What people are saying

by a parent
Monday, March 14, 2011

Quality of teachers is very spotty - some disengaged, others seem to genuinely care. Our child is diagnosed as on the Autism spectrum and our experience is that Teachers and Principal especially do not support IEP. While available Special Education services apparently are strong , there seems to be great conflict between the Spec Ed and Regular Staff leading to non-implementation of IEP initiatives. Principal is underqualified to deal with Special Education circumstances as he admittedly has never worked with having a TSS in the classroom(for example) and related challenges and has not contributed experience or knowledge- based suggestions.
