Hamilton High School

Very disappointed in this school. Teachers tell you they want to work with you to help your child. But what this actually means is they expect you to do as you are told. You as a parent have no valuable opinion because as they are quick to remind you - you don't know what it is like in an educational setting. So many kids struggle and the teachers are not educated in learning disabilities. The teachers here are very quick to suggest ADD or ADHD for everything!! They expect you to drug your child based on their opinion. They refuse to look at other possible reasons for a child's learning problems or attention. Learning disabilities are not treated with drugs - they are a brain based problem and can be made better with the correct accommodations and understanding. However, due to their lack of education on Learning Disabilities they just assume and incorrectly diagnose most children with ADD/ADHD. It is doing a real disservice to these kids and those not properly diagnosed will continue to struggle.
