IM A PARENT OF A 3RD GRADER THAT PRESENTLY IS ENROLLED IN THIS SCHOOL.
MY CHILD LOVES HER SCHOOL & TEACHERS!!!!! I HAVE NEVER HAD NO PROBLEMS OR COMPLAINT TOWARD ANYONE AT THE SCHOOL; MY DAUGHTER BEEN HERE SINCE KINDERGARTEN SHE IS IN A (SPECIAL-ED-CLASS) & HER TEACHER IS A LOVING & CARING PERSON!! HE IS ALWAYS MAKING SURE HIS STUDENTS ARE LEARNING & UNDERSTAND ALL THERE ASSIGNMENT BY THE END OF THE DAY!! (MR, DOYLE-#330) & I THANK HIM ALOT FOR THAT!!
BUT WE ALSO GOT TO REMEMBER THAT US AS PARENTS GOT TO DO OUR PART & KEEP HELPING OUR CHILDREN ONCE THEY GET HOME WE NEED TO READ MORE WITH THEM & ELIMINATE THE TV A BIT MORE.
BECAUSE OUR KIDS ARE THE FURURE OF TOMORROW.
SO WE SHOULD ALL WORK TOGETHER AND MAKE OUR SCHOOL THE BEST ONE FOR OUR KIDS!!!!
