"A" academic rating hides a dangerous realityDelcambre Elementary School's "A" rating hides a toxic, dangerous environment where student safety is completely ignored to protect the principal's image. I have a straight-A student who comes home upset multiple times a year, begging me not to report bullying out of fear of how the principal will react. When I finally convinced my child to let me step in, she completely let us down by gaslighting my child. She automatically treats victims as liars, uses intimidation to force honest kids to change their stories, and has even retaliated against five-year-olds in kindergarten. Her retaliation includes freezing vulnerable kids out and intentionally leaving them out of school wide photos.Worse, when you report bullying, she gossips to others to make parents look like chronic complainers. She even contacts the bullies' parents and spins the story to anger them. Because of her actions, I have had parents call and threaten physical harm to me and my child at our home. I tried contacting the Iberia Parish school board directly to report these safety threats, but they completely ignored me and never responded. New families are actively avoiding enrolling their young children here due to this toxic reputation. The school board needs to stop ignoring parents, look past the test scores, and launch an immediate independent investigation.
