Open Quote This school is out of control. We have had issues so we scheduled an emergency conference with the teacher and princpal, but the principal thought it okay to show up a half hour late. Our child has witnessed kids running out of the classroom and feces being thrown on the ceiling of the bathroom. This is poor at best. Close Quote
