Lower grade teachers are excellent. Grades 3 and up questionable. KIds endure bullying from teachers and other children. Behavior contol measures include public shaming and humiliation. Reports to administrators fall on deaf ears and never address staff, instead blame parents or children for issues. Close Quote

I think Gunstream has a great lower grade program, but after 2nd grade, the children are embarrassed in class in front of their piers, and left to fend for themselves against bullies. It really saddens me that my son that used to love school now dreads it, since he is one of the nice kids that gets picked on. The teachers sit outside at recess gossiping and not really watching what goes on. Then when the kids try to tell they are told not to tattle. My son that once loved school is now dreading each day. I am very sad about this all and I am hoping that they figure out you can't stop caring just because the kids get older. Other than that, love the younger grades and the work the teachers do and effort they put into it. I hope things change before my son is so depressed there is no hope left about school! Close Quote
