School Reviews

I was a student in this school from 3rd grade to 5th grade. This school even though tries to be colorful is completely grey. The staff was terrible including the lunch. When I went to counseling because my father was deployed, the counselor didn't help at all. All he said is there is nothing you can do about it.

Today one of my sons was deprived of lunch. He asked if was able to go get his lunch bag and was told No therefore he went all day without food. My other son a (kindergarten student) was waiting for the bus, afraid he would lose his brother he left the line to go to him. He was told to get back in line at which point he did but was then placed in time out. My older son saw my kinder in time out crying and went to console him, only to have a staff member pull my kinder by the arm away from his older singling to another area of timeout. This school is a disappointment and a disgrace to educators everywhere. I understand the need to maintain control and accountability but to. I've an already scared child new to school away from his sibling as a form of punishment is disgusting. Both staff members should be reprimanded for their actions as they were both uncalled for.
