I just found out (Friday 8/17) who will be teaching my daugher, Back to school night is Monday night (8/20) and I had to go to the school, wait in line to find out by looking in the window. I don't appreciate my child's name being put in the window, with her name, grade and teachers name for some creep to see. To top it all off we asked for AM K class last year and ended up getting PM. Their website isn't updates so I don't even know when K class start, I was told the 21st then told the 27th. I have received nothing in the mail. Being new to this I have not been impressed at all. They need to get some help and become more organized.
