I absolutly love mt. view teachers and staff....all my children attended there. I am having an issue with how just anyone is allowed to work in afterschool program with our children without background checks in mental stability. I know for a fact sarah oliver has been in mental hospital several times and social services had a protection order on her against her own chid for unsupervised visits. yet she is now working there. I and friends have heard her talking bad of many of the kids and then ridaculing parents behind their backs to others for the childrens behavior. I would think this would not be tolerated in a community.children are just that children and who is she to judge others. I think it is horrible that she refers to some kids as that fat one or poor ugly thing. while encouragng her own child to badmouth and be judgmental on other kids just as harshly. for this error in employee judgment i give the afterschool program in Ashe County NC an F. who knows who else has slipped thru the cracks to help our children after hours.

"My specific area has many retirees rather than young families. The benefit of that is that it's quiet & since folks have lived in their homes for many years, we have beautiful yards, gardens & plenty of mature trees, flowers."
