Barber Community Learning Center

I have problem with the staff who direct traffic including the Principal. There is a do not enter sign and they allow vehicles to enter. Then they tell the vehicle to go the wrong way without asking the vehicle at the stop sign to continue to stop.Also another incident was a man directing traffic mumbling and moving his hands towards my kids and letting the bigger vehicles to go ahead instead of letting my kids get into my vehicle first and then letting the bigger vehicles go. The bigger vehicles were stopping, but the traffic man was moving his hands for the vehicle to keep moving. I let him know that Pedestrians come first.Then one of my kids were signing loudly at music class and was forfeited his recess time. (Personally I would not take away recess because kids have to let all their energy out). A fruitful punishment would have been to not let him shop at the school. I understand that it can be disturbing if one sings louder than the other, however there are fruitful punishments. Personally, I take away favorite toys, make them read for 20 mins. learn time tables, recite poetry etc. sitting and wasting time is not the way and it produces NOTHING.

I have had too many positive experiences to list them all. I have two sons ( both with learning disabilities) and the teachers have always gone above and beyond for them. I feel sorry for the parents that claim to have had the opposite experience but I can honestly say I have been completely impressed with Betty Jane. As far as Mrs. Summer's , she has also taken the time to work with my boys and given them confidence to work hard and achieve their goals.

I love this school. Mrs. Harper is a great principal. Her strength shows through and she always has a smile on her face.The kids really look up to her but aren't scared of her. Mrs Price remembers all of the kids names. She has always been so helpful to me as a parent new to having a child in school. Those are just 2 of the important wonderful staff members at Mason, such a welcoming safe school. I also like that the akron police are always patrolling the area. Especially for the walkers!

I had two boys attend Seiberling for 3 years. We had a very positive experience. The teachers were all very professional, communicative and showed a real interest in our children. The school is very nice and clean. I highly recommend this school.
