Village Montessori School Inc

There is no emphasis on learning social skills.  Kids are left to work things out on their own, leading to the formation of cliques and bullying.  Rules are strict and enforced with yelling by the teachers and extremely liberal use of time outs. Time outs are not given for treating other children horribly, they are given for things like fidgeting.

Older kids bully (and get away with it) younger kids, so the younger kids learn to do it from the older kids.

They say they want children to learn to do things on their own, but if a child doesn't move quickly enough for them they will grab them by the arm and move them, which terrified my child.  Between the yelling, time outs, bullying, and grabbing, my child began having frequent potty accidents which went completely unnoticed by the staff.  My child was afraid to ask them for help, so she would sit in her wet clothes until I picked her up.  Once we left, she never had another accident.

Their policy for allowing children to "work it out" went all the way up to the director, so it really is the actual policy, not just the behavior of one teacher.  

I would not recommend this school to anyone.
