Lingle has a lot of work to do with building a social/emotional learning environment that supports all students in a way that helps achieve.

The first day my child started as a transfer in October she was made to feel like a burden. The vice principal was rude to her when she was shy. The teacher was rude when I met her. My child made complaints of strange behavior and rude remarks toward the children. My child was bullied daily by the teacher and students. My child was singled out to not participate in a Christmas party because she hadn't been there long enough to meet the teachers requirements for reading points. The teacher made her cut a strap off her boot, ruining them, so she wasnt noisy in class. I transferred her out after Christmas break due to the unfriendly and outrageous rude behavior of the teachers, staff, and children at this school! Her first day back at her old school everyone was excited to have her back, gave her plenty of hugs and love. She refers to Eastside as the "bully school."

This school is the reason why I got my GED early, about 3 years ago now. The reason? The principal thought it necessary to give me a month long ISS for possibly the dumbest reason known to man. I didn’t attend my “Eagle periods” because I thought it very unnecessary and a waste of my time. They didn’t allow us to finish work from other classes, and also forbade doing any homework. The whole point was to just listen to your teachers lecture you about quite literally nothing. I had skipped Eagle period about 5 times and by the way this wasn’t even a main course class, therefore attendance shouldn’t have been required. But anyways the principal thought it was very serious and punished me harshly for it. As soon as I got ISS however, I walked out the school door and never came back and got my GED that following week and ever since then my life had gotten so much better. I’m now a business owner for a theater and I’m making way more than the principal is now. So thank you for teaching me how to be resourceful and make my life more successful than yours! I forgot his name and I don’t think that principal works there anymore but honestly good riddance.
