White Plains

The teachers at Bethware are the best I've ever seen. Unfortunately, the social worker is lacking. If your child is neurodivergent, please make sure you're informed about your rights. My daughter didn't fit into the box that the social worker thought she should. The social worker told me that my child would benefit from taking ADHD medication without ever trying other options for my kid. I had no idea what and IEP or 504 plan was, and she wanted it to stay that way. Furthermore, she constantly took my child out of class to have meetings with her without ever telling me once. The social worker didn't advocate for my child's well being or education. I was angry to find out that I wasn't made aware of multiple different options before putting my child on a medication that was doing far more harm than good, so I decided to homeschool her. Thankfully, the school board took actions to make sure that my child never has to attend Bethware elementary again.
