Im unrolling my kid this school needs to be shut down!

School board is mental they either do nothing or make the worst possible choices possible.

All I know is this school failed my son. I only kept him here as long as I did because I didn’t want to take him away from his friends. I also wanted him to get social interactions with peers even though my instincts were screaming at me to take him out. Some teachers were amazing and others were terrible while behaving like overgrown teenagers trapped in high school. My son is in 5th grade and in my opinion is so far behind where he should be. The worst part is some of these teachers would just pass the students even if they didn’t comprehend the materials. Those teachers never reached out to me with any concerns and would just tell me he was doing well at conferences. Sadly, I ended up having to teach him myself at home. Not help or tutor, teach. I’m not a licensed teacher, just a parent with an associates degree so the fact I’m doing better than some of these so-called trained professionals is pathetic. Then some of these so called professionals spend more time speculating and gossiping instead of doing their jobs. We lost our entire family in an 18th month span and instead of being met with understanding or sympathy, we were met with viscous childish rumors made up by immature adults. I will never forgive them for their mistreatment and malice. Lastly, many of the kids here are so misbehaved/rude. Not the schools fault but just know many of the parents who send their children here don’t even bother parenting their own children. Then they come here and behave like awful monsters to the other children. That or disrupt classes. In 2nd grade my son had a peer who would throw full blown tantrums like a toddler yet the child is still at the school years later still behaving immaturity. Half of the parents won’t even follow the rules so how could you expect their children to? It got so bad the school had to restructure the entire parking lot just to get lazy selfish parents to stop blocking traffic by using the entrance as a drop off zone. All I know is there are better schools out there that won’t fail your children.
