Sadly, I went to the school and when I went to the school, it was not how it currently is. They fired the most amazing teacher to ever step foot on the campus a couple years ago and I knew I shouldn’t send my daughter there when that happened. But I sent her anyway hoping for a good experience. The principal is woke spineless solace and so is a superintendent. They have chosen to put children in danger by supporting protest against ice and allowing these children to leave the school campus even though it is breaking a Supreme Court law, the principal blamed the superintendent and the superintendent blamed the principal there is no responsibility or acknowledgment of wrongdoing here I have not been called back emailed back or responded to no questions of mine wherever answered, and they both were completely dumbfounded by my inquires of safety. The teachers have no control over the students and my daughter has let me know that multiple times the teachers have to call in the principal and vice principal to have control over their kids. Don’t you think that means that these teachers are not equipped to work with children? It’s been an awful experience and we’re not even done with the first year. My daughter will be finishing this year out and then leaving for a private school. There is no way I’m putting my child in harms way for another year.

We have been with PM from kinder through 5th and have been so pleased with our child's education, the teachers, and the staff. Throughout our time, we have experienced first-hand the emphasis and care from teachers regarding our child's social and emotional wellbeing. We received excellent support when we needed to get them caught up to benchmark. The students and staff take pride in their school campus. Parents are extremely involved and we are given plenty of opportunity to volunteer throughout the school year. During the pan.demic and distance learning, the teachers and staff were so dedicated to ensuring students were safe and their learning was as uninterrupted as possible. Our current Principal, Mr. Burstein, has been a joy - he has been so involved and present with the students, keeps parents informed and up to date on all school happenings, and has created such a fun and lively environment for students to learn and grow. We feel so fortunate to be a part of Parkmead!

Not very good and explains and easily engaging Vice principals like to find any reason to be mad at a student no student safety feels like the don’t want connection with students
