My son attended ELC for Kindergarten and for summer sessions. The teachers and director were wonderful to work with, especially considering my sons special needs. Great behavior modification treats for whole class. I never saw yelling, but totally agree with them using time outs. I never saw the tv used as a babysitter and I would show up at different parts of the day to see what it was like. It was defintely a better choice for kindergarten and for summer program for my son.
Have had my daughter at ELC for 2 years and love it! Teachers and director are great. Moved my daughter here from a school that was double the price and didnt offer as much. Very happy, highly recommend it. I dont know what the other reviews are talking about as far as yelling, i have never witnessed that and to be honest i completely agree with time outs. They do give the kids time outs when appropriate and I dont feel that they overuse that method of discipline at all. All of the teachers are very hands on and involved with the children. My daughter has learned so much there that every day she shocks me with something new.
Both of my children attended ELC and loved it. I felt they got a good base of learning for Kindergarten and had fun in the process.
I had children at ELC since 1998. The Fulltime preK has highshool educated teachers. The program gives inappropriate homework for 3-4 year olds, although not mandatory, prizes are awarded for completing it. Also many fieldtrips offer no educational value and invole as young as 2.5 yr olds. Time outs and yelling are used for discipline instead of re-direction. The director is unwilling to make changes or take steps to improve classroom mgmt. After 7 yrs & spending more than $50,000 dollars. I moved to a NAEYC accredited. They did not even ask why.
