[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, it seriously disrupted many families lives. I know families where someone quit a job, went back to school, started businesses, or bought houses because they thought their children had preschool and montessori charter through 3rd grade. Having the school close has been devastating. The administration could care less, gave parents zero chance of saving the charter. The disrespect and outright contempt for "middle class struggles" is truly astonishing. The CEO, Kathleen Guinan's indifference about the impact on so many families is well known. I'm particularly disgusted with the utter lack of caring for the children. The admin could care less that many of our 3 and 4 year olds will have to leave their friends and transition to yet another new school. We were told to pay $11,500 a year and that it "would be better to use our children's college money for Montessori preschool". Most families I know are leaving, some going to more affordable Montessori's, some are scraping together the funds to pay for one more year at Crossway before their child starts public K. [/quote] I am a Crossway parent from many years ago (my kids are now in middle school) but this sounds very typical of how they treated us -- with contempt. This is not surprising at all. [/quote]
