I give this school an A+ just because I see the kind of kids that the teachers have to deal with. I know that my child is not perfect she has/had her problems but they worked with me and my child to make her better, she is in pre-k. But I have seen kids talk to the teachers like they are nothing, but yet the teachers hang in there and show those kids love. I am glad that my child gets to attend school at Ed Sadler, and can't wait till her next year. I would also like to say that Mrs. Wilson the assistant teacher in Ms. Harris's per-k class is doing a great job and I am glad she came. She has away of getting threw to the kids without raising her voice or anything she talks to them in away they understand, she gets in there head. She broke my child from acting out when I could'nt. Thank you.
