Good Meadow

Cruel and heartless administration and NOT a supportive environment. My daughter’s father died and she missed 4 days of school, and I picked her up 45 minutes early one day for a therapy appointment because it was a very traumatic experience for my daughter. I communicated the situation very clearly with the school so they were well aware of it. The school then sent home a very religious condolences card along with two letters signed by the principal stating that because my daughter missed 4 days of school she now needs a doctor’s note on day one for every single absence. So on top of losing her father in a very traumatic way, she now apparently is not allowed to have any sicknesses, and also is not allowed to go to therapy because they don’t have any weekend appointments at her therapist’s office and her therapist is not a doctor. This was in addition to the 2 text messages and 1 phone call per day about her attendance during those 4 days.Also, my child has had a substitute teacher for a third of the year and the school has not shared the substitute’s name or how to contact her. My daughter received an award for top grades so her academic progress is clearly not the issue. The principal is just cruel for the sake of being cruel.

I have been pleased with this school. Teachers are great and there is a caring staff.
