Both of my girls love Lister! They love their teachers, they love the friends they have made and they seem comfortable in their environment. They learn a lot and a lot of the teachers are great at engaging their students and getting them to LOVE learning! However, as a parent I am disappointed with the lack of communication. There have been several incidents where Lister was on lockdown and parents were not notified. There was another incident where my daughter nearly walked off campus with a friend when she was supposed to be picked up by her father or myself. Other parents have complained that Lister sends their child off with their day care provider when they were supposed to be picked up by their parents. It seems too easy for our children to be put in danger at this school. The staff needs to work harder in ensuring students safety and communicating with parents. I understand there is a language barrier with some parents, but that's not excuse to not keep them informed of situations that are potentially dangerous.
