Discipline

OVERALL RATING (5.0)

Parents at this school, on average, believe that conflicts between children:
...are handled extraordinarily well in a way that not only gives me confidence in the safety of my child but also reassures me that my child (and his/her peers) are learning the early skills needed to socialize effectively with one another

Director's Description to School's Approach to Discipline

Discipline will be based on the individual needs and development of each child. The goal is to teach each child responsibility and appropriate behavior.

Parents' Notes on Discipline, Health and Safety

Parent #1
n/a

Parent #2
I am very impressed with the way discipline is handled at APM. In fact, I just commented yesterday to one of the teachers (after I observed her discipline another child) that I could learn a thing or two from her! She got down at the child's level and calmly told him that behavior was not acceptable and the consequences if he did it again (time-out), which he didn't. She did it so effectively - firm, but not intimidating. Just like what Super-Nanny teaches on TV! :-)

Parent #3
The facility is run professionally and is very clean.
