U S Grant Elementary School

Just learning that the Kindergarten teacher is pinching children. My understanding is that corporal punishment is not allowed without the parent's consent. So my question is: why is this teacher touching children in this manner?? And the issue was taken to the principal and the response was asking the child "what did you do?". Really???

District 170 as a whole caters to kids and parents who couldn't care less about education and they routinely take the path of least resistance. My child knows how to dance "The Whip" and "The Nay Nay" but not how to multiply? Unacceptable!

I was a student at that school for five years. All teachers are amazing and I have learned a lot there. Mr. Banks was an amazing principle . He was very nice . I recommend this school because if i had a good time in my opinion I believe that others should too.

After attending this school for most of K-8th grade (left mid-5th grade year due to harassment from my teacher) I can say that it would rather justify certain actions of bullying rather than address them fully. I would never, never send my child to this school after the experiences Ive had here. Creating a safe school environment is the most important part of attending school, and having my own instances of bullying be dismissed prevented both me and the other students from actual understanding.
