Montessori Day School

I am extremely disappointed by my toddler granddaughter&#39;s experience at this school. Three year olds can&#39;t be expected to understand the expectations and practices from day one. They are there to be taught, to have behaviors shaped, and to have this accomplished in a way that doesn&#39;t shame, embarrass, or humiliate them. Poor communication with parents, lack of effort to design a plan for a child who needs guidance, and abrupt dismissal are signs that the staff needs intervention and training. I am a retired educator from the Chapel Hill Carrboro Schools who knows a thing or two about quality professional programs and care for young children. So disappointed!

There was no interview process. They accepted my child despite my telling them of delays and being worried about potty training. Blame your reasoning on covid precautions, but you didn&#39;t do your due diligence to check out my child as a prospective student, and then asked her to leave after 8 days claiming that no other child has issues in your school, when statistically that is impossible, and I know other children in the program that do suffer. MDS shamed us as parents and left us without any resources or direction on how to help our child, with an ongoing autism diagnosis process. They never tried with these kids. They only want the ones that will comply and easily fit their mold. American Montessori Society should be ashamed of this school, as they do not represent Maria Montessori&#39;s dream.
