I am a parent with a wonderful spouse who is a step parent to my children- we have consistently tried to develop and maintain relationships with my child's teachers but to no avail. It should not be so difficult to get updates from the teachers on how our child is doing and what we can do to help him reach his potential. I almost feel that since I am not the custodial parent that my concerns and attempts to 'reach out' have not been taken seriously. It has been a frustrating experience trying to get consistency on any level. Although I am sure there are many wonderful teachers who have every good intention, we however, have not had much luck. It's very unfortunate and we don't have the same experiences with our other children's teachers who attend other schools.
I have never in all my years dreamed that I would have to see such horrible conditions. This school shows no respect for the students nor the parents. They would just assume to let some children fall without help and encourgement! The staff- all though not all are the same. I found very few staff here that were about the students and learning instead of detentions and unfair treatment. The is a great divided line between the care for the students and what just make this school look good!
This school is not the best. The principals and higher authority are not welcoming and seem to care more about the appearance of the school, rather than the children themselves. Leaving many behind in understanding and safety. Although the higher staff may be less than satisfactory, the teachers themselves are wonderful and try their best with what they're given. Special thanks to Ms. Portmann. She's a wonderful and understanding teacher.
Mrs. Scharder is the best teacher at the school. She cares about all of her students achieving something in life. She is awesome. This school really cares about its students.
