I didn't send DC to CLC, but I agree that the prices are not in line with other Jewish (or even non-jewish) preschools in the area.

I was definitely turned off by the other mandatory fundraisers/donations that they require so we chose another school.

I had 2 kids that went to CLC for the past several years.
While I was pleased with the teachers’ warmth and kindness, I was not happy with the fact that most of the teachers were, in fact, unprofessional and most of them did not have a degree in education or even a teaching diploma.
I also found the CLC contract to be unfair towards parents and I was ripped-off by the school.

While the director may give you a good first impression as a warm and kind educator, she is FAR from it once you see her true colors.
I will not send my third kid there for sure, and I will not recommend this school to anyone I care about.

In the past, this has not been the case. If you have any questions or concerns, call the school and ask. They are very open and have an open door policy so you can stop by and observe at any time. We had a wonderful experience at CLC.
