  • Reviewed by Parent or Guardian on November 17, 2010
  • Rating: 1 (1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate
  • This school allows bullying of the children and then bullies the parents who notify the school of said bullying. (please see other sites to see the consistency of this complaint over the years). Physical and emotional bullying have occurred and there is inconsistent response to the bullying. Athough there is a low student/teacher ratio, the playgrounds are not monitored effectively. Obtaining accomodations that should be easily implemented is difficult. The administration and staff have worked together for so long that there is no true oversight of the teachers; instead the children and parents are at fault when a complaint is made. Threats by the administration when parents ask pertinent questions or attempt to confront problems occur.
