Open Quote My child was going to an a+ school but then they had to close down foothills and join it with another school that my child was going to but when foothills came over it was a BIG mistake! She was bullied she was not taught how to divide then when she came to another school (that was a+) she was so confused because the teachers at whispering wind don't teach you a thing! She would cry and beg for us not to take her t school!!!! Close Quote
