My niece has been terrorized and pushed out of this school by administration. Bully's here are the school staff and they'll lie and cover for each other even under oath. It's the saddest and most scandalous thing I've witnessed. I intend to take this to the news before this school is targeted as they're making so many enemies I'm afraid for the safety of the students and innocent staff trying to do their jobs and mind their business like my family had been doing until my niece began coming home crying and the school obviously wasn't taking the situation with a certain staff seriously enough to the point it was obvious they never reprimanded this unnamed staff. This will be made public as it is a scandal and a bold disregard for civil rights.

Academically, it gives them a much better foundation for when they are ready to go to middle and high school. I attended Porter from 2nd grade through 6th grade before my parents pulled me out. For 3 o...
