4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThere are very few teachers that care how well the students do. They have no resources to help kids that are struggling in their classes, other than the help from the teacher whenever they are available. The teachers have been mean to children that need extra time to finish a test or need help with homework. The response from most teachers is they are not trying. When they hair need help to understand. They tend to say inappropriate things to the children. For example complaining about working and not getting time off since they have to make up for snow days. Talking bad about other children in front of students. Making racial comments to the entire class about how hard a it is to be a specific race. The majority of the teachers favor the “popular kids” or “rich kids”.Parent Review6y ago
