Horrible experience. Wasted efforts of my child being in this school. So much hype for being in this district but absolutely hated the online remote experience last year and also the current experience. What bothers us most is that teachers have no empathy . They form pre conceived notions about kids and start targeting them . And remember these are k-2 kids who are developing every day.waiting to get my kid out of this school and atleast the other schools in this district are better

The problem I see is that the so called "6" day schedule doesn't focus on any valuable pattern of education for the kids. The emphasis on Math or writing is far less compare...
