What people are saying

Monday, November 14, 2022

Failure as people who work in education system, a 10 years old child have been running them like her slaves , teachers are crying that AP or the Principle itself don’t do anything, for the last 2 years they had me leave message and never called back, today I managed to talk to front desk 4 times within 30 minutes and they failed to even get anywhere with me, They told my wife if she don’t leave the call CFISD police, so I begged them to do so when I’m going there, but now that I think about it, these people in this location don’t even worth of a time of any parents or students for that matter, failure to be not only professionals but simple workers in their line of duty
I’m disappointed to see workers like that failing miserably our Children and the Education system…
I hope no other parents or child goes through what we dealt with, and if you are, don’t feel bad as you’re not alone, this is their system of work at this location.
