I am blown away from these other reviews. They are absolute opposite of this school. The Director is FANTASTIC. She loves the children and the staff. My son is so smart, learned to write his name at 3 and do simple math. This is the best school we have been to, and we tried KidsRKids and The Children's Courtyard before we finally found this Primrose.

I agree if you start bringing up your opinions to the Director you can forget things going well for your child. Over crowded classrooms, kids all over the place, my child is not even prepared for kindergarten. It's a cash cow kind of a place. The teachers have even told me that the Director is horrible and doesn't even care about cramming in all the kids in one room just to meet the numbers/budget. This school is not structured (just a bunch of babysitters). Don't judge all of them based on this review, but this one is horrible compared to the one in Imperial Oaks. Don't believe their student to teacher ratio either, its a bunch of bull! Some moms have communicated to me that they show up at odds and ends to find one teacher in the class room with 22 kids and it's crazy in their. Their goal is to make as much money as possible, by cramming as many kids into one class room as possible. The teacher turn over rate is high as well. They feed the kids sugary colored cereal for snacks, nothing healthy like apples and bananas and then they wonder why your kids area all over the place. Imperial Oaks offers , apples, yogurt,etc. The Director states that food is too expensive.

Since starting, my child's teachers have been great and the general front office staff were so friendly...which is why I chose this place. Everything seemed so great - until I came contact with the Director. She has no customer service skills and acts like she is in a bad mood every time I drop off my child. I understand one bad day...but all the time?! She doesn't seem at all concerned how rude she appears when I have talked with her. Luckily, they just hired a new Assistant Director who is completely opposite - super friendly. I seriously hope they are trying to replace the current Director because she has no clue what customer service means. We are now considering moving our child to a different Primrose also near us unless things improve.

Our experience here in preschool was fantastic! Pre-kindergarten has been a tremendous disappointment. I have noticed that everything seemed to be okay as long as we did not bring any issues to the attention of the director. Once we did, things went down hill quickly. The morning teacher will now not even acknowledge mine or my child's presence in her class when we drop off. We will definitely be taking our tuition dollars elsewhere!

I think common core is going to produce a bunch of dumb adults. Once the kids are grown and out in the real world they aren't going to know how to solve any problem without writing out the answer step by step

I think common core will definitely make moving families feel more confident in their school district choices, but I definitely worry about the learning curve as common core is implemented.
