Continuing review (2/2)
I was told the student was disciplined but my daughter also got in trouble because as a little 6 year old child, when she was being inappropriately touched. she told the kid to leave her alone and to go touch someone else. The boy first put her hand on his p and when she wanted to tell the teacher he said he was going to tell on her because she touched him. When she was fearful he proceeded to touch her p. Thats when she told him to leave her alone and go touch someone else. But my daughter also got in trouble. Disturbing enough while talking to my 6 year old we discovered this had been occurring for a while. Not only to her but other students and had a history of inappropriate behavior. I want to disclose how much credit I give all teachers. These issues dont stem from school. These kids are being exposed and brought up this way from home. Kids who their parents dont put time in monitoring electronics, parents that really arent even there. I blame the parents, but as a school so much more could be done to keep the influences from being spread. And its worth mentioning several teachers expressed the same dissatisfaction with the administration. On a positive note, we took our childrens education and decided to pull them out of school. Please do your research, dont just trust the school with your kids. Again this is my personal experience I really hope my kids were just the few that got unlucky. That luck changed because they enjoy home school. If you feel lost because I know we did contact advocate groups like power to parent and so many others! Youre not alone

This is one of the worst schools in the area, it became the worst of all because of the new principal and and her newest add a assistant principal that no one need it, they have 2 assistance principal to do the job of the principal. they are so incompetent that they need 3 to do the job of one person. that 3 of them can even do the job of 1 person. the teachers are really good at there job. To make the school better they need to get rid of the principal and her helpers that don't know how to do there job. the only explanation they give is the parents don't help went they don't allow them to do so, they even say that our area if difficult like we all are a bunch of criminals. they yell to the kids and expect them to stay quiet . They are scared of doing something wrong, because they will get blame of any kind of thing. they expect the kids to be respectful went they are not giving any respect to them. went we had Steve niemeier has our principal he didn't needed a assistant principal to do his job. he was one of the best principal in the whole area. they remove him to get someone that didn't know how to filled out his spot and do as good as he did, the best ccsd can do for our kids and teachers in the school is to bring someone capable of doing the best for the kids. I wouldn't recommend this school for anyone that doesn't want their kids to suffer any bully from the principal or the assistant principal. they are rude with the kids and yell at them.the teachers are miserable in there because they can't do anything to help their kids.they don't have any learning programs for the kids to help them learn anything new. How sad is that now in this day kids are experiencing bully and being depressed and have fatigue in the school they are the future of the country and they treat them like the worst. every time you go and try to seek for help in ccsd they dont even help you they think your just exaggerating the things. fr there benefit because they are in the right all the time.

I found one of the administrators, Jennifer Hamby, to be less than professional.

The school overall appeared to have teachers and staff who were friendly and professional, but in contrast, I found one of the administrators, Jennifer Hamby, to be less than professional.
