Open Quote I feel as though a lot of the teachers here are way, way to hard on our children and that they treat them all as they should be responsible for to many things. I also feel as though my daughter hasn't been given the same treatment as other students which is not ok in my book Close Quote

About Student-Teacher Ratio
Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
