My Daughter have been at Walter Brown elementary school since kindergarten. She is now in the fifth grade and I have not seen any progress in her curriculum or in her education at all to be honest her education and curriculum have went downhill. I have spoken with the teachers I have had a meeting with the vice principal to see how we can help my daughter get further in her education. Yes, she has went up on her reading, but as far as everything else I’m not understanding every time I get a report card all she has ones and twos but she is always bringing home 100% on her math work 80% on her math work but then when I get her report card it’s like whoa what happened to the hundred percent where is the grade average at? I’m not understanding and I’m kind of getting fed up so I don’t know what I’m gonna do as far as am I going to take her out of Walter Brown or am I going to leave her at Walter Brown, because this is just not acceptable kids that are struggling should get attention so they can do better not get put to the side so they can keep failing

So far this school hasn't provided my son with a proper education plan for a student who has disability's, Nor do they try to correct this issue.

If you care about security don't send your child to this school! The front gate is open all day during school hours. Anyone could come right in and do whatever they want. In my situation, My daughter was taken right out of an assembly by her mother who did not have custody at the time. After the incident I told the principal that he needed someone standing at the door so this would never happen again. During the next assembly, nobody was standing next to the door. As for the teachers, they are all very young and inexperienced and have no parent interaction in the classroom. I had even offered to help on two different classroom party days and was turned down. Communication was slim to none when my daughter had behavior issues. Overall this school is behind on safety and have no parent involvement.
