Open Quote Attention all parents: Avoid West Palm Conservatory in Victorville at all cost!!!

My six year old son was bullied the entire year. He was punched in the face, kicked, pushed, and teased all year. We talked with the teacher and school office. We were told they were dealing with the bullies and they would keep an eye on my son. Today was the last day of school and his pants were pulled down by one of the bullies. Another girl told the boy to pull down my son’s pants. He was not fully exposed, his underwear stayed up, enough is enough! The superintendent called me and told me what happen and I lost it. I asked if it was the same kids who have been picking on my kid all year and he had no idea. He said that he cannot disclose who the child is but they did deal with the student.

Same story but my son continues to be bullied.We have pulled him from this school and he will not be returning. DO NOT send your kids here!! Close Quote
