Kinkeade Early Childhood School, Irving TX

My wife and I are beyond furious for what happened to your child Nanci Gonzalez but rest assured Karma will come back to Elaina & Jones

If I could leave zero stars, I absolutely would. I'm not sure what specific program they have for after-school but I had him enrolled this year for prek3 for a full time schedule that included the afterschool program. Keep in mind that he's only 3 years old and we pay hundreds of dollars every month to ensure hes getting the best of care and education. Today I picked up my son and realized he was very upset. Upon further investigation he tells me a teacher took him into a closet, pulled his pants AND underwear down to spank him several times with open palms, and also held him really hard to the point that bruising was caused. He detailed everything to me as soon as we got home. Previous to this and during him crying on the school campus, I confronted the front desk. They wanted him to repeat exactly what he told me but keep in mind, my son was terrified. In the end, he only agreed to point out the teachers that hurt him and also name them. I asked multiple times to go with him to identify the teachers and was told I was not allowed to go because my reaction could "hinder" the investigation. At this point, I was not aware of him being in a closet, the bruising (he had long sleeves on), or the fact that they pulled his pants down. As soon as I found out the details, I immediately called the police to open a case. My hope is to prevent any other children from going through this and I hope you all consider my review before enrolling your children here. As of now I have no new updates but I will make sure to bring this to everyone's attention as well as involve Irving ISD. My concern is that if these behaviors are allowed during afterschool hours from teachers, I pray that this is not occurring during normal school hours as well. Please beware and talk with your children. They rely on us to care and watch over them.

Have teachers in after school program that harm the children. See @NanciGonzalez review, her kids are my nephews. Never send your kids here.

I agree with Nanci G.comment. Unfortunately we had to remove our child from this place 2 yrs ago because of constant unexplained injuries. This school is trash. Please keep your little ones away.
