What people are saying

by a parent
Thursday, October 18, 2018

East Meadow School District in East Meadow N.Y. does not care about your child. They will put your child in detention for being late. You as a parent cannot call in to say your child is running late. It's unfair a child be put in detention and made fun of by the staff. You will need to hire a lawyer if you have any complaints about East Meadow N.Y. schools. Close Quote
