  • This school is the most HORRIBLE place for a child to be that I have EVER seen in my ENTIRE life. All that sanitizer you send to school goes to the office for the staff and not onto the hands of the Kindergarten children after recess, before meals, or after pottying. My daughter was on antibiotics 8 times that school year. When she was in school, they "forgot" to give her doctor ordered asthma meds. The teacher was argumentative 99% of the time, running from the mouth how she'd been teaching 100 years and she knew what was best. Well I can tell you, if I had not been homeschooling in the afternoons, my child would have been yet another child to get extra money from in that school and eve with her ADHD, tested out near genius. SO! I said BLAH to them and we are homeschooling from now on. I wouldn't send my DOG to school there. Too many horrible experiences to even LIST here!!!!!
