West Hoke Middle

The lack of communication between the VP and Principle is astounding. To start, I introduced myself, and the vice-principal said, oh, so you're the big dog? What is that supposed to mean? I recently had an issue with my son and another student. My son was suspended for two days without having any problems before this, minus minor stuff. Yet, when I talked to the VP, they didn't seem to care about my child's needs. I had expressed several times to the principal and VP that my son is going through medication changes. We are currently waiting for a psych eval, and so far, the system has failed him in getting him tested. Even the school said we don't or can't test him because of lack of personnel and the same issue last year when I requested my other son to test for an IEP. I am currently seeking a psych eval. Instead of being understanding and supportive, the administration said, we are treating this no different as if your son brought a gun to school. Keep in mind that my son is five and did no physical harm to the other student. I have asked several times to speak in person with the VP or Principle to no avail. I showed up this morning, and the person at the door said they were helping in the car lane couldn't speak to me right now. I emailed the school on Friday to set up a time to talk to them about what happened. This was at 5:12 pm Friday. I still don't have a response back from anyone. I emailed again this morning, and still no response back. I even left my cell number. Yes, I understand that my son isn't the only kid in the school, but If a parent shows his concern, It's important to address that parent rather than ignore him.
