The principal at this school is not very professional talking to parents or children. My daughter was hurt and the doctor put her on home bound. I was made to bring my sick child to school for the home bound and the principal told her to take tylenol and suck it up and come to school! To say the least I was very upset that she would say that to me and my child. The teacher that taught her on home bound was wonderful though. I decided to home school my daughter and not let her go to school there!
