Neglectful to students who are in Special Education classes. Unqualified and neglectful staff!

Unfortunately, I can not specify any issues in my child's class, as I am not allowed to know what happens there. It could not be more apparent that I inconvience the teachers by making contact with them, even by note. If my child gets in trouble, I only know by a color chart. Phone calls are ignored. You do get conferences around halfway through the quarter, where you're told your child has exceeded expectations, only to receive a report card filled with areas they're underperforming in (every single one AN EXACT SAME AREA you were told they were exceeding in) weeks later. Special activities? Don't worry; you'll find out THE NIGHT BEFORE (approx. 70% of all notices are sent home less than 24 hours before). I am an involved parent, but not a helicopter parent. Education is a priority to me. I have no idea beyond the school syllabus as to what my child is doing.The teacher and the aide give conflicting information often. If my child is struggling, tell me how so I can help. If my child is misbehaving, tell me what she did so I can do something. If you just need free babysitting, this is the school for you. I'd withdraw my child, but she'd be heartbroken not to go to school.
