Kristen the lady who manages the place is very condescending and rude. I felt she talked down to me and she made me feel poorly about myself with how she looked at me. Other than that, my son felt comfortable with his teacher and I appreciated that. However, I expected a person in management who walks with the lord to be more kind and loving to everyone.
