The staff! You would really think that this 8 year old boy ran this school, He is 8 all of you are licsenced professionals! I really just want to know how he got his shoes off and layed down on the floor with his teacher watching. My son is no angel granted, but when the school invests thousands of dollars on yet another curriculum program for basic math, the same basic math they've been teachng for years, generations, instead of investing it into training their staff!!! Your teachers obviously need new techniques, not another program that teaches the same mathmatics that people have been learning for ever! Its not the curriculum its how your staff delivers it. Lets face it, this school is a joke, and the only reason my son goes there is because it is the least of three evils for jokes of educational facilities in this county! No wonder over 63% of our kids don't feel confident enough to face the world and never leave Siskiyou County. My advice, If you' The staff!

The principal and teachers here have absolutely no common sense, lets suspend a student for 3 days on monday, but then not count monday, the problem is obvious even the "leader" doesn't know how to do basic math, no wonder they wasted my hard earned money it. And then when he does go back on a Thursday go ahead and crush his spirit again b/c you can't count. Yeah that sends a message alright, you don't want him there. Well guess what If I had a choice he wouldn't be.
