Adams Elementary School

Redbird is a great school with a great community.

I'm about to ruffle some feathers. Yet I personally don't care. I'm disappointed due to the fact. That this schedule came highly recommended. From various parents and adults overall. My child started this school. Brand spanking new but the principal. At my daughters previous school. Bad mouth me to staff at Roosevelt. To the point where staff. Such as the teacher and principal. We're making snide remarks about me. To or in front of my child. And because my child informed me. Everytime I'd confront the staff. The teacher was petty and ignored my messages. Surrounding my daughters education overall. Intentionally giving my child assignments above her comprehension. And when I'd speak on my concerns. The very nasty principal would. Target my child pulling her. Out of class disrupting her learning time. Pretending niceness towards my child. Around other staff members yet being mean. During the interaction while alone with my child. She'd call my daughter name's. And would comment on my looks. Which is very unprofessional and quite frankly. Had nothing to do with;the price of tea in China. From my understanding instead of. The teacher and principal doing their job. By providing structure and safety. Their time was filled with fraternization. Of any male entering school grounds. Or harassing my child to spite me. My child began not wanting to attend school. That's when I knew. I had to remove her from Roosevelt. I had enough on them. To file a formal complaint. With an Ombudsman or board of education. Yet I opted to remove my child. Also my child wasn't having. Her needs met from an academic standpoint. She wasn't being taught properly. Or treated fairly in my opinion. And the way that things were going. I knew that my child. Would've been just shuffled through. To the next grade without proper knowledge.

I am a parent of a student at Webster elemnetary, and I would like to raise a concern about the current pick-up and drop-off situation. At present, there is no designated parking lot or safe area for parents to wait. This forces many of us to park on nearby side streets, where homeowners understandably get frustrated, and in some cases, we risk receiving citations due to limited legal parking spaces.Recently, I was cited for parking too close to a stop sign while waiting to pick up my child. Unfortunately, this highlights the fact that the current system is not working well for families or the surrounding neighborhood

The school principal bullies and physically grabs students. The security camera at the school conveniently malfunctions whenever complaints about the principal are raised. Teachers claim to be concerned but they only focus on students who exhibit disruptive behavior and refer them to special education. Students are told to behave well when visitors are coming. Children like my daughter who is quiet goes unnoticed that she struggles with reading until it is time for state testing. During happy hours teachers mock the families they dislike. Parents are really not welcome. We left that school.

Nice Montessori setting but children must be neurotypical. Children with even the slightest difficulties are pushed out.

I would say overall it was an enormous waste of our money and of our children's time. By the time we took our students out of this school they were so far behind (in math in particular) that it was embarrassing to them at their new schools.
