[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Aftercare isn't a good fit for all families and kids. (For example, our kid has a disability that the aftercare teachers aren't trained/prepared to support.) It would be easier for alot of parents' work schedules if the half-days were on Fridays, but the school said that teachers tended to call out sick more when that was the case. [/quote] This speaks very poorly of the school. Teachers who routinely call out sick speaks to an unprofessional and uncommitted (or underpaid and resentful) teaching staff. And that the principal blaming the scheduling on teachers calling out sick reflects a dysfunctional, pass-the-buck culture. I'd leave this school for several reasons, not just the early dismissal on Wednesdays. Why do people put up with this stuff?[/quote] +1[/quote]
