Do NOT send your child to this school!!!  The teachers let the children leave the class rooms!  My 6 year old left the class to go eat, even though I have NEVER signed anything for them to feed my child!!!  Then they expect me to pay for it when I never even authorized it!!!  They are just lucky that she is not alergic to any foods or I would have a law case on my hands!!!
Then today she was pushed into a doll house by one of the boys that kept taking her toys away... it made her dizzy, so she went to sit down and her teacher yelled at her to go back to her station!  When my daughter tried to tell her teacher she was hurt, her teacher wouldn't even look at her, and said she was too busy!!!  Since when is a teacher too busy to help a hurt child???!!!
My daughter has 100% Honor Role grades for language and math, and then they give her a 17% for Kindergarden Life Skills!?  I think the teacher has serious proplems herself, and is not even capeable of teaching ANY kind of Life Skills Herself!!!
 
DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD HERE!!  THERE IS A REASON THEY HAVE THE LOWEST I-STEP SCORES IN THE DISTRICT!!!
