Old Bayside

Horrible school!!! If your kid has the slightest learning disability don’t sent them here!! Ignoring all suggestions from parents on how to better your child in school, absolutely no communication!! Every single special event the school had they would send multiple pictures of the kids to parents, my daughter was never in any of the pictures. She was never involved in class activities. The teachers just put her to the side like she was diseased and didn’t want the other kids to catch it. If you expect your child to be in a play or have a special role in any of the performances don’t count on it unless they make straight a and are a class favorite they choose the same kids for special parts over and over not giving any other kids opportunities to shine.

We have had an excellent experience with this school. I have had three children with IEPs for speech, one of whom is autistic, and they have gotten all of the help that they have needed. The staff and teachers are very concerned with the welfare of the students, and are always willing to address parent concerns. Students still get recess, and instruction in health and physical education, art, music, and media center, which I can assure you is not always the case with public schools these days.
