[quote=Anonymous]my older one just graduated from Deal and honestly, it felt like a hot mess too much of the time - for us, teacher related.  one 7th grade teacher disappeared for 3 months (which Deal did not communicate it to us) and kid had a substitute teacher who only handed out worksheets for the 3 months. another 7th grade teacher was super checked out, didn't actually grade homework so gave my kid a D on an interim report card (because of ungraded but completed assignments) while simultaneously stating in the same report card "Pleasure to have in class".  my repeated attempts to contact this teacher to meet to discuss my kid's non graded assignments and associated D grade went unanswered and i had to get the Asst. Principal involved.  said teacher then quit with 6 weeks left of school.  my kid's 8th grade math teacher was escorted out of the building/suspended/likely fired this past Spring for handing out a wordsearch with words like "raped", "unclothed", "peed", and "Swastika".

not sure if Westland has these kinds of issues...but Deal sure did. i'm so glad to be done there and no, my younger one is not and will not be attending Deal.[/quote]
