(2 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Normally would have given this school 5 stars but the (...) runs this school horribly and makes the parents feel unwelcome. My son has attended this school for 3 years,loved it and it's teachers.this year they won't even so much as let a parents take snacks or see their child and you get hassled if you need to take them out early. They also count them as tardy or absent if you get your child out even 5 minutes before they release them. My youngest who was barely 4 that started this year had severe anxiety and I was stopped and asked to drop him off in the car drop off NOT walk him to his class despite the little fact that he would not walk to his class on his own. The (...) talks down to parents and shows them little respect. I am looking into home schooling my two children starting next year until we move out of the school district for Hephzibah Elementary,or until I can get them transferred to another school close by. The only reason I gave it 2 stars is because the teachers ARE excellent despite their faulty,stuck up (...). And their ratings will on get worse as long as she is there.
