I honestly don't even know where to start with Hinton. It's listed as closed in some places for a reason—the building is in rough shape and the health standards are basically nonexistent. Between the chronic absenteeism and the fact that you can never get a straight answer from the office about illness outbreaks, it felt like my kid was coming home with something new every week. There's zero focus on wellness here; it's more about just surviving the day. The facilities are old and honestly don't feel clean. If you're looking for a place that actually cares about your child's physical health or even just has decent ventilation, look elsewhere.
