Blossom Montessori School

Since my first post was removed for being too vague, I’ll tell the story.
My son still has nightmares because of how he was treated here! Let’s break it down by incident.
First I picked him up and he had a bite on his face, but I was told it was a rash. He said it hurt and they would not believe me so I took him to the doctor, they confirmed he was bitten. I called and spoke with the director who told me the doctor was wrong. She then called back about an hour later and said they caught a girl biting another child and she said she bit my son too. Now, kids will bite but why would they lie to me?
About a year after that my son started crying every night that he didn’t want to go back. After a few times he showed me on his lamb what was done to him. Apparently he would cry when I left so they would put him in a highchair in another room. Then my favorite part, they would put their hand over his mouth. When I asked the director she said it didn’t happen, but they had a new teacher from another school that «was more hand’s on». Because it’s ever ok to cover a child’s mouth? When we went to get his stuff I didn’t even get an apology. Everyone admitted to me that it was all true, yet not even a sorry.
Since then my son was in another preschool and then into public school and in both places they were appalled to hear how he was treated. When we drive by, 4 years later, he will still tell me «that’s the baby school that hit me» (he said hit, it was covering the mouth but either way they were wrong).
I would often be late to work because no one was there in the morning, when they were supposed to be open.
I make sure to tell everyone to avoid it here, I don’t know if that teacher is still there or not but the absolute disregard for my child’s safety that was shown to me by the director is enough to stay away.
My son did LOVE Ms. Darlene, she was great with him and always pleasant.

I am very pleased with Blossom Montessori! My son goes 3 full days a week and seems very happy there. Miss a Ann the Director is so friendly we love her. Both of my kids also attend her summer camp program and they always enjoy it there as well. My son will be attending her school for the following school year and I can’t be happier with my decision!

Poor communication between the director and the parents. Some occasions school seemed to be under staffed for the amount of children (especially in a.m.) Poorly run school.
