Southside Elementary School
asugarbaby: The administration does not take parent comments and does not care what parents have to say. they are quick to write off anything a parent thinks. I wish my son could go to a different school due to the lack of care these teachers have for parent complaints. Once a parent voices an opinion that the administration does not agree with they go after the child to get back at the parent for making a complaint.
