Open Quote School is great my son's teacher is wonderful. I have an issue with safety at drop off time anyone can come in and out of the main building. Safety Patrol does not stop anyone.Too many parents, relatives etc wondering building. With all these crazy things happening in the world today I think that they need to really take this serious and actually pay attention to who is coming in and out of the building especially at drop off. I've called a few times now and it seems like this is not a serious matter to them. In September it was great someone actually stood downstairs greeting the kids and the public safety officer would actually stop Adults and ask where they are headed took ID's and made them sign in.If this is not resolved I will have to contact the board of ed and make further complaints.
