Such a sad school- my daughter has a neighborhood friend who goes there and she is absolutely miserable. Her mom and I have gotten close and she told me the she is trying to apply out- but that the school administration is giving her a really hard time- withholding information and making it nearly impossible- many hoops she has to jump through. The school is scared that there will be a mass exodus of students- so they make it very hard administratively to get out. Also- the current acting HOS is apparently a control freak who instead of acting like a HOS is involved in many petty decisions, including  employee disputes. My friend says- she is a power hungry  annoyance. The teachers act as though they like her, but they don't trust her and fear her.[/quote

This could be my experience a year ago. It was hard, but I got my son out. He is now happy, healthy and engaged in his learning. A complete difference. Also, it is so nice to be in a school with a solid administration. [/quote]

Same. Teachers crush kids so high grades can be hard to get and then it is difficult to get accepted at other schools. We were warned that the administration discourages strong recommendations for kids applying to other schools. Glad we were able to get out. A lot of kids even move to public school just to get away.[/quote]
