My 8 yo daughter took a very important test that would determine if she could be promoted to the next grade or be retained. She has ADD and gets distracted very easily. I received a phone call from one of her two teachers telling me she did not pass the test and she would be retained. She got the lowest score possible which made me question if she had even paid any attention to the test. When I asked her teachers they had no clue of her performance during the test. I was told they were not with her while she took the test but didn’t care to find out how she got the lowest score possible. I addressed my concern to them and their reply was to not reach out to them for the rest of the year and instead to reach out to administration. Zero commitment, dedication or accountability. If you are an advocate for your child’s education don’t enroll your child in this school. Note: The other staff were always great to me (front desk, nurse, principal assistant, and others).

Their withdrawal policy is insane and they want it notarized on top of it.Withdrawal Policy Agreement2026-2027Please read the following statement from the ICS Financial Agreement and sign below."If a family decides they must withdraw from ICS, they must notify ICS no later than April 14, 2026, for the 2026-2027 school year. If you withdraw your student any time after this date, you are committed for the entire annual tuition and fees, regardless of circumstances (e.g., any personal decision or a disciplinary action resulting in expulsion). You will be responsible for the balance of the annual tuition and fees (including unfulfilled Parent Partner days). Registration fees and new student fees are non-refundable and non-transferable at any time."I have read and understand the ICS withdrawal policy, which states that I am financially committed for the full year's tuition should I withdraw my student(s) after April 14, 2026, for the 2026-2027 school year regardless of any reason or circumstance.
