Review for Grace Outreach, Bronx, NY, USA
I WOULD GIVE 0 Stars . The program is a DISGRACE ! I was helping my daughter in law to attain her GED. She went to Grace and took an assessment test and an interview Spring/ early Summer. They told her she could begin classes in the fall. When the fall came they told her they were going to promote a rigorous course that would be 8 weeks instead of 12 and she would have to wait until the Feb. classes. She did patiently, when the time came they told her they did not think the school was for her. I then called to find out why the run around and why were they misleading her and hindering her education. Igt is hard enough to to get back to school and encountering barriers and then the program is now making excuses. When I called I spoke to a lady she told me she would have to interview again ( ridiculous) I told her fine , when she then said well can she come in today. I confirmed with my daughter in law she went and they for nothing for them to tell her she cant participate. My daughter in law was a poster child for that program. She was disappointed after she had built herself and waited so long and feeling discouraged. I call and ashe dto speak with the administrator Andrew rubenstein, I explained and he told me what do you want from me she is not accepted. While I was speaking to him he hung up ... I was nopt sure if the disconnected I called back and I asked him were we disconnected or did you hang up on me he said he hung up on me becasue he did not like me tone ( I was at work and was speaking in a low proffesional tone) I said that was unacceptable he yelled at me and hung up. I WOULD NEVER RECCOMEND THIS PROGRAM !
