My child was mistreated and bullied at this school. His teacher ruined his kindergarten experience by being negative and treating him poorly from the 2nd day of school. The principal has no regard of anyones feelings and after attempts to try to meet with her to fix the issues, we were told it was the teachers choice on what to do. We ended up pulling him out 3 months into school because he cried and begged not to go to school. He has always liked school before going here. The teachers do not use positive reinforcement. Other kids have been told they are bad. The safe school assistant does not even allow kids to talk at lunch and she thinks having a 5 year old sign a contract about recess rules is how to help them learn. What kids need is to be encouraged to make great choices and to be praised for making good choices.My son is at a different school in West Ada now and it is night and day how he is thriving and how the school staff is so positive or friendly.
