Students with disabilities and additional needs are getting a raw deal because of lack of funding, staff shortages and programming cuts. Students are being taught by volunteers and subs. This is not educating children, it's barely even babysitting. So very sad as it could be a great school, but it's being slowly killed by mismanagement, understaffing, lack of programming and teachers who are overworked, underpaid and under appreciated.

Ideally, preschool enrollment should help children prepare for kindergarten, or so I thought…read more Unfortunately, my experience with this school was a nightmare. It felt as though I had given birth to a little monster. Every day, the teacher complained about my son's behavior, saying he was running around, not sharing, jumping, and more. One day, we were asked to pick him up early, which was extremely stressful. We later met with his teacher and the principal to discuss a plan of action. Right away, I sensed an unsettling vibe from the kindergarten teacher. She claimed she was trying her best to help our son adjust, but stated that other kids also needed her attention. She also suggested we seek help from our physician regarding his behavior. Keep in mind that my son had attended daycare without any behavioral issues. My husband made an appointment with the doctor, who assured him that our son was perfectly fine and simply acting his age. While I was searching for a new school, we found one that reassured us about their staff's expertise. They informed us that their teachers had over 18 years of experience and that we wouldn't encounter the same problems we faced before. I am pleased to say they did not disappoint. My son enjoys going to school; we no longer have to bribe him. He has received a star every day for exhibiting great behavior without needing any redirection. One day, the school even allowed parents to come in and observe for a moment, and my son sat quietly like a pro. I truly believe the previous teacher was not equipped to handle kindergarten. The way she spoke about my child in front of me revealed a palpable dislike. Consequently, I removed my son from that toxic environment. Now, he is thriving in his new school, and his new teacher is wonderful!

Love the charter school. It has a very "everyone" knows your name. My daughters pre-k doors are…read morealways locked. They have their own play area and breakfast and lunch room. They separate the younger grades, middle and high schoolers when attending lunch. They now have sports activities with great coaches. As with all schools, there's always a few 'mean' teachers, but the principal seems to be weeding out the bad apples. Discipline is really strict, and I love it. There's a time to play and a time to get serious. AFTER school tutoring is AWESOME!!!! the buses are great too, they come almost to my front door.

Do you want your child to be safe and receive a proper education? Do NOT send them here then!…read more First off, we were told the classrooms are a 15 to 1 ratio. My daughter's class has 30 until so many issues occurred, well over half way through the year, which forced them to get another teacher and split the class. The first teacher my daughter had was awful, to say the least. She screamed at the children, hardly taught a proper lesson, shamed and embarrassed the children, was always unreachable, and even asked us to buy her a cell phone so we could reach her. My child, 7 years old, has been given to strangers, left to walk the OPEN property, and was given to pick ups WITH OUT asking for I.D (this was even after I made a complaint about her almost being given to a stranger). My child had a Doctor's appointment and needed to be picked up early. The school told the pick up that she WASN'T at school that day. It took the almost an hour to call me and confirm that she was infact there and safe. Since those times, she has been exposed to teenagers dressing, being sexually harassing by a male student, injured (including a head injury that I was never told about), bullied, and picked on. When she told her teacher, the teach called her dramatic. Each and every time. When I spoke to the teacher (she ONLY called me because I called the school livid) and told me my child was again dramatic when I was concerned over her being sexual harassed and threaten to be killed by the same student. Whom has been an issue all year and I have reached out numerous times about. So a little boy can habitual sexual harass my child then threaten to kill her and SHE is dramatic?!?!! She was also sent to ISS when she got upset over it. During her time in ISS and MALE staff member questioned her about the assault. Making her feel very uncomfortable. At no point would that fly at any other school. I've asked for MONTHS to have a meeting with a certain teacher (it was well documented in her folder and via email) and was ignored each and every time. Any time I have requested a meeting and it be honored, was if I call the office about it. Cove Charter is rouge. They do not follow safety guidelines, they lie to parents, and their curriculum and grading practices are a joke. No wonder they are on disciplinary action for the low grades and poor teaching. I feel terrible for the FEW good teachers there. I wish so very much that they would transfer to a real school. When my daughter started at a new school the staff asked what school she went to last year. When I told them, without even outlining the troubles we had, they were empathic and immediately assured me that they were different. Apparently its common for students to transfer out and the schools are aware of how awful Cove Charter is. At the end of the day, Cove Charter is NOT a small environment based on learning enrichment. It's an alternative school for those who were kicked out of public school. Do not come here thinking anything otherwise. It was a dangerous mistake we made.

They did not complain about him then, other than when he was sick. He turned 2 and they didn't have much to say about him then. When he turned 3, they were telling us how we needed to get him checked for ADHA and for autism. Anyone that is smart would know that you cannot diagnose a kid that is ONLY 3 years is too young to tell if he/she is autistic. Our doctor even told us that. Well, he was showing out there, yes, but he kept coming home saying "mom they're stepping on my neck". He also kept saying "mom I don't want to go to daycare". He has never told us that before. They suspended him for 2 days, and we just took him out of there. They're very unprofessional, I know they were doing something to him, and they showed favoritism. They also called my stepson a kid from the street, but in Spanish. He is differently not from the street. He's a kid being a kid. Even if he is autistic, he shouldn't be treated any differently! He's still human, and again a kid. They're rude. I would NOT recommend anyone this daycare. They only care for the money. They do not deserve a star, or even half. Also, my stepson is Puerto Rican. He is very smart and was on the road of learning Spanish. He had to go to Puerto Rico for the summer, and they told us that they'd hold his spot if we kept paying them monthly as if he never left. After the suspended him, they told us that they couldn't hold his spot anymore. Everything that he was learning was from the kids that were in there with him. They never suspended them because the little boy was related to one of them. I know they were secretly doing something to him because he was acting out there and at home. He was crying telling us that he didn't want to go to daycare. My baby got depressed going there. Obviously when a kid is showing different signs and emotions, believe them. This daycare wore my stepson out. Y'all suck!
