When my child goes to an administrator about being bullied 4 times by the same individual, the administrator should do something to stop it.nothing was ever done!You're supposed to protect the children from being bullied and it's not being done! If you ever order anything from pease, expect it to be wrong!Stop injuring children on the bus because you can't hire competent bus drivers and they drive terrible causing injuries to students.Worry more about giving the children an education than policing them! This school treats kids like convicts, not students!
