PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ THIS!
Before I begin, I want to emphasize that my opinions and comments regarding others are based on my personal experience and perception. What I am sharing is solely my own viewpoint. I believe as a parent our priority should be to find a safe, nurturing and positive environment for our children to grow academically and emotionally and where NO CHILD is discriminated against for any reason. My 3 year old daughter for starters she’s on the high autism spectrum and has ADHD which you see more characteristics of that, when she started this school there was 2 months left and she had never been in a daycare so she wasn’t used to routine like the other kids and only speaks English (and the teachers don’t, which they told me themselves). I would get complaints almost everyday about how she’d climb, play with the water at the sink, not participate in circle time and even that she was non verbal which was shocking because she actually has an ADVANCED vocabulary. Shortly after her therapist started with her she noticed that the teachers basically would ignore her since she spoke ENGLISH and they also told her that she could have a corner of the classroom to work with my child. They had NO INTENTIONS to include her. I expressed my concerns to the school where a meeting was held and they said and I quote “we’re not going to change anything so if you are unhappy then why do you have her here” I stayed shocked to say the least! To continue they also were trying to get me to place her in public school with an IEP and even after multiple times stating that I wasn’t choosing to go that route at the moment they still continued to try to get me to do so. Another incident that occurred there before the therapist started with her was I picked her up one day with NAIL MARKS embedded in her arm as if the teacher had held her like that for a while. I immediately called the school and expressed how upsetting it was to find her with marks. They told me to come in the morning to the office and all I got was an apology. NO INCIDENT REPORT WAS WRITEN. To end this I ended up MOVING HER to a new school where we received a warm welcoming and we are much more happier thus far. The slogan for this school is because at centro matter, every child matters but that is NOT the case here! I HIGHLY recommend you DO NOT put your child here especially if they have any type of special needs!

Iba a poner a mi niña d dos años aqui pero despues que vi el comentario de la mama d la niña con autismo a la que le enterraron las uñas obvio ya no, y encima estoy tan indignada viendo esa foto. Y veo como la escuela le responde a los comentarios buenos pero al comentario de la mama ni like le dio, ni una disculpa ni un nada, ella lo q debio llamar la policía 🙅🏻‍♀️
