"Mixed Feelings About Lydalls Nursery School"

We've been at Lydalls Nursery School for a year now, and while the staff are friendly and the facilities are good, we've had some issues with communication and consistency. Our child is happy and learning, but we feel like there could be more emphasis on parent involvement and feedback.
