There ARE decent teachers at this school. However, K Prep 1, with Ms. Mitra and Ms. Lori, leaves much to be desired. I wish their would have been more teacher-parent communication... and eye-contact..I wish I would have seen them interact with their students during recess, instead of sitting together and talking with each other. I wish they would have regulated the swing set, so all kids could have a turn...I wish I could have seen them smile more.I wish I could have seen them enjoy being teachers, basically, as I am a teacher myself, and have taught publicly for nine years.I was fortunate enough to have been an employee at St. Timothy's for six months, mainly for my daughter to attend with the tuition discount. I was able to see everything that went on with this preschool. During this past summer, when my daughter and I began our journey with St. Timothy's, my daughter's teachers, Ms. Maria and Ms. Susan, were phenomenal. In September, Ms. Mitra and Ms. Lori, were a completely different experience for my daughter. My daughter had no excitement to attend school. She is, "that child". The one who, as a teacher, will require a little more loving, attention, and discipline. Ms. Mitra and Ms. Lori had no problems with the discipline, but the love, that's where they were lacking. All 3-year-olds need love in the classroom. The behavioral ones as well, I can make this judgment on Ms. Mitra and Ms. Lori because I have been there, in an inner-city school, gang-ridden and all, and have given love, discipline and attention to ALL my students...ESPECIALLY the behavioral ones. It's a balance.But maybe I am asking too much as a parent. It's the teacher in me, that saw first-hand at St. Timothy's, with Ms. Mitra and Ms. Lori, how mediocre (at best) teachers can negatively impact my child. Don't let it be yours...Find another school. Please.
