(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I have spoken to the (...) at this school and he is retiring soon so he dont care about a childs education at all. I have been working with the teacher close to the end of the school year and i must say something is not right at this school. There is too much to write and explain. All i can tell you is i decided to home school and it's not that hard. I am tired of dealing with teachers and (...) who all stick by each others side and dont care about a child's education. The (...) did not care when i showed concern about my childs education. This school is way too into punishing kids several times when it should only be once.

- The teacher i have dealt with this year is so lazy and has no great teaching skills. School is almost over and that teacher hurt my child's future for next year. This school should keep a better eye on lazy teachers. I thought kids are suppose to learn, my child is confused and when he asks for help this teacher just tells him that he is to busy to help him. He also told me that he can't do one on one with students. From what I hear from my child he is not doing his job. I will be going to the district about this matter.

- This school is to strict and rude. Its hard for a child to be a child when the adults in this school want mummies to teach not kids. My child has trouble keeping up in class and brings lots of homework home everyday. The teaching is poor, I feel like I am the teacher and that the school does not provide a great education or its his teacher. Just letting parents know fight and watch out, especially with who is teaching your child. Hope you get a good teacher, I did not get lucky this year.
