Wow, that's great, accuse someone of being racist just because your brat got in trouble. I work at a daycare in queens where the (...) really are picking on (...)children. They've been getting away with it for years. Now teachers at a school in CA are probably going to be investigated for false claims of racism, just because of some insecure racists themselves. Jees

I was a teacher at MArgaret White SChool and believe when I tell you the teachers are racist and so is the principal. I could not do it anymore and had to leave. The way the teachers talk to and treat some of these kids is so racist. The school should be investigated for misconduct and mistreatment of the students. I will not say no more as it will only be words. Instead I challenge you as parents all of you to check the school out not just once but a few times and you will see what I am talking about. If you do it only once it is easy to act as if but if you check on your kids regularly it is harder to cover up the treatment of our children. I challenge you I say how much do you love your kids check on them make it a surprise visit.

This school needs parents and teachers who will support their school. I attend every conference and every meeting i attend anything to do with that school and every time their is only three or four people besides me that shows up. The teacher don't care about the children and most of the teachers are prejudice. My son always got blamed for things i knew he didn't do, or he would get into trouble and when i asked his teacher why he was in trouble her answer was always the same "I don't know i don't remember" I also seen a teacher push a little boy all the way to the principals office while insulting him the whole way and the she shoved him into a chair he was crying and it didn't look like this was the first time it had happened she said screaming "I don't want to see his face ever again"! I'm appalled at how the teacher treat this kids and the principal is just as bad. And if your a single mother like me and you have to share custody with you ex husband forget trying to get the same information about your child. The security for these children are in danger. I came to pick up my son from school on my day to pick him up and he was gone, i ask the teacher who picked him up and she replied with "I don't know maybe it was his father or grandpa, maybe it was your mother I'm not sure!" How could you let someone other then yourself pick up your child and you don't know were he is your scared and the teacher don't know anything and there is no security cameras i was so scared. These teachers are suppose to have a paper with the names of all the people who are aloud to pick up your child and then don't even look at it. I'm just shocked at all the things Ive seen happen at this school in the short time Ive only been here for a year, and i believe a big part of it is the fact that Blythe is so small that if your not liked your children are not liked. So i end this with please be involved in your children's life especially if they go to this school.
