(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I felt very unwelcome at this school. I had a small child attending this school and I was not even allowed inside the school I was told to drop my child off at the door and was not allowed inside the school. This is no way to get parents to feel comfortable volunteering, I would have never volunteered one hour of my time! My child has since been withdrawn from the school,and we are both happier!
