We went into this school year with high hopes. This was our first year with a child in school here and based on several of the reviews, we were hopeful. The two stars in this rating belong to the leadership and administration who, for the most part, were responsive and attentive. They seem to genuinely care, although we never reached any resolution to the greatest of our issues.
The teacher gets zero stars; unresponsive, uncaring, and negative. This person does not have the demeanor or attitude to be teaching the grade level shes teaching. It was profoundly disappointing. Any communication we received was negative and our sons positive attributes were never discussed or highlighted. For reference, he has since tested well above his grade level in aptitude at another school. We believe the teacher is simply not equipped to work with kids who require extra work because theyre bored with the regular curriculum.
Aside from our sons teacher, the teaching staff all appear to be miserable. There is little smiling or friendliness. It was not at all the environment we envisioned. The few interactions we had with staff outside the administration were with rude, entitled teachers who acted as if they were doing you a favor by being there.
If we were to sum up our impression of the underlying issue it would be a lack of accountability. Any concerns were met with defensiveness and excuses; sometimes outright blaming the students for a lack of control.
Although our son and his younger siblings will be learning in a more positive environment moving forward, our hope is that this district will do a better job addressing parental concerns.
