9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is rapidly going imploding with their horrible response to the COVID virus. Their remote schooling was implemented poorly for 2020-2021 and they actively tried to embarrass and ridicule the remote learners by facing the camera and tv on the other children so that they were on display for the class to see as some strange kid.During the recent BOE meeting for 2021-2022 school year, I was horrified. Every parent that spoke was fiercely against the state's mask mandate and it was clear as day the pressure they were putting on the district's physician to permit a local option that would not require masks.Darien is a horrible city in that it is filled with horrible people that not only support the right-wing fascist movement in the US and wear it with a badge of honor.Ask yourself, would you want your child being taught in a school that rejects science?Parent Review4y ago
