From day 1, I tried to get involved in my child's classroom and I was told that the classroom was too full of people as it is. Then, my child was marked/labeled by a group of teachers and the principal because of their personal feelings towards my child. Whenever I inquired about my child being bullied, they told me that my child was being silly and that they could not do anything about it since they never see the incidents. On the other hand, my child comes home telling me that when telling a teacher of the incidents, they simply ignore the complaints and give my child another directive. I am a parent that feels isolated and targeted with no resolve. I cry every night listening to these stories. I go to the school and feel like a burden now. I was under the impression that the teachers and principal were the professionals, instead, they are presenting themselves like a clique. In fact, when I approach the principal, he doesn't even greet me like a parent, he addresses me by getting straight to the point.

Wonderful principal and assistant principal.....Principal demands excellence in and out of the classroom. Ran like a private school. Zero tolerance for negative behavior, and students must be in full uniform, neat and clean everyday. Parents are treated like guest entering a hotel. Well Done to the principal and her staff. She should be nominated for running a school with a program that prepares students for their future goals.
