We had our daughter registered to come here. They mistakenly filled her spot. Instead of acting like adults, they have done nothing but make the situation worse. First, they are refusing to give back our deposit and on top of it her paperwork. Their primary purpose is money, not the kids!!!!!!!!!!!
