[quote=Anonymous]We live in a fantastic neighborhood EOTP and love our neighbors and community. DC got a spot at our neighborhood elementary school which is not highly rated but I’ve heard positive things about from a few neighbors. I went in to register him and now I’m
having major second thoughts. I was there for fifteen minutes and heard multiple adults threaten kids (older than dc) that if they didn’t do X then so and so would beat their ass. I watched two older girls grab another girl by the neck and push her down (yes, I intervened). I heard language from adults and children that should not be tolerated in schools... I can’t stop thinking about it. I love our neighborhood but I grew up in fantastic schools and my mother and MIL are educators so I know firsthand that it doesn’t have to be like this. I’d love to send DC to our neighborhood school but can’t get over it. Am I overreacting? I’m not worried about him academically at all, but socially I don’t want him picking up this language or behavior. What’s the deal? Do other parents just overlook this stuff? Am I being overly sensitive?[/quote]
