With much sadness my husband and I have decided to withdraw our children from TOL development center. It has become clear to us that the director and pastor do not have our families' or our childrens' best interest at heart. While hearing rumors and speculation for weeks we finally approached the staff

Instead we received a very vague and cowardly letter at the beginning of June stating that we would be leaving our current building for a newly remodeled facility. No location was mentioned and to date they still can't tell us when we are moving into the new facility. It soon became evident that the two people in charge are more concerned with lining their own pockets then they are with the care of children. More space = more kids = more money. Read less

I would just like to post a word of warning to parents who are considering Tree of Life School or the daycare side of the organization.

There are a few amazing teachers employed there, but the turnover rate is astounding and the work environment is unpleasant to say the least so I would be surprised if they were there much longer. Sadly, certain individuals seem to be more concerned with lining their own pockets than with the well being of the children. Read less

The Tree of Life is an outstanding school with Christ centered principals, and uncomparable academics.

The school however, continues to pray for those parents, and the new schools that their children may attend.

They are always available, honest, and provide an excellent environment for children to learn. Read less

I have watched our favorite teachers be forced away by uncaring staff that don't seem to care at all about their employees. The administration seems to be more worried about their own pocket books than our families who have a hard time paying the high rates in the first place. I'm truly surprised by

This school suffers from a bad case of 'office politics' which should not be the case for a Christian school. Staff turnover is unpredictable, and can greatly affect the quality of education because it is such a small school. The plus side is small class size and individual attention. Your child might
