Open Quote I have never been more infuriated with a school's staff, in my life. My child has mild Autism and requires therapy... Well, for some reason she has yet to receive therapy of any kind (two months later). What's a Mom to do when you can't get into the school, to speak to anyone, unless you have an appointment, but nobody will call/email you back to make an appointment.. Nobody will speak to you, except the teacher, but she can't do anything about it.. It took me, her therapists, and teachers three years of hard work, to get my child on track and ready for school ON TIME.. But with the lack of help from this school's staff she's, already, behind.. My child's education is NOT a joking matter and I am sick to death with being treated disrespectfully every time I have an interaction with a staff member at this school. I have never felt defeated as a Mother, until my child started kindergarten, this year.. Never thought I would have to relocate, into another county, in order to feel comfortable with her going to school. SHAME ON YOU STAFF MEMBERS! I only gave the one star because of the teacher my Daughter has. She is a wonderful woman, and great teacher. Close Quote
