Ollie Detwiler Elementary School

I was so excited to get my son into this school. He is a huge fan of the arts and excels at them. Unfortunately his first year here (1st) COVID put a stop to it. I was very unhappy with the children not being allowed to attend school in person, but I did end up loving his teacher (Ms. Chickering) who was amazing! I was excited when they got to go back, even though it was with masks on their faces (abuse). Then finding out they were getting an extra month I was very happy because my son needed it. Little did I know that would be cut short by emotional abuse from the staff. Convincing children who are not sick that they are is wrong. Allowing a sick child in and then punishing all the others because of their mistake. My son is not sick and would not be sent if he was, yet he is being forced to miss school which he loves or be sent to the “sick room”. A healthy child being sent to a room for those who are sick. My healthy son was forced to leave school crying and asking me what he did wrong that he had to leave. These administrators have no interest in what is best for these students. They should be removed from their positions for being abusive to children.

The community is engaging with the school. There is family engagement opportunity for the students and families. Especially for the fall festival and local resources.

Does not provide help for student with disabilities like Autism Spectrum Disorder. The administration will just make the choice to not take the student back for the next school. Principal does not care!!!

Mi niño TEA ha avanzado mucho con su maestra de educación especial y todo el equipo, se ve feliz y con deseos de ir a la escuela siempre.
