Eastwood Center
Dawn7524: The school has smaller class sizes which is good for the students. I feel the school does not acknowledge when a student has a developmental or learning problems nor do they offer help to the kids. If a parent fights for help thru an IEP, the school still does not do as they are suppose to but they try to cover their tracks. On a different note this is the only school in the area that I hear of not doing field trips to places such as the Smithsonian museum. Its great that is a "enviromental green" school but there is still other history to be taught.
