[quote=Anonymous]We left after Watkins as many other parents do as they transition into the elementary level as their is no oversight by DCPS of the quality of education provided at this next level. At Watkins the problem was as follows. The age range of elementary, 6 through 12 year olds is the problem. The older children teach the younger ones to pick on others to be accepted into their clubs. As was posted by another parent, at Watkins the lead teacher had over 45 children and over 70 children for half the year as the Principal took forever to find a second elementary teacher. The principal failed to use substitutes with any regularity for some unknown reason. The Watkins teachers and some Montessori teachers (quietly for fear of retaliation) complained because the Lead Teacher Ms. Henderson, never watched her scores of children at recess and it was uncivil and bullying was common place. Several friends of ours report this continues at Logan but you have to be proactive and watch recess to pick up on this fact. If your busy working you would not know this and thus we left at Watkins once we were told by other parents of these unchecked issues. We wanted our child to be safe and in a nurturing environment.
