(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I wil give this school a thumbs down. My son's kindergarten teacher told my husband that my son should not be in kindergarten. How rude...she didn't give any suggestions. I know my son is no angel but still he has issues, there should teachers there to help him with his needs. By the way he is special needs even though he tested out. He should have not tested out.
