My son has had issue's going to the restroom and getting a drink. He comes home all the time almost wetting his pants (and has a couple of times) and really thirsty, sometimes dehydrated. He says he's not aloud to get drinks or use the restroom when he asks. That is a problem for me.

Andrus is also one of the few schools in the district to offer orchestra (4th & 5th grade). The teachers are overall ex...
