My baby been attending this school since preschool. The school is ok but it definitely could be a lot better! I didn't have many problems from the school til my baby was in second grade. On Feb 12th, my baby came home from school with her hair cut and glasses broken. 12 out of 25 braids were cut! The following wk, I went to the school about taking her out but staff wanted to have a talk first. Before my baby came down from class, I was asked, "do I think my baby cut her own hair SEEKING ATTENTION" with some other crazy questions and comments. My baby came down a lil later and she was interrogated with questions pointing at her cutting her own hair! Really, that's crazy because she can't hold scissors correctly to cut paper. I took her out and called the school district. Told them what happened with pics so they can see the severity of it. They said they was going to investigate. Til this day, it's still under investigation! A wk later, I was told from staff they don't know what happened or who did it but they would like her back. Now it's the end of May and the school have a Father's Day event for the dads. My daughter's dad went and the lil girl that cut my baby's hair was telling him how our daughter don't wanna be her friend. He said wasn't mad but had a question. He asked if she cut our baby's hair. She confessed to him and told her dad she cut my baby's hair and how she did it. When I heard about it, I sent an email to the staff asking for a meeting; a meeting about what happened and what they attend to do when incidents like this occur and an apologize for my baby since she was neglected, disregarded and pointed at as her own villain. What happened with the email I sent, it was ignored! Staff walked passed me on the last day of school with no spoken words! The school staffs owe my baby a sincere apology!!! I stand on that! Adults need to take accountability for their actions!!! It's ok to make mistakes but it's not ok to wrongfully accuse a child!

I had such high hopes for my grandson attending Woodson, but it has not lived up to my expectations. There are too many rules and regulations that are not really effective or enforced. I truly hope that we will be able to get into another school.
