My grandson is in Ms Larkin pre school class. He can be a handful, and he needs structure . He attended preschool last year in a different school district,and had a horrible experience. Ms. Larkin. Is truly a gifted teacher.

Worst school I have ever seen! My son went there for 2 days and a teacher assaulted him. When I reported it to the principal, she said that the teacher has agreed to not touch him anymore. This is a public school and she shouldn't have touched him in the first place!
