test and unfortunately failed because of unclear and unsafe instructions…read morefrom the instructor. During the test, I was in the left-hand lane when he told me to "go right." I asked for clarification since that instruction didn't match where I was on the road, but he repeated "go right" several times. So I followed his direction exactly as stated, even though I knew it wasn't correct, because he insisted multiplee times! Afterward, instead of acknowledging the confusion, he made comments about my disabilities and told me to "stop making excuses" and "you have a lot of diseases all of a sudden" when literally all I said was that I have dyslexia & Autism and need his instructions to be clearer... I wouldn't be as upset about failing if it were because of my OWN mistake, but in this case, the error happened because of unclear and inconsistent instructions from the instructor. So Long story short, he told me to cut across lanes and cars to make a right turn instead of letting me take the left and correct it. When I asked for clarification multiple times, he got irritated and repeated "go right," so I did, and then he failed me for following his OWN instructions.
