Very unprofessional, Teacher told my mother that my daughter has a short attention span . You would think she took the time and did one on one with my child like she did for other students. She told me my daughter was being retained in kindergarten (I feel she could've worded that differently) she didn't care for my daughter needs. The principal claims that the teacher was one of her top , and that she can vouch for her . Yeah vouch for her not actually taking the time out to help my child the way she needed. Keep in mind my daughter was always doing her homework but failed kindergarten ? , Then today I didn't get a call stating my child was throwing up , the fact my sister had to be the one to pick her up and find out she has been throwing up is very sad, no one called me from the school.
