Alexander Elementary School

My son has attended here for 4 years, the first 3 years he had to have multiple teachers because "permanent employees" were pregnant and out from October to March each year. Every staff member tells me my son is advanced, yet they refuse to test him in to a higher grade or at least provide him advanced coursework. Plenty of focus on 8 year olds who can't hold a pencil correctly, but no support for kids who are gifted. Also, the bus transportation is terrible. Most kids have to walk, but there is only 1 crossing guard in the entire village. There is no bus loop at the elementary school, the buses will block entry and exit daily. Staff will yell at you if you go in the wrong part of the parking lot, yet the parking lot is not labeled. Elementary students have to sit on the bus and wait for highscoolers to load, or unload. Your kindergarten will be on the bus with a senior, often for over 1.5 hours. It's NOT safe.
