[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’ve lived in 2 cities and looked at many schools over the years. Highlights from 3 schools we withdrew applications from: (1) HOS tried joking with teachers and students, and was met with nothing but disdain; it was painfully obvious he was not liked by anyone. I’d already felt uncomfortable so this just magnified the feeling. There were other minor issues, but the poor staff interactions really clinched it. (2) Shadow day went poorly. (3) DH & I saw an aide speak sharply to and manhandle a student by grabbing them roughly by the shoulders and pushing them into place. We were alone in a hallway waiting for our meeting with the HOS when we witnessed this. And, yes, we reported all that we saw.[/quote] What school did your child end up at?[/quote]
