[quote=Anonymous]As a parent with 2 children at the Vinci School, I have to speak up in support of the school and teachers. Yes, there are administrative things that can frustrate parents. Personally, the turnover was my primary concern, but everyone in the DC area knows how challenging things can be. You can move 5 miles in one direction and you end up adding 30 minutes to your commute. This is an expensive place to live so many decide to move away. These are factors many companies just cannot compete with to ensure retention. I do agree to a certain extent that some administrative practices may need to be revised to ensure teachers stay engaged, but we have to keep in mind that the average US turnover rate in the early childhood development and care sector is about 30%. My bottom line and the reason I decide to keep my children at Vinci is because they are progressing, developing, and learning beyond my expectations and all in a very nuturing and caring environment! While my son had 3 different teachers last year, he finished the year able to read and do simple math. Sometimes I don't like my kids very much so I HAVE TO support any teacher who can care for them 9-10 hours a day and teach them at the same time. [/quote]
