the administrators and teachers at this school make their own rules as they go. they do not like to see individuality in their students. they truly expect a school of "stepford children."

What is wrong with this school's administration and the teacher? Writing LOSER on a child's paper is CRAZY!!!! I think maybe some of this school district's budget should be spent on teaching it's teachers how to talk to their students with encouragement and respect. Of course they should get rid of that LOSER TEACHER FIRST!

I can not believe a teacher named Rex Roland has the Gaul to write LOSER on a 6th grade girls paper. I believe he's the loser. He should be emailed and let him know how we feel.
His email at the Middle School is- [email protected]
Tell him this is un-acceptable......

I don't even want to give a 1 out of 5.
The school is doing NOTHING about the teacher grading a girls paper and writing LOSER on her paper.
I guess for his grade it would be
PIG"....
