Well, my child goes here. She is a 5th grader, and knows about being mature, but absolutely HATES some aspects. First of all, the music teacher. This certain teacher is annoying to her, since if you get one thing wrong, you’re done for. In your grade book/progress report, you’ll get a 4 for getting one question wrong. He’ll also end up picking on you till this is over. Second, I’ll keep this short; the lunch moms. I’m not really certain why she dislikes them, but the ranting she gives me about them seems INTENSE! Now, last one. The academic progress. Currently, what she’s learning is all the same stuff she already learned. She has some of her old friends‘ numbers and they have made much more academic progress. Another thing, they haven’t learned a certain thing, and she gets disliked for it. The thing is basically— how to start your writing. Whenever me and/or her brother check it down, it seems fine!

Last week there were two comments on here that addressed issues this school has had with bullying. This week both of those comments are gone. I will not be surprised if this comment gets taken down, however I think it should be written and hopefully is seen by those parents who are concerned with cullying at the school. There is absolutely a problem with bullies at this school. There are wonderful teachers at this school. There are also some not so wonderful teachers and other staff. I have heard on multiple occasions over the last two years about a couple of kids who have been constant problems for my child. My child has told about the bullying on many occasions and it has not been addressed. These kids are made to feel like they are the problem while the bully goes unchecked. There is absolutely a problem with certain staff (non teachers) who are in positions of authority that do not listen to children and favor other children. This entire school district is a disaster. If you have a choice send your children elsewhere.
