Grantosa Drive Elementary School
LEAHMC-wi: GRANTOSA DRIVE ELEMENTARY IS ONE OF THE WORSE SCHOOLS THAT I HAVE EVER BEEN EXPOSED TO. MY SON'S K5 TEACHER ALWAYS APPEARS TO BE VERY STRESSED OUT, SAD, AND HAVES A "GIVE UP" MENTALITY WITH HER GROUP OF 5 YEAR OLDS. MY SON WAS FOCED TO STAND IN A CORNER AND HOLD A HEAVY OBJECT IN WHICH THEY NAMED "MR.TURTLE". WHEN MY SON BEGAN TO COMPLAIN ABOUT HIS ARMS HURTING THE TEACHER TOLD HIM TO SHUT UP OR SHED MAKE HIM HOLD TWO MR TURTLES ABOVE HIS HEAD. MY SON WHEEPED AND PLEADED TO PUT THE HEAVY OBJECTS DOWN, WHEN THE TEACHER GRABED BOTH OF HIS CHEEKS WITH HER HAND AND TOLD HIM TO SHUT HIS MOUTH. I WAS APPALLED AT WHAT MY 5 YEAR OLD SON CAME HOME TO TELL ME THAT NIGHT. I IMMEDIATED COMPLAINED TO THE PRINCIPAL THE NEXT DAY. SHE SEEMED CONCERNED BUT SHE NEVER GOT BACK TO ME. JUST RECENTLY I DROPPED MY SON OFF AT THE FRONT OF THE SCHOOL BECAUSE ICE AND SNOW COVERS THE BACK PLAYGROUND. TO MY SURPRISE AS I WAS PULLING OFF, I NOTICED THEY SHUT THE DOOR ON MY SON AND TOLD HIM TO WALK AROUND THE SCHOOL TO THE BACK. UMMM MY SON IS 5 YEARS OLD. WITH EVERYTHING THAT IS HAPPENING IN THIS DAY AND AGE, I FIND IT UNSAFE AND INNAPROPRIATE TO MAKE A SMALL CHILD WALK HALF A BLOCK AND IN THE BACK OF A BUILDING WITHOUT SUPERVISION. SENDING MY SON TO THIS SCHOOL GRANTOSA DRIVE ELEMENTARY WAS THE BIGGEST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!
