State route d, Saint joseph, MO

The teachers are great, they care about each child. However I have been a parent at this school for many years and it is very clicky. Most of the parents are wealthy or have stay at home moms who can volunteer at the school when needed, the children of these parents are treated as if they are special. they have no help for children with special needs or those that need some one on one help to understand problems. The principal makes it very clear when there is a child they do not want there especially those with behavior issues, she just wants them out as soon as possible. There are many children there that do not live in the district, yet others are not allowed to go there even though there are no places to rent or buy less expensive homes. Most schools allow out of area children although priority should be given to those in the district. The classes are not overcrowded and I know many children there that do not live in the district but because of who their parents or grandparents are they are allowed to attend. It is very disappointing for those children.
