[quote=Anonymous]If her complete inability to handle recess is any indication, I’m not surprised there are other issues. While Murch, Janney, Key and other schools in the area were able to do outdoor recess when it was misty (not event rain!!) Lafayette had an absolutely chaotic approach with up to 60 kids crammed into one classroom and refused to go outside. Teachers begged parents to intervene. This was the principal’s response to a parent who complained:

« For example, today we tried to have students outside but within the first 5 minutes there were multiple incidents where students slipped and went to the nurse crying as a result of the injuries sustained.»

I personally find this ridiculous and hard to believe that students were dropping like flies in 5 minutes while other schools had outdoor recess no problem. She has now received multiple complaints and a letter signed by more than 200 families so hopefully she’ll change.

I also know of a horrible bullying incident that I was shocked to hear how was handled - my child was not involved so it’s not my place to share details, but I’ve spoken to families on both sides, and when the families of both the alleged bullies and the victims are equally upset with how it’s handled and claim to have been lied to, my conclusion is there is very likely an issue…[/quote]
