The recent change in ownership and directorship is cause for concern. My dealings with the administration have been less than positive. Additionally I have concerns about the teacher to student ratio at times. Monthly rates have been inconsistent from family to family. My child is now addicted to juice because there are nutrition standards here. And finally, the teaching methodology is very strict and uncreative, not based on modern learning theory. I do love the young toddler teacher, Sadik, however Susan Ifft (of Pasadena Progressive) has horrible manners, and lack of sensitivity to the family and their needs. We left because we do not know what to expect.
Pros: cleanliness, lunch program, great 18 month -3 yr old teacher, potty training
Cons: disorganized administration, greedy, no creative curriculum, strict, developmentally inappropriate discipline, no trees or nature on playground
