What people are saying

by a parent
Saturday, May 18, 2013

They would not allow my five year old to stand in the gym before school because he was scared even though he is supposed to be allowed at that age. A teacher told my son and his father to leave so they went out side my son seemed to calm down and it was almost time to go in so his father came home. Five minutes later some man (who did not work at the school) was at the front door with my son thank goodness we just lived around the corner or it could have been worse. No one at the school even noticed he left. They called me the next day to see where he had been that's when I found out that man did not work for the school he just hangs out at the playground every morning. I did not feel that my son was safe so I pulled him. Close Quote
