Carrington School
I hope you post this about carrington school. The BULLINGING is Horrifying! The administration cares more about the grades, awards, and the all around fabulous look of the school ,more than the safety of the children. The same discipline is used for every violation. Whether it be wearing the wrong uniform, or assaulting another child. Everyone gets a Lunch Detention. Which is only the difference between eating in the Cafeteria, or the punishment of eating in front of the office! ...A sad state of affairs. It's like it never happened! Who will help my daughter?
