After several incidents ranging from threats, hitting, and now escalating to terrifying 2 classrooms as desks and chairs were hurled at students, the new child at fault is promptly returned to the classroom the next morning. Many of us afraid for our children's safety. We were never to this day contacted by the teacher. We had to take it upon ourselves to ask why, to request a classroom change which was immediately denied and shown the door with transfer to another campus as our only option. We live in front of this school and work hard to pay to be in it's boundaries. Our child is a straight A long term student they are proud to parade on social media but will not protect in real time. Many families were afraid and didn't send their children the next day. If you question the new principals tactics plan to be met with a very veiled response. The child at fault is being used to garner resources for the school. While our child who's never been in trouble a day in her life is now being used as a warning to other parents of what happens when you question this new leadership. We were shown the door basically and quietly and are now without a school for a very good student. Being forced into hiring an attorney to protect our child who did absolutely nothing wrong, has excellent scores but also become terrified of this violent child for good reasons. Her now education loss is because we asked for a classroom change the day after this incident that a hurled desk missed our student by inches, we had the audacity to ask why was this disruptive child was right back in class, and in just one day we were quietly shoved out. I will say the vice principal is fantastic- as well as several great teachers but they don't override this new principal and failed leadership. Sadly it will take an even worse event or a child being severely injured that they can't so readily hide or shove so easily under a rug to get any type of real time protection for students. Parents with real concerns will be hushed and students will have to go to school afraid. That's the new look for out Tigers
